..and remember your grave

I truly am amazed with this hadith below. Should you have the time to think for a moment, take a break. SubhanAllah.

From Sahl ibn Aa'd who said that Allâh's Messenger saw said: "Jibreel came to me and said: O Muhammad! Live as you will for you must certainly die; love whom you will since you must certainly leave him; act as you will since you shall certainly be given due reward for it; know that the believers eminence is his standing in prayer during the night, and his honour is having sufficiency without dependency upon the people." Reported by al-Hakim

How I have lived and going to live?
With whom do I associate?
What do I do each and everyday?
How do I spend my time?
Do I love everyone for the sake of Allah or just for the sake of my nafs??
Do I really can stand Hellfire?[If not,why am i doing sinss?]


Just some thoughts, along with the amazement of the importance placed on the qiamullail [night prayers]
