signpost


I'd say life is like walking without being able to make a u-turn
but you get to look around and see where you are
and you get to look back and see how you got there.

there would be a lot of signposts along the way
you'll know which path is the right one
if you really want to see
blinded by some things you meet/carry along the way?
that's not impossible

in the journey of life
everyone has the same destination
but the maps, the routes might differ
just like how we want to make it easier for us and others to reach our destinations on Earth by creating GPS, making highways etc
in this case, we should do the same
through Mau'izah Hasanah..Tazkirah etc
so that all of us could reach Jannah together :)



in our prayer, in every rakaat, in al-Fatihah, we actually say:

"It is You we worship and You we ask for help.
Guide us to the straight path - The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray." (1:5-7)

and we ask for Allah's guidance again when we sit in between the two sujuds.
actually, we've been asking for 'signposts' from Allah to show us the right path so many times a day, everyday. not everyone knows Arabic, i know very little, but...perhaps if we know what we're asking for, at least, it'd be easier for us to receive when whatever that is we've asked is delivered.
