Appointment

{ Posted on Wednesday, August 11, 2010 by Sadid }

People nowadays are full of appointments, meetings, mainly things to do. Even if they have nothing to do, they will still find or figure out something to do. Fascinating isn't it?

Well, last two weeks a brother told me a story when he went out to see a very busy brother to remind him on the purpose of this life. The busy brother listen for awhile, but then stopped the brother who was reminding him and asked, "have you made an appointment for this?". Kindly the brother replied, "no". "next time, make an appointment first", said the busy brother and left in a hurry. After two days or so, the brother found out that the busy brother have just passed away. انّا للہ و انّا الیه راجعون. He died in his car, after shopping for groceries, before even putting on his seatbelt. It seems like when death comes, there's no appointment for that.

The sahabah used to asked the Prophet (S.A.W) on the real date of the Judgement Day. The Prophet replied that isn't it better for us to get ready for it. (I'm not so sure the exact words and all).

My point is that since Alhamdulillah, we are still given the opportunity to live this earth, to do good things, and with the presence of the Holy month of Ramadhan, why not we make it an appointment for us and Allah. For us to be a better muslim.

InsyaAllah everybody ready for this?
