A saying of the last prophet Mohammad (s.a.w)
"Take benefit of five before five:
Your youth before your old age,
your health before your sickness,
your wealth before your poverty,
your free time before you are preoccupied,
and your life before your death"
(Narrated by Ibn Abbas and reported by Al Hakim)
Your youth: As worshipping in youth holds more value than in old age.
Your health: As many good deeds become hard when unhealthy.
Your wealth: As the greatness of charity can be achieved before it's too late.
Your free time: As one will make excuse when preoccupied as free time was wasted.
And your life before your death: As the doors to deeds are now closed.
