The following information has been borrowed from the booklet, Safar-i-âkhirat, by Sayyid Abdulhakîm bin Mustafa Arwâsî ‘rahmatullâhi ’alaih.’ The booklet has not been printed.

Discreet men and women who have îmân and who have reached the age of puberty are termed mukallaf. It is sunna for those who are mukallaf to remember death very often. For, remembering death very frequently causes one to hold fast to the commandments and to avoid the prohibitions. It discourages against commiting harâms. Our Prophet ‘sall-Allâhu ’alaihi wa sallam’ stated: “Remember death very often; it ruins tastes and terminates amusements!”
