Pretty Disobedient
All glory and praises are due only for Allah, The Most Benevolent and The Most Considerate. Who created the heavens and the earth in six days. The solar system is under his governance. The sole owner of everything. We owe nothing in this world, in fact. We are owned and will be returned to Him one day. He is very close. So close than humans often don't even realize it. We dedicated this life only for Him. We perform good deeds only to attain His pleasure and not to gain worldly fortunes. We are at our weakest state when..we are far from Him. We give up so quickly on Him and often beaten at our own game but those who has a strong will power should be able to fight the evil inner voice in us, Allah's will.
One time, Prophet Muhammad, our beloved one, made this world peaceful that everyone , muslims and non-muslims were treated fairly, everyone was protected and there were equal treatments all over. There WAS equality and harmony. Something that is very difficult to attain in this day and age. Sometimes, it feels as if time is going back to the time of ignorance where people would just do and not think. People would drink, commit adultery, gamble and go to fortune tellers. Time is ticking and more and more people are still being fascinated with this world made up of rock, liquid and soil.
Satan is our biggest enemy and he WILL make sure that each and every muslim will turn apostate especially those who are weak, those who let false desires be their God. Satan will persuade humans to lose hope on Allah, to give in to false intentions and lusts, to do wrong and evil on earth. History has proven that those who followed the footsteps of satan will be "showered" with "gifts"as traces of ruins of the evildoers are still apparent even until today. Satan can be beaten if our heart is pure and if we stand together, satan will fear us.
Humans, they are the same in the eyes of God. What differentiates them is their obedience towards the All Mighty. A man with not a lot of money in his pocket might not look appealing to us but if the man had his time devoted to Allah, you would be very shocked to see where he stand one day. You would also think that a girl who say little may seemed boring and dull but if that girl only say good, does not tell lies and speak only when is necessary, then, you may begged to differ. Another example would be, a cleaner who scrubs toilets, sweep floors and take out garbage may sound like someone whom we would generally disgust but the fact that matter is, just as long as they perform their duties as a muslim, they are closer to Allah than we think they are because they are the ones who cleanse the filth humans made and picks up the cigarette butts we throw. Allah likes cleanliness and satan enjoys filth.
In this arena of fame and fortune, humans are often neglected with the items which has been given to them. Such as beauty, rank and wealth. Every single thing is a test for us. Unattractiveness, no status and poor can also prove the same. Just like a rat being lured to get into a trap with a fragment of cheese. So low how humans have become. Obviously, humans are bigger than a rat. Unfortunately, there are those who preferred to be marked lower than this. Why? Because of the beauty one has, they tend to be arrogant, proud and can do without Allah attitude. They let themselves be known by the world, they post pictures of them in the most seductive way, the tell the whole world how disobedient they are to Allah, they exposed themselves without knowing the consequences they will be facing during Judgement Day. If you look at the world of models, both in the eastern and western nations, those who are naive and ignorant would probably look up to them and fancy their lifestyle as they are glamorous, beautiful and rich. Empty how their heart is.
Often, those who are aware and told that they are beautiful will not wear hijab. But all praises are due to Allah, they are some who managed to not let satan control their desires. Its know way know how world we live in. If we let our friends control and deceive us, especially disobedient muslim friends, one day in the future you will reflect back of what your fiends have made you become, let alone non-muslim friends. This is not to say that having plenty of friends are bad, they are friends who inculcates good deeds and forbids what is forbidden in Islam.
Good real sincere friends are the jewels of the world. If one had a companion who is obedient, help those who are needy, kind to those who are pious, who had piety, harsh to those who are disobedient and practice the teachings of Islam, then insya Allah, that friend will not lead you to astray but will lead you the infinite bliss here and after this world has turned to dust. The trick to finding good friends are often difficult because undeniably there are humans who has hidden agendas and will do anything do be our friend. One of the hidden agendas would be a person would get close to us just so he or she can ruin us slowly, just like cancer.
Allah mentioned in the Qur'an that He will let go of His 'Hand' (help) if a muslim befriend with a non-believer when there are still muslims around. Basically, Allah is saying that it is better to find friends who are muslims because if one is close to a non-believer, he or she is indirectly supporting the ways of the non-believer even though we are not following them. Wallahu'alam. Are we going REALLY going to support the ways of unbelievers? Are we strong enough to withstand the fire of hell? Allah is The Most Fair and He will judge us one day. We just need to be extra picky when choosing a right friend and based our decision from the Islamic viewpoint and this can be gotten from The Qur'an and hadeeth.
"O ye who believe! take not for friends Unbelievers rather than Believers: do ye wish to offer Allah an open proof against yourselves?" [An-Nisaa: 144]
Muslims can be defined as those who are obedient to Allah and avoid what is sinful. Hypocrites are much worse, in fact, one time, one of the closest companion of our beloved Prophet Muhmmad had a dream that he was stabbed after he finished his fajr prayer (suboh). So when he went for the actual fajr prayer, he was actually stabbed and just before his said his syahadah, he asked one of his companion this question, "Was the person who killed me a muslim or a non-muslim?" The person then said, "a non-muslim". The thing we need understand here is, having a muslim friend who is a two-face (hypocrite) is much worse/fatal than having a non-muslim friend, just as long as they respect Islam as your religion and NOT make a mockery out of it. A muslim who is a hypocrite is like a cancer and you would not know until the symptoms are detected (such as not praying daily, not wearing hijab and so on) and when compared to a non-muslim, its obvious that they are not. Wallahu'alam.
