Prophet Muhammad pbuh continued by saying that once a man got to know that the days in his life was numbered and very soon he would be confronted with death.

He knocked on the door of his first friend and asked whether he would help. To this the friend said, "of course, what are we here for. On the second door, when he came face to face with his second friend, and after narrating the entire story of his death and asked for help, the same answer was his fate again. The second friend said "I have been there with you all your life and can help you here. But there's nothing I can do for you after you die except take your corpse to the graveyard and bury you.

Prophet Muhammad pbuh then turned and asked his companions if anybody could identify the three friends and the man.

But work hard and pray and ask forgiveness from Allah SWT.

The good deeds assist mankind where every other thing loses value in the life hereafter! Beware that the world does not cheat you as it did me. I gathered wealth regardless of it being lawful or unlawful and left all of it for others. Now I am left with its burden upon me while they enjoy the fruit of it; therefore, avoid that which is similar to what happened to me'.
