stay away from false desires fear time of death

Al Qur'an

English Translation of Al-Quran

[6]. Surah Al-An'am [The Cattle]

Ayat 40. Say to them "Think and Tell if Allah's Torment comes upon you, or the Hour comes upon you, would you then call upon any one other than Allah? (Reply) if you are truthful!"

 

Hadith الحديث

English Translation of Hadith

Hazrat Abdullah bin Amr bin Al-Aas (May Allah be pleased with them) said: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "He who desires to be rescued from the fire of Hell and to enter Jannah, should die in a state of complete belief in Allah and the Last Day, and should do unto others what he wishes to be done unto him.'' [Muslim].

Lesson : This Hadith stresses steadfastness in Faith and virtuous deeds and stay away from false desires, because the time of death is not known to anyone. Since one can die at any moment, one should never be unmindful of the obligations of Faith and good deeds so that he embraces death in a state of perfect Faith. This Hadith has the same meanings which are contained in the Verse 102 of the Surat Al-Imran exhorting the Muslims thus: "And die not except in a state of Islam [(as Muslim) with complete submission to Allah].'' Every Muslim should treat people as nicely as he himself desires to be treated by others.
