Bridge Crossing
Our beloved Prophet Muhammad sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam once said:
"Verily the creation of each one of you is brought together in his mother's belly for forty days in the form of seed, then he is a clot of blood for a like period, then a morsel of flesh for a like period, then there is sent to him the angel who blows the breath of life into him and who is commanded about four matters: to write down his means of livelihood, his life span, his actions, and whether happy or unhappy. By Allah, other than Whom there is no god, verily one of you behaves like the people of Paradise until there is but an arm's length between him and it, and that which has been written over takes him and so he behaves like the people of Hell-fire and thus he enters it; and one of you behaves like the people of Hell-fire until there is but an arm's length between him and it, and that which has been written over takes him and so he behaves like the people of Paradise and thus he enters it." [narrated by Bukhari & Muslim]
During Day of Judgement, after all our “performances” have been weighed and all questions have been asked by THE Al-Mighty. Each and every one of us must cross The “bridge” which is known as “Sirat”. It is mentioned that this bridge is thinner than A hair and sharper than a knife. The difficulty level of crossing this bridge will wholly based on the person's piousness towards Allah. It was also mentioned that the thinness of the bridge is as thin as one (1) hair being divided into 7 layers. This bridge will be crossed over by all including The Apostle. There will be those who will cross the bridge as fast as a lightning, there will be those will barely make it across, some would fall down but suddenly saved and so on. It will in definite vary. Its up to us now to decide how we want us to cross it
Not one of you but will pass over it: this is, with thy Lord, a Decree which must be accomplished. But We shall save those who guarded against evil, and We shall leave the wrong-doers therein, (humbled) to their knees. [19: 71-72]
