Would you like to know what happens when you sleep???
Allah (swt) says in the Quran:
It is Allah (swt) that takes the souls (of men) at
death; and those that die not (He takes) during their
sleep: those on whom He has passed the decree of
death,He keeps back (from returning to life),
but the rest He sends (to their bodies) for aterm
appointed. Verily in this are Signs for thosewho
reflect. Quran, Chapter 39 verse 42
This means: every time you sleep, Allah (swt) takes your souls, amongst
many other souls he takes during sleeping. Then Allah (swt) decides who is going to begiven another chance.
For those who are blessed with another chance, Allah (swt) will permit their souls to go back to their bodies, the rest he keeps back from returning to life
i.e. they die.
Each time you go to bed you should never be
sure you will get up again, you ONLY
have 50% chance for coming back to life.
Whenever you go to bed you should be
prepared for your Hereafter.
This means: when you wake up the next day you should
appreciate how lucky (blessed) you are. And say
"Blessed be the one who returned my soul to my body,
and granted me another chance". This is what the Prophet (PBUH) used to say whenhe woke up the next day.
When you wake up the next day you should make sure you utilize the new day as much as you can before sleep time comes, in case the new day you are living is the last chance you are given.
This means: you should try to make sure you recite Surah AL-MULK (chapter 67) before sleeping, because the Prophet (SAW) promised that one who reads this surah before sleeping is saved from the punishment of the grave.
May Allah (swt) forgive us all and bless us with a happy life in this
dunya and the Hereafter.
