So much to say in such a neglected blog. Time passed, events occured , hearts broken and healed, happy times remembered. Each day you become nearer to your grave. You read about death everyday and yet still you do not remember that it maybe you oneday. You forgot in your daily lives to carry out your responsibilities as a Muslim. You find excuses for petty things which is pretty much obvious should not be done. You forgot that little sins created will lead to big sins. You forgot that iman is much important above everything. You forget so many things because you have not thought about it. Why have you not thought about it? Because you say you are too busy. Syaitan indeed has managed to mislead you and many other people.
Should you manage to see the unseen, jannah and hellfire, I am sure that you would dedicate your life to the path of Allah. I hope I am not sounding extreme here but if you would think about your daily lives and how much you spend in a day just thinking of Allah swt, you probably realise that it maybe less than 5 minutes a day. Yes...out of 24 hours...5 minutes a day. If you would be able to see the blackened grief of regret on the face of those who have died, so much regret of not saying even one kalimat of lailahaillallah a day. Those who have not understood the rewards of these very simple things. Those people who would never ever be able to amend thmeselves. Come on, human are the best creation on earth. Allah swt has been given us an ability to think. Don't take it lightly. Use it to the full capacity. Allah's mercy has no boundaries. But that also does not mean you should take our Creator lightly. He has ordered us to pray 5 times a day. Do good. Do sunnat prayers. Read the Quran. Do zakat. Do sadaqah.
Don't waste time. Facebook will not be helping us is akhirat. Not Costa coffee. Not the internet.
Working is ibadat. Then sometimes it can easily turn into maksiat. Sin. Thats when you work and do zina the same time. Work for money you get nothing. But work for the sake of Allah and you will get everything.
I hate it when the press praises muslims turn aethist for speaking the truth etc. I used to hound YouTube for clips of these ignorant people talking, debating, giving speeches etc. At a point my hatred was raging that I started to post comments about these people, just telling them how wrong they were and nobody should listen to them. The reply was always someone who would be rude, offensive and always against Islam. After a while, I realised I was not going anywhere. Watching these type of people talk was a waste of time and gained me nothing. My iman was not getting any better and I was late for prayers. That was the impact and I regret those wasted times.
My mother fell ill with a dense left sided stroke earlier this year. It was a difficult time for us all. Very difficult. I never felt as sad as I felt back then, as far as I can remember in my whole life. But as muslims we belive in Qada and Qadar. We do not blame things. We accept it as Allah's will and carry on, trying to make the best of it. We truly believe that anything that comes in our way would be a test from Allah swt to make us better people, for us to remember Him or to gain us a higher place in Jannah. I believe in the promise of Allah swt as His promise is always true.
Sometimes so much talk and so little action. One day I will read this again and remember.
