Work For The Hereafter As If You Are Going to Die Tomorrow
(Because its a fact that we can die anytime- Even today!)
The
servant, when he turns away from Allah and becomes preoccupied with sins (in
this world), he loses opportunities to earn a good true life (in the
hereafter). He will see the consequence of losing this opportunity on the Day
when
he will say:
Oh, I wish I had sent ahead [some good deeds]
for my
life [i.e. true, everlasting life in the Hereafter]. So on that Day none will
punish as He (Allah) will punish. [Quran 89:24-25]
A person who is traveling the path towards success
and believes in life after death must hasten and rush towards doing works for
the hereafter. Whenever he is presented with an opportunity to do a task for
the next world, he must hurry to carry it out without wasting any time. Take
precedence and hurry to do good deeds before you are occupied by other than it.
If a person spends his entire day performing good deeds, then he does not have
any
time left to carry out bad deeds.
We must hurry towards any deed that will ensure our
success in the hereafter
So lets do good deeds
now before Allah takes away our chance for repentance and an opportunity to do
good deeds to earn ourselves a good life in the Hereafter

Abu Mas'ud 'Uqba ibn 'Amr al-Ansari al-Badri reported that the Messenger of
Allah, (PBUH), said, "Anyone who shows the way to something good has the same
reward as the person who does it." [Muslim] E.g. if you encourage someone
to go for Salah, or pay Zakat and the person actually goes ahead and prays or
pays Zakat, Allah will reward him for the good deeds and at the same time give
you (the one that encouraged them to do good) an equal reward as he has given
them- without decreasing what he gave them. So Encourage Other To Do Good
And Refrain From Bad Deeds
