Death Terrifies Me Deeply
Assalamu alaikum, I’ve been thinking a lot about death lately, and honestly, it scares me. Before my parents passed away, I didn’t really dwell on it. But hearing about so many tragedies around us really makes it hit home. It’s like nothing truly matters because I could die at any moment, without warning. That uncertainty and lack of control is what gets to me the most. The fact that it can happen to me too, and I’m not exempt, is terrifying. I’m not ready either. I’ve been so down about life that I forget I need to focus on my deen. May Allah keep me on the straight path.
