Salam U Alaikum


this time i wanted ur opinions about a very important subject which is a big issue for us all without even being aware of it as we should.

We, being Muslims should always seek for wat is best. we should always try to change to gain a better life even if its not for us, for our offsprings we ought to spend our effort. we have smth good in our hand , but, this cant benefit us till our end, it has to be developed. even traditions change cos if they dnt, they will have no meaning for the younger generations since they havent lived in the time when this tradition was new to all. the philosopher of yestirday maybe concidered as a normal person for today, not cos he is not an important person anymore, but cos wat he found in his era and was new, is now smth simple that many know. they strived for us so that we could reach this place without even knwoing about it. many of them became well known only after they had departed life.

let us not say that i cant cos we all can do if we have the will to do so, we all have an area that we can establish much. our problem is not knowing where to start otherwise we have all the tools that r required even if not, we can do if we want to. there r lots of examples of ppl who have invented... albeit they faced many obstacles.


wat i really want is to come up with a way that we can make our daily life as fruitfull with assorted types of actvities... that could benefit us and others if possibles... i want us to have a different today than yestirday and a different tomorrow from today...
IF POSSIBLE

PLS TAKE IN TO ACCOUNT THAT NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE IF WE STRIVE FOR IT.

Yes i think the same, one brother once told me that when a day is exactly the same like the previous and the next is also the same we have to notice that a Problem is with us. We muslims know that everyday has to be different, we have to look for knowledge and to teach to others.
We have to live our lives around islam, not to put islam around our lives. We have to say 'i wont to this because i have to pray' and not say 'i wont pray because i have to do other thing'. Everyday we have to improve our deen and be better and ask help and Knowledge to Allah SWT.
Allah'a emanet ol kız.

MashaAllah Brother Dae Dragon and Brother Osman...
But such sound advice could go to deaf ears... There is a solution... If possible, do something here... Lets participate in this together... You guys start something, to improve our deen... I am sure everyone will put their hand in this... What do you say... For me Knowledge is very important, the more the merrier... And if to do with our Deen, why not...

Plz think abt this...

JazakAllah...

Selam aleyküm kardeşlerim
İn fact that this post was opened is the first thing that we can do, start to calling the Ummah to be together again, İn this days people separte because Cultural or different islam tariqa but, the first thing we have to look is not if he is Sunni, Sufism, etc, we have to say 'ELHAMDULİLLA WE ARE MUSLİMS!' and the words that make us together are 'La İlaha ilALLAH Muhammadan RasulAllah'. This word have to make our hearts one!
And for improve our deen we have to help each other and fight against our nAfs, sometimes we think that we know a lot ant this can make us stop learning, i think sometimes we have to say 'i dont know' because after this words inşallah you will say 'now i know!'.
Fethullah Gülen says 'if we want to reform the world, we have to reform ourselves first, To reconciliate our spirit with our body'.
İ think we have to start talking to new muslims and young muslims and make them return to the path of light, the path of ALLAH.
Allah Hafiz

Thats what I meant when I said such sound advice could go to deaf ears... People don't have time for the truth brother... Even when people see/read it they ignore it...

I am very disappointed on our Ummah... Why People are so blind to the truth...

What a tragedy... If anyone would have told them there is a big gossip here I bet they would all be here... lolzzz

lolz, i think i have broke the record of being called as a brother, i am a sister ;)
sorry for opening such a post and leaving u like that.




thanks to those who replied to the post and showed their enthusiasm to the subject. truly this is an issue that should concern us all regardless the age and state. most of us may know wats the way out from this routine. our problem is not knowing or not, our problem is not following or being aware of wat we know. we dnt differentiate between knowing and understanding. once a sister had a post about Bangladesh and said that the ppl there pray but they dnt know wats the meaning of it, they dnt know wat they r speaking in front of Allah. or even if we know these, we dnt know where to start, we have the tools in our hand but wat we need is motivation from each other. We may not always find someone besides us that could provide it, but this doesn’t mean that we can take it as an excuse and retreat. i wanted to repeat this last point cos its very crucial. it should be highlighted in our minds.

we just repeat ourselves like parrots wat we have learnt, this is how the problem starts. when we dnt know wat we r doing even we r busy all day with this or that. or we say we r too old, too young, not qualified for this…blah blah blah the list can continue forever if we pay heed to it, we find out its about self esteem. the ppl who dnt try for the best, dnt believe in themselves they need support. underestimating oneself is the biggest evil thought that has been falling on us which has affected us to great extent.




if u dnt move forward u cant say that i am staying still. there is not such a thing called as this since the whole world moves around u, if u stay in ur place this means u go backward. "if urr not standing against the enemy, ur helping the enemy.



who can say that i dnt desire for a better life that i am living? by this, i dnt mean to be unthankful for wat Allah has bestowed on us. it’s the feeling of always striving for the better; Allah will not help someone who doesn’t help himself. now we can say that we have hope, cos having desire is the first step for starting any thing.







“Hell is surrounded with whims and waton desires, while the Garden is surrounded with hardships.”



i hope i ddnt disappoint u more sis Sana:) ur right about wat u said, but this shouldn’t disappoint us in away that we stop trying. this should make us more eager to go forward, cos we know that this move is needed more than anything. but smth to else which is very important is that we should first examine ourselves then others. everything starts from a point and then is developed. if we start from ourselves, i dnt think the act of others will affect us that much. cos we will be busy trying to do wats right. and when u do this Allah will help u to spread it too even u dnt know, ur character will reflect wats inside u.


Messenger of Allah, (PBUH) said: "When Allah loves a slave, He calls Jibril (Gabriel) and says: `I love so-and-so; so love him.' And then Jibril loves him. Then he (Jibril) announces in the heavens saying: Allah loves so-and-so; so love him; then the inhabitants of the heavens (the angels) also love him; and then people on earth love him. And when Allah hates a slave, He calls Jibril and says: `I hate so-and-so, so hate him.' Then Jibril also hates him. He (Jibril) then announces amongst the inhabitants of heavens: `Verily, Allah hates so-and-so, so you also hate him.' Thus they also start to hate him. Then he becomes the object of hatred on the earth also".
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].





now i like this question very much: how many can answer frankly?
"if u had a chance to start from the beginning, will have the courage to take it?"



"O ALLAH, I ask you for your love and the love of those who love you .And I ask you to guide me to the work that makes me attain your love. O ALLAH, make my love to you more beloved to me than my wealth, children and cold water.
