This means that we should not forget about death and its inevitability, as it will eventually come for us all. We should remember this fact in order to live our lives in a way that pleases Allah, as we know our time on earth is limited. We should also use this knowledge to stay away from worldly pleasures and focus on the afterlife instead. This hadith serves as a reminder of how important it is to keep death in mind when making decisions or engaging in activities, so that we can make sure they are pleasing to Allah and beneficial for us in the hereafter.
