The life of the hereafter is the final abode and it is in the heart of every mu'min to yearn and desire for a life of felicity in the Aakhirah. Hence, this book enables the reader to comfort his thoughts towards his permanent home – Jannah. It also focuses on diminishing the love of this world and thereupon indoctrinating the love of the hereafter.

 The subjects have been carefully selected from various lectures and discourses pertaining to the hereafter. A distinctive feature of the book is the inclusion of ahaadith in Arabic; much has been sourced from Shaykh Jalaluddin Suyuti's "Sharhus Sudur", and has been translated into simple English for the benefit of the layman.

In essence, the book is an ideal prescription for the spiritual diseases of the heart. The book concludes with some very powerful and essential duas pertaining to the hereafter.
