Ali ibn Abee Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say,
“Certainly this life has begun traveling away, and the hereafter has begun traveling forward, and each has its children. So be from the children of the hereafter, and don’t be from the children of this life. For indeed today there is action with no account, and tomorrow there will be account with no action.”
Alhamdulillah! A real gem of wisdom and truth.
Ya Haqq!
Yes, and may we be from the children of the hereafter.
maybe put the reference to the quote so the readers can be confident with its authenticity.
I got this quote from the Purification of the Soul CD set by Suhaib Webb, I don’t recall him mentioning the reference. Wa Allahu ta ala alim.
