Nufas..InsyaAllah you’ll find your way

Dear Nufas, though I do not know you personally, I know that you are having such a difficult time now..All I can say is,InsyaAllah you’ll find your way.May Allah give you strength and fortitude now, always and forever =)
This song is specially dedicated to you.

Everytime you feel like you cannot go on
You feel so lost
That your so alone
All you is see is night
And darkness all around
You feel so helpless
You can’t see which way to go
Don’t despair and never loose hope
Cause Allah is always by your side

Insha Allah x3
Insya Allah you’ll find your way

Everytime you can make one more mistake
You feel you can’t repent
And that its way too late
Your’re so confused, wrong decisions you have made
Haunt your mind and your heart is full of shame

Don’t despair and never loose hope
Cause Allah is always by your side
Insha Allah x3
Insya Allah you’ll find your way
Insha Allah x3
Insya Allah you’ll find your way

Turn to Allah
He’s never far away
Put your trust in Him
Raise your hands and pray
OOO Ya Allah
Guide my steps don’t let me go astray
You’re the only one that showed me the way,
Showed me the way x2
Insha Allah x3
Insya Allah we’ll find the way


p/s:Anyway..Thanks to Ayub. Because of him, I know this song. For me, it has such a touching lyric =).

That’s Life

Sometimes, Life seems to be very difficult and cruel to some extent. Oh Yes...it really is. Lately, this is basically how I feel..Astaghfirullah..May Allah forgive me..As human being, definitely at one point in life we would face difficulties and drawbacks. It might be painful, distressful and tormenting inside out. However, if we look at it on a positive side, we would know that life itself is a test for us. Life in this world is supposed to be seen as an opportunity and not a liability. Opportunity in the sense that God gives us chance to become the trustees on earth and to fulfill the ‘mission’ that God had decreed. Huh...sounds easy, but it is not the case anyway. That is why, to fulfill this mission, God had bestowed upon us two things i.e. the Holy Qur’an and the Sunnah (the tradition) of our last and final messenger, prophet Muhammad, may peace and blessings be upon him. As long as we hold up onto these two things, our last prophet had promised us that we won’t be astray. Y-E-S. He did promise that. The calamities, the hardship and the difficulties that we are facing with would not be something sweet as far as what our eyes can see. Definitely it isn’t. However, it is because of such hardship that we may find the true reality of life. For instance, through depression, we know that how weak human soul is and we also know that it needed some external element to soothe such feeling. Through calamities, we know that we have no control or power on nature. What more on the massive changes on whether that took place throughout our life time. These and many more examples tell us that such hardship or difficulties are not meant to make us seen as insignificant in the eyes of God, rather it meant to teach us the realities of life.

A man in his book had once stated that going through the test of life is analogous to taking an examination. In fact it is seen as a way of measuring our ‘worth’ in terms of capacity for hard work and thinking. He further said that “We all love our children and we do not consider our insisting that they work hard through school and university as a sign of lack of love. We all see our children ‘suffer’ through the numerous examinations, not as something ‘cruel’ to them, but as a necessary step towards being educated and securing a more assured future. Some of us even pay to get our child ‘punched and kicked’ in an after school tae-kwan-do lesson ,all in the name of shaping the child’s character and making him/her an all round better person”.
Interesting isn’t it?. InsyaAllah, this can be such a timely reminder for you, me and we. =)
Allah says in the Holy Qur’an:

286. On no soul doth Allah place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns. (Pray:) "Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget or fall into error; Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which Thou Didst Lay on those before us; Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out Our sins, and grant us Forgiveness. have Mercy on us. Thou art Our Protector; help us against those who stand against faith."

Qur’an 2:286

About Muhammad Asad:

Muhammad Asad’s name figures prominently on the roll of 20th-century English-language Muslim thinkers. Born as Leopold Weiss into a Polish family of strong Jewish background, he was a gifted young writer and adventurous traveler who journeyed to the East to discover Islam. The result of his travels is a highly charged and brilliantly written autobiography, The Road to Mecca. He found the Muslim world an unexpected tonic: its complexities, temperament and sense of spiritual security intrigued him. Over the decades that followed, he became the most articulate and passionate of Muslim scholars and writers, devoted to the revival of his faith and its reconciliation with the modern world.He had also undertaken a translation of Sahih al-Bukhari, the collected books of Prophetic traditions, but all his translations except one were destroyed during the chaos that followed World War II.

At 80, he completed his translation and commentary of the Qur’an, The Message of the Qur’an.

The Message of the Qur'an is widely recognised as among the best English translations and commentaries of the Qur'an and comparable to the famous works of Pickthall, Yusuf Ali and Daryabadi. His rendering is simple and straightforward. Although widely known as a proponent of conservative Islam, his translation departs from the traditional exegetic approaches and reflects his deep knowledge of Jewish and Christian scriptures.
Asad's work however is difficult to obtain and expensive. The work is published in a bulky format, and is hindered by the use of small typeface. In the last three years, Islamic Book Trust began the task of re-issuing this important work in a new and attractive typeset and beautifully bound. It also boasts of a comprehensive index and uses the standard Uthmani Qur'anic script

So much about the circumstances of my becoming a Muslim. Since then I was asked, time and again: “Why did you embrace Islam? What was it that attracted you particularly?”- and I must confess: I don’t know of any satisfactory answer. It was not any particular teaching that attracted me, but the whole wonderful, inexplicably coherent structure of moral teaching and practical life programme. I could not say, even now, which aspect of it appeals to me more than any other. Islam appears to me like a perfect work of architecture. All its parts are harmoniously conceived to complement and support each other; nothing is superfluous and nothing lacking, with the result of an absolute balance and solid composure. Probably this feeling that everything in the teachings and postulates of Islam is in its proper place, has created the strongest impression on me. There might have been ,along with it , other impressions also which today it is difficult for me to analyse. After all, it was a matter of love; and love is composed of many things ;of our desires and our loneliness, of our high aims and our shortcomings, of our strength and our weakness. So it was in my case
