In this brief yet profound reflection we are reminded that certain realities remain constant for every soul. “Bismillahirrahmanirrahim—Know with absolute certainty that everything that is born will die; every new thing will become old, and what is awaited will indeed arrive. Afterwards the body will decay.” From these words emerges a timeless invitation: while our physical forms are subject to birth, aging, and death, we are called to recognize the aspect of ourselves that never ages, never decays, and never perishes before Allah.
The teaching urges us to hold fast to this immutable truth, allowing it to soften attachment to the fleeting world and inspire a deeper connection with the Eternal. By contemplating the certainty of our earthly journey, we can cultivate humility, gratitude, and an unwavering focus on the soul that endures beyond the grave. May we all strive to embody the servant who remains forever youthful in the sight of the Divine, living each moment with purpose and peace.
