As I walked passed by cemetery, a thought struck me: "Are we thankful to Allah ﷻ?"
You might be amazed by this statement.
Anyhow, the Full picture of my thought is that Allah ﷻ has given us the existence itself, along with countless blessings. Are we grateful enough?
If we're fulfilling our duties as Muslims, Alhamdulillah, we're on the right path. We Should be grateful that Allah has given us a chance to do these good deeds. If we aren't fulfilling the commandment of Allah ﷻ, this is something of concern but still, we should be thankful to Allah ﷻ cause He has given us a chance to repent and turn to him.
As long as our soul is in our body, we have a chance to turn the wheel of our life towards him. Many of the people who are 6 feet deep may want to return to life so they can do the good deeds that please Allah ﷻ and build a relationship with the ONE who gives life and death. Yet, the time for them ended.
As a concluding note, we should be thankful to Allah in every condition cause He has given us countless blessings. In a split second, He can take everything from us.
So, If we're fulfilling the commandments of Allah ﷻ, Alhamdulillah, we should strive to get more better. If aren't, we should repent thank Him for this chance, and strive for the best.
Peace.
