Al-Balad (The City) 90:4
لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ فِي كَبَدٍ
Verily, We have created man into [a life of] pain, toil and trial.
Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Verily if you are not killed then you are going to die anyway, and I swear by the One Who holds Ali’s soul in His Hand, a thousand strikes of the sword on one’s head is easier to bear than to die in one’s bed.’
Allama Iqbal
Kham Hai Jab Tak To Hai Mitti Ka Ek Anbar Tu
Pukhta Ho Jaye To Hai Shamsheer-E-Bezanhar Tu
While you are still immature, you are a heap of dust;
When you ripen, you will become an irresistible sword.
