A Close Shave by tbaba1234: 9:19pm On Mar 28, 2013
Today, i had a close shave... i had my life flash before my eyes for a few seconds, like they say.

I went for a road trip, the driver tried to overtake another vehicle but miscalculated it. I was on the passenger seat. A collision seemed inevitable, somehow the driver made a last minute swerve.

I was happy that i murmured the shahada, i always wondered if i could do it when faced with real danger. Anyway i am fine.

Remember death, it could come at anytime.

May Allah have mercy on us. Ciao

Alhamdulilah nothing bad happened, may Allah (SWT) grant us long lives to do more good deeds, and take our souls when firdaus is sure ameen.

Alhamdulillah, you are safe. I have seen something like that before. It wasn't the bus I was travelling in but a car driven by someone I suspected to be tipsy. They were coming from a party and were intimidated by our bus driver. They then engaged in a road race with our bus driver from Ijebu Ode to Sagamu. They missed colliding with a trailer by whiskers on one of their overtakings.

He isn't good enough a Muslim for you? If you say that is not what you mean then your comment makes no sense

^May it be a purification if Allah wills. In Sha Allah it won't have effect on your exam. Hope you have taken drugs?


Op Alhamdulila, It's a reminder...
Re: A Close Shave by deols(f): 12:19pm On Mar 29, 2013
Yeah. Thanka.

@op, sorry for the derailment.
Re: A Close Shave by zayhal(f): 1:07pm On Mar 29, 2013

lol...half bread is better than none,right? its great to be a Muslim.but if you want to understand Zhul-Fiqar's Shia view,you need to understand the Quran.know the difference of what the Quran portrays of being "muslim" (submitter with the lips and some acts) and being a "mu'meen" (believer in the heart).and then consult the hadiths of the signs of a mu'meen described by the holy Prophet (s).I don't want to derail the thread,but I can help you out if you like.

and as for tbaba,may Allah (swt) protect us all and prolong our lives for the good He intended for us.

Have u heard of multiple personality disorder? Coz I can't just figure out how u are able to dualize ur behavior so effortlessly zhullagosfiqarshia!

Thaba may Allah protect u from misfortune and grant u long life amin. And yep we should all remember death, it comes unannounced, in addition taking stock of ones' life time to time would ensure we keep in mind death and make sure our deeds are always in line with what is good!

@ deols may Allah grant u sound health and success in your exams amin

@Tbaba
May Allah protect us, extend our life and bless us with the urge and ability to commit that long life to good deeds

@Deols
May Allah ease the headache and make it an expiation for sin. And may Allah help you excel in that exam

@All
If I remember, the best way of praying for our brothers and sisters is when they are not there. Let us remember them while in sujud. Their prayers and ours have better chances of being answered
Re: A Close Shave by tbaba1234: 12:54am On Mar 30, 2013
Deols, all the best in your exams, May Allah grant you success...
Re: A Close Shave by deols(f): 3:39pm On Mar 30, 2013

Two cars, my dad 's car n .my mum's car. We were in a convoy from the village for the easter break. Two drivers, my dad's driver n my mum's driver. I was in my dad's car, we were in front .. they came from the bushes and stood in front of us. They shot.

We took cover, we were close enouigh to speed past them.My mum's driver swerved and almost hit one of them. .. they jumped off the road and shot at the car. They missed.

We were the only cars that got away. The others stopped. It was like a movie. This took place at 10am.

My mum's driver was awesome... I was scared when we passed. .Just looking back to see if they would get past them. Crazy few seconds!! Incredible driving.

Alhamdulilah.. hopefully no one was hurt.
