Allah ﷻ says in the Qur’an:
كُلُّ مَنْ عَلَيْهَا فَانٍۢ
Everyone upon the earth will perish,
[55:26]
And He ﷻ also says :
كُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ ذَآئِقَةُ ٱلْمَوْتِ ۗ
Every soul shall taste death
[3:185]
Everything in this Dunya has a set term and it will perish, everything in the heavens and the earth, except Allah ﷻ the Ever-living. Allah ﷻ will then recompense the creation for their deeds, whether minor or major, many or few, big or small.
Surely, Allah ﷻ will not deal unjustly with anyone, even the weight of an atom, and this is why He ﷻ said,
وَوُفِّيَتْ كُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ مَّا عَمِلَتْ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَفْعَلُونَ
And every soul will be fully compensated [for] what it did; and He is most knowing of what they do.
[39:70]
Even the Animals will have justice meted out between them, whichever one oppressed another will able to gain recompense, and then they’ll be turned to dust.
And when the disbelievers sees this, he’ll wish to be dust too!
Allah ﷻ mentions in Surah Naba what they’ll say:
يٰلَيتَنِي كُنتُ تُرَابًا
I wish I were dust.
[78:40]
_
Coming back to our ayah in Surah Al-Imran
فَمَن زُحْزِحَ عَنِ النَّارِ وَأُدْخِلَ الْجَنَّةَ فَقَدْ فَازَ
And whoever is moved away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful
Then Allah ﷻ ends the ayah
وَمَا ٱلْحَيَوٰةُ ٱلدُّنْيَآ إِلَّا مَتَٰعُ ٱلْغُرُورِ
And what is the worldly life except enjoyment of deception.
[3:185]
Allah ﷻ has made clear for us that Mankind wishes and chases success in Dunya, but the real success, الفوز الحقيقي is in the Akhirah
_
As Allah ﷻ says in Surah An-Nur
وَتُوبُوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ جَمِيعًا أَيُّهَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ
And turn to Allah in repentance, all of you, O believers, that you might succeed.
[24:31]
He ﷻ also says :
وَلَلدَّارُ الاٌّخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لِّلَّذِينَ يَتَّقُونَ
But the abode of the righteous in the hereafter is far better.
_
And Allah ﷻ ends the Ayah with an amazing thing,
أَفَلاَ تَعْقِلُونَ
Will you not then reason
[6:32]
_
Let us ask ourselves,
What have we really been chasing?
Have we made our goals in Dunya go above that which awaits us in Akhirah?
_
Don’t take this Dunya for a home like the disbelievers do, make use of your blessings wisely
_
May Allah ﷻ grant us goodness in the Dunya and the goodness in Akhirah, and save us from the torment of hellfire.
آمِيْن يَارَبَّ الْعَالَمِينْ
