Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

ٱقْتَرَبَ لِلنَّاسِ حِسَابُهُمْ وَهُمْ فِى غَفْلَةٍ مُّعْرِضُونَ

(Qur’ān 21:01) 

‘‘Iqtaraba Li n-nāsi Ĥisābuhum Wa Hum Fī Ghaflatin Mu’ridūn’, 

‘’[The time of] their account has approached for the people, while they are in heedlessness turning away.’’ Sadaqa Llāhu l-‘aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying the time of questioning for people is approaching. People are running away in heedlessness. They are running away from the truth. They are running away from the approaching account. They are not even aware of the account. People are in heedlessness.

Many people are like this. Many people follow their egos and stay away from the truth. They don’t accept the truth. However, the truth is something that will occur to everyone one day. There is no escape. No matter how heedless or alert you are, everyone will go there.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will bring everyone to account. Those who will give a good account will be happy. They will reach peace and be saved. Those who are heedless will wake up then. People are asleep. They will wake up when they die. Everyone is in the sleep of heedlessness. When death comes, truth will show itself. And those who are heedless, who don’t want to wake up in this world will wake up there.

But it will be too late for most people, because people are doing everything they can in order to go into more heedlessness and not to wake up in this world. It is not enough, so they are using other things. They are taking this and that, useless and harmful things to go into more heedlessness. People strive not to wake up, to be more drunk, to lose their minds, to become stupid.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave mind to mankind between all the other creatures. But mankind who is on the highest level with this mind, mankind who doesn’t realize this blessing is rejecting it. They are striving to lose their minds and to be stupid. May Allah جل جلاله protect us. The mind is a blessing. And people who use their minds will be saved. Those who are heedless will not be saved. May Allah جل جلاله protect us. May Allah جل جلاله give us alertness. 

May we do everything by seeing it is good and not in heedlessness insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
