Will there be a tomorrow?

I ate out this morning after mabit. It's been a while since there was any so third time for me. It's always a nice experience, different everytime and the theme this time is about taubat. Sleeping at the Akasia surau last night was alright at first but nearing the morning at around 3am I was so cold tears were flowing! T_T haha... (tu la, lain kali jangan malas nak bawak selimut from Cemara tu :P)

Have you gone for mabit before? Usually it starts at Maghrib. Praying together, listening to tazkirahs, doing some other activities to get us closer to Allah, sleeping together that night and waking up early for prayers (qiamullail). If you really focus, you'll feel the difference the next day. A day where you do qiamullail is never an ordinary day. Something special is bound to happen. I was rather sleepy last night so I regret to say my focus was a bit off this morning but it's okay, work done for Allah is never a waste.

Do you know I like leaves? :) Well I really do and a naqibah said yesterday that everytime the leaves move with the wind it shows that Allah is with us. She asked "Have you ever walked and thought that you're walking with Allah and many malaikat as well?" Isn't that wonderful? I wish I've thought of that :)

Back to the issues discussed something stressed on last night was about our senses and how it were to be if they were suddenly taken away from us. Just look at two senses we often take for granted.

~Our Sight & Our Hearing~

Ever wondered how it'd be if you wake up one morning and you can't hear anything? Is your alarm clock broken? Why was there no alarm? You walk to the bathroom, turn on the tap but the water is flowing without a sound. "What's happening?" you'd say and just a tiny thing taken away from you which is your hearing makes you all troubled and scared.

What if you wake up and it's pitch black? Maybe it's night time still and it's dark? You strain your eyes a bit more but still nothing in sight. You can't even see your hands. You open your eyes as wide as they can go. Pop it out if you must but still nothing and the thought hits you. I CAN'T SEE. Now you're even more scared.

We don't realise that Allah can take whatever he gives us anytime coz the truth is we don't have anything. Everything in this world is His including this body you're in. It's not yours. Just two senses up there. Can you be without? Would you want to be without? I don't think so.

Let's look at another situation. What if, you don't wake up at all? +_+

Tell me what is it you hope to achieve now. Good grades? Successful careers? Money? You have forgotten one thing. One important gift from Allah which is to be a able to...BREATHE. It must be at least 30 seconds since you read this post or even more. If you were unable to breathe for that long, you would've given up everything you have, everything you've ever wanted just to breathe once more. Did you realise that? Are we thankful for every breath we take? Think about it.

All of us has sinned to a certain degree somehow and so dear brothers and sisters we must repent. Not tomorrow, not next week, not next year but NOW. Repent now. Who knows, tomorrow might never come. Who knows today might be your last. Who knows?

Right?
