Assalam o Alaikum, how are you all? I hope everyone is doing well. I am also fine. After a long time, I am here again. Due to some busyness, I was not able to post, but I really missed this platform and the beautiful interaction here.
Today, I am sharing with you a reality that many people try to avoid thinking about, and that reality is death. No matter how much we try to ignore it every soul has to taste death one day, and we all will return to our Creator.
When our loved ones leave us and depart from this world, sometimes we miss them deeply. Their absence creates a silent pain in our hearts that never fully goes away. We remember their voices their smile and the moments we spent with them. But our religion has taught us something very important just remembering them is not enough.
In the hereafter our deceased loved ones wait for our prayers, charity, and good deeds. They benefit from what we send to them, just as it is mentioned in authentic teachings.
The Holy Prophet PBUH said: Send gifts to your deceased ones. People asked, What are the gifts for them? He replied: Charity and prayers (Sadaqah and Dua).
This beautiful teaching shows us that even after death, the connection of love and care between us and our loved ones does not end. It continues through prayers, charity, and good intentions.
Because of this, today I also arranged a dinner since it is Friday night. In our belief, Friday night is a special time when we remember our departed loved ones and send prayers for them. So I dedicated this meal as a small gift for them with sincere intention.
I actually wanted to cook something at home, but I was very busy today with the children, so I ordered rice and kebab from a restaurant instead. Even though it was simple, my intention was pure, and I made sure to remember my loved ones in my heart.
After having dinner with the children, I made many prayers for those deceased loved ones who are always in our memories. I prayed that Allah grants them peace, mercy, and a high place in Jannah. I also wished that they could feel our love and know that we have not forgotten them.
Those who leave this world cannot perform any good deeds for themselves anymore. They depend on the living to send them rewards through prayers and charity. That is why it becomes our responsibility to remember them and help them through small but meaningful acts of kindness.
Even a simple prayer, a small charity, or a sincere thought can become a great gift for them in the hereafter. Love does not end with death it continues through remembrance and good deeds.
