Relexation - Now Vs The Hereafter : Inspirational Story as a Parent

 

As a homeschooler, I scheduled Fridays to be one of Tariq’s rest day.😍

.

So that morning he was enjoying his movie time on Apple TV.

.

As he stretches himself while giggling away, Tariq said…

.

…. Mama, I cannot believe that I have this whole day to just relax and enjoy myself!, he said smiling ear to ear 😂

.

…. Are you enjoying your rest day sayang?

.

…..Yes Mama… I definitely do!  Tariq feel so relax and happy right now, Alhamdulillah..! answered Tariq smiling away🥰

.

…. Well, you know Tariq… That is what akhirat will feel like sayang…

.

….. After working so hard in this world…

.

…. doing things that Allah instructed you like - solat, solat on time, fasting, recite Quran, making lots of zikir and selawat….

.

…. doing things to serve His creations like - take care of your manners, guard your mouth, be kind to others, do charity, help others etc

.

…. doing things for yourself so you become a better and stronger Muslim like - attend classes to gain knowledge, swim, horse riding and Archery etc

.

…. continuously guarding yourself from falling into traps of the devil, its helpers and Dajjal….

.

All those hard work you do every single day - day in day out…

.

Then suddenly, the day Allah takes your soul and not return it to your body, you will find yourself in the dark grave.

.

And inshaAllah you die with Husnul Khatimah a blessed death, your soul who has been working so hard in this world… suddenly is just relaxing in the barzakh grave- no more solat, no more fasting, no need to recite Quran, no need to learn anything, no need to work hard…

.

…. Our souls just will be relaxing sayang…. like today… ❤️

.

Best kan?, I said to Tariq 🤩

.

…. Best sangat Mama!!, said Tariq😍

.

But this remember Tariq.., relaxation in the hereafter ada syarat…. Provided you spend your time when you are in the world, working hard to earn Allah’s love and pleasure…

.

…. Only then, Hereafter is going to be an awesome resting place for you

.

…. Just like what you are feeling today…

.

…. A happy and relaxing day after spending earlier days working hard…

.

…. Understand sayang…?, I said

.

…. Tariq understood Mama.., answered Tariq smiling away😍

.

Alhamdulillah ya Rabb for another opportunity to introduce the concept that this World is made for us to earn our place in the Hereafter to Tariq 🥰🥰🥰

.

Alhamdulillah as much as the sand on the beach! ❤️❤️❤️
