ToF #1

Assalamu'alaikum :)

As promised, here are few excerpts from ToF, a lil bit here and there, doodled on my ugly notebook with illegible handwriting hehh.


In the entertainment slot, you don't expect rap musics filling the atmosphere of the Plenary Hall. Using poetry as a measure to deliver da'awah (Masha Allah), this brother got me all teary.

The beauty of poetry (without musics) is that you can really really listen to each word uttered. And the silence let you alone feel it down to your bones of what is being delivered, digest the words, and understand. Hence the tears. It's like an acoustic performance, in simpler words.

In da'awah, one must use his wisdom and it is also of utmost importance to use the best intention, Lillahita'ala. The problem with us is that, we always think that we can delay. We always, and I mean, always think that things can be done tomorrow and days after. It is always in our minds that "I still have more times to do goods". But little do we know that death awaits us all.

In his poetry, Brother Muslim also mentioned that we should constantly work on our faith, to seek knowledge for when our faith increase, our imaan will automatically increase too. At times we will work too hard to seek knowledge but then at some point of times we stop and give up when we see life has no changes on us, not knowing what He has to offer, Masha Allah..

Also, we must not forget the purpose. Often that we forget the reasons why we are here in this world, why we are created, that makes us all lost in this life that is worthless. This reminds me of Surah Al-A'la, Verse 16-17 ;

Yet you prefer this life, although the life to come is better and more lasting.

Therefore, let us all make du'a ; 

May Allah fill my heart with sincerity. If this is not good for me, take it away from me.

Wallahu'alam.

To be continued with ToF #2 soon, Insha Allah. I shall call it off. Good night, Assalamu'alaikum :)
