Reflect. Our true life has not yet begun.
It is mentioned in the Holy Qura'n, the Most High says:
يَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِي
“Oh, would that I had sent forth [good deeds] for my [true] life” (Al-Fajr:24)
(for my life) لِحَيَاتِي not (in my life) في حَيَاتِي
Our life has not yet begun...!!
Reflect, May Allah bless you,
“My life” here refers to the hereafter, that's the beginning of our true life! A person will wish that he had done good deeds in this world so that he would be among the people of Paradise.
He will wish that he had performed righteous deeds in this worldy life! and that he had not wasted his precious time in sins and transgressions.
May Allah make us among those who prepare well for what is to come, our true life. Aameen.
