Short advice
Alhamdulillah all praises are for Allah . We thank Allah for his many favours that he has bestowed upon us, those that we see and even those that we can't see. We as reciters of the kalimah must understand our purpose in life and never forget that this world is a temporary phase. We as intelligent human beings not only but as Muslims, those who have been given the most truthful of all words and on whose shoulders rests the responsibility of delivering the message of Islam to the entire world should remember the status and respect that Allah has given to us and act on the knowledge that we have. Allah has said in the holy Quran translated as, " whoever doesn't judge with what Allah has revealed then they are unbelievers ". Do we understand the seriousness of this verse in the holy quran? This means if you and your neighbour have a dispute and you take your affairs to the court, and the court decides in your favour , yet you know it goes against the law of the quran and really and truly it is your friend who is right then you fall under this verse. We must always develop the attitude of checking every action of ours before we do it. Is it in accordance to the teachings of Islam or not? What does the quran say about this? Will my creator be pleased with me or not? We must constantly think about our life and prepare for our death for we are all unaware of how long we'll live. Life has no guarantees. The only certain thing is death and we see that daily. No matter what religion we belong to everyone agrees that we must die. Lets start making preparations for our death. Be wise brothers and sisters in humanity. We must love and respect each other and stop the slaughtering of innocent people all over the world. I hope and pray that Allah guides us all. Asalaamualaikum
