Oh Allah – Is this a blessing or a curse? Print E-mail

473958_muslim_girls_in_al-quds.jpgOh Allah I was blind and you woke me up. I was heedless of good on this earth, I thought rituals were the way to Your heart, until you shattered my illusions and made me realise that your people were suffering and I was doing nothing.

Sometimes I wish I was still blind, for now I can see, I see a road full of pain. For my brothers do not want to wake up to help each other and my sisters look for comforts in life, they forget their sisters who have none.

Oh Allah they can relax, and feel pious in their forgetfulness of your Ummah, but why did you inflict this curse of perception, of sight upon me. For now You have made me see, and I cannot close my eyes, I cannot blot out what you have made me aware of.

Oh Allah give me ignorance again, give me blindness, so that I may go to my grave never having seen my people in so much suffering, that I may not feel their pain, nor grieve at their loss, I want to be like my practicing brothers and sisters who sit in circles feeling close to you, not caring of betrayal of the ones You love.

Why can my tongue feel no pleasure in argument for inaction like the Muslims who argue with me as I try to wake them up to Your cause, why did you rob my heart of reasons to do nothing, instead of filling my heart with reasons to do something.

Take this hole in my heart away, I don't want these tears, make me blind again so I cannot see my own peoples betrayal for there is no burden on this earth greater than the man who has been woken by you oh Allah to Your command to do justice, in a time where even Muslims by their silence are unjust.

The most obvious damage to islam is created by those that allow western leaders and politicians to create civil war amongst a people and latest examples include iraq, palestine, afghanistan and now pakistan.

So long as the people continue to be manipulated by white western politicans to kill each other then muslims will never be united and divided are easier to rule to prevent muslim nations from developing.

It is the same I feel, thank you for writing this. The Muslim Ummah must be united!

Yeah, after all it has absolutely to do with the parade of dictators, religious nutters, military rulers, local gestapo and associated fascist scum who the Muslim states have as rulers presently... of course.
