STORY -- DONKEY THAT DROPPED IN THE WELL
One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a
well. The animal cried piteously for hours as
the farmer tried to figure out what to do.
Finally, he decided theanimal was old, and the
well needed to be covered up anyway; it just
wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.
He invited all his neighbors to come over and
help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began
to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey
realized what was happening and cried
horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he
quieted down.
A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally
looked down the well. He was astonished at
what he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit
his back, the donkey was doing something
amazing. He would shake it off and take a
step up.
As the farmer's neighbors continued toshovel
dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it
off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone
was amazed as the donkey stepped up over
the edge of the well and happily trotted off!
MORAL: Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all
kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the
well is to shake it offand take a step up. Each
of our troubles is a steppingstone. We can get
out of the deepest wells just by notstopping,
never giving up! Shake it offand take a step
up.
InshALLAH we will find it easy to implement
these in our lives :) Aameen

Wrong attitude of most of the Muslims"
We should not divide ourselves into sects
rather we should be united and follow the
teachings of Quran and Sunnah
Remove hatred for other sects and be united
as muslims and human beings
Allah says
"Surely they who divided their religion into
parts and became sects, you (o prophet) have
no concern with them; their affair is only with
Allah, then He will inform them of what they
did." [Quran 6:159]
"And hold fast, all of you together, to the Rope
of Allah (i.e. this Quran), and be not divided
among yourselves,.." [Quran 3:103]

TO SOMEONE
I have no idea who you are and where you
could be by this time. How I wish I could meet
you right away so I do not have to waste my
time meeting the wrong person. I’ve been
praying to God that one day, we will meet and
everything will turn out fine.
Before that even happens, I want us both to
be a better Muslim. I promise that I’ll try my
best to be a better Muslimah who loves her
Creator with all of her heart and misses the
Messenger though she never met him. I
promise you that I will learn how to be a
good mother to our future kids for I know
that raising up the generations of good
Muslims is not an easy task. I promise you
that Quran will be my most-read book besides
my medical books. I promise you that I’ll try to
make sure that my praying time will be 5times
a day and definitely not less than that
(InshaAllah) because I’m dying to see my
future children obediently performing their
solat in any sorts of conditions without a
grumpy face. I promise you that being a
faithful and loyal wife has always been my
dream. And I really hope you’re willing to do
the same thing too because Quran has said it
all: “Women impure are for men impure, and
men impure for women impure and women
of purity are for men of purity, and men of
purity are for women of purity: these are not
affected by what people say: for them there is
forgiveness, and a provision
honourable.”24:26.
But for now, let me walk on my own path, the
path that I’ve chosen, while you on the other
hand, my dear, walk along yours. With Allah’s
will, one day, somewhere, both of these paths
will end up in a junction. And with Allah’s will
too, our dream of creating a perfect Muslim
family - harmonious and beautiful - will be
possible. Ameen

[Hasan Al-Basri ((may Allâh have mercy on
him)] said, "The heart becomes corrupt in six
ways:
► committing sins in the hope of repenting,
► seeking knowledge and not applying it,
► practice without ikhlas [i.e. sincerity],
► eating the sustenance of Allah without
appreciating Him,
► not being pleased with Allah's decree and
► burying the dead without learning from
them."

Story of three friends who came to the New
York City:
Not long ago, three friends came to the New
York city. They decided to stay in a hotel
during the visit. It so happened that their
room ended up being on the 60th floor. The
policy of the hotel was that every night after
12:00 a.m. the elevators are shut down for
security reasons. So on the next day, the three
friends rented a car and went out to explore
the city. They enjoyed movies, concerts, and
other things throughout the whole day. At
one point, they remembered that they have to
get back to the hotel before 12 a.m. When
they arrived, it was beyond 12 a.m. at night.
The elevators were shut down. There was no
other way to get back to their room but to
take the stairs all the way to the 60th floor. All
of a sudden, one friend got an idea. He said
"For the first 20 floors, I will tell jokes to keep
us going. Then another one of us could say
wisdom stories for the next 20 floors. Then,
we will cover the other 20 floors with sad
stories." So, one of the friends started with
the jokes. With laughs and joy, they reached
the 20th floor. Now, another friend started
saying stories that are full of wisdom. So, they
learned a lot while reaching the 40th floor.
Now, it was time for the sad stories. So, the
third friend started thus, "My first sad story is
that I left the key for the room in the car."
Now, what is the point of this story? This
story resembles our life cycle. For the first 20
years of our life, we spend time in joking and
enjoying whatever is out there. Then, after we
reach 20, we go into the work force, get
married, have kids and this is the time when
we use our wisdom. Then, if we reach 40, we
finally see the white hairs and begin to think
that my life is coming to an end.
It's better that we start our life in the very
beginning by remembering death rather than
preparing for it at the end our life when very
few of us have the energy to obey Allah
completely.
