Mthandiwe, mzalwane wethu,
Ngaphambi kokufa, labo abasezigabeni ezahlukene zokubakhona bazamile ukuchaza ukufa ngendlela yabo:
“Izinto ezikholelwa kuzo emhlabeni zizobonwa ngemva kokufa. Ukufa ngaphambi kokufa kusho ukwenza manje lokho umuntu ayeyofisa ukuba akwenzile lapho efa futhi ebona iqiniso.”
Hz. Mevlana’ya göre:
Ukufa
“Ukufa okuzithandelayo” kanye “nokufa kwemvelo”
ihlukaniswe kabili.
Ukufa ngokuzithandela;
Ukuzilolonga ngokomoya kusho ukuhlanzwa komphefumulo nokukhululwa ekubusweni kwenkanuko.
Ku-Mesnevi
“UTûtî noMthengisi”
indaba yayo ingesinye isizathu:
Umrhwebi owayezoya eNdiya wabuza wonke umndeni wakhe ukuthi yini abayifunayo ukuthi ayilethe lapho ebuya. Wafunda izifiso zabo zonke. Umrhwebi wayenengwenya ayithanda kakhulu, eyayiboshwe ekheji. Lapho sekuyisikhathi sokubuza ingwenya ayithanda kakhulu, inyoni yakhuluma isuka ekheji layo:
“Ungangiletheli lutho. Ungathathi lutho kimi. Ngicela nje ukuthi ukhonze abanye abafowethu, izihlobo zami, abaphila emahlathini, abahamba besuka egatsheni baye kwelinye. Angifuni lutho olunye.”
Ngaphambi kokuba umthengisi aqedele imisebenzi yakhe abuyele ekhaya, waya ehlathini ukuze afeze isifiso senyoni yakhe, watshela izinyoni ezazihlala ehlathini lokho inyoni yakhe eyayikushilo, wazithumelela imikhonzo. Izinyoni zawa phansi zafa ngaso leso sikhathi. Umthengisi wakhathazeka kakhulu, wathi, “Ngiyabona, ngibangele ukufa kwezinyoni. Kanti lezi zinyoni zihlobene nenyoni yami.”
Ubuyela ezweni lakubo, abese etshela umthiyane wakhe ngalokho okwenzekile. Ngesikhathi emtshela, umthiyane wawa phansi ngaso leso sikhathi, wafa. Umdayisi wakhathazeka,
“Ngamtshela ngaphandle kokucabanga, ngokuphazima kweso, inhliziyo yakhe ayizange ikwazi ukukuthwala, wafa.”
Uthi. Ngokudabuka, uvula umnyango wekheji ukuze akhiphe isidumbu senyoni, ngaleso sikhathi-ke, le nyoni iyaphuma ekhejini, iyandiza ihamba. Njengoba isuka, iyambiza umthengisi;
“Ngesikhathi ngidlulisela umyalezo wami, abanye abantu abasehlathini baqonda ukuthi ngisejele futhi ngifuna ukukhululwa. Ngolimi lwabo, bangitshela ukuthi ukufa kuphela okungangikhulula. Bawa phansi ngathi bafa. Ngayiqonda leyo ndlela yokufunda, ngase ngizenza ngathi ngifile. Ngaleso sikhathi kuphela ngakhululwa ejele.”
Ukuze umuntu akhululeke futhi azikhulule ekuboshweni kwakhe yizifiso zobugovu kanye namaphutha, kudingeka kuphela…
“ukufa ngaphambi kokufa”
Kufanele. Kufanele azithibe (aziyale) ukuze afinyelele ekucocekeni nasekuthuleni.
Njengoba umthengisi evule umnyango wekheji ukuze akhiphe inyoni efile engasasebenzi,
Lapho umuntu enqoba izifiso zakhe ezimbi, njengamanga, ukuzenzisa, ukuzidla, ubuqili, inzondo, ukuzonda, ububi… ngokuqeqesha, khona-ke uyashintsha, umnyango owodwa uyavaleka, omunye uvuleke, futhi umphefumulo uyaqhubeka nohambo lwawo lwangempela.
Kumnandi

ukufa kwesimo esedlule bese uvuka kwesesilandelayo
“mutmainne”
lapho efinyelela ezingeni lakhe, ubafile ngaphambi kokufa kwemvelo, avuke ngesimo esingafi; ngemva kwalesi simo-ke
“Uthando lukaNkulunkulu luyamthanda, naye uyathanda uNkulunkulu wakhe, ngakho uyabizelwa ekukhonzeni nasezulwini.”
Ukufa ngaphambi kokufa.
“impi enkulu”
labo abaphumelelayo bayisibusiso esingenakuqhathaniswa emphakathini abaphila kuwo.
