Your answer about death was interesting. My answer is “Yes.” If we knew when we would die, life would be different. You would try to make every minute, every second productive. You could easily give up things that are unnecessary and waste your time because you would know how much time you have left and would try to make the most of it.
Let me give you a small example of why:
In May, my grandmother suddenly became very ill and she was in the resuscitation. She stayed there for about a week. Every day, from morning to night, we prayed and hoped she would survive. It happened so suddenly that we were completely unprepared. In just one week, our home felt like it had turned upside down.
Yes, death is inevitable. We all know we will die one day. But for some reason, I felt my grandmother didn’t deserve to die yet, and we didn’t know what to do. Our days were spent at the hospital, waiting just to see her even for a moment.
One day, while my dad was talking to my aunt, he said, “We’ve done everything we can. Instead of letting her suffer here, it’s better to take her home. If something happens, it will be a problem to transport her to Kazakhstan.” When I heard this, I was in shock and couldn’t stop crying. In my mind, I thought, “This can’t be true, my grandmother shouldn’t have died yet.” I couldn’t imagine a life where I would never see her again.
They went to the hospital, and the doctor mentioned a single injection that could help, but it was 50/50. He asked my dad to sign a consent form. Do you understand how difficult this decision was? One injection could either save my grandmother’s life or end it!
If we had known when she would die, we wouldn’t have been in such a tough situation, and making a decision would’ve been easier. My dad signed the consent form, and all that was left was to pray and wait. A lot of time passed, and the doctors didn’t come out. We all started to fear the worst.
Do you know what I regretted most during that time? Not spending enough time with my grandmother, not talking to her more, not hugging her often. I always thought I had more time. I kept putting things off, telling myself, “I’ll talk to her later.” It was as if I thought my grandmother would never die.
But do you know what happened? 🥹By Allah’s miracle, my grandmother survived. She stayed in the resuscitation for two more days and was then moved to a regular ward. Can you imagine? The doctors said there was no hope, but Allah showed His miracle. She stayed in the hospital for about two more weeks and finally went home.
Alhamdulillah, she’s alive and well now. From that day on, I’ve tried to spend more time with her. Every day, I dedicate at least two hours to her. We watch TV shows together, talk, and laugh as we reminisce about past events.
I thank Allah for giving me another chance.
Always make time for your loved ones. They might suddenly be gone tomorrow. Unfortunately, we don’t know when they will pass away, so we must cherish every moment. So we don't know when we die, spend every moment of life with a close person)))
