37. Sudden Death


In a hadith by At-Tabarani, RasulAllah sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said, “One of the signs of the day of judgement is that sudden death would occur frequently.” Sudden death means they are not accidents. There is some internal reason for these deaths.

Nowadays, so many people die from heart attacks and strokes. These things may have happened in the past, but rarely. These are diseases of modern society; it is an epidemic now. Our lifestyle now is very bad – we are a very lazy people. We were in offices and have a very stationary lifestyle. Before, the people were very active. They got their exercise done during their daily work. Now we have to incorporate exercise in our lives by recreation, to make up for our lack of activity. One of the biggest businesses in the US is the fitness business, because of the lifestyle of the people. In the past, people were naturally strong. They didn’t have cars and airplanes.
