About Me
Praise be to Allah (SWT), Lord of the universe and the worlds beyond…
I appreciate the love, care, dedication of my parents and the hardships they went through to bring me up. I am the reflection of their training. All the good characteristics that I have, I inherited from them. For bad ones, I usually blame Shaitaan. May Allah (SWT) reward my parents and my siblings with the best options in this world and in the Hereafter….May He (SWT) protect them from all evils and make every second of their easy for them…Ameen!
” In the name of Allah, The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful…….((Allah)) Most Gracious! It is He Who has taught the Qur’an. He has created man: He has taught him speech (and intelligence). The sun and the moon follow courses (exactly) computed; And the herbs and the trees – both (alike) bow in adoration. And the Firmament has He raised high, and He has set up the Balance (of Justice), In order that ye may not transgress (due) balance. So establish weight with justice and fall not short in the balance. It is He Who has spread out the earth for (His) creatures: Therein is fruit and date-palms, producing spathes (enclosing dates); Also corn, with (its) leaves and stalk for fodder, and sweet-smelling plants. Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny?” SURAH AR-RAHMAN 1-13
I believe that my personal life is a zero progress without my participation in community matters. I am the part of an ecological system, I am the part of life on earth, I have to pay back what I expect and gain from my surroundings. This is how we can keep the life-system balanced on earth. “Allahumma saulli alaa syedina Muhammad wa alaa aali Muhammad”
I don’t believe in regular schooling unless there is a need or a valid reason for that. Childhood is not all about schooling and books and copies. Parents must arrange a weekend trip for childrens’ socialization even if it is to go to different public parks near by. It refreshes their mind and quickens their learning ability. I strongly believe that spending each and every penny or paisa on me or my daughter’s well-being is pure selfishness and God doesn’t like it. There is a due portion in my earnings and my provisions for the people, animals and things around me.
It is said in the Qur’an, “Indeed, Allah loves the one who perform the best (quality workers)”. See, God also asks for and values quality work. So my share to this world shouldn’t be the bread crumbs…the extra money, the left over time and the unwanted or useless child…not the age when I am unable to do anything, not the time when I am left with no choices.
Narrated Ibn Mas’ud: The Prophet said, “Ruined are those who insist on hardship in matters of the Faith.” He repeated this three times. (Muslim)
Narrated Abu Hurairah: The Prophet said, “The religion (of Islam) is easy, and whoever makes the religion a rigor, it will overpower him. So, follow a middle course (in worship); if you can’t do this, do something near to it and give glad tidings and seek help (of Allah) at morn and at dusk and some part of night.” (Al-Bukhari)
This is the teaching of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), make things easy for others. I spent a lot of time in figuring out techniques that can make Qur’an and Arabic learning easy in short period of time, same with Urdu, English and Math.
Few years ago, all I was left with was a collection of my dreams. Since then I have been trying to put them together into one single form. I rely upon my own resources especially if it has to do something with my dreams, so if I fail, it will be only me to blame myself. I can bear the loss without yelling upon me.
If all Muslims are one unit then certainly we have lost something in last fourteen hundred years, it’s a long period. We were either busy conquering the lands or defending ourselves against oppressions and allegations or sought peace in solitude i.e. sufism, just say good things and expect that one day the world will become Paradise. All these things have nothing to do with building a system. Seems like all the discoveries are done and there is nothing left for us to show the world except for entertaining them with our melodies or humor, it doesn’t sound like decent.
I want to enlist all the discoveries that we (Muslims) have made on the basis of the scientific facts mentioned in Qur’an…because what non-Muslims have done to check whether Qur’anic facts are right or wrong has nothing to do with our success. That is between them and Allah (SWT). The question is that what have we done to prove the world that Qur’an is right… I mean the physical efforts. If Qur’an is in it’s original form…God promised it to preserve it’s text. If it is about spreading it’s message and transferring it to the next generations…we have failed, our actions are contrary to Qur’anic teachings and a vast majority of Muslims (especially from Pakistan or Karachi) don’t know how to read Qur’an correctly or they haven’t even read the translation.
I wonder how will I defend myself on the Day of Judgment when asked did you try to live according to Qur’an or what efforts did you make to prove the world that Qur’an is the final revelation from God and this is the ultimate guidance or how did you defend the Prophet against all accusations? O boy, I’m gonna be in trouble. May Allah (SWT) make that accountability easy for me and my parents and my siblings and my daughter and all my family children, ameen.
And what if on the Day of Judgment, Allah (SWT) will say, “all your excuses are accepted, for not changing the world, the surroundings, the people…forget about them, just prove and enter the Jannah…how much control you had on yourself for not doing the evil, how you tried to save others from your evil…show your efforts and passion for guiding yourself to the right path, for improving yourself in My love…… have I prepared myself for this judgement?
My Inspiration:
“When the big fire was lit for Prophet Ibraheem (AS), the angels witnessed a little bird carrying water in its beak and sprinkling it over the fire. The angles asked the reason for making all this effort, the bird replied, “I know that these few drops of water cannot extinguish this huge fire. But I’m doing this so on the Day of Judgement, my name won’t be written among the one who burnt the fire.”
