Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
Have you ever watched someone chase after the dunya, only to have it slip from their grasp every time?
Have you ever known someone who piles their plate high with food, yet their body is never satisfied?
Have you ever seen someone who has it all, yet can not appreciate any of it?
Have you ever met someone whose eyes are red with anxiety and whose heart never rests from worry?
Have you ever met someone whose feet are dangling in their grave, yet they deny the inevitability of death?
Have you seen the one whose face has turned black from the absence of Allah in his mind, his heart, his life.....
I have.
I just spent the past week with them.
I'm related to them.
