Hazrat Mufti Ebrahim Salejee (Daamat Barakaatuhu) mentioned:
In contemporary times people become obsessed with some hobby or past time. Some get into sport, others into politics and the list goes on. Their obsession becomes such that whenever they get a chance then this is their topic of discussion.
As believers we are exhorted to regularly reflect on the Aakhirat (Hereafter) as it is a fundamental aspect of our faith. Pondering over the Aakhirat was a common feature in the lives of our pious predecessors. But sadly, today sometimes days or even weeks pass without our mind going in that direction for even a single moment.
