This World is a Marketplace

This world is a marketplace in which, after a short while, there will be no one remaining.
As night falls, its people will all depart from it.

You must be careful to sell and buy in this market only that
which will be useful to you tomorrow in the market of the hereafter,
for the Assayer [Allah] has a sharp eye [for separating good coin from bad].

Oneness [tawhid] of the Lord of Truth, sincerity [ikhlaas] in working for Him,
this is the currency in circulation over there,
and you have very little of it.


Mehboob-e-Subhani Shaikh Abd Al-Qadir Al-Jilani [may God be pleased with him]
