In the life of this world, human beings are responsible for overcoming
the impulses and appetites of their nafs (selves) andliving their
lives to please Allah. To do this we have been given a very short
lifespan of sixty or seventy years on average. After the life of this
world is over, Allah has created an endless and perfect life for His
slaves who have won Hisfavour. In comparison tothat timeless
existence, life in this world lasts only as long as the blink of an
eye. The faithful slaves are those who have shown steadfastness and
determination in living according to the genuine knowledge of the
unity of Allah without association of partners to Him and in obedience
to Allah and His Messenger. They will obtain a great reward inthe
world to come: the eternal life of the Garden. Doubtless the favour,
mercy and love of our Lord for His slaves are a great joy for them.
