What if people could see the state of those ladies and men, who have boasted about themselves throughout their lives, in their graves? For instance, if they could ever see the form those bodies would take after the first 20 to 30 or 50 days; they would have no attachment to this world at all.

There are young girls of a graceful build but they grow old and die in a short while. So do young men. They grow old and die in a very short time. BEING ATTACHED TO THIS WORLD IS IDIOCY. A VERY SMART PERSON TURNS TO THE ACTUAL OWNER OF THIS WORLD. HE TURNS TO THE REAL OWNER OF LOVE AND BEAUTY. THIS WOULD BE THE MOST INTELLIGENT ATTITUDE, INSHA’ALLAH.

THE WORLD IS TEMPORARY. ONE SHOULD NOT FEEL ATTACHED TO THIS WORLD. One must be wise. At first sight, one may feel the urge to love this world but we understand that we are living in a metaphysical world.

The conscience of a person has to be extremely at ease. He will be honest to the end. He will cease to worry about this world, for this world is a lie, not real. We see that this world is only an illusion. There is no point in bothering for this world. But we attain this idea only by thinking in a sincere manner. We do not urge ourselves to think this way, thinking that this world is really alluring.

Getting attached to this world would be an unbecoming attitude towards Allah. Allah does not want us to be attached to this world.

This world is not the real place for us. No one should attempt to get attached to this world. This is a place of trial. One says; "My eyebrows are not nice, my eyes are not nice enough." You are here to be tested, of course some things are supposed to be not enough. Would Almighty Allah make them perfect? One says; "My nose is curved." Your nose would be perfect in the Heaven. It might be curved here. One says; "I am cold." You won't be cold in the Heaven.

Birthdays will be much different in the Heaven than it is in this world. Eighty quadrillionth birthday, ninety quadrillionth birthday will be celebrated. It will not be like the birthdays in this world. That is because time will be endless in the Heaven. I mean a hundred quadrillion years will pass by and it will be like it has never started yet. Endlessness is immense. Yet here in this world seventy years pass by as if they were only seventy hours. Life in this world comes to an end in a moment's time.

This world is not a place to have fun, it is not a funfair. This is a place of trial. If people assume that they will just be having fun here, that they will labor after their cheques and bonds, that they will get married and have weddings and get on with their lives, then Allah does not give them comfort. Allah says; "I created everything as a trial." If they fail to understand, then Allah explains it to them in a way that they will surely understand.

There is nothing in the world in that sense. Heaven is beautiful. This world is created specifically as a place in between heaven and hell.

This is the place of trial. People should forget about being comfortable here, it is not acceptable. This World is a mixture of Heaven and Hell. It is halfway Heaven, halfway Hell, because this is a place of trial. People will be comfortable in the Heaven.

God constantly shows people that this world is transient. Heaven is the real abode. God constantly draws attention to love towards Him.

Troubles and distresses could happen despite all precautions. They are necessary to see the temporary nature of this world and love God even more.

Romanticism is very risky for one’s mental health. Sadness, pessimism and lack of reason follow romanticism.

Wise people move through the narrow passages of life and get ahead in doing good deeds. Those with weak faith get stuck in those narrow passages.

Faith is very precious and treasured. Those who cannot think deeply give up their faith easily.

Those who want to grasp the essence of the religion must look at the Qur’an with attention. There are so many verses related to the weakness of faith.

Is there a problem of jurisprudence or weakness of faith? The weakness of faith. This is the problem of the entire world.

That is how Almighty Allah creates the test. This is the wisdom of Almighty Allah. He shows it as a mere 50 percent to 50 percent. The people of faith makes up 51 percent and above while disbelievers 49 percent and below.

Whoever is conscientious, he sides with Allah. Whoever is unconscientious leaves Allah and pursues his own pleasures. He tends to this transitory world.

One needs to focus all his attention and love on Allah.

Allah creates human beings as cruel and ignorant. That is why people look at others and make errors. They say, “That person has no faith, the other is an imposter and the other is abnormal. In the verse Allah says that the majority of people do not have faith, and those who have faith ascribe partners to Allah. This is the provision of Allah. There is nothing to be astonished with it.

People swerve from the true path by looking at the majority of people. In a verse Allah says, “If you follow the majority of people, they divert you from the true path.” You will not abide by the majority. There is one Allah and you. You will look at the Qur’an.

You have to have a rational outlook. They say, “My friend is so and so.” Your friend appears in your brain. You will have an idea of who is your friend and who is not in the hereafter. YOU WILL UNDERSTAND THAT MANY OF YOUR FRIENDS ARE ZOMBIES, THE LIVING DEAD. For instance they say, “My mother is so, my father is so.” They can also be zombies. Your parents can be zombies. They may be the people onto whom Allah has not blown His spirit.

The number of people may be much below our anticipation. There may not be many people. The majority may be dead. There are so many dead people in this world. THEY LOOK AT THE DEAD AND SHOW SUCH AN UGLY DARING. THE REASON WHY PEOPLE ARE SO FURIOUS IS BECAUSE THEY TAKE THE DEAD AS AN EXAMPLE.

A person who is of sound mind is responsible for his own mind. That is to say, he can not use others as an excuse.
