Fudayl ibn Iyad رحمه الله said,

"You consider yourself to be something, while even an insect obeys Allah more than you do"

[Hilyat al Awliya Wa Tabaqat Al Asfiya 6/25]

One day, we will beg Allah to return in this life to do good deeds, but we'd never be able to.

He said:

حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءَ أَحَدَهُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتُ قَالَ رَبِّ ٱرۡجِعُونِ

[For such is the state of the disbelievers], until, when death comes to one of them, he says, "My Lord, send me back

لَعَلِّىٓ أَعۡمَلُ صَٰلِحًا فِيمَا تَرَكۡتُۚ كَلَّآۚ إِنَّهَا كَلِمَةٌ هُوَ قَآئِلُهَاۖ وَمِن وَرَآئِهِم بَرۡزَخٌ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُونَ

That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! It is only a word he is saying; and behind them is a barrier

until the Day they are resurrected.
