What Just Happened?



In the name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Passionate. May Allah showers peace and blessings upon our beloved Prophet. May The Most Powerful grants us strength to defeat those who makes Islam a mockery delight. Only Allah can save one from threats and dangers around us. You can run and hide from all your obligatory duties as a muslim but once you are six feet under, then you will know the taste of true bitterness of your sins, worldly laughter and non-meaningful tears.

Its almost as if time just went unknown. During the whole 12 months, there may be hearts that has been broken, eyes have been drenched and old memories would just fade. A perfect story ending, just like how most movies end, there will always be tears, laughter, joy and sadness. Too typical. If we look closely of how our mind, body and soul is developed, we will learn a valuable lesson that will be useful for the future.

We've seen flash floods, landslides, forest fires, contagious deadly diseases, drought during 1428 hijrah, that caused countless deaths, damaged houses and left that's left scattered in temporary shelters and accommodation with only minimal food supplies. Crying babies, pregnant mothers, senior elders, all in distress, felt the extreme discomfort and uneasiness of the situation. Before, everybody was well-off and had everything they wanted. A new bentley, a complete real-life movie theatre set with a big fat 'lazy' leather chair and a brisk of wine on the side. Each restaurant had 'all-you-can' eat buffet for breakfast, brunch, lunch, high-tea and dinner which caused almost everyone to laze and sleep until the next morning. Mixing of boys and girls in an uncontrolled environment. Can they really control it?? Tits showing, wandering evil eyes and mind. Where will we be having the party tomorrow? Is there a concert tomorrow? It was just a perfect setting...

Meanwhile, the poor, the needy, single mothers, and the homeless never asked more than what they bargained for. They ask so little. A sip of tea or maybe a nickle to get the DAY by. Just so that they can feel how it feels like to be comfortable and not to be a beggar. Old folks home was never a home in the first place which later became a place for gambling. It was each and every man to look after their aging parents. 54" plasma tv BOX used as a shelter and used thrown papers as a blanket.

These situations invited Allah's wrath. Allah never liked those who take things for granted, never liked those who spends lavishly on unnecessary items and never liked those who acted like how satan is. Alcohol was already haram in the first place. Never liked the things above. Everyone acted on their dirty lust and their misaligned minds. They fed their full stomach with detestable foodstuff and made music as their god. Asian countries are feeling the 'heat wave' of the western phenomena where we are now witnessing the tragedies and natural occurrences experienced by people in the west. Even, the smallest country with the smallest population is also having similar affect.

Try reminiscing how situations were in the past. All were decent and kind, all were covered and mindful and everyone HAD respect for one another. It was also a perfect setting except that it was only practised by few and that few had somehow departed and left the last wondering. As true servants of Allah, the situations that are happening now should be seen as a warning from Allah. We need to be more aware and more stringent when seeing things which are not according not Islamic laws and regulations and NOT those laws and regulation MADE UP by humans!!

Our mind should be mindful. How? Know your boundaries and know your responsibilites as a muslim. If you are strong enough to stop immoral acts, then go ahead and make something stopped and don't just walk by and then feeling sorry for only observing. When you are able then, use your body as a tool to stop what is wrong. Once you have, your soul will be enriched and you will feel like this, "alhamdulillah...that felt good" [in your mind].

Look after your family and yourself from fire of hell (you will know HELL is real when you saw it with your own two eyes and only then you will regretfully say to yourself, "I should've done good deeds on earth.." but by then it will be ALL TOO LATE) and try not be walk on this earth proud and felt like you've accomplished something big coz YOU HAVEN'T!!
