Asalamu alikum wa rag matullahi wa barakatu ...
Jumuah Mubarak ...
yes its that time of the week... the begginning of the w/e .. and the day of all days... ALhumdulillah...
News making headlines this week:
1. Girl survives plane crash ... just wasnt her time ... Allah knows best
2. Docters go on STrike ... if you do get fired... dont stress... bafana bafana needs some good strikers? heheh Lol:-)
3. Michael Jackson to be immortalised ... his memory will live forever...
and it was just that what i was thinking about ...
theKINGofPOP
sO MICHAEL jACKSON' Death brings into perspective many things... and reiterates that DEATH can come at any time... and comes anybody ...
DEATH in general should give us a WAKE UP CALL ... i know that thier is some irony in that statement ... but ... as the world mourns the death of a POP star ... his fans and the people int he music industry say his legend will live on ... reading the newspapers and listening to the interviews ... you dont have to be a rocket scientist to know that MJ had a great effect on people's lives...he inspired people and people will remmeber him ... perhaps for as long as they can...
I always look for an angle... as sad as any death is... we have to rememebr that as muslims we take encouragement from Allah swt... and believe in HIs MErcy ... as long as we do good and ask for forgiveness ...
" AND remind O Muhammed (SAW) ( by teaching the Quraan), for verily reminder benefits the believer" [ Al Quraan:55]
The Quraan is our source of encouragement and inspiration ... in it we find guidance as revealed to our Prophet ( Peace and Blessing upon Him ...SAW) ... So we should keep ourselves occupied with the Quraan ... in doing so we not only remain in a state of remembracne of Allah Most High, but in fact we will familiarise ourselves with its teachings ... and once we know what it teaches ... then it can have an even greater effect on us... one that will last a life time... and beyond... forever immortalised in our hearts and minds...
The reality is that the Quraan will outlive us all as it has outlived others before...
and it will continue to effect peoples lives... long after we are gone.
the best we can do... is take from it as much as we can...
And Allah knows Best...
May Allah swt protect and guide us all, ameen.
Peace. Love. Chocolate cake... i LUS FOR chocOlate cake...mmmh:-)
