Ayat 69. "Then, eat of all fruits, and follow the ways of your
Lord made easy (for you)." There comes forth from their bellies, a drink of
varying colour wherein is healing for men. Verily, in this is indeed a sign for
people who think.
Hazrat Abdullah bin
Amr bin Al-Aas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: We were repairing our
thatchy hut when Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) passed by and asked us, "What are you doing?'' We
said, "The thatch had gone weak and we are repairing it.'' He [SAWW](PBUH) said, "I see the sure thing (death) approaching
sooner than this.'' [Tirmidhi Hadith # 2335].
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah An- Nahl Ayat 68. Verily, in this is
indeed a sign for people who think. The
word "Khuss'' means a hut or a house which is made of wood and reed/bamboo and
plastered with mud. The Hadith reminds us to be mindful of death at all times
and be certain that there is nothing nearer to us than it. It also tells us that
we should not engage in those worldly things which are bound to make us forget
about our appointed term in this world.
