What I have learned so far...

 Intro

            I'll come to the point without dragging. This post is about building a spiritual side in a Youths Life. The stories ive heard from wise people ,the old people @ the Masjid. The lesson they have learned throughout their lives and what did they regret about the past.

How I see the World

Under Act_ The Freedom Of Speech

The Question

      What is life? Why do we all run after the same thing? The same circle over and over again. Birth, live and Die. The moment we are born in an average Family, it is decided. Go to school, learn, get a job, build a family, look after , then die_ either Young or in old Age. Same goes when we are born Rich, same loop but in a different perspective. 

The Lie

   We all think the life we live, the stories we hear, all would End up like in the movies/ series we watch. But be honest. Did your life turned out exactly like in the movies? We all were fed into believing the world we live, the future we are gonna make will be as what we expected. 

   In my case, in most of our life we get hit by the actual reality. You realize that your life isn't like the movies, isn't like what you were fed into believing. Its actually more scary, more cruel and more challenging than you thought. You would meet people, face challenges, face the actual truth, everything would feel like destroying you. All this time, you were in your comfort zone rather than seeing the actual cruelty of this world.

Stories I heard

  Most of us, have been through too much of injustice. We cry out why is this happening to me? Why? When you try to speak out the truth, you either get ignored or worst you lose everything. You would understand better if I tell you a story ive heard.

Injustice

Think a guy named "Ab". He is the Head of world threating mafia family. Head of the secret society running the world. Every government, every LAW  on his hand. He comes to your home, steals all your money and leave you with nothing. 

He killed, burned down your whole Village. What would you do? How can you get justice? How can you get revenge? You cant. No matter what you do to tell the truth, the truth would be buried. Now how would you make him realize he has done an injustice? What would motive him to own unto his crimes.

The Believe in One God (ALLAH)

What would you say, that you are doing a bad thing. Are you gonna threaten him? No, nothing. All the options you gonna debate of making him realize his crimes will be thrown to ashes. The only thing you could say is_ "You will be judged in the Hereafter. In the Life after Death, God will punish you.". That would make him fear. The fear of God. If you believe in God, if you believe in the hereafter, then you would try your best to live a honest and good life. If the world cant judge or give justice to you, then its unfair. Surely their is a God, their is a Creator. You will get your justice. There is no rich or poor, all will be judge equally of what they did.

Justice

Now I'll come to the justice served part. Ab will be questioned about all of his crimes. He will be judged. Not only just Ab. The people who helped him on his crimes, the people who supported his cruel act. Everyone one of them will be Judged of their Sins. The people he killed, the life he have destroyed, everyone who were harmed by him, will be witnesses for his actions.

Now think, finally everyone stood against Ab, the government even his own kin, they decided to punish him for all his crimes. Will that be enough? Will the punished be equal to killing people, burning down villages, the Families he have destroyed? What would be the best punishment? The most and the final punishment we can give is Death, but still_ will that be enough? NO WAY. That's not even close. As humans we cant give him a punishment equal to his crime. But GOD CAN. If he have killed a million people, in hell_ the hereafter, he would be killed given back life , it would continue a million times and the suffering he's gonna endure will be worse, he would say, please let me Die!!!! No he wouldn't get off that easily, he will suffer for every soul he have destroyed. That's what you called JUSTICE.

The Answer

  Ask yourself, don't you feel like you are living in an illusion? The same loop of story. When you start asking questions, What is Life? What is my purpose on this world? What happens after Death? You would understand, the life we are living is just an illusion. We are mere travelers passing through.

In Islam, the ultimate Objective the goal is to worship the creator. ALLAH (God). Obeying the commands, divine guidelines revealed in the Quran and Following the practice of the Prophet Muhammed PBUH.

In an exam, you will be provided with notes, syllabus and then give the question paper. But in the test of life, we already have the Answer and the Question. The question is "Are we going to enter Jannah (Paradise) or Jahannam(Hell)?" of course with Allah (SWT) mercy. The answer is obvious. Believe and live your life according to

لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله

     Meaning There is no other God but Allah and Mohammad (PBUH) is his prophet.

The solution

 Life can be tough. Things may not appear the way we expected. But we can always control our way of action. The way we see things. No matter how many challenges we fail, no matter how many loses we lose, the suffering we endure, always say "Alhamdulillah".

We always try to fix things without knowing the context of it, live life according to our state of will. That's the problem. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) has showed us the way of life. If we live our lives according to his teachings, with Allah SWT mercy, we can see a better state of living in ourselves.

Yeah there can be ups and downs, but if we truly understand the way of life, we wont be worried so much about it. Remember "We are merely traveler who have been send down to Earth to Take the test of Life". 

We may think why me God, why did you make me suffer? why did I fail? Ive done so much but why me? Yeah even I have felt and said those things. After going through tough situations in my life, years later I'm starting to understand why did I went through all that trouble. The steps, the failures, the suffering all that we have endured so far have made us strong, shaped us to the person who we are right now. 

Always remember;

 Allah does not burden any soul greater than it can bear. For it is what it has earned, and against it is what it has incurred. “Our Lord, do not hold us accountable if we forget or fall into error. Our Lord, do not place on us such a burden as You have placed on those before us.(Quran 2:286)

“And Allah is the best of planners.” – [Quran, 3:54]

“They plan, and Allah plans. Surely, Allah is the Best of planners.” – [Quran, 8:30]

“Allah ˹alone˺ is sufficient ˹as an aid˺ for us and ˹He˺ is the Best Protector.” [Quran, 3:173]

The End

When v questions the purpose of our suffering, remember ,each setback, each stumble, is a brushstroke painting resilience onto the canvas of our lives.

The best ending is not found in the absence of challenges but in the  faith that every trial is a stepping stone towards a destination known only to the Creator.

Let gratitude be our compass, faith our armor, and perseverance our companion, lets live the best of the teaching of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) & obey the commands of ALLAH (SWT).
