  1. After knowledge, action. After life, death. After death, the rising, the reckoning, and either the Fire or the Garden, and gazing on the Face of Allah, insha’Allah.

  2. Making long stories short is the disease of our culture. We want to get to the end, but it is the journey that matters. The entirety of a long journey and its end are contained in the first footstep. The gazing on the Face is in the very beginning, although it happens at the end. Wherever you turn, there is the Face of Allah.

  3. In Jannatul-makwa

    Ahh, the Face of Ar-Rahmaanur-Rahiim it is for me!

    And the houris
    the companions facing each other
    the youth eternal with their jugs of kaafuura
    the fountain
    Al-Musthofa, the anbiyaa and the rasul
    and the Malaaikat
    Assolawatu was-salaam ‘alaihaim

    Ameeeeeeen.
