Shaykh Abdullah Hasan | The Rich in This Life are Poor on the Day of Judgment
Many think that living the luxury life in this world would compensate [for] how they die, [but] this is not true. Thinking that after death comes nothing is absolute ignorance. Life in this dunya as we know is present with evil and good; there is no purpose of both if there is no hereafter.
