Allah informs us in the Qur'an that aging is an unavoidable process that can't be stopped, and results in physical weakness and impaired thinking. Old age requires care and attention.

We are reminded of the temporary nature of life, and that life both begins and ends in an infant-like state. Life is slipping away, and that we should use our time wisely. Life is a fleeting journey that comes to an end in physical deterioration and death.

Allah explains this through the stages of creation, and warns us of the inevitability of growing old.

Celebrities provide a stark example of this truth, and remind us of the insignificance of this life.

The only assurance of eternal bliss is to have faith in Allah and spend life doing good deeds.
