Constantly Conscious of Death


Those who were before you used to often consider the nearness of death. One of them would often take water for purity, fulfils the call of nature and perform ablution, fearing that Allah’s Command (death) might come to him while he is not in a state of purity.—Al-Ḥasan al-Baṣrī [d 110H/728CE]
