Reflections on Life and Death

What is the purpose of this short life of ours on earth when we know that one day or the other, death will overtake us and we will have to leave this world? 

When the only thing about the future about which we can be really sure is that we will die one day, why is it that we rarely, if ever, care to think about death?

What happens after we die? When we die, the body begins to disintegrate, but what about the soul—the real 'I'? 

In this book, Maulana Wahiduddin Khan reflects on life and death in the light of the grand Creation Plan of God. It is only in the context of this Plan, he suggests, that life and death can really begin to make sense.
