This spoken word literally shook me down and made me think about our condition right now and what’s going to happen in the future? how fast the future is progressing causing us to depart from our purposes and most importantly ourselves. People rely on your origin, background, gender, and religion instead of your heart and your life’s mission. I’m telling you we are losing the livelihood in our hearts and trading it to materialism, racism, and fascism. Instead of uniting like one body as our beloved master Muhammed peace and blessings be upon him told us, our ummah and also the whole of humanity is drifting apart scattered around the world. Our only hope lies in our souls but it takes a big step to change the negative mindset and perception we have of others and to extinguish the flame inside and clean our hearts and minds.

I’m not speaking up like I’m perfect because I know I have flaws no matter what. And let us not talk about the flaws we have physically but the flaws we have INSIDE. Of course, there are still small shiny lights in the mid of darkness that provides me hope to our humanity and there are a lot of them but while they pour their rain of love to spread love and mercy following the sunnah of the messenger peace and blessings be upon him and keeping their hearts pure for the sake of the Gracious and Merciful ALLAH, there are hearts that are easily corrupted and blackened by how merciless a lot of people have become, how we turned out worse than what the prophet has taught us to preserve humanity.

Every day we see destruction occurring and what breaks my heart is people staying silent. I just hope from ALLAH that they do the least by spreading and sharing awareness and talking back to those corrupted politicians that:

OUR VOICE WILL BE HEARD AND YOUR POSITION DOESN’T GIVE YOU THE AUTHORITY IN ANY WAY TO SILENCE MY RIGHTS, MY BASIC RIGHTS!

Now, freedom of speech is a whole wide topic to talk about but maybe in my next post, but I live in a place where who knows what’s going to happen to me if I become more open about these serious issues. I just try my best because I cannot stand oppression in my eyes and have to act so I write this for you, my dear reader, in order to awaken your mind that this new generation is a generation where if you do not speak up for yourself or someone speaks up for you, most people are like predators and are going to hunt you sadly. Although there is still good out there, we are losing the essence of our goodness and our empathy as human beings.

ALLAH and his messenger have always instructed us and reminded us that there is no difference between us if we are black, white or male, female or we come from a certain group, NOTHING, no difference except in piety and our submission to ALLAH. And there is always wisdom why he created us different but because of our own doing, we have turned it into something horribly evil. As ALLAH says in the Holy Quran:

ALLAH is aware of all the evil we are doing and for those asking why wouldn’t God stop all this then, that’s another long topic to talk about in another post.

I see my brothers and sisters every day aching from the oppression raised against them and by the way I’m not just talking about my Muslim brothers and sisters but those in humanity too because I believe that there are those out there who are not Muslims but with such pure hearts and intentions that need help and we need to be there for them and guide them because who knows ALLAH guides whom he wants.

Islamophobic attacks are increasing day by day, The western and foreign world wants to dismantle us and remove us. They are attacking our men, women and children and snatching their rights and freedom because they dress a certain way or look a certain way or come from a certain place without getting to know the real truth. How can they stand the tears of innocents nearly crying blood of how much torture they have gone through and how much struggle and stress and depression their bodies are trying to handle, I can never imagine that because by ALLAH’s blessing I have everything at the moment so while I’m being tested with ease I need to do my best because the people you see are not animals but your fellow HUMAN BEINGS!

ALL THIS BECAUSE IM NOT THE SAME. IS BEING DIFFERENT A THREAT? I’ll leave it to you to judge

And I remind you of what I mentioned in my other post:

Quran (4:135)
