[size=7][size=9][size=9][size=12][size=16]Do good, and leave behind you a monument of virtue that the storms of
time can never destroy. Write your name in kindness, love, and mercy
on the hearts of thousands you come in contact with year by year, and
you will never be forgotten. Your name and your good deeds will shine
as the stars of heaven.

Once the Prophet of God, Muhammed (p.b.u.h) was sitting amidst his
Sahaba (companions) in the mosque when all of a sudden he said "Today
I shall narrate a story to you all which will reveal three riddles
for all of you to solve". This hushed the crowd and they all listened
to what the Prophet had to say.

Mohammed (p.b.u.h) continued by saying that once a man got to know
that the days in his life was numbered and very soon he would be
confronted with death. With this knowledge he feared his loneliness
in the grave and went searching for true friends who would help and
accompany him.

He knocked on the door of his first friend and asked whether he would
help. To this the friend said, "of course, what are we here for." But
then the man went on to say that he had very few days to live after
which he required help. As soon as he uttered this statement, the
friend said "I am sorry but when death does us apart, there is
nothing we can do for you but buy you a place in the graveyard and
some cloth (Kafan) to cover your dead body." Grieved but looking
forward to his next friend, the man moved on.

On the second door, when he came face to face with his friend, and
after narrating the entire story of his death and asked for help, the
same answer was his fate again. The second friend said "I have been
there with you all your life and can help you here. But there's
nothing I can do for you after you die except take your corpse to the
graveyard and bury you."

Lost in agony and despair, he headed for the third friend, very sure
that he would receive the same answer but there was a tinge of hope
left. When he confronted the third friend, and told him that he
required help, the friend eagerly volunteered to help. But the man
continued to say that I need help after I die. To which the third
friend replied, "Do not worry, my dear friend! I shall accompany you
to the grave, be there with you in the grave, even when the angels
arrive for questioning (Munkar-o-Nakeer), then assist you on the Pul-
e-Sirat (bridge) and then lead you to heaven. "To this the man heaved
a sigh of relief and then passed away in peace."

The Prophet (p.b.u.h) then turned and asked his companions if anybody
could identify the three friends and the man. When the prevailing
silence didn't dissolve, the Prophet continued to say, "The man in
the anecdote is any other human being." The first friend
is "money/wealth", things that help us only in life and not after we
die.

The second family/friend were the "children/sons and daughters", we
strive for them all our life and all they give us is a shoulder to
the grave.

And the third and most important friend is "Aamal (deeds)". Who
accompany us all the way through.

Moral: Do not strive for materialistic values that will give you
nothing and help you in no way in your eternal life. But work and
pray and ask forgiveness from God for only the good deeds assist
mankind where every other thing loses value in the life hereafter!
