State of Heedlessness

Many people are described as being in a state of heedlessness, failing to acknowledge the urgency of their spiritual reckoning. This concept of 'raflatan' signifies a lack of awareness and deeper understanding, where individuals possess intellect but do not utilize it effectively. The idea is reinforced by Quranic descriptions that compare such people to animals that are unaware of danger, highlighting a stark contrast between animals' natural vigilance and humans' forgetfulness of their mortality and the consequences of their actions. Ultimately, this heedlessness leads to a detrimental state in which individuals overlook the urgency of self-reflection and the importance of being prepared for the reckoning of the Day of Judgment.
