A pertinent message I received today, along with the attached picture….

…

These sheets of cloths are shrouds (Kafan) that people used to bring to Makkah to wash with Zamzam, and then leave it to dry in the sun.
It’s seldom practised today, but we’ve heard many stories of how back in time people used to acquire their own
shroud/kafan,
store it in a particular place and emphasize it often to their family!

It’s a reminder that we all have to live our best, prepare for a time when we will no longer be here, and hope to achieve a Husn al-Khatima –
a good end at the time of death. Ameen.
