wallahi..for the purchase beyond earth..
Al-firdaus..
the purpose of you and i..


having Allah by your side does not imply
sailing without a storm, but it implies reaching
safely the destination regardless the obstacles..

walking down the path of life, things may not go the way we want it
to..worked extremely hard for an exam, only to achieve mediocre
results.. or putting hours into an assignment to find the file
rendered corrupted on the day of submission..huhu..

alhamdulillah ala kulli hal..
you know how back in the old days at school,
when we were taught that quran dan sirah rasulullah
haruslah dijadikan panduan hidup sorta thing?
its one of the best medicine to depression..
seriously=)

i was pondering..how all these may be negative in my eyes..
but really Allah does not see it that way..

in Uhud, Muslims lost..big time..
losing in WAR..
what can be even more so distraughting??
WAR..
in our eyes, winning Uhud may be the best thing
for Allah's deen, ya?
i mean, imagine, Uhud was at the early stage of
Islam..

losing implies losing LIVES and material wealth which
from our judgment would be crucial especially at the
early stage of Islam.. losing also implied boosting confidence
among those who had pure hatred for Islam to thenceforth,
openly reject/attack the Muslims..
losing seemingly would pave way for dire and far-reaching consequences..


but really..
if winning was indeed best for Allah's Deen, if indeed
winning was what really mattered to Allah and His Deen, then He would
never have let the Muslims lose the battle in the first place..

there was obviously something else which mattered
much much more to Allah..something that
may not be much in our eyes, but IS in His..

it is the piety in the hearts..


ya Allah..i beg You by all the beautiful names
You have named Yourself, endow upon us the
beauty of taqwa and iman.. ya Allah.. ya Allah..
there is nothing we want more than to shade under Your
Shade on the Day there will be no other shade then Yours..
there is nothing that we want more than to
gaze upon Your Magnificent Face..
ya Allah..

Wallahi.. for a purchase beyond earth..
Al-firdaus..
