Assalamualaikum :)
How I envy those who knows the truth,
How I envy those who feels safe when they believe their version of truth is the truth
How I envy those who have the courage to change their strong beliefs for something new
How I envy those who have the urge to find the truth
How I pity those who belittled by others just by enquiring for the truth
How I find it's hard to know which is the truth,
When we conviniently say others cannot be more wrong and vice-versa
What if we find it's too late when we realized we've been barking up the wrong tree?
I just..don't know :(

ReplyDeletedidn't expect anyone to post any comment actually :D'
ReplyDelete2 be honest, the post was based from my experience and observation.
i.e.
how can I be so sure that the Islam that we have right now is the truth?
How can we be so sure that the version of Islam that I have right now is the truth?
Should I just believe those who said that what I have right now is the truth?
Should I listen to those who bad talk about others beliefs to prove that they're wrong?
Why should people bad talk about others if they don't really know them?
Why should I be labelled as a rebel, as a person who asks unnecessary things, whose thoughts be easily dismissed, just because people don't really understand me?
Will I be strong enough to change my belief if someday I learnt that what I have right now isn't the truth?
Will I have the urge to find out myself whether belief today is the truth?
What happen if I found out that what I have right now isn't the truth, but it's too late?
We claim we're something, without really knowing for sure what it is.
We claim we're Muslims -Ahl Sunnah-(Being a Muslim alone isn't enuff, i guess) without really know that sometimes what we do (in the name of Islam), isn't in Islam at all, even the opposite of the teachings of Islam. Even the opposite of the teachings of the so-called ahl-sunnah.
Faith is earned. Not blindly followed.
My 2 cents :D :D

ReplyDelete"How can I (not we :p) be so sure that the version of Islam that I have right now is the truth?"
Salam brother..
ReplyDeleteYou know what? There's nothing wrong for you to have these kinda thoughts.. :)
To question, is Islam you are in is true or not.. Is this the most righteous way to live?
I never thought this is a wrong thing to do. In fact, it is awesome! I had the same thoughts as u were..
What I actually want to say is.. Sometimes, I think, it is not everyone in this world that given a chance by Him to have a "snap" in the head. To think, who is my God? Who is HE? Am I living in the "right" that He wants me to? Who I should really worship to?
You should be thankful to Him, brother :)
Personally, I feel, when we started to have these thoughts, it means that we REALLY want to be the best for Him. Like, we don't want to live for nothing, right?
I am always always always amazed n envy with people who has not been born as Muslims, but, they converted into Islam after his or her own research and based on his or her wants. Not by force.
They TRIED HARD to learn who is God. But how about us? Many of us whose born Muslims, never had such thoughts or even courage to think about it.
So my last say to you, keep on looking! Strengthen your faith. Do whatever you want to do, but truly believe to do it, for His redha'. :)
