The most revolutionary thing that the Prophet

was brought to this world was that he was able to shift the mindset of a people who did not believe in any life after death whatsoever

and turn it into a mindset in which everything that they hoped for, everything that they longed for, was the eternal life beyond that grief.

In the name of Allah, I want you to imagine having grown up your entire life believing in the name of Allah,

once we die and we become sticks and bones, do we ever return back, do we ever really see anything after that

and to take that type of mindset and to make it so that all you're thinking about is that which comes after the grave

and a jinnah that Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala has promised you a paradise that is more expansive than the heavens and the earth or iddah than wa taqeen

and that has been promised for people of God, consciousness.

Now Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, this idea of shifting, what life actually is, is something that completely revolutionized even the language

that the Arabs would use around the Prophet ﷺ.

In fact, even in the Qur'an itself, when Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala mentions that on the Day of Judgment, as a person starts to see the initiation of it,

they would say, Ya Leytani, kaddum tu li Hayati.

Oh, how I wish I would have prepared for my life, Hayati.

If you say to anyone, my life, they're going to assume that you're talking about Hayati dunya, the life of this world.

But Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala is saying that on the Day of Judgment, once the initiation of the Day of Judgment begins,

a person will refer to that which is to come as their life, as if that which preceded it was not actually life.

And the Prophet ﷺ turned that into an optimism.

When he said, Allahumma na'isha illa aishu al-akhira, O Allah, there is no life except for the life of the hereafter.

Not that the life of the hereafter is greater than this life.

That in the true sense of the word, there is no life except for the life of the hereafter.

And so I was intrigued Subhanahu wa Ta'ala by the word tomorrow, and I'll tell you exactly why.
