[quote][quote]What I have understood from this Hadith is that our stay in this world is very short. [hl]We should be worried[/hl] about our upcoming life and [hl]not indulge[/hl] ourselves in undue [hl]worldly pleasures[/hl].

[hl]Allah knows best[/hl].[/quote]

[blue]Sure [hl]Allah knows best[/hl] and He has not left us unaware of the things that are good for us and those that are to be avoided

And I feel that what you have understood from that Hadith is contradicting the following verses[/blue]

Hud (The Prophet Hud)

وَأَنِ اسْتَغْفِرُواْ رَبَّكُمْ ثُمَّ تُوبُواْ إِلَيْهِ يُمَتِّعْكُم مَّتَاعًا حَسَنًا إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى وَيُؤْتِ كُلَّ ذِي فَضْلٍ فَضْلَهُ وَإِن تَوَلَّوْاْ فَإِنِّيَ أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ كَبِيرٍ (11:3)
   
# 11:3 (Asad) Ask your Sustainer to forgive you your sins, and then turn towards Him in repentance - [whereupon] [hl]He will grant you a goodly enjoyment of life [in this world][/hl] until a term set [by Him is fulfilled]; [4] and [in the life to come] He will bestow upon everyone possessed of merit [a full reward for] his merit. [5] But if you turn away, then, verily, I dread for you the suffering [which is bound to befall you] on that awesome Day

Al-Imran (The Family of Imran)

زُيِّنَ لِلنَّاسِ حُبُّ الشَّهَوَاتِ مِنَ النِّسَاء وَالْبَنِينَ وَالْقَنَاطِيرِ الْمُقَنطَرَةِ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ وَالْخَيْلِ الْمُسَوَّمَةِ وَالأَنْعَامِ وَالْحَرْثِ ذَلِكَ مَتَاعُ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَاللّهُ عِندَهُ حُسْنُ الْمَآبِ (3:14)
   
# 3:14 (Asad) ALLURING unto man is the enjoyment of worldly desires through women, and children, and heaped-up treasures of gold and silver, and horses of high mark, and cattle, and lands. [hl]All this may be enjoyed in the life of this world[/hl] - but the most beauteous of all goals is with God.[/quote]
