What is the real Success….!!!!!!

What is success? If you ask this question to anyone he might tell you that earning more and more money is the symbol of success. Some might say that securing a high ranked job in a multinational company is success or having an expensive sports car is the symbol of success. Buying a beautiful fancy house in an island might be a symbol of success to someone.

But is this really a thing we can call success. Success is a wider concept in Islam. Getting fancy sports cars, buying million dollar houses, earning more and more money is not merely success in Islam. In Islam if you are living a life as Almighty Allah wants you to live then you are successful both in the life here and hereafter no matter you have all those expensive materialistic things are not. If you have nothing and you are living hand to mouth but fulfilling the commands of ALLAH Subhanahuo Wa Ta’aala and following the Sunnah of Holy Prophet P.B.U.H you are successful, and if you are enjoying all the luxuries of the world but your life is far away from the teachings of Islam you are a big fail. On contrary if you are enjoying all the luxuries of the world with your rightful earned money and your are also leading a life according to the teachings if Islam you are a successful person. A person whose is living a miserable life and also away from the teachings of Islam is also unsuccessful. Wealth  and poverty are not the signs of success or failure in Islam.

There will be four type of people in the day of judgement. 1. People who led a luxurious worldly life but now they are poor. 2. People who were poor in the worldly life but will be rewarded by Almighty Allah. 3.People who were rich in the world and they will still be rich on the day of judgment. 4. People who were rich in the world and they will be rich there too.

So, it only depends that what type of life you are leading. You will not be asked that why you did not earn so much money, why you did not get expensive cars and houses but you will be asked about your deeds instead.

Purpose of a Muslims’s life is to please Allah Subhanahuo Wa Ta’aala.
