The Qur\u2019an says:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>&#8220;And [mention] when your Lord took from the children of Adam \u2014 from their loins \u2014 their descendants and made them testify concerning themselves, [saying to them], \u2018Am I not your Lord?\u2019 They said, \u2018Yes, we have testified.\u2019&#8221;<\/strong><br>(Qur\u2019an 7:172)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">From that unseen moment, man enters the world through birth, passing through stages of weakness, strength, and eventual decline. Each moment of life is a test \u2014 an opportunity to recognize the truth, submit to the Creator, and live with purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">But death is not the end. It is merely a door to the next phase of the journey: <strong>the Barzakh (the life of the grave)<\/strong>, followed by <strong>resurrection<\/strong>, <strong>judgment<\/strong>, and then either eternal reward or punishment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Qur\u2019an repeatedly reminds us that this life is short and deceptive, while the Hereafter is the true home:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>&#8220;Indeed, the Hereafter is better and more lasting.&#8221;<\/strong><br>(Qur\u2019an 87:17)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This journey \u2014 from the unseen, through this world, and into eternity \u2014 is not without guidance. The Qur\u2019an is that divine map, pointing the way back to the One who created us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">So the question is:<br><strong>Will we take the journey blindly, or walk it with the light of truth in hand?<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Qur\u2019an presents a profound and comprehensive view of the human journey \u2014 a journey that begin&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":223,"parent":280,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true},"media_sectors":[2],"class_list":["post-61","media_lib","type-media_lib","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","media_sectors-starting-story"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.remind-by-quran.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media_lib\/61","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.remind-by-quran.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media_lib"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.remind-by-quran.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/media_lib"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.remind-by-quran.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media_lib\/280"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.remind-by-quran.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/223"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.remind-by-quran.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=61"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"media_sectors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.remind-by-quran.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media_sectors?post=61"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
