Would you like to know what
happens when you sleep??

Allah says in the Quran:
It is Allah that takes the souls (of men) at death and those that die not
(He takes) during their sleep:

those on whom He has passed the decree of death, He keeps back (from
returning to life),but the rest He sends (to their bodies) for a term
appointed.Verily in this are Signs for those who reflect.

Quran, Chapter 39 verse 42
This means: every time you sleep, Allah takes your
souls,amongst many other souls he takes during sleeping. Then Allah
decides who is going to be given another chance. For those who are
blessed with another chance, Allah will permit their souls to go back
to their bodies, the rest he keeps back from returning to life i.e.they
die. This means: each time you go to bed you should never be sure
you will get up again, you ONLY have 50% chance for coming
back to life. This means: each time you go to bed you should be
prepared for your hereafter. This means: when you wake up the next
day you should appreciate how lucky (blessed) you
are. And say "Blessed be the one who returned my soul to my body, and
granted me
another chance". This is what the prophet PBUH used to say when
he wakes up. This means: when you wake up the next day you should
make sure you utilize the new day as much as you can before sleep
time comes,in case the new day you are living is the last
chance you are given. This means: you should try to make sure you recite
Sura AL-MULK (chapter67) before sleeping, because the prophet
PBUH promised that one who reads this sura before sleeping is
saved from the punishment of the grave.May Allah forgive
us all and bless us with a happy life in this dunya and the
hereafter.

we should always be thankful for all bounties we have been given, saying alhamdullilah is very difficult for most people but we should always remind ourselves.
