all in all, i can sum up everything to this: my heart and eyes are now open. my mind is thinking beyond myself. and fear to the One and Only, is overpowering. repentance is a normal habit.. and endless.
back to the awareness week, i have to applause the Islamic Society for inviting all these awesome speakers, Yusha Evans and Abdurraheem Green, 2 converted Muslims, who, MashaAllah, have astounding knowledge of this religion that i was born and breed with. they are just mind blowing. never can anyone paint a picture of the apocalypse the way Abdurraheem Green did. not that ive really known about it before, but i did hear bits and pieces. it gives me this mixed feelings - fear and terror, and also excited and happy. but whos to know, if i lived to see the day that i'm going to be one of the Believers, and whos to say that i wont fall for what the Dajjal preached? Nauzubillah.
i have to say, i am no perfect human, let alone a perfect Muslim, but i do try my best to be one. there is actually no such thing as balanced. whatever you do, it is supposed to serve the road of Allah, and not for anyone else's satisfaction. the respect that the early generations of Prophet Muhamad (p.b.u.h) get is not because they are trying to acclimitise to the people of their time's culture, but they show this perfect culture for other people to blend in, and follow. but this day, these things doesnt happen. even if it does, there's only VERY FEW of those who practice it. indeed it is hard to start this, especially when we are already comfortable with the lifestyle we are living now, but simply by being aware of our action, and take small baby steps, insyaAllah, we can make this world a better place, especially for the Muslims. thanks to Yusha Evans for this share of knowledge.
jazakallahu khaira.
