To Have Faith Before Death

“And when they saw Our Punishment they said: 'We now believe in none but Allah. We deny those we used to associate with Him.' But their professing the Faith when they (actually) saw Our Punishment was not going to profit them. (Such has been) God's way of dealing with His servants (From the most ancient times). And even thus did the rejecters of God perish (utterly)!”

Surah Ghafir, 40, Ayat: 84-85.

“Are they waiting for the angels or your Lord Himself to come down to them, or for a sign of His to be given them? On the day when such a sign is given them, faith shall not avail the soul which had no faith before or while believing, did no good works. Say: 'Wait if you will, we too are waiting.'”

But as he was drowning he cried: 'Now I believe that there is no god save the God in whom the Children of lsrael believe. To Him I give up myself.' (Allah said): 'Now (you believe)! But before this you disobeyed and were a wrongdoer. We shall save you in your body this day, so that you may become a sign to all posterity: for most men give no heed to Our signs.'”

Surah Yunus, 10, Ayat: 90-92.

“Until when death comes to a wrongdoer, he will say: 'Lord, let me go back, _ that I may do good works in the world I have left behind.' Never! It is only a word which he will speak. Behind them there shall stand a barrier till the Day of Resurrection.”
