Time And Tide Waits For No Man.

Allaah تعالى says: 

{It will be, on the Day they see it (the Last Hour), as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.} [Surah al-Nazi`aat (79): 46]

Time is a great teacher and mentor of man. In the bosom of time are contained tremendous accounts of nations’ rise and fall, which can be of great significance and value for people living now on earth. This planet has seen hundreds of nations in the past, rising slowly towards eminence, consolidating their power for some time and then degenerating and falling into oblivion. How many nations took shape, reached their climax and then vanished without a trace! Thousands built big empires by means of massive military campaigns and conquests. But at last, all drowned in the ocean of time.


Dozens of civilizations saw the light of day and, after touching the summit of success and fame, decayed and were annihilated. Billions and Billions of human beings were born into this world and after having passed through the stages of adolescence, youth, and old age, returned to dust.
