It comes with a price. And the price is big. So are the rewards.

But people can hardly see how big the rewards are.

Those who wanted to see how big they are, must see it with their heart.

Come on guys. Can we please snap out of it.

Dan orang-orang yang bertaqwa kepada Tuhan mereka akan dibawa ke Syurga dengan berpasuk-pasukan, sehingga apabila mereka sampai ke Syurga yang pintu-pintunya sedia terbuka dan penjaga-penjaganya mengalu-alukan mereka dengan kata-kata:” Salam sejahtera kepada kamu, berbahagialah kamu, maka silalah masuk ke dalam Syurga ini dengan keadaan tinggal kekal di dalamnya” (mereka pun masuk) (Az-Zumar: 73)
Diriwayatkan dalam shahihayn, dari Abu Hurayrah radhiyaLlahu ‘anhu, Allah Ta’ala berfirman, “Sungguh aku telah mempersiapkan bagi hamba-hambaku yang shalih apa yang belum pernah dilihat oleh mata, tidak pernah didengar oleh telinga, dan tidak pernah terbersit dalam hati manusia. Bacalah firman Allah,

“Tak seorangpun mengetahui berbagai nikmat yang menanti, yang indah dipandang sebagai balasan bagi mereka, atas apa yang mereka kerjakan.” (Q.S As-Sajdah ayat 17)

How to unattached the world from your heart:

1. Remember Death
2. Compare with the Rewards that Allah has mentioned in the Quran

p.s: not saying Droid is bad though. it’s just one of the nikmat. can be boon or bane depending on where we put it.

p.p.s: kindly replace the Droid with anything that you think are very attractive. kalau rasa2 malas nak beramal, just imagine getting that thing at the end of the amal. and yeah you can also times by 102131940191 or infinity if you want.

Sadly, this is the end of the Selfish boy story. no part 3. Time to move.
