Just consider of how many times a day you have to force yourself to remember something. Already by the time you get out of bed, there are many issues with which you have to keep your mind occupied. What if, though, you had actually forgotten about something greatly more important than anything else in your daily life? ...
This “something” has to do with the reason of your existence in this world. Even believers may fail to remember this subject sufficiently because man is forgetful. Engrossed in everyday routines, unless he wills otherwise, he may easily become distracted from the real issues to which he actually needs to pay attention. He may easily forget that Allah watches him at every moment, that He listens to him, and that he will one day have to give an account of his actions to Allah. He may well forget about the certainty of death, the grave, Paradise and Hell, that nothing happens other than that which is Allah’s Will, and that there is ultimately a reason for everything.
The purpose of this book is to remind you of these basic facts that should never be forgotten.
