My work place

Dear All,

Here is a glimpse of my work place...

Are we ready for death?

Dear,

Take some moment and go to a serene location.

Just think, who are we? from where do we come? and where are we right now and where we are going? Do we think about these queries in this fast moving world? Just think about it and you, yourself will know the correct answer.

We're living in a hi-tech world where everything moves in lightning speed. All of us or most of us, including me, are running behind money and other worldly things. We're travelling in a train and we don't know our final station, yes, anytime the station master (God) can ask you to get down from this train.

We're in cloud-nine dreams that we wan't to earn money, buy a house - don't stop there buy another one, make our children to become a doctor, buy a car and this list goes on. Where this will end? When we get too old, when no body takes care of us, we think what does these things do for us? If you think wisely it had created more complex problem than ever to you and we made our head bald by trying to solve this but in vain. Why do we get immersed inside such a whirlpool? If our death is going to come in 5 minutes think, how do we feel? Just think. Are we prepared to face death, of course for believers those who think there will be a Judgement Day.

Worldly things are needed of-course to certain extent but I think everyone thinks that worldly things are the only necessity to lead a successful life. It may look so pleasant but it's not so in real. We're like a ship which sails in water(money or worldly things), what happens if the water in the sea comes inside this ship? Yes, that's the end of it. Like wise, don't allow money or other worldly things to come inside and immerse us. No one knows their end, let's be good without any hatred and live happily by doing good deeds.

Let us change and count our savings as how many good deeds we've done this month? so that we're able to assess ourself to a certain extent. I agree, it may be difficult for us to lead as a good person in such an environment, but, remember truly for every hardship there is relief.

Everything is in our hand - to do good or bad. This world is like a television which has all sorts of channel but the remote control to switch to a right channel is with us.

So let's fine tune us increase our savings by doing good deeds.

Dowry - a toxic act

Dowry - A lethal evil act

I was just listening to a talk show in TV regarding dowry and I want to join them and speak, but couldn't. Lot of people are arguing its' because of male and some blames female. Oh! come on, it's because of some evil-human being.

Just give a moment........ and think about this instance (if you're a male you'' understand this better).

We're living with our parents for say at-least 20 to 25 years. We have our own pleasures, friends, relatives etc., and we're well fitted to this environment. Imagine suddenly your parents say from hereafter you have to live with another family they'll point someone even if we like or don't (not for few months or years but for your whole life) and they'll add if they permits you can visit our home occasionally.

How do you feel? grrrrrrrrrrr, red hot isn't it. Just think. We have to leave all our pleasures which we enjouyed and to go and live in a family whom we don't know, that too in some situation to live in remote places. Oh God! What a sacrifice? really a great sacrifice.

Women do such a great sacrifice. Ironically, to do such a sacrifice the bridegroom's family demands for money and other worldly thing too. In which divine book it is said like this? Are they doing business?

Just think...

If somebody wants to grab us (male) like this do we leave it? What a joke, a female is doing such a great sacrifice and to do that hard act, she has to pay, ridiculous.

Let each one of us take a pledge, that we'll never commit such a toxic suicidal act and we'll pass this message to all especially our youths who if they willed can change everything. We have the right to say No! even to our parents for such an evil act.

Let's not attend any such marriage, and if we do so, keep watching, things will change very soon.

Unexpected meeting with A.R. Rahman

One evening, I was attending an event in Jeddah, this I reckon it's 3 years back. Suddenly I heard a voice, Hey! Sheikh let's have dinner with A.R. Rahman. I'm stunned and asked him come again what did u say? he replied we're going to have dinner with A.R. Rahman! Oh my goodness! I'm excited and thrilled. Then it really happened. I went to a home where A.R.R was sitting in a corner so silently(as we know of him). I pinched myself to make myself believe it's true or not. Slowly I went and sat near him and u know this is the first time I'm meeting him, Oh! he's so friendly and brotherly, no boasting at all like a VIP. He's so simple and I had cool one-to-one chat (could u believe it) he answered so humorously and at the same time very softly & freindly. We know him that he's a simple man, yes it's true I've experienced it. One of the fine human being I've met.
