Where is your goal, world or hereafter? Two kinds of goal
that completely different not only in the letter arrangement but also how to
obtain it. One side we were born as Allah’s creatures and of course Allah gave
us some duty and guideline that we have to fulfilled during our life time but
in other side we live in the world that filled with many appetites and
obviously we will have many needs on our life and we need to obtain all of our
needs.
on Al-Qur’an Allah said:
وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ
“And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.” (Adz dzaariaat 56)
وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ
“And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.” (Adz dzaariaat 56)
this ayat means that all of us (mankind) have an obligation to worship
into Allah because we were born in this world with that objective. We are Allah’s
creature, Allah that made us and Allah also our destination. If we see from
that ayat our obligation in this world is only worship and worship to Allah
nothing else. But don’t think that worship is only do sholat, fasting, hajj but
study is also a kind of worship because of that is Allah’s command also but you
have to intent it as a worship to Allah.
But the fact now is many people complacent with the enjoyment of the
world and forget with our life after the death. Most of us only concern on how
to get a better future, get much money, get a prestige career etc and their
mind only filled with how to obtain it even they can use a bad way to reach it.
And that thing seems getting closer with us, introspect yourself how many hours
do you use for reach your dream in this world and how many hours that you use
to reach your dream in hereafter. I believe that the proportion for your future
in this world much more rather than for your future in the hereafter.
It will be very hard for us to divide our time equitably between world
and here after but at least you have to try, and here I have some tips for you
to reach your happiness in the world and hereafter. First is alert to all that is forbidden to us, then be grateful with what God has given to us, the
third is away from peevish attitude toward the fate, always do
resignation and prayer and the last is keep your good relation with your
neighbour.
