Unbalanced Struggle, So Quiet.

 

Allah placed  the foetus in a place of rest, firmly fixed,

and He never unmindful of His Creation, We ask your favor not to touch this creature roughly, Should we lick your feet’s finger tips to act in a humanitarian way . . . . . . . . . Oh no, you Suck up her flesh . . . . . . . Crunch her cartilage!

 

Where is your heart, where is the protection to this very soft –creature,

She died out her peaceful place of rest, in the hard cruncher of harshness expert, . . . . . . . . . . .Where is your heart!

Unbalanced struggle, alone, in a lonely space, so quiet . . . . . . . . .

 

“Then We (Allah) made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood ; Then of that clot We made a (foetus) lump; then We made out of that lump bones and cloth the bones with flesh; then We developed out of it another creature. So blessed be God, the Best to create!”

(Al Mu’minun: 14).                         Bandung, 25 Shafar 1428 H.

 

 

Bow to Allah in Islam.

 

Never will the Satan and the Associates be satisfied with thee unless thou follow their form of misleading concept.

Be steadfast that the Guidance of Allah swt. that is the only Guidance.

Allah swt. has sent down the Holy Book ‘Al Qur’anul Karim, study it as it should be studied, they are the ones that believe therein,

Those who reject faith therein, the loss is their own.

 

They will say that to become the follower of them would be guided to salvation,

Nay, we have to say the Religion of Muhammad saw. is the truth,  joined not gods with the Only God, Allah swt.,

We believe in Allah, and the revelation given to us, and that given to all Prophets from Allah swt., and we bow to Allah in Islam.

 

“So if they believe as ye believe, they are indeed on the right path; but if they turn back, it is they who are in schism; but Allah will  suffice thee as against them, and He is the All-Hearing,

the All Knowing”.

(Al Baqarah: 137)

Obliterate Sins.

 

 Now hath come a clear sign from Allah swt., give just measure and weight, nor withhold from the people the things that are their due

do no mischief on the earth after it has been set in order;

Do not squat on every road, breathing threats, hindering from the path of Allah swt.,

Those who believe in Him, but seeking in it something crooked,

 remember how they were little, and He gave the increasing, and hold in  mind’s eye what was the end of those who did mischief.                      

 

370 Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) say: Just see, can anything of his filthiness remain on (the body of) any one of you if there were a river at his door in which he washed himself five times daily? They said: Nothing of his filthiness will remain (on his body). He said: That is like the five Prayers by which Allah obliterates sins. (Hadith Bukhari Muslim).

 

Many of them dost thou see, racing each other in sin and rancor, and their eating of things forbidden, Evil indeed are the things that they do, It should be someone who remind from the habit of uttering sinful words, Evil indeed are their works.
