05 - Hereafter - Notes
Proof of Hereafter
1. Recording of Thoughts and Actions
Conscious → Sub-Conscious → Unconscious
Every action is recorded:
examples:
i. when light reaches
ii. every action leaves impact: inventions based upon these
iii. Every sound permanently exists
Purpose:
1. God is not useless and He doesn’t do useless things
2. CCTVs and cameras
3. more than 90% not used here
Equation:
Action = Reward
if Action ≠ Reward
if Here = Hereafter
and x + y ≠ 0 (equation is not balanced)
Good vs Evil
A person lives a pious life, other criminal life
Good life: follows good path
Bad life: use every technique to gain benefits
If no hereafter then:
i. Evil > Good
ii. how to convince people to do good?
But: Good ≠ Bad
Fulfilling Wishes
whishes are placed by God
two possibilities
1. fulfilling wishes
2. one fair chance
or justice will be prevailed

Effects of Hereafter
1. Temptation of Good Deeds
for benefits
for showoff
for fear
for greed
Hereafter tempts us to do good, when there may be no immediate benefit, no one seeing…
The good may seem harmful in short run
The good may seem waste of resources
example: a student, a teacher
3. Bravery
It makes a person brave
ready to sacrifice his most precious thing
used for good and bad purposes
examples: firefighters, suicide bombers
most misused concepts: to take people’s money and use them for their benefit
4. Patience
Make a person responsible
Hold him against revolt
An oppressed has two choice: suicide and aggression against system
Hereafter holds him
مبں نے اینا معاملہ اہلل کے سبرد کر دیا ہے
5. Sense of Responsibility
Makes a person responsible
Thinks twice before making decisions
Creates a balanced system
