Ada apa pada dunia?

"Sesiapa yang mahukan pahala (balasan) dunia sahaja (maka rugilah ia), kerana di sisi Allah disediakan pahala (balasan) dunia dan akhirat. Dan (ingatlah) Allah sentiasa Mendengar, lagi sentiasa Melihat" An-nisaa' : 134

Just a while ago a sister sighed about a part of her bounty in this world being "narrowed". She is a very good sister masya allah and i reminded her of the ayat which is often mentioned in the Quran "Laa khaufun 'alaihim walaahum yahzanuun" - Tiada ketakutan bagi mereka dan tiada pula mereka berdukacita. Though I knew she understood that kalimah better than I did. But sometimes we humans also need to remind each other because our hearts change directions very easily. But I understood her sadness, as it was a typical feeling amongst students. But life is not a bed of roses, it never was for those who lived and fought in Allah's cause. Neither was it for those whose hearts have been caught by the worldly passions, they just desire more and more - never satisfied. But at least these hearts who constantly remembered Allah was always at ease... no matter how rough trials were. They know Allah is always with them and to Him is the final return. Even atheists, and those who have been busied with the decorations of these world and have came at a point in life where they doubt if Allah exists... if they were on Titanic when it was about to sink, they will all plead to God to save them. The thick layer of atheism around their hearts will break instantly. It reminds me of Pharoah when Allah made his boat sink. He was an ardent opposer of Prophet Moses as... but when his boat was sinking, he finally admitted that he believed in the God of Moses. But it was too late.

Do we really want to wait until it is too late. That's humans weakness. We procrastinate. But it all comes from syaithan. My friend told me once that it was too early to change, as at such a nice age... - teen age, there were so many things to see and do. Or maybe they haven't received "God's call" yet. If they die tomorrow, and God asked them why didn't they obey him, and they gave that reason,...hmmm... I wonder. Islam came down to eliminate other sort of submissions, except to Him. During the jahiliyyah times, those submissions would include their Gods.. Latta and Uzza. But these modern times there are new sort of submissions, such as cars, money, big houses, big positions..etc. One would just remember Allah during prayer, and after that life would go on as if Islam was just on the prayer mat, and was not practical to be implemented outside. If Prophet Muhammad pbuh saw was one reason for Islam to reign supreme, than Allah would have just made him live forever. But Propet Muhammad pbuh died, and Allah left the Quran instead.

There are 1.3 billion muslims and 34 million jews. If each muslim became a mosquitoe, and attacked Bush, or 50% attacked Bush and 50% attacked Ariel Sharon, they would both die wouldn't you think? That's just a mosquitoe, not a bee.

Muslims today are weaker than mosquitoes.
