The world of Islam today suffers from grave weaknesses! So weak is that world that Muslims are being driven our of their homes and from their homeland. Muslims are becoming refugees all over the world. Our Muslim sisters are being raped with contemptuous disdain. Masaajid are being razed to the ground. Unarmed Muslims taking refuge in a Masjid are brutally murdered. They are being tortured in concentration camps and linger in refugee and squatter camps.
Innocent Muslim blood continues to be shed on a daily basis and not a single eyelid is raised to bring this madness to an end. It would appear that we have not yet reached the stage of actual revival - not by a long stretch. As Muslims, there has not been much change in the practical aspect of our lives: no change, that is, in the direction of true unadulterated Islam. A strategy of mass education is urgently required.
The objective situation must be described with candor. "The Salihin shall inherit the earth" [Surah Al Anbiya verse 105] says the Most Holy Qur'an, men who maintain poise in life and protect it from every form of exploitation - Verse 155 Surah Al An'am:
And this is a Book which We have revealed As a blessing: so follow it and be righteous, that you may receive mercy."
All over the world today millions of Muslims live in abject poverty, in destitution, under subjugation and oppression. We are victims of Islamophobia and xenophobia and a paralyzed world of Islam seems totally helpless to do anything about the plight of our nation. It is not difficult to recognise that Islam has been under siege - not only today and not only since yesterday, but for several centuries now.
The decay of Islamic civilization, the progressive weakening of faith in Islam, the ineffectiveness of the Islamic teachings in our daily lives - all this is almost entirely due to the fact that for centuries we who profess to be true Muslims have been out of touch with the true premises of Islamic Law. The helpless, the weak and despised world of Islam can do absolutely nothing to respond to the sufferings of innocent Muslims in Iraq, Palestine, Afghanistan, Kashmir, Chechnya, the Caucasus regions, Bosnia, Kosova and the Philippines.
My Faiths Goal
May Allah Ta’ala grant us His Love and the Love of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) , such that it becomes easy to give up all sins and submit to His Obedience. May He protect us all from the mischief of nafs and Shaytaan. May He fill our hearts with Love, Adab, Akhlaq and Sabr for this beautiful Deen and inspire us in being a practical and good Muslims and be true role-models to our community.
"I want to die with my forehead on the ground,the sunnah in my heart,Allah on my mind, the Quran on my tongue & tears in my eyes."
Remember
Through the Zikr of Allah Ta’ala one may achieve recognition and Maarifat of Allah Ta’ala.

Light of Dawn
I wake with the light of the dawn whispering with joy in my heart and with praise on my lips. In stillness and twilight i stand before you bowing, prostating i call Allahu (swt).
My eyes see your beauty in the dawn's golden hues. My ears hear the thunder as it gloriies you. The rhythm of my heart beats the sound of your name. My breaths rise and fall with the tide of your praise. My soul knew and loved you before i was born and without your mercy is lost and fortorn.
Wherever i may wonder down the pathways of life, my cry to you Allah (swt), is "guide me to ligfht" through all fear and helpness, to you do i turn for your breath of healing and peacedo i yearn. For all that i have , my Allah (swt) all that i am is from you, is for you and to you will return. Inshallah
