In surah, Al Baqarah Ayat 156, Allah swt says,
2:156
ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَآ أَصَـٰبَتْهُم مُّصِيبَةٌۭ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّآ إِلَيْهِ رَٰجِعُونَ ١٥٦
who, when faced with a disaster, say,
“Surely to Allah we belong and to Him we
will ˹all˺ return.”
Alhamdulillah. We are all familiar with the above verse and its meaning.
Let us take a moment to reflect on its significance. When we say that we belong to Allah (SWT), it means that everything we have—our life, possessions, wealth, family, children, home, and car—all belong to Him. We are merely caretakers for a brief period before returning to Him.
When we acknowledge that we will return to Allah (SWT), it reminds us that after we depart from this world, we leave behind our loved ones, our family, our possessions, and everything we have. We return alone to a dark grave, where only our good deeds and adherence to the teachings of the Quran will be our companions.
We have all witnessed instances where, after the passing of a parent, children fight over the inheritance, sometimes even before the body is buried. We have seen the tragic reality of people going to extreme lengths, even harming parents or loved ones, for wealth. Disputes over property between divorced couples are also common.
The next time we hear of a relative or friend passing away, let it serve as a gentle reminder for ourselves.
When we plan a vacation to our home country, we prepare for weeks or even months in advance. But when the time comes for us to return to Allah (SWT), it will happen without any prior notice. This means we need to be spiritually prepared at all times.
May Allah (SWT) grant us the ability to recite this verse daily, reflect on its meaning, and let it serve as a reminder. Insha’Allah, this will help us answer the questions of the angels, and may our lonely and dark grave become a place of light and peace, a piece of Jannah. Ameen.
