All such times, most of us forget about the derailment we are suffering, forgetting our end and a life that we have to ultimately live forever when we will be resurrected, whether we believe in resurrection or not. But the reality will unfold one day when we will be made to answer our wrongdoings and sins. Judgement Day will be a day when there will be no turning back to make amends.
It would be then the stark reality of truth will unfold which has been conveyed to us by the Divine Scriptures and the prophets and messengers of Allah. But then, it would be too late, except man doomed with his regrets as mentioned in Qur'an at many a place. Some of these are shared below:
- Would that I had not associated anyone with my Lord in His Divinity
- Would that we had obeyed Allah and obeyed the Messenger
- Would that I had stood by the Messenger!
- Would that we were brought back to life, then we would not give the lie to the signs of our Lord
- Would that I had never been given my Record
- Would that I had sent ahead what would be of avail for this life of mine!
We will add more posts specific to Man's Regrets in our future posts. In the meantime, let us steer our lives to the life as prescribed for us by our Lord, and not as being lead us into by the Satan.

May Allāh (سبحانه و تعالى) help us understand Qur'ān and follow the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, which is embodiment of commandments of Allah contained in the Qur'ān. May Allah help us to be like the ones He loves and let our lives be lived helping others and not making others' lives miserable or unlivable. May all our wrong doings, whether intentional or unintentional, be forgiven before the angel of death knocks on our door.
وَمَا عَلَيۡنَاۤ اِلَّا الۡبَلٰغُ الۡمُبِيۡنُ
(36:17) and our duty is no more than to clearly convey the Message.”
That is Our duty is only to convey to you the message that Allah has entrusted us with. Then it is for you to accept it or reject it. We have not been made responsible for making you accept it forcibly, and if you do not accept it, we shall not be seized in consequence of your disbelief, you will yourselves be answerable for your actions on Day of Resurrection.
Reading the Qur'ān should be a daily obligation of a Muslim - Reading it with translation will make it meaningful. But reading its Exegesis / Tafsir will make you understand it fully. It will also help the Muslims to have grasp over social issues and their answers discussed in the Qur'an and other matter related to inter faith so that they are able to discuss issues with non-Muslims with authority based on refences from Qur'an.
May Allah forgive me if my posts ever imply a piety far greater than I possess. I am most in need of guidance.
Note: When we mention God in our posts, we mean One True God, we call Allah in Islam, with no associates. Allah is the Sole Creator of all things, and that Allah is all-powerful and all-knowing. Allah has no offspring, no race, no gender, no body, and is unaffected by the characteristics of human life.
