10, 9,8,7,6, hurry dad (thought in my mind), 5 (blinking started) , 4, 3, 2,1, Yellow
lights (oh we can still cross). RED light. Brakes… STOP… ohh we have to wait
another 3 minutes….!
Individuals going to work and coming back experience
traffic signals constantly. Waiting at
the signal can be so irksome, especially when going back home from work. Red lights preventing us from crossing made me
think about the gates of Jannah.
Some excerpts from a lecture of Noman Ali Khan,
stated that on the Day of Judgment the angels at the gates of Heavens will be
waiting for the successful people to enter with gates wide open. From far away,
the open gates of heavens and green signal to cross them would be the ultimate
success and happiness for a believer. How happy that moment would be. May we
all become such successful people. Ameen.
How
unfortunate that person would be who is stopped from entering Jannah….Red
lights , you can’t go further! I hope we never come to this situation. Ameen. The
gates of Hell are closed. It shall be opened once a person comes extremely near
to it. May Allah (SWT) protect us from it. Ameen.
Next time when we stop at a red light, lets make a
prayer to enter Heaven easily. Lets all try to become the people of achieving
Green Signal and making our way across to Jannah J. May Allah SWT help us to
achieve it. Ameen. Sum Ameen.
Very thoughtful! A new angle to observe. Will surely remember it the next time I wait for the green:)
