If u were about to die what would be your last message to us?

THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD'S LAST SERMON



(This Sermon was delivered on the Ninth Day of Dhul

Hijjah 10 A.H in the Uranah Valley of mount Arafat )



"O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I don't know whether,

after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore

listen to what I am saying to you carefully and TAKE THIS WORDS

TO THOSE WHO COULD NOT BE PRESENT HERE TODAY.



O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as

Sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a

sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful

owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that

you will indeed meet your LORD, and that HE will indeed reckon

your deeds. ALLAH has forbidden you to take usury (Interest),

therefore all interest obligation shall henceforth be waived...



Beware of Satan, for your safety of your religion. He has lost

all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big

things, so beware of following him in small things.



O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regard to

your women, but they also have right over you. If they abide by

your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed

in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for

they are your partners and comitted helpers. And it is your right

that they do not make friends with any one of whom you do not

approve, as well as never to commit adultery.



O People, listen to me in earnest, whorship ALLAH, say your five

daily prayers (Salah), fast during the month of Ramadhan, and give

your wealth in Zakat. Perform Hajj if you can afford to. You know

that every Muslim is the brother of another Muslim. YOU ARE ALL

EQUAL. NOBODY HAS SUPERIORITY OVER OTHER EXCEPT BY PIETY AND GOOD

ACTION.



Remember, one day you will appear before ALLAH and answer for your

deeds. So beware, do not astray from the path of righteousness

after I am gone.



O People, NO PROPHET OR APOSTLE WILL COME AFTER ME AND NO NEW

FAITH WILL BE BORN. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand

my words which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the

QUR'AN and my example, the SUNNAH and if you follow these you will

never go astray.



All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and

those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words

better than those who listen to me direcly. BE MY WITNESS O ALLAH

THAT I HAVE CONVEYED YOUR MESSAGE TO YOUR PEOPLE."If u were about to die what would be your last message to us?
I would probably say 'please pray for me I'M SCARED!!!'

And then my last words: ?? ?????? ????? ?????? ????????? ??????? ??????
I've read that Oscar Wilde's last words were 'Either the curtains go or I go.' I've always liked that one.If u were about to die what would be your last message to us?
Come on in, the water's fine.
Aleister Crowley's last words were "I am perplexed" and that would be a fitting epitaph for me. The longer I live the more life confuses me.If u were about to die what would be your last message to us?
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
Whatever it is, I doubt it would be that long and take so long to read.



Sorry.
The one I saw now.



Live And Let Live.
I am neither a prophet nor a preacher, but if I could leave one message with people everywhere it would be this:

Love one another. Neither judge nor hate your fellow human beings. Respect all creatures. Cherish the earth, the seas and the sky. Live so that when you die this planet and everything in it will be at least as beautiful as it was the day you were born.
