Your Deeds Alone Are Faithful..into the Depths of the Tomb!{Mawlana Jalal al-Din al-Rumi}

As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu 


 

Your Deeds Alone Are Faithful

In this world you have three companions:
one is faithful,
the others are treacherous.
 
The latter are friends and possessions;
the faithful one is excellence in deeds.
Your wealth won't come with you out of your Palace;
your friend will come,
but only as far as the grave.
 
When the day of doom comes to meet you,
your friend will say;
 "I've come this far, but no farther. I will stand a while at your grave."
 
Your deeds alone are faithful:
 make them your refuge,
for they alone will accompany you into the depths of the tomb.
 

Mawlana Jalal al-Din al-Rumi.
