Are you convinced that you are responsible for your life? That you will be in the grave alone? That you will bear your share of the consequences of your actions and no one else? That you will be questioned by your Lord and no one else?
No one else will bear the consequences of your actions on your behalf, except you.
Therefore, take charge of your life before...
Your old age
You fall sick
You become poor
You are busy
Your death
In a hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (may Allah grant him peace and blessings) said to a man while he was advising him:
"Take advantage of five matters before five other matters: your youth, before you become old; and your health, before you fall sick; and your richness, before you become poor; and your free time before you become busy; and your life, before your death." (From Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him. Reported in the mustadrak of Al-Haakim, Musnad Imam Ahmad, and others, with an authentic chain of narration.)
