Once
our Prophet (P.B.U.H.) sat to a grave and told: The grave talks daily and say:
O man: have you forgotten me: I am the hot bed of insects: I am the place of
torture and catastrophe. I am tormentor of all the humans save those fortunates
for whom I am broadened. Then our Prophet (P.B.U.H.) concluded saying: The
Grave is either a garden of paradise or a ditch of the hell
Once
Hazrat Ali (K.W.) visited the graveyard, accompanied with Kumail. When he reached it, he cast a glance at the graves
and addressed the buried and told: O occupants of the graves: O residents of
the deserted place: O dwellers of solitude and estrangement: Tell us about
you: As far as our case is concerned,
our properties and assets have been distributed, and our children reduced
orphans, and over wives remarried. This is our predicament. What is your
situation? He kept silence for a while, then looked at Kumail and told: O
Kumail: If these grave-dwellers be allowed to utter, they could say that the
best provision is the piety. Then Hazrat Ali burst into tears for a long while
and told: O Kumail: The grave is a container of the works and this is
well-obvious to those who are about to die.
It
is a common sight now-a-days that people smoke even in the graveyards. They go
for entertainment while interment as they are in merriment, and discuss worldly
topics ignoring the fact that the Grave is the entrance to the world hereafter.
Please concentrate on the life thereafter when you see this Entrance.

Dedicated to those scientists, who are inching towards the cognizance of the facts, spotlighted by Allah Almighty, in the wake of their intelligent observation for the top vertex of scientific achievement, which is not other than the "Disastrous end of the Universe". And this is probably during 15th century of Lunar calendar.
