Ijtimak Malaysia 2009

It is so wonderful to be at the World Ijtimak 2009 at KLIA Quarters recently. I met my long time friends which I have not met for more than 20 years at the Ijtimak. It is the blessing from Allah. To name a few here, like Razali Kamisan, Idris Karim, Fuad Nordin and few others. Also to mention here one of my friend at FB like Niezam Abdullah. All these are possible just because Allah wants it to happen. All are based on the kudrat of Allah swt.

This world is like a prison for the believer, meaning that the way a prisoner isn’t free and is bound by rules, the affair of a believer is the same, this world is not one of freedom for them but one of rules and obligations towards Allah swt. The believer at all times keeps these rules and obligations in front of him. The way a prisoner doesn’t make his home the prison the believer is the same, where by he never sees this world as his home, but as a temporary dwelling full of trials until he reaches his final home of Jannah.

For a disbeliever the matter is on the complete other end of the scale, he sees the life of this world as jannah and does whatever his heart desires. He sees this world as his final home and acts accordingly to it, he pays no heed to the warnings that are given to him and does not submit to the will and obligations of Allah. He sees this world as his for the taking and makes it his goal to acquire as much as he can and to derive pleasure from it, due to this he sees this world as a place of reward and becomes blind to the reality of its evil and hereafter.

Note:
When thinking about it, many non-believers do not understand how muslims can devote a life to a higher being, how we as muslims can easily put on hold our lives for the sake of Allah.

At times explaining to a non-believer seems futile, but patience is critical in these matters, remember that to this day; Religion to them has always been a side dish, where as islam is the full 7 course meal.

Islam governs our lives, and we are happy for it to do so. As, if our lives were left within our own hearts desires we would truly be lost.

We see this life as temporary and our belief enables us to give up desires for a higher cause, for we know we will be rewarded.

Many times it takes a lot of time and tonnes of patience in order to be able to make a non-believer see this. We need to continuously make dua to Allah to guide those whom we try to call to Islam and make dua that Allah instill in us the correct a’dab to be able to do dakwah of His deen.

May Allah guides us All, insyaAllah.

Amin.
