Human lifespan visualization.
Summary of Human life in a nutshell.

Hadith## “The lifespan for my Ummah is from 60 to 70 years and very few surpass this”. (Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 2331-3550)

On very rare occasions Rasulullah (sallallahoalaihiwassalam) , actually drew some visualization to underscore the importance of the message.

Hadith## `Abdullaah (Ibn Mas`ood) رضي الله عنه narrates that once,
The Prophet ﷺ drew a square [in the sand], and then drew a line in the middle of it and let it extend outside the square and then drew several small lines attached to that central line, and said:
This is the human being, and this, (the square) is his end of his lifespan, which encircles him from all sides (or has encircled him), and this (line), which is outside (the square), is his hope, and these small lines are the calamities and troubles (which may befall him), and if one misses him, another will snap (i.e. overtake) him, and if the other misses him, a third will snap (i.e. overtake) him.
[Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (6417)]

The hadith explains some basic realities of life.

Lesson #1 Our Wordly Life is short. We shouldn't delay good actions and preparation for hereafter in hope for long life above 60 years.
Lesson #2 Our hopes ,desires and plans, go way beyond our actual time in this world. Remembering death often is a tonic for diseased heart.
Lesson #3 Problems and calamities of life are unavoidable and a constant ingredient of this world. Be Patient and seek help of Allah in everything. This world is an exam and is temporary . Hereafter is the result and is everlasting.
