In Surah Al Kahf, Allah Most High reminds us again that the everlasting abode is the Aakhirah (Hereafter).
ٱلْمَالُ وَٱلْبَنُونَ زِينَةُ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَاوَٱلْبَـٰقِيَـٰتُ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتُ خَيْرٌ عِندَ رَبِّكَ ثَوَابًا وَخَيْرٌ أَمَلًا
Wealth and children are [but] adornment of the worldly life. But the enduring good deeds are better to your Lord for reward and better for [one's] hope. [Quran, al-Kahf 18:46]
If we are truly certain about this, then we don't worry ourselves with this fleeting dunya, accumulating wealth and trying to impress people, instead we will rush to good deeds as only our deeds will accompany us into our graves.
Sometimes we forget that in this dunya that we will face trials, left, right, and center. But the Quran will help us face it with patience and gratitude.
Alhamdulillah (All praise and thanks to Allah) for the Qur'an, a guidance for the believers and those conscious of Allah. [Quran, Al-Baqarah 2:1-2]
So let's make a habit of reading a portion of the Quran everyday and thank Allah for this gift of the Quran by following its advice and guidance.
رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِنَا مِن لَّدُنكَ رَحْمَةً وَهَيِّئْ لَنَا مِنْ أَمْرِنَا رَشَدًا
Our Lord, grant us from Yourself mercy and prepare for us from our affair right guidance. Ameen.
