Mizz Ish Posted August 12, 2002 PeAcE B UpOn AlL MusLiMz I'm Too Busy I'm Too Busy I'm Too Busy I was too Busy a lil bit 2 late.. WeLL this poem is not mine but it is from 1 of my muslim sister.. I though It B nice 2 share inshallah I hope U like.. Everyday as i wake up at dawn My mind start working the moment i yawn There were many things to do, o dear! That's why i hastily did my Subuh prayer I didn't have the time to sit longer to praise the Lord To me rushing out after prayer is nothing odd... Since school, i had been busy every minute Completing my tutorials and handing it in My ECAs took up most of my time always No time did i have to Allah to pray Too many things to do and zikir is rare For Allah, I really had no time to spare.. When i grew up and started my career Working all day to secure my future When I reached home, I prefered to have fun I chatted on the phone but i didn't read the Quran I spent too much time surfing the Internet Sad to say, my faith was falling flat... The only time i have left is weekends During which i prefer window shopping with friends I couldn't spare time to go to the mosque I'm too busy, that's the BIG EXCUSE... I did my five prayers but did so quickly After prayer, I didn't sit longer to reflect quietly I didn't have time to help the needy ones I was loaded with work as my precious time runs No time at all to visit a sick Muslim friend To orphans and elderly, I hardly lent a hand I'm too busy to do community service When there were gatherings, I helped the least My life was already full of stress So i didn't counsel a Muslim in distress I didn't spend much time with my family B'coz i thought, doing so is a waste of time... No time to share with non-Muslim about Islam Even though I know, inviting causes no harm No time to do Sunnah prayers at all All these contribute to my imaan's fall.. I'm busy here and busy there I've no time at all, that's all i care I went for religious lessons, just once in awhile Coz i'm too busy making a pile... I worked all day and i slept all night Too tired for Tahajjud and it seemed not right To me, earning a living was already tough so i only did basic deeds but that's not enough.. No time at all, to admire God's creation No time to praise All_h and seek His Compassion Although I know how short is my life For Islam, I really didn't strive.. Finally the day comes, when the Lord calls for me And I stood before Him with my Life's History I feel so guilty b'coz i should have prayed more Isn't that what a Muslim lives for? To thank Allah and do more good deeds And the Quran is for us all to read.. Now at Judgement Day, I'm starting to fret I've wasted my life but it's too late to regret My entry to Paradise depend on my good behaviour But i've not done enough nor did proper prayer My "good deed book" is given from my right An angel opened my "book" and read out my plight. Then the angel chided me.... "O You Muslim servant, you are the one, Who is given enough time, yet not much is done Do you know that your faith is loose? saying "no time" is only an excuse. Your "good deed book" should be filled up more with all the good work you stood up for.. Hence, I only recorded those little good deeds As I say this, I know your eyes will mist.. I was about to write some more, you see But i did not have, THE TIME to list"....... THE END.. Wa BiLLaHiToWFiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiQ PeAcE OuT Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
