Contrasting Lives in This World

SUMMARY: This hadith speaks of the contrast between the life of luxury and misery in this world, and how it will be judged on the Day of Resurrection.

Anas bin Malik (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah said, "Among the inmates of Hell, a person who had led the most luxurious life in this world will be brought up on the Day of Resurrection and dipped in the Fire and will be asked: 'O son of Adam! Did you ever experience any comfort? Did you happen to get any luxury?' He will reply: 'By Allah, no, my Rabb'. And then one of the people of Jannah who had experienced extreme misery in the life of this world will be dipped in Jannah. Then he will be asked: 'O son of Adam! Did you ever experience any misery? Did you ever encounter difficulty?' He will say: "By Allah, no my Rabb, I neither experienced misery nor passed through hardship". Muslim.
وعنه قال‏:‏ قال رسول الله، ‏:‏ “يؤتى بأنعم أهل الدنيا من أهل النار يوم القيامة، فيصبغ في النار صبغة، ثم يقال‏:‏ يا ابن آدم هل رأيت خيراً قط‏؟‏ هل مر بك نعيم قط‏؟‏ فيقول‏:‏ لا والله يا رب‏.‏ ويؤتى بأشد الناس بؤساً في الدنياً من أهل الجنة، فيصبغ صبغة في الجنة، فيقال له‏:‏ يا ابن آدم هل رأيت بؤساً قط‏؟‏ هل مربك شدة قط‏؟‏ فيقول‏:‏ لا، والله، ما مر بى بؤس قط، ولا رأيت شدة قط‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about how our lives in this world will be judged on the Day of Resurrection. It tells us that those who have led a luxurious life will be asked if they ever experienced any comfort or luxury, to which they will reply no. Similarly, those who have experienced extreme misery in this world will also be asked if they ever experienced any difficulty or hardship, to which they again reply no. The lesson here is that we should not take our lives for granted and should strive to make them as meaningful as possible by doing good deeds and helping others. We should also remember that whatever we do now has consequences later on when we are judged by Allah on the Day of Judgement.
