Ever since we were old enough our parents has told us that one day , we will face death . Everyone dies . That's just the way it is , our parents would tell us when we'd question them why . Though I guess then , we didn't really understand the meaning or the impact of death because we wouldn't really feel the grief of losing someone cause we weren't really attached to anyone ... yet .
Death . Heaven . Hell . Something we are all fully aware of . I guess every religion believes in this ? or most ? I'm not sure . The only thing thats different in every religion is how you achieve in getting to heaven . What you have to do in order to be able to be accepted in heaven .
"Everyone wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die" .
I read that somewhere and that quote is spot on. But why are we all afraid of death? Probably because we don't know what is to happen to us after death .
I know I will die one day. I know that . - but yet I can't imagine myself .. dead . Where will I be ? What state would I be in ? Will I still remember everything .. ? Will I feel lonely ? Because I don't have anyone there ? so many questions that definitely can't be answered by anyone . Which I guess what makes death so scary for me . It's totally an unknown subject to anyone .
Sure , it is briefly explained on where one will go after death in the al-quran . But.. it's not specific , there's still that little bit of doubt .
Everyone thinks their religion is the RIGHT religion . But how do you know for sure ? For example in my religion it is stated that non muslims go straight to hell and has no chance of getting in heaven . Which is a bit over the top don't you think ? What if that person is a GENUINELY a good person , what, just because that person isn't a muslim , that person is sent straight to hell to mingle with rapists and people who are down right evil ?
It isn't their fault they're not a muslim . They weren't born a muslim . If I wasn't born a muslim , I don't think I would have converted . Truthfully speaking because I wouldn't think twice about researching about the religion because I would have thought MY religion that I was born with was the right religion . Like I am thinking now .
*Sigh*
Yes these are the kinda things that goes through my mind half of the time .
Sorry for this boring post .
