In stage of very very old age, all the body limbs weak and chance all the body organs becomes weak and remains functional no more. Thus person becomes completely weak, unwise, injudicious, and just like as he was in his childhood, devoid of wisdom and awareness. Due to dementia, he loses all his knowledge, and become helpless even to seat ir stand, walk and move. All mighty said, Allah created you and all then remove your souls and amongst you is the one who is turned towards the worst part of age that he does not know or remember after having had knowledge.
There is no exact age of such condition. It is evident from historical data that some people reach this stage of helplessness at the age of about sixty years and some people do not even reach or realize this state in the age of hundred years or more.
It is said by learned people that at the age of bunty all of the body organs and memory power or wisdom become defective and stops performing normal and do not remain able to earn or perform religious activity or defence. Thus this age and it's problems are such that a person should seek refuge with Almighty. It is the time to supplication voor deliverance from seven things in this manner.
O lord I seek your refuge from miserliness, idelrnecss, age of helplessness, torment of grave, turmoil of devil, turmoil of life or death.
O lord do not let me live to an age when I become bhedon for anyone. Help me before the time when I have to ask the people for help me while getting up.
It is wisely said the one who read and follow Holy books of religion will not reach to this stage of life. The practice of moral and spiritual guidance in the past of his life experience will keep him at least healthy ti avoid stage of helplessness.
