Assumptions Not The Way Beautiful saturday morning! Ahhhh what a nice feeling to be resting at home. I should by the way. As I'm feeling a wee bit under the weather. Make that ALOT please. It started with a sore throat, then flu, then cough and I am sensing fever. YIKES!! I should stay indoors and not go out? Bahhhh. My colleague says that new h1n1 cases are being discovered and it is on the rise. My goodness. I hope mine is simply a weather problem kinda thing. As of late, I've went pretty deep into my own thoughts. Meaning? I wanna do things which bring me closer to ALLAH S.W.T. and seriously, I do feel like I am. It does sound corny in a way but it brings about peace, calm within me. I do get stressed on certain issues at times but I think of ALLAH S.W.T., I felt that HE will somehow protects and shield me away from these issues. Masya-allah. I need and want to make this saying "Do what ALLAH S.W.T. ask you to do, and leave the things HE does not want you to do behind" a principles in my life. No doubt I will be having problems adjusting to it cause I'm not as perfect as an angel or anywhere close to our prophet Muhammad S.A.W. to really discipline myself to this. But I'll try and give it a go and see where it brings me. I am pretty sure that I'll be looked at from a whole different angle. Be it good or bad that people think of me, I'll just tawakal to ALLAH S.W.T. so HE can lead me to the life that HE had planned out for me. What is my opinion on this NEW aura about me? I feel...well let's put it this way....more happy with my innerself. I MIGHT be shunned away by friends. I know family won't. In fact I think they'll love it, especially mom. She has always been wanting me to be the leader of the family in terms of religion wise. Maybe that is wise she named me AMIR. The leader, the crown prince of the family. Hey it's not self-proclaimed ok, that is what AMIR means in arabic. Hahahaha! Dad isn't the most strongest in terms of religion, and mom is a female. So I think I want to step up and insyallah, with me doing that, my happy family can be more meriah and closer. AMIN. On the topic of religion, I have a few friends who encountered bad experience being dished out by our "good" muslimah. I'm referring to those muslim sisters who donned the hijab. These "good" muslimahs, appear demure and lovely but has a bad attitude. And this means that when they see another fellow muslim sisters who doesn't wear the hijab, they start rolling their eyes and talking bad things behind her back. Now, did Islam ever taught us that? If so, where is the hadith stating that? I don't believe so. By doing that, these bunch are simply in the class of the normal girls who doesn't wear the hijab. It makes you no less special. Islam taught us, to be beautiful inside outside. What is the use of covering up and then being bad to people? What's the use of being nice and performing the solat and then not covering the aurat for the world to see when we are outside? Doing one thing doesn't make you deserve the term a good muslim. Why not do both? Like when you are in the hijab, be nice. And when you are being nice, don the hijab? It does sounds easy but I am fully aware of the plenty of complications that surrounds these issues. But whatever complications there is, IF we follow ALLAH's askings, HE will provide us with solutions. No HE won't solve problems for us, but HE will provide solutions and then, it will be up to us to take it up on us. I am not that much concern on the brothers of Islam. For some reason, I think it is much more easy to soften a man's heart and mind about these things. It's just my personal opinion. As I walk down Geylang day in day out, I've seen with my eyes the various types of our muslim sisters. Be it good or bad. And when some lacks one of the above main factor, some even lack both and simply appear "gone case". It is not my job to ridiculed these bunch but I am sad for them. The kind of azab that they will go thru in their deathbed, during death, the torture of the grave and also when qiamat comes along, subhanallah. I don't even want to go further. Gives me the chill right down to my spine. I've been doing da'wah for almost 1 year now. I am still a noob in these but I have certainly learnt alot of things. ALOT. I've learnt to embrace challenges in a much more islamic way. And personally, I think our sisters in Islam, the ones wearing the hijab should instilled themselves with the right etiquettes of being a good muslim and use their appeal to do da'wah. Who knows, your kindness your smile your attitude can bring our sisters who has not don the hijab, a reason to do so. Not only them, but to anyone out there. Can be a non-muslim too or those who we claimed to be gone case. Insyallah, ALLAH will guide you to do good for the sake of Islam. I rest my case now. I need to rest and take my medications, else my fever might get worst. Haish. I hope one way or another, I got to reach out to you my lovely friends, and got you thinking. An advice from me: Do not let a bunch of rotten eggs spoil the whole basket. You will end up throwin the whole basket, along with the good ones. And when you buy a new basket, you might get ALL of the eggs spoilt. Take your pick. A basket with a few rotten eggs or a basket with ALL rotten eggs. x0x0. AJ Thank you so much for reading you all. And since you are already down here, PLEASE VOTE for who do you prefer to listen to for next month. Aite?? Mucho loves! |
