Words...

I read those words & I truly liked & felt them.. Although I have a small modification to it, I think we should say ما أصعب & not ما أجمل (if u considered it from the "I" perspective not "people" perspective)

ما أجمل أن تتسامح وأنت تتألم.. وأن تصمت وأنت بحاجه للكلام ..وأن تفرح والحزن يخيم بك... وأن تضحك وعيناك بحاجة للبكاء

Re-Think...

Well, I am writing this story hoping it will affect anyone's behavior the way it did affect mine... Sometimes Allah sends us messages to warn us & teach us.. so I hope that by narrating this, many will "rethink" about every little thing they do in their own lives...

Starting Microsoft Internship, I got to know my new colleagues that I am going to join in the internship, one of them was called "Khalid".. Khalid, a student in Sunderland university studying in AAST, He was successful in his study... Due to the many breaks we had during the sessions, we had the chance to talk many times... we all have common dreams.. we all were thinking about our graduation projects, about making use of our summer vacation, about learning new topics.. we all were thinking about the "Future"..
After spending a month together, one day Khalid didn't come to the training.. a friend called him & here is what we got to know.. Khalid had an accident & was resting in the hospital in a serious case..
Khalid suffered from a coma for a whole month..... & eventually.... he died from 2 weeks.. (Allah yer7amoh)

Well.. I'm speechless.. Khalid's death was a shock for me... every now & then I remember Khalid & I remember the fact that we all could have been Khalid............

Don't wait till your death is a lesson to another one.. Correct your mistakes, Apologize for the people you annoyed & much of more.. be ready to meet Allah in any second..

Finally, Pray for Khalid & for his family to have patience... & pray for Mustafa too (my friend's cousin who was a similar case to Khalid & just died from 2 days..)

Both Mustafa & Khalid were 21 years old.. ".فهل من مدكر؟؟"

How Happy I am?

You Are 68% Happy

You are a very happy person. Generally, you feel content and that all is right with the world. Occasionally, you have a down day - but you have the ability to pick yourself right back up.

Where r we going??

Once I asked my family & some close friends a question.. That question, I couldn't find a clear answer for it.. & yet not all the answers were convincing...
The question was "Is it us who has too many morals, or is it people who lack too many of them ??"
before asking, I thought a lot about the answer of that question... & even after getting some replies, I started to think about them more..
I remember many did think that people lack many morals now, many did thought that both of them are the answer.. but here's the answer I liked most... it was said by my sis..
she said: "Both, BUT..... we really did dispense a LOT"

Although that happened long ago, but I still remember her words.. & as time passes, I really observe that I am dispensing more of my morals.. I'm dispensing things I used to hold on & think they were right.. I'm dispensing beliefs & actions I thought before they were improper to do... yeah, Its true... u too dispensed a lot of ur morals... just a small flash back will remind you with things you used to think they are not 100% right & now you do them normally...
If u didn't find any, then u either are on the right track & you are keeping your believes, or you dispensed them loooong ago...

"قصيدة أنيس أحمد بوخمسين "جهاد النفس

This is one of my favorite poems, I've been searching for it quite long & finally found it, so I wanted to keep it here..

بملء إرادتي وبملء بأسي :: عصيتُ بعالم الشهَوات نفسي

وعصياني لها رضوانُ ربي :: وعزّة حاضري وغدي وأمسي

إذا أسلمتُ للنفس انقيادي :: جرعتُ الذُّل كأساً بعد كأسِ

وعين الذل أن أحيا رقيقاً :: بطاعة أمرها أضحي وأُمسي

وإني قد أبيتُ لها انقياداً :: وصنت كرامتي ورفعتُ رأسي

أسيِّرها كما أهوى وليست :: كما تهوى تُسيّرني لبؤسي

أحاسبها قبيل حلول يومٍ :: أحاسب فيه ممدوداً برمسي

ومهما زيَّنت قُبح الخطايا :: وبثّت غيَّها في كل هجسِ

سأبقى ما حييتُ أقول كلا :: لما تُمليه من زللٍ ورجس

وأقضي العصر في حربٍ سجالٍ :: أريد خضوعها وتريدُ نكسي

أشُنُّ على رغائبها قتالاً :: وأترك جذعَها نهباً لفأسي

أُروّضها وألجمُها فيعلو :: صهيلُ جِماحِها في كل حسّي

وتبقى مارداً شرساً ولكن :: بقُمْقُمه الصغير رهين حبسِ

What Lies Beneath...

We meet many persons in our lives.. & each person we meet, we get a first impression about that person.. & through situations with that person & this person's behavior, our brain starts to build a full picture for his character.. & upon this picture, we base our judgment on that person.. Is he good? kind? gentle?? boring? ... & moooore..

But, the question is.. Is that enough to judge a person through situations u see that person in or through this person's behavior??
well, the answer in my opinion is "No"..

Through situations in my life, I learned not to judge someone except after knowing -wt I call- "What Lies Beneath"..
Every person in Life has his own problems, situations he's been through that affected his behavior, responsibilities... etc... Every person u meet has sth "Hidden" Lying beneath that body u see, It's sth lying there inside his soul, his heart & his thoughts... This sth influences him in how he acts, how he sees people & even how he forms his attitude towards life..
so whenever someone acts strangely or unkindly or any other behavior you think its non-acceptable, don't ever judge that person except after u know "What lies beneath".. or at least give the probability that there's sth that influenced that behavior..
Sometimes when we know those things, our judgment upon those persons is changed extremely... maybe from anger to understanding.. from hatred to love.. from tough attitude to pity...& more of those "extremes"..

I will just like to end with this sentence..

جعفر بن محمد قال: إذا بلغك عن أخيك الشيء تنكره فالتمس له عذرا واحدا إلى سبعين عذرا، فإن أصبته، وإلا، قل لعل له عذرا لا أعرفه.
