Ramadan 2010: Inshallah a new beginning

Ramadan 2009 was really a memorable one, Alhamdulliah I did my best efforts and almost reached all the targets I set for myself. That time I mainly concentrated on self purification and tazkiya, may Allah accept the tiniest efforts that I made during that and forgive my sins Ameen. I pray for the same for all Muslim Ummah.

As the number of brothers increased this year in Samsung inshallah I will more concentrate on a group activity with other brother and inshallah will also maintain a balance self purification and collective activities.

Self Targets

Is future predictable??

Thats a nice question to be answered. The simple answer is NO, but I think can be made. Next question is how can I make it? The answer lies in few para below.

I think we need to know what is actually future and what do you want. Until I m not clear about it I can not make it. Wow I know what i want to be, like yet another common boy in college I want to a billionaire in future, but on the same time I wantot leave something behind that greatly useful when i not in this world.

Amazing, good now I m ready to build a future. But I realized one thing as I m growing older the zeal to make more and more money is loosing. I want to make good living and leave a work that touch every Indian Engineering once in life time is becoming more of a future.

Now the work I want to do in future is almost clear. Need to make a plan to achieve it in a reasonably short time and make more realistic deadlines. Inspire 'n' Ignite is successful start, Inshallah, I will grow faster than ever and inspire over a million readers every month within a year time.

I m getting more serious for MBA and a book launch and a new venture in Animations. Soccer has becoming more of a sport for future and may want to see someone in our next generation take it as a passion.

What if I can not do it? Even if I can not it I will be happy. I tried something and gave my best efforts to what I wanted and lived for my future and dream. For me trying honestly is more important than the final results, because I believe results lay in Gods hands and he is the one who grant us the best, which we dont know. Whatever comes is the best :)

Marriage, a decision

Yet another girl is getting married. Wow congratulation!!!
But why am I thinking about it?! Common! Keep a cool head, everyday girls get married and start their lives and one day you will too.
But…! What but?!

But some marriages give a strange feeling, don’t know how to explain!!!

I am thinking about a girl's wedding, a girl whom I find to be quick, active, attractive and smart.

How does it matter to me? Really, it doesn’t matter. Sorry I’m lying at this moment. Truth to be told, it matters in some deepest corner of my heart. Wished she would have made a far better choice (Don’t jump! Read all).

The simple reason is I work on philosophy of equal matches. When we marry and we are given freedom to choose without any conditions, I feel that smart people should obviously make the smartest choices.

But on the same time I know few people who make huge sacrifices too. They wait for a long time and are reluctant to take their decisions. They think about family, parents and other things. Sometimes these people make a choice because of the heavy responsibilities lying on their shoulders. I believe they know what they are doing, but personally I think they deserve more.

Sometimes, I feel selfish. If I had been and thought this way, I would have made many people happy. But as I read religious texts I’m strengthened with a great feeling of leaving decisions to Allah. Why do we always forget that he makes decisions not us?!

We think too much about a lot of things and if we don’t get them or end up loosing them we go sad, but why don’t we focus more on the fact that Allah ,who loves us more than 99 mothers and knows all about us, wouldn’t make us sad. Every decision we leave on him Inshallah will be great and will give us felicity.
Wow! I know everything and I’m very strong. No actually,I am only a human being and I want to think.

May Allah forgive and give us the strength to do our best and leave everything to him. That gives real pleasure in life. A pleasure only a believer can feel.

I pray Allah SWT for everything good and not to burden us with what we can not sustain. Lets always ask “Rabbana hablana min azwajina wadzurriyatina qurrata a'yun waj'alna lil muttaqina imama” (QS. 25 : 74) …….amiin ya rabbal 'aalamiin
