Life is a Mirage

Life in the dunya (world) is portrayed as fleeting and deceptive, often likened to a mirage. 

Allah says: “Know that the life of this world is but amusement and diversion and adornment and boasting to one another and competition in increase of wealth and children—like the example of a rain whose [resulting] plant growth pleases the tillers; then it dries, and you see it turn yellow; then it becomes [scattered] debris. And in the Hereafter is severe punishment and forgiveness from Allah and approval. And what is the worldly life except the enjoyment of delusion?” (Quran, Al-Hadid 57:20)

This perspective encourages Muslims to adopt a balanced outlook—engaging with the world responsibly while remaining spiritually focused on the eternal realities of the Hereafter.
