SHARING EXPERIENCE

SHARING EXPERIENCE
-Muaz  Ahamed Fathahullah-

Since I was small as a child I used to share each and every incident of mine with my family and friends. Sometimes too with unknown ones, who seem to be moving, close when I am alone and when I am travelling. Because I believe that the character 'Muaz' means me, playing a different role with his life in the society as everyone does. And also faces many different types of incidents as sometimes I may the only person who faced such an incident among whomever with me. So I just go through like this, if I share that, it will be really a favor, a Sadaka (charity) as making comfortable to face such an incident for those who meet after me.

Also I must say that this is not specified to me alone. Because everyone have their different life with different experience. So I feel there’s no any wrong on sharing something which will be really helpful and useful what they faced.

But is it correct?
In my life many characters have made me to think like this. Because they say that it’s just like boasting. They may think like that because, almost I come over every incident successfully. Alhamdulillah. Any way I have an answer for them, who think so.

'I am a Muslim. So Almighty Allah should help me. He helps, so it’s no more hard to me'.

But sometimes those negative approaches demotivate me, mostly when my so close ones think as I mentioned above. That time I just feel to give up everything and be quite. Earlier I was a social blogger and as I didn't get much time for update latest issues, I turned my way as a personal blogger. Also to help others without wasting my talent on writing. So again I don't feel anything wrong there. And also one day, I have to answer about what I have given with as how I used it?

From nearby I have reduced my habit of sharing experience unless with whomever directly likes to hear me and whomever likes to gain something. Alhamdulillah I have got such students and well wishers with me.

Proudly I can say that I have found many brothers and sisters in Islam, through my attempt, who motivates me in my work. So I won't give up this until my hands fail to write and until my brain fail to coordinate, Insha Allah. Because I still remember a reply from one of my very close sister Shaazlah, for my message on a great disappointment after some say I am boasting through my writings. She said that,
'If your intension is clear and if you’re doing it for the sake of Allah, then don't leave the Shaithan (devil) to whisper to you. Because he will do anything to stop us and who do the righteous deed'.
Also she said that,

If they are saying so (i.e. you are boasting), it’s their error on judgment. Imagine if one person’s life changed by you'.

Her words remind me the words of Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) to Ali (R.A) as,
'If a person gained Hidayath through you, it's all enough to gain the Jannah (the heaven).

Once, one of my class mate Afdhal, said that he had gained many thing from my blog. Alhamdulillah.
Really the demotivators may not know the true happiness gained by such Dawwah. How many times I get a chance to say Alhamdulillah. They may don't realize that.


Moreover, as to me, my reality is, 'I need to make everyone’s view on an incident, not just as it happened or finished, but why it happened and how it happened.
At last, I like to say thanks to everyone who helped me and who waits for my writings.

SOMETHING NEW


SOMETHING NEW
-Muaz  Ahamed Fathahullah-
“Two days of a Muslim can’t be same”. This Hadees of Prophet Muhammed is going to be the theme of this blog. Insha Allah. Also this is the Hadees which inspired me a lot.
Almost many of us in this modern world are living just as they were born and as they think that they were created to live. We spent our time as it passes us so fast. Our time line runs with the common activities as studying, working, and sleeping and so. They may think that they are doing something. Yep, logically they are; but spiritually they aren’t.
In addition to that we allocate time for the prayer as we are Muslims. And few of us allocate the time for read and understand the holy Quran, the guide. But only very few of us go more special to this as they realized that Islam is the universal religion and have to do a lot. May Allah bless them.
In my personal life I have met many varieties of people from nominal Muslims to qualified Muslims through Shariah view. To be frank I Am always jealous on top grade personalities who manage their life with many special works as I mentioned as very few. That jealousy is not for the bad. But from small I wish to be a multiple personality who could be agreed by the society in the name of religion. So I use to steal each and every attitude of a special personality whoever inspired me. For words my dad used to say that “those people work more than for 24 hours a day”.

In practice I found that it was not easy. So I decided to make it in order as “A new thing daily”. This is because the life should feel an improvement and it should face a change, If not its waste.
As I remember. A scholar said that “A day passes is a life time lost, if there’s no any improvements”.
A change; it can’t be descending too. Also it is so shame being without improvement and with negative approach. Really how can a person be like that? Copied days?
According to me a change is neither an accident nor luck. It’s a result of expectation on trying to be a multiple personality or just a special personality. Also can say as the result of an expected quality.
Throughout the last couple of months, since I have started my plan, realized that practicing or trying on a certain thing could make it real although it’s hard to top. For example, earlier I was not punctual on my duties. I always wait for the final minute. But now I am punctual enough to make my routine clear. Alhamdulillah.
I found this is possible because time management was a character I have scheduled to make in me through my plan. Like this many more too.
Really this type of practice makes strong in the path of Dawah, because on the same as we gain a quality, we also got to know how to gain and how to make it possible.
By the way it’s really interesting when making everything included in your life with extra ordinary and ordinary works other than your daily duties.
Just the thing is to remind the theme of the day in every action, what you have planned to practice upon the certain day. If it isn’t possible in a day no need to give up, just relax and go ahead with the same theme. This is what I am doing and many others doing.
Once a motive speaker told me like this. “Improving his living; that is life, if not its surviving” and asked me “hope you know what is the different?”  I believe that you too know that.
 “Verily Allah will not change the condition as long they do not change their state by themselves”
