Haven't we lost it?
These lines have been playing in my
head...
They were about to torture my brain,
hand and pen, till I got forced to
write...
To some, a deliberate attempt...
We have subconsciously created a
'rival' for the Quran....
Despite clear warnings, havent we
failed?....
The rivalry had come through
preference and a matter of choice...
And the space they battle to occupy in
our heads....
Music and Quran now fight on our
Mp3 players, DVD, Mobile phones, cars,
radio, even on the streets....
A war of superiority, but clearly, music
is winning...
And it was said, a very long time ago,
that the holy book will be wept
away....
It sounded like fiction, a farce...
But behold, this is happening, and we
are all witnesses to our failure...
I am not spared in this sin...
But my conscience wouldnt allow me
breathe...
Haram or not, Music has eaten us up,
we've given a part of us to it, not the
quran....
As absurd as it would seem...
To imagine an Imam sing and dance to
the latest hits....
Right in front of us, while giving
sermon during a prayer...
Much have been said, my pen is just a
wanderer....
But truth be told, when death comes
and we are to account....
Quran will be there to shield us,
protect us...
And music, well, I have seen no hadith
that even the so called 'islamic songs'
would be of any help....
It is not 'some peoples' duty to read
the quran, understand it and bring it
to your brains to swallow...
It is every muslim's duty to learn it, a
command from Allah (swt)
..... And fear that day, when we'll all
return to Him....
Agreeing with these lines is also a
matter of choice...
My thoughts would allow me rest now, I've
done my part....
