Ibn Al-Jawzi's Advice to His Son-
"Know, dear son, that days are but hours,
and hours are but breaths,
and every soul is a container,
hence let not any breath pass without any benefit
such as on the Day of Judgement you find an empty container and feel regret!
Be aware of every hour and how it passes, and only spend it in the best possible way;
Do not neglect yourself, but render it accustomed to the noblest and best of actions-
and send to your grave that which will please you when you arrive to it.".

My 'Salaams' to You All.....
Y a s m i n.
"All that is on earth will Perish. But will abide {Forever}
the Face of thy Lord, full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour"
{'Quran'- Surah Al-Rahman-55.26-27 }
Son of Adam! You are nothing but a number of days,
whenever each day passes then part of you has Gone!
{Al-Hasan Al-Basree}
