I guess being a teenager makes it easier to forget about death and dying, because we're so caught up planning for our future - what we're going to do after graduating from high school and all - and we forget that there's *another* future we need to plan for... :S I feel really guilty about this - forgetting about death and not preparing for it - because I've *had* a recent reminder about it: a few months ago my grandpa had a really bad heart attack and nearly died, and I was sooooooooo scared... but al-Hamdulillaah he's better now... even still, he and my grandma are getting on in their years, and Allah only knows when it will be time for them to go. May Allah grant us all true Islam, Iman, and Ihsan; that we may die upon as-Siraatul Mustaqeem and be of those with the fewest regrets on the Day of Judgement, ameen! Your little sister in Islam, Mouse As-salaamu ‘alaikum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatu,

Subhan’Allah… what a scary reminder… but one that I need! I guess being a teenager makes it easier to forget about death and dying, because we’re so caught up planning for our future - what we’re going to do after graduating from high school and all - and we forget that there’s *another* future we need to plan for… :S

I feel really guilty about this - forgetting about death and not preparing for it - because I’ve *had* a recent reminder about it: a few months ago my grandpa had a really bad heart attack and nearly died, and I was sooooooooo scared… but al-Hamdulillaah he’s better now… even still, he and my grandma are getting on in their years, and Allah only knows when it will be time for them to go.

May Allah grant us all true Islam, Iman, and Ihsan; that we may die upon as-Siraatul Mustaqeem and be of those with the fewest regrets on the Day of Judgement, ameen!

Your little sister in Islam,

With so many reminders the past few weeks and so many contemplations, it is just too hard not to think about it. And like you said, with the new life ready to pop in the world bi'ithnillaah - it is almost impossible not to. May Allaah forgive us and guide our families, aameen I think about my family so much. I spoke with my brother about 2 weeks after my husband's step dad's death and once again I gave him da`wah and we cried together but he still remains afraid and confused... and yeah it is scary because he isn't a child anymore. But we continue trying and remembering that Allaah is the One that Alone gives guidance and if it is written for our families, it will come to pass. wa `alaykum as-salaam ukhti,

aameen

May Allah guide our familes ameen. May Allah grant us an honorable death, and allow us to say the kalimah firmly from our tongues and sincerly from our hearts ameen. wa salaam wa salaam alaykum
