what man is a man who does not make the world better

in the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, Most Merciful

You see, none of us choose our end, really. its our actions that would decide.
no one wants to end up in a hot, burning place. we all wanna have a good ending. yet in this world, there's too much excuses, too much temptations, too much satisfactions too much demands to be fulfilled. all put us in dilemmas. old ppl say diluah mati emak, ditelan mati bapak. so we doubt.

but would all that compensate? we neglect what Allah told us to do, only to please ppl in this world, of which, we wont know if we will ever gonna meet them in the next life; the everlasting destination. no its not worth it. so we try as much to abide what syariah has prescribed for us, try as much not to be tangled up in a conflict between the interest of our surroundings, and of course, Allah's interest. what about our interest? well Allah says if we protect Allah's interest then he'll protect what's ours. only then that we convinced. that its the right choice. of course it is. but Shaitan as always, whispering all their sweet destructive advices. suggesting if we do this, only once, then its okay what~.. their whispers forming becoming our own excuses when we debating within ourselves whether or not we should do this, or do that, our omissions, our actions, our inactions.

so its not easy. it never is. and not going to be. thats why this world is a test. for us all. and a test wont ever be easy will it.. pointless it will be if it is easy. thats where our guidance comes in. Allah has already provide for us Quran n Sunnah so that we wont go astray. then again its up to us whether to take the guidance or resort to any other options that blinded us in this life. in this temporary life, temporary world. at the end of the day, our actions will define whether we follow the syariah, or we dont. follow our hearts, or our heads? its our souls that we are protecting.

i once heard/read sumwhere they say if we're doubting whether wat we are doing is wrong/right, then ask our hearts. if it feels comfortable, then its a good thing. if we feel uneasy about it, then forget bout it. but then if our hearts are kotor already, then no use lah this method. (baru teringat rupenye mcm dalam nasyid hijjaz tuh. hehe)

hehe just a thought...

****

A king may move a man.
A father may claim a son.
But remember that,
even when those who move you be kings or men of power,
your soul is in your keeping alone.

When you stand before God, you cannot say,
''But l was told by others to do thus'',
or "that virtue was not convenient at the time''.
This will not suffice.
Remember that.

There, at the end of the world,
you are not what you were born,
but what you have within yourself to be.

-quoted from Kingdom of Heaven
