**A Simple Yet Deep Drawing By The Prophet (Sallah Allahu Alieh Waslam) That Explains Life!**
'Abdullah Narrated that the Prophet (Sallah Allahu Alieh Waslam) drew a square.
Then he drew a line in the middle of it and let it extend outside the square.
Then he drew several small lines attached to that central line.
Then he said,
"[RED LINE] This is the human being,
[THE BLUE SQUARE] and this, is his lease of life, it encircles him from all sides (or has encircled him),
[THE PURPLE LINE] and this (line), which is outside (the square), is his hope,
[THE BLACK LINES] and these small lines are the calamities and troubles (which may befall him), and if one misses him, an-other will snap (i.e. overtake) him, and if the other misses him, a third will snap (i.e. overtake) him."
