Pray


I


اللهم اجعل خشيتك أخوف الأشياء لدينا، واجعل حبك أحب الأشياء إلينا، وما أعطيتنا مما نحب فاجعله قوة لنا فيما تحب، وما زويت عنا مما نحب فاجعله فراغا لنا فيما تحب، اللهم بارك لنا فيما قُدر لنا حتى لا نحب تأخير ما عجلت ولا تعجيل ما أخرت، ولا تذهب طلبنا إلى شيء صرفته عنا، واجعل غنانا في أنفسنا، واجعل رغبتنا فيما عندك




I I got this prayer in an email &i though it is so delicate & Fulfilling, May God grant us all his blessings & mercy

For Granted


Can we take someone or something for granted ?
Can we feel secure about him\her ?
Probably not cause nothing stays constant or for sure .we must always be ready ,give, put effort, develop & evolve .

This is relation wise , work wise , religion wise & generally life wise ,
As a fact if your not going up then your are falling down
.

What does it mean ?




A few weeks ago I lost something of special importance .I bought it as a reminder of a decision I promised myself I would never break .

So does life send us signs or is it simply our mood drifts playing tricks on us ?

When I came to think about it I found out that I had broken the promise I made to myself although I said I would never would. Is it coincidence or is it fate sending me signs I wonder?

Men & women



God almighty created us in pairs so it is the same basis whether a woman/man seeks a man/woman. It’s a number of criteria which reflects who we are .these criteria are either material or virtual wise.

So are men a pack of wolves seeking beauty & the physical part, Ya in some cases but any average minded man knows that beauty fades away & might in fact be a curse . From the physical part a man needs to like his partner & that is easy & in fact is only a small part of what he needs & Is also important for the woman .

So let us disregard the man versus the woman concept & ideology & look at it from a pure personality perspective.

Generally we all need a respecting supportive personality cherishing loving personality capable of sharing & self development not a self centered & consuming type .

How do we find this personality ?
It’s simply we seek the criteria not the person .seek religion not only as rituals but as morals & concepts as a 1st step , then a common aim in life what do u both want in the end .Followed by that is the stage of putting effort ,making bilateral compromises & being ready to give before taking .
With the previous criteria present compatibility is created & love is born in a very rich environment & the small plant becomes a strong & beautiful tree ;
a tree of life

Putting the pieces together
A lot of major events r happening around us & in a very strange sequence .it makes me think ,hey what’s happening. The tragic death of about 1000 people in the sinking of the salam ferry , the Danish cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم.& the controversy & rage it caused , The impending pandemic of the avian H5N1 strain of bird flu & its expected transformation into a human influenza virus , how people united as one in encouraging the Egyptian soccer team in the African cup league not being able to do so in more relevant things ,All the upraising events in the Palestinian ,Iraq & Iran issues. The pieces of the puzzle r coming together ,But r we too blind to see it Or are we too stupid to understand it . If we want to blame anyone then it’s ourselves for being so passive & negative not anyone else. At least the American, the Danish , The Israelis & the European union knows what they want & are taking steps to achieve it ,supporting each other against us even if it is unfair or wrong. What r we doing either being passive or individual or minor group reactions which r too weak to do major actions .Those who are afraid & are being passive is it that you don’t cae or is it because u r afraid ,afraid of what ? ………..death well it isn’t so bad in the end & look to those who died in that ferry ,look to all those who will die in the impending pandemic ,those who died in car accidents or disease .I might die today ,u might die tomorrow who knows. well if it is death anyway well what’s there to be afraid of .تعددت الأسباب و الموت واحد “United we stand divided we fall” lets all be one hand before it is too late stop thinking about You & start thinking about us I end my talk with some versus from the Holy Quran

( )لَهُ مُعَقِّبَاتٌ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِ يَحْفَظُونَهُ مِنْ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُغَيِّرُ مَا بِقَوْمٍ حَتَّى يُغَيِّرُوا مَا بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ وَإِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِقَوْمٍ سُوءاً فَلا مَرَدَّ لَهُ وَمَا لَهُمْ مِنْ دُونِهِ مِنْ وَالٍ) (الرعد:11)

)أَلَمْ يَأْنِ لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَنْ تَخْشَعَ قُلُوبُهُمْ لِذِكْرِ اللَّهِ وَمَا نَزَلَ مِنَ الْحَقِّ وَلا يَكُونُوا كَالَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ مِنْ قَبْلُ فَطَالَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْأَمَدُ فَقَسَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَكَثِيرٌ مِنْهُمْ فَاسِقُونَ) (الحديد:16)



)كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَائِقَةُ الْمَوْتِ وَإِنَّمَا تُوَفَّوْنَ أُجُورَكُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَمَنْ زُحْزِحَ عَنِ النَّارِ وَأُدْخِلَ الْجَنَّةَ فَقَدْ فَازَ وَمَا الْحَيَاةُ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا مَتَاعُ الْغُرُورِ) (آل عمران:185)
)وَهُوَ الْقَاهِرُ فَوْقَ عِبَادِهِ وَيُرْسِلُ عَلَيْكُمْ حَفَظَةً حَتَّى إِذَا جَاءَ أَحَدَكُمُ الْمَوْتُ تَوَفَّتْهُ رُسُلُنَا وَهُمْ لا يُفَرِّطُونَ) (الأنعام:61)
)كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَائِقَةُ الْمَوْتِ وَنَبْلُوكُمْ بِالشَّرِّ وَالْخَيْرِ فِتْنَةً وَإِلَيْنَا تُرْجَعُونَ) (الانبياء:35)

)وَجَاءَتْ سَكْرَةُ الْمَوْتِ بِالْحَقِّ ذَلِكَ مَا كُنْتَ مِنْهُ تَحِيدُ) (قّ:19)

)نَحْنُ قَدَّرْنَا بَيْنَكُمُ الْمَوْتَ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوقِينَ) (الواقعة:60)

)قُلْ إِنَّ الْمَوْتَ الَّذِي تَفِرُّونَ مِنْهُ فَإِنَّهُ مُلاقِيكُمْ ثُمَّ تُرَدُّونَ إِلَى عَالِمِ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ فَيُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ) (الجمعة:8)

)الَّذِي خَلَقَ الْمَوْتَ وَالْحَيَاةَ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلاً وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْغَفُورُ) (الملك:2)

The Evil eye


a comment on "Talk to me" topic for this week
We must admit it exists because it does, but the tricky part is how to deal with it .we can’t refer every unfortunate event to it cause it will be meaningless. if we see the big picture ; it’s all fate ,What is meant to happen will happen whatever the cause whether it is the evil eye or misfortune or negligence or whatever So we must go on doing what we do but trying not hurt other people feelings specially if they don’t have what we have, trying to help them out & sharing what we have is a very advanced &merciful stage it’s one of the most basic morals that The Islamic religion teaches us .of course there are some verses from our Holy Quran & some prayers Our beloved Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلمtaught us.
Another tricky part is about satisfaction not being envious ourselves .its ok to look up to things wishing we had them, working & praying for them but not sitting back crying wishing that those who we envy become deprived from what they have. & there is also a simple word we must say when we see something so eye capturing or makes us jealous & envious ما شاء الله . Simply it’s all about self satisfaction & being thankful for what we have from one side & having faith, believing in fate & being passionate & considerate from the other side.

Is this love ?


It’s Valentine once again ,Love is all around ;well I do hope so .I see all kinds of gifts looking so lovely ,I see couples hanging out together ,very passionate words in cards or messages. Is this love ?. & if it is love is it true ?’ Will it last forever?
Is love what we feel when we see someone so unique , so beautiful , so perfect through our eyes . Is it how our hearts goes upbeat when we are with them & we want to be with them forever .
Have you ever wondered when u see an old couple barely able to walk so in love together so caring about each other .how heart broken they become when one of them is gone ,how much they cherish this partner & how has his memorizes live forever . That’s true love that conquered time & age , true love that came through the huge waves of life the ups & the downs .love that saw through into the soul & gave no account for the looks ,love that its seed grew into the love & admiration of their children whom grew up seeing how much their parent loved & supported each other .
I saw couples whom had many differences & even no love at the beginning but they knew the qualities that matters when they choose each other .The seed grew into a beautiful fragile plant which kept on growing & growing till it became an elegant tree full of shining roses .
Never love the outside but love the inside the soul ,the moralities & the living conscious ,love the religious virtues & the deeds .nobody is perfect even if he\she is your soul mate there is never never a perfect soul mate there are always defects & that’s where love gets in to fill in the gaps to melt the two souls in one mould

Do not hesitate if you really love someone in the true love sense; go for it 7 don’t hesitate or be afraid however you see it difficult & far .For u may regret it all your life & together step by step you will together overcome whatever comes. May your love last forever more.

Another page in the book


Do we measure our lives by seconds minutes & hours? , or is it measured by what we gain & what we learn ?, or is it the moments of true happiness ?, may be it is what we do that makes a difference that counts ?, is it about how much we love & how much we are loved or Is it about our relation & connection to our creator God Almighty ? Is it about whether we understood what life is & why we were created or Is it about knowing the ultimate question “who we really are?”

All these questions are running round & round in my head .I’m thinking about where I stand ,some people envy me others don’t ,some people like me & A lot don’t ,me myself I’m not really pleased about where I stand right now .my birthday was a couple of days back & it really made all these questions so alive & imposing. How can I really measure my life? Page after page & life is running by so quickly & I don’t know how many pages are left ? I suddenly go it, it’s a bit from here & there; at times it’s simply seconds & minutes, at other times it’s an enjoyable chat with a dear friend, or making someone feel better by helping ,or even putting a smile on the face of someone u don’t know . it’s also when u accomplish something good for yourself. It’s when u sense true love even though it may not be last forever .its when u cry for missing someone dear. It’s when u feel so connected to God so pure & sincere It’s when u sit back relaxed knowing u did what should be done. Life may be measured when the people who love you appreciate what u gave them & what they learnt from you ,how much u loved them & how much they’ll cherish you after you are gone .

Together here tonight


Two hearts , two souls, two minds
Together here tonight
To prove how much we care
A beautiful love we share
Although it’s been a long road
It seems now too short
For now we’re so close
These long walks we had
The smiles & the whispers we said
Moments which are a life time
A dream which is so true
& now I promise you
No matter how dark it gets
No matter how long it takes
I’ll love & cherish you
I’ll take care of you
I’ll be you
Our loved ones are here around us
Love & care surrounds us
For now it’s time my love
The two of us eternally one

Specially dedicated for M & R For their Engagment, May God Bless u always

Sometime Somewhere


I wrote this one a while ago


Where have you been
I’ve been waiting for you
I tried reaching you
but now it is too late
for I’m back
back in the ring again
I thought I saw it in you
Something so beautiful & pure
But now it’s too late
Now I must do things
I must feel things
I may have lost myself
Somewhere between here & then
Is this my fate
Or am I just dreaming
Is this my path
Or am I deluding
May be it’s my fault
or am paying the price
Things I did
Things I should have
Life sometimes is so strange
So sour when u taste it
Beautiful when u see it
I’m burning inside
I need to shout
I need to cry
Torn by different thoughts
Must I kill my heart
& live like a machine
dead but alive
a soul that is so dry
why is it that
when u need
there is always a sacrifice
when u fall
u must pay the price
although it seems now so dark
we must foresee what’s ahead
I believe its true
the mind isn’t too wise
the soul isn’t too blind
A heart will always shine
Fate will never seize
Nor destiny will ever ease
To render us so vulnerable
Weak may be true
Yet hope & light are reborn
To give us 2nd chances
Don’t ever hesitate
Do what u have to do
& be sure
we’ll be together
sometime somewhere

A Sad Story



When I was a young boy
I had a couple of friends
Together we used to play
Lots of joy & tons of fun
Having a jolly time now & then
Fate played its game
& we went in different ways
Where are they now ?
A question
I wish I knew it’s answer
A story repeats itself
Every now & then
That’s why I’m afraid
Someday its gonna be
Our turn my friends
I hate farewells
I hate goodbyes
I wish we could
Always be together
But eventually
Whether we liked or not
We’ll go in different ways
With a promise
God willing in the end
We’ll be together forever

سائح في دنيا الله

A couple of months ago I got a book as a gift from a, very dear person to my heart ,but I didn’t get the chance to read it except this week. The writer who is a known journalist who pasted away recently may God bless him with his mercy “Mr. Abd Al Wahab Metawe3”,speaks about his experience through his life in traveling to different countries all over the world ,his writings is very simple with a very loveable story telling attitude all through the book .All through the 310 pages I read non stop I felt as I were experiencing the different journeys mixing with different cultures in a very knowledgeable but amusing experience .What really caught me off my foot were the 3 last chapters ,the 1st talking about his first visit to Al Masged Al Haram in way that nearly made me cry ,the 2nd one talking about how difficult are farewells specially to people who u really like which hit me so hard cause I my self hate goodbyes & I quote
" صاحب كما شئت فأنت مفارق".
the 3rd is about how loved ones react ,feel & do in moments of goodbyes so overwhelming emotions , wooow. This book is a must read .

Visions

Do u have a vision in life ? An important question to be answered ,but before we answer it , u need to know a couple of things who u really are?, what are u capable of ?, what do u really want ? , where do u stand now?, where do u wanna go ? What is the purpose of your lie? . if you know these facts ? r u really sure ? If u r not really sure then your vision will eventually fall apart. When you know the answers sincerely then u can have a vision & u can make it come true one day .since good created this world billions & billions of people lived & died, most of them forgotten & faded away .only those who had a true vision still stand high above although they are gone ages ago ,so do u have a vision ?
