In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful Mu’adh ibn Jabal, RadhiAllahu Anhu, reported: He said, “O Messenger of Allah, instruct me.” The Messenger of Allah, SallAllahu Alayhi Wa Sallam, said: اعْبُدِ اللَّهَ كَأَنَّكَ تَرَاهُ وَاعْدُدْ نَفْسَكَ فِي الْمَوْتَى وَإِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْبَأْتُكَ بِمَا هُوَ أَمْلَكُ بِكَ مِنْ هَذَا كُلِّهِ Worship Allah as if you can see him and prepare yourself for death.
