1. Our Knowledge: Wasted by not taking action with it.
2. Our Actions: Wasted by committing them without sincerity.
3. Our Wealth: Wasted by using on things that will not bring us ajr (reward from Allah). We waste our money, our status, our authority, on things which have no benefit in this life or in akhirah (hereafter).
4. Our Hearts: Wasted because they are empty from the love of Allah, and the feeling of longing to go to Him, and a feeling of peace and contentment. In it's place, our hearts are filled with something or someone
else.
5. Our Bodies: Wasted because we don't use them in ibadah (worship) and service of Allah.
6. Our Love: Our emotional love is misdirected, not towards Allah, but towards something / someone else.
7. Our Time: Wasted, not used properly, to compensate for that which has passed, by doing what is righteous to make up for past deeds.
8. Our Intellect: Wasted on things that are not beneficial, that are detrimental to society and the individual, not in contemplation or reflection.
9. Our Service: Wasted in service of someone who will not bring us closer to Allah, or benefit in dunyaa(this world).
10. Our Dhikr (Remembrance of Allah): Wasted, because it does not touch us or our hearts.

Think About "DEATH".
D E A T H
We know very well that everyone has a fixed period of life. We do not live longer or shorter than this fixed period of life. Soon we will be transferred from this worldly life to the GRAVES. Where we will be alone with our deeds only. If they are good, we will be in a state of well being, and if they are not, we will be in torment until the Day of Resurrection. The DAY, when records and ledgers of deeds will be unveiled. At that time, the scales will be placed and people’s deeds will be measured. Whoever had done an atom’s weight of good shall see it, and whoever had done an atom’s weight of evil shall see it.
On that DAY, the sun will descend upon people until it is only a mile away, People will be sweating according to their deeds. Some will sweat up to their ankles, some up to their knees, some up to their waists, and some will be submerged in sweat completely. On that DAY a bridge extended over Hell will be set over the Infernal Fire. It will be thinner than a strand of hair and sharper than a sword. Trust and ties of kinship will be sent forth and will stand on both sides, right and left. People will pass on it according to their deeds. Some will pass like lighting, some will pass crawling and some will be in between the fast and the slow. On that DAY people will be divided into two groups, one in Paradise and others in the Hell Fire.
We still have time to re-check our faith & belief since it is duty of each and every one of us to find out truth and follow it. We must check the authenticity of what we are following. Are we following the true religion or we just following the elders and religious leaders with closed eyes. We should take advantage of the time we have on Earth as an opportunity to prepare ourselves for death and all that comes after it. Allah has told us in the Holy Quran how we can decrease the horrors that come after death.
The only true religion on earth is ISLAM. Everyone has its own choice to find out truth but one must not decide anything just seeing the followers only. Rather one must study sacred scripture to find out truth. ISLAM is for the whole mankind so whoever accept it and follow it will get success. Accepting is not enough till we follow it in true spirit.
Let us ask our creator O’ Allah, Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, we ask You for the guidance and to make us witness that You are ALLAH and that there is no true deity but You Alone, the Eternal. The One who begets not, nor was begotten and that there is none co-equal or comparable unto to You; You have the Majesty and Bounty, You are the Ever-Living, the Eternal Guardian. We ask You true repentance for the bad we have done. Ease for us the horrors of that Day and make us among the happy ones and join us with the righteous, O Allah, the Sustainer of all that exists show us the right path and guide us towards accepting and following the true religion ISLAM………..Ameen.
