Allah won't Ask

but He'll ask how many people you drove who didn't have
transportation.

Allah won't ask the square footage of your house,
but He'll ask how many people you welcomed into your home.

Allah won't ask about the clothes you had in your closet,
but He'll ask how many you helped to clothe.

Allah won't ask what your highest salary was,
but He'll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it.

Allah won't ask what your job title was,
but He'll ask if you performed your job to the best of your
ability.

Allah won't ask how many friends you had,
but He'll ask how many people to whom you were a friend.

Allah won't ask in what neighborhood you lived,
but He'll ask how you treated your neighbors.

Allah won't ask about the color of your skin,
but He'll ask about the content of your character.

Allah won't ask why it took you so long to seek Salvation,
but He'll lovingly take you to your mansion in heaven, and not to
the gates of Hell.
