"Necrology Undesired"

Reading the news of "Connecticut Massacre" made me think of many issues, the tolerance between humans is on sharp decline. The flaws in system over controlled substances and arms are too many to be pointed and the general state of affair in international harmony is crossing the limits of every etiquette in the book of idiosyncrasy..



I am deeply saddened by this heinous crime. Let it be Muslim, Christian or Jewish kids............it was uncalled for and a blatant cry over the falling standards of humanity. The loved ones left behind have to live with this reality that this big part of their life is gone for them, for good by a shear stroke of misfortune. Many kids were sent on a journey not chosen, forever by an unfortunate event.

All communities are showing a lot of grief and sentiments. And comparisons of such happenings are going around, everyone in their opinion seems to be missing out on the point.......No one has the right to take a fellow human's life............The closures happen when you condemn , refrain to inflict any such assault on others and then follow up with steps to eliminate such future happenings.

Islam is a religion of peace and harmony with clear orders about such murderous situations as in Al-Qur’an 5:32, "If anyone slew an innocent person it would be as if he slew the whole mankind and if anyone saved a life it would be as if he saved the life of the whole mankind".

The importance of every human life is beyond anything in Islam and unjust killing is equated , with killing all of humanity. The coldness shown by few at the horrific killings of a certain nation or group ,just reflects the moronic nature of their being and nothing else. There is no good if kids are being killed in USA or by a drone attack in Pakistan. There isn't a civil, feeling normal heart that won't protest at an atrocity of any nature.........unless it has been dead cold and good for plumbing purposes only.

Quran condemns wrong doings and prohibits homicide or genocide in clear terms. Also the person/nation, responsible can be punished by running a proper and competent legal system where deeds will be put on trial to decide the fate of an individual or masses who took the right to life and peace of other human beings.

Islam enjoins upon all Muslims to work side by side to maintain the balance in which God created everything. The core message of Quran is 'Tolerance' and 'Peace'.


It's very easy to pin point others for anything that goes under our radar setting of acceptable but we all should think twice before doing so. The voice of truth has power. The arm of justice has strength . The will to take care of humanity as we would love to be taken care of has harmony and peace inbuilt in it.

We all believe in humanity and benefit of it not clamorous murdering of innocence. No human can be happier, giving and pure without putting their interest in the betterment of the world and without someone being nurtured and comforted by the God given attributes of kindness and graciousness.

There was and will always be conformity to the recognized standard of propriety, goodness, modesty and decency.

Be the best one can be and deliver the best regardless of race and religion.

"Doing good for a good done to you is simply repayment, whereas doing good for an evil done to you is a tremendous virtue."
Umar bin Al Khattab (RA)

"Treachery"


Instincts deceive

Impressions fail

Perceptions betray

When

Double faced abundant

Virtues  overrated

Efforts falter

The mortals hurt

With assumed retribution

Animals are brute but at least free of trickery

 The fraudulent persona

Happily deceitful

Scarcity of morals and ethics

Sensibly ,carefully, enigmatically

Pathologically lying

For a favor or two

Beasts at large

Concealing realities

Masked faces

Made up characters

Gliding by smoothly

Considering the silent........Stupid'

Forgetting the Latitude' given

The Blind Eye' is for a reason

How could you breath content?

Would there be an "Impulse"

That will never BETRAY ?

'Reminder to Self'


The message is the same

The news is old

Take the Quran or the Bible engrave

Life has to end

Transition be over soon

No bias……no prejudice

Neither a preference

Let it be

A friend or a foe

The rich or the poor

The challenger or the defender

The evil or the blessed

Even the one using the Holy Grail

Chasing the material world is of no avail

Eternal is death

Whenever, however and whomever it comes

My remorse just caught me

The transgression in built destroyed me

I sin, I sin and I sin

The violations of adage

Challenging of maxims

The inner darkness

The murky thoughts, a distract

Ashamed at the deviation from the said path

Unorthodoxy was the charm

The prettiness and ecstasy

Of this rapture world

Took me away

Burnt me down

Obliterated the core

The goodness and all

I sinned ……forgetting the temporal stay

Mundane wishes

Profane deeds……

Knowing well……. are of no avail

Still embracing world

Lost in the fleeting time

Taking precarious stances

Devoid of vitality

Hollow as a shell

The futile SELF’…… day will come

When being asked …….till then

Annihilate EGO’........

PROSTRATE………SUBMIT!

Every soul shall have a taste of death: And only on the Day of Judgment shall you be paid your full recompense. Only he who is saved far from the Fire and admitted to the Garden will have attained the object (of Life): For the life of this world is but goods and chattels of deception(3:185) .

"Abu"


Resting in the heavens above..............

Can you feel….

My heartache

The sour loss of your departure

As if hell breaks loose

A big part of me went with you

The grief and anguish I carry…

Will I ever recuperate?

My seamless tears as clouds bursting out of skies

The absence of your strength and guidance in my life.

The agony of failing feelings

When smiles are not good enough to conceal the realities

Of my inwardly distraught.

My incensed anger breaks even with my silent punishing of self

No recluse in prayer

 My meditations failing

Emptiness in faith and so called happiness

I can’t comprehend this unreal saddening of soul

This sorrowful unending time

Years are not healers but stabbing time and again

Dad’

Today….again my spirit is just lost…..

What worth has my tears?

When I don’t have a hope

To have comfort of your presence

And the warmth of your arms around me.

No matter how brave I get to be

You left a gap too big to fill,

The world seems changed or

It’s just the gloom around…..

Just wishing

God keeps you close

Forever in my heart

Till death will make us meet again.

……..Love you ….................................................x.

"Irony"

Driving into the foggy nothingness,
Of being,
Just accentuates the feelings,
Placelessness,
Timelessness,
Worthlessness.......
Isn't the irony of life lies
In the absolute pettiness of desires ?

"Bow"


Ingest the Ego........Devour the Pride,

Abd Allah can’t be Egocentric.

This ostentation of grandeur,

This life of so called splendor,

The desirous moments of reaching to the skies,

Are all, but a disease of heart..........GLUTTONY!!!

Save the soul,

No deadly sins....,

Altruism stands firm........time n again.

Slay the ‘Self’,

Kill the ‘Egoist’,

Vanity is malady,

Save the gifted ‘Soul’,

Healing is with the healer,

Reverence is the savior,

Yield to the ‘Divine’,

‘Bow’...........Be ‘Blessed’.

'Eschew Obfuscation'

With the dying heart cadence


A dip in oblivion


Nothing being let out


That rumor was just a smoky cloud

May the oblivious stay in its oblivion


Nothing matters to the one who matters


The little Boy' is the scared "inhibitions"


Cloaked in wonders and enchantment of life.


Don't judge the minor by the years


The blessed are way ahead of time


You, yours, Me and mine are irrelevant. 

The plan was Godly


But the action was mortal.


Submission is the aim


Yet eternity,in-between to claim.


The inquisitive mind will question


The innocence is hidden in gestures....


...way deeper, than an ordinary perception.


Keep on dreaming lest it hurts


Struggle is needed .....temptation is around


Focus the ambition.....serve the purpose


Toil is unending....persistence wins.


No shallow selling of soul


No complicity with malign


Traduced'


Negative connotations.....sadly


The cards are dealt


Diamonds on stake


A prayer full of piety


The last eschew


Pawn my remaining breaths


Just make me humble


..................................Humble as my Muse'.
