This I Believe


I believe in God, who is the most gracious and merciful of all. I believe in his prophets whom are the perfect role models for us. I believe in Islam which demands less and rewards the best. I believe in the holy book Quran, which is a perfect guide for us. I believe in the afterlife, when we finally had to face our God on the judgment day. I believe in his judgment, which is infallible. I believe in his all of his creations, which is pure and beautiful.
I believed in him not because I had too but that I choose too. I was never forced to but with all my senses I accepted him as my God. The one, who is not only fair with me but with everyone. I believe that he had sent us in this word in order to test us and if we hopefully passed than we are greatly awarded. I believe in Paradise where all the successful humans will be placed to and I believe in hell which is for those whom refused to follow him. I believed in the relationship between him and me which is the most beautiful amongst all.
I do not like crying in front of people, no matter how much it hurts I just don’t.  I feel like I am disrespecting myself by crying or begging in front of them. The only thing I do is pray to God and cry as much as I want only in front of him who actually can do something about my pain. That moment I feel the closest to him and my faith in him becomes even stronger. When I am done, I no longer feel that I have to worry about it since; he knows what is best for me. The best thing is that even if I don’t know how to explain my feelings in words, he exactly knows everything.
There is a strong feeling that he is always listening to me. Whenever I ask for something it comes true and even if it does not I believe that it must be not right for me. Having faith in his, makes it easy for me to take any decision since I know he will take care of it. But in return I believe it is my duty to follow his rules. I believe in him as he does not seek to crush my natural desires but guides me along right channels.

I believe in him and how indeed could I give my faith up and accept something else instead.

Dating in Islam


One of the common question amongst the non-Muslims are that how can a Muslim man or woman cannot date before marriage and just marry to that someone without even knowing them well? Basically, one of my Islamic teachers explained us the concept about this. It is all about happiness and fulfillment in our marriage once and for all. For example, if you date someone, unfortunately, broke up with them and then move on. But the fact is you will keep on comparing your current partner with the past one. It is human nature even though all humans are not alike but the method of contrast and comparison might lead to some issues. Also dating begins in teenage which are especially one of the most important parts of your life in order to succeed in future. Along with the studies, it is the time to spend time with your friends and family, instead of dating and dealing with drama and emotions. Since, you are going to be all focused on your marriage afterwards. I am not saying that dating is wrong, but don’t you want to wait for the special one. After all they say , “ The fruit of patience is always sweet”.
