THE REALITY : the art of being honest with ourselves
Once upon a time ,a man driving a car, breaks the signal. When cops ask him to give the fine he said ,"I did'nt know the rules".
The cops in a bad temper ask him if this is true then who gave you the license to drive .That driver was egoistic , the way cops asked him this question ,hurt him .At this he replied ,"You know what,My car my rules".
Now I want you to imagine a world with no traffic rules and traffic police.Anyone can drive as he or she wants .Imagine the chaos
This the same chaos that is happenng in today's youth life.
We call ourselves muslims ,aashiq-e-Rasool ,Sunni . In bio of insta,fb,whatsapp people write like ALHAMDULLIAH proud muslim .But if there is a scenario of lowering the gaze ,giving meher on time,to do pardah or not to listen to the music ,praying 5 time salah ,where these claim go . Most of us excuses to ourselves like I just leave the fajr prayer only ,music is good to feel relaxed ,look!! like this everything is haram haram haram .We say when I'll get old, I'll repent .Although who knows about hereafter just enjoy today .Yup I know " kullu nafin zaikatul maut"(every soul has to taste death) ,I'll repent tomorrow.
But who promise you tomorrow?
My intentions is not to tell you that we are not deserving to be a Muslim anymore. Everybody is at different level of deen .But in today's era ,most people's iman get constant just because we don't want to know more about our deen .That's why it's began to decrease sometimes too.
Like in the car example I give earlier ,if we drive our lives without knowing about the instructions i.e. THE QURAN ,we will end up in those chaos.
OR....If that driver said that when i'll reach at traffic signal i'll read the instruction .LIKE WE DO, When any problem hits only then we start surfing on the internet about that problem that what Allah swt says about this .This is not wrong although but having intentions that I'll do this only when the problem hits is wrong.
AND ALLAH KNOWS THE BEST
This is the first blog in this “The Reality” series .In the upcoming blogs I'll discuss about the things that ALLAH swt told us to do and not to do .And intentionally or unintentionally we do ,and some question t hat we always have in back of our minds but don't search for them or if we do we don't get the satisfactory answers.
