Hadeeth text
Abu Barzah al-Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Man's feet will not move from their place on the Day of Judgment until he is asked about his life, in what he let it perish; about his knowledge, what he did with it; about his money, from where he earned it and on what he spent it on; and about his body, and how he wore it out."
Explanation
First: His life; how did he let it perish and how did he spend it?
Second: His knowledge; did he seek it for the sake of Allah? Did he act upon it? Did he convey it to those entitled to it?
Third: His money; from where did he earn it? Was it lawfully or unlawfully earned? What did he spend it on? Did he spend it on what pleases Allah or on what displeases Him?
Fourth: His body, strength, wellness, and youth; how did he use them and wear them out?
Benefits
The blessings that Allah bestows on His slaves are abundant, and He will ask everyone about the blessings he was granted; thus, one must use such blessings in what pleases Allah.
