| Aminah: | Monesa, sama ka? Mag hajj kami ngayong taon. Hindi ka pa nakapag-hajj, di ba? Obligatory na ito sa mga may kakayahan financially. |
| Monesa: | Sayang, wala pa kase ako na save para jan. Am short of cash pa, you know. And besides, ubos na leave ko. |
| Aminah: | Hmmmm. |
| | (Biglang nag ring ang cellphone ni Monesa) |
| Monesa: | Hello?......hey! Kelan ka pa dumating??...Talaga? …May Promo ang PAL, talaga??.....ok, sold ako jan, kelan alis nating going for Singapore?...Next week??....Sure, hindi pa man din nag expire ang passport ko….ok, call kita ulit, insha’Allah. Bye! |
| Aminah: | Akala ko, you are short of cash at ubos na leave mo sa office?? |
| Monesa: | Naku, huwag mo naman gawing issue yan. Am availing promo fare, and besides few days lang naman yon. Di tulad ng hajj, it will take you weeks at walang promo duon. |
| Aminah: | Ilang promo naba ang naibigay ng Allah sa iyo? Hindi lang promo, free pa. |
| Monesa: | Huh?? |
| Aminah: | Kung hindi ka Nya binigyan ng taynga, makakarinig ka ba? Free yon! At kung wala kang dila, masasagot mo ba ang calls mo?? Hindi no! at free pa rin yon..yung calls mo, me charge, hindi free! |
| Monesa: | To be frank with you, Aminah, I am not spiritually prepared pa. In God’s time makakapunta rin ako sa place na yan and besides, bata pa ako para maging relihiyosa. I still have my whims you know. |
| Aminah: | To be frank with you, too, Monesa – Hindi mo hawak ang buhay mo. Baka bukas makalawa patay ka na and there is no such thing as preparedness in anything. Kung gugustuhin mo ang isang bagay, gawin mo at duon ka tutulongan ng Allah. Don’t wait for the food to fall unto your plate! Kahit tumanda kana, yang whims na yan ay hindi mawawala kung hindi mo ito iiwan! |
| Monesa: | Hmp, maka alis na nga. Sawa na ako sa sermon! |
Ilan ba sa atin ang may ganitong paniniwala? Ating pong isa alang-alang, ang buhay ng tao ay hindi puro pasarap at ang kamatayan ay walang nakaka alam kung kelan ito ay kakatok sa ating mga pintuan.
Alamin po natin kung ano ba talaga ang mahalaga sa ating buhay at ating labanan kung anuman ang idinidikta ng ating kagustuhan.
Ang Allah ay tutulong lamang sa mga taong gustong tulungan, at gagabay sa mga taong gustong gabayan.
May kasabihan - kung gusto, maraming paraan. Kung ayaw, maraming dahilan.
ReplyDeleteAssalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu...Napakasimple pero napakalalim na mensahe masha'Allah lalo na sa mga taong nagpapahalaga sa kanilang buhay.
ReplyDeleteI would like to share these beautiful sayings:
Hassan Al-Basree said;
"O Son of Adam!Walk on the earth with your feet as long as you wish,for it shall be your grave.You have not ceased to subtract from?your life span since you came from your mother's womb.Al-Hilyah of Abu Nu'aym,2/155
Mutarrif Ibn Abdullah said:
"Verily,this death has certainly corrupted upon the people of pleasure their pleasure,so seek pleasure in which there is no death.Lataa'f Al-Ma'arif,pg.70
Jazakillahu khairan Ukhtie...Keep it up....
Mashallah!!!! I love all his sayings. As a matter of fact, I have collected his sayings and with your permission sis, I wish to collect this sayi8ngs as well...
ReplyDeleteHassan Al-Basree also quoted this lines:
"Beware of this dunya that is falling down and is misleading and deceiving, being decorated by its deceit and having eluded (others) by its delusion, and having killed its people with its hopes. It looks forward with anticipation towards the one who proposes to it for marriage. Hence it becomes like the unveiled bride -all the eyes are looking towards it, and the souls are in love with it, and the hearts are captivated by it"
thus they made this life their final abode and forget about the most certain thing in their lives - DEATH.
wa alaykum as sallam sisko ♡
