I Have A Blog, How Odd.

We all know about the unjust & inhuman atrocities which our fellow muslims nowdays are being forced to face...be it in Palestine, Kashmir, Iraq, Chechnya, Afghanistan & recently Lebanon...endless.

How many times do we thank Allah for making us a muslim & granting us so much luxuries, comfort & happiness especially we Muslim youths in Singapore???

How many times do we remember our fellow muslims in our doas???

After seeing my fellow muslims being oppressed & all on the news...i feel so sad, furious, helpless...can't i do anything to ease their suffering?

We are the youths of this present age...its up to us...we CAN do something...but how can we help???

The first step is becoming knowledgeable, strengthen our iman, put it into practice & actually caring & being concerned about what is happening. We are pretty limited in our ability to affect direct change.

As youths, we are not in the position to change policies around the world but I don't know, man. I feel so freaking drained when I think of all of the injustices in this world.

I mean we could donate money & we should. We could protest & we should. We could do so much & we should.

But it seems as if the system is becoming so big to change, the injustices too many. This isn't an excuse to not work for change, but for myself personally I think having control over my personal being & trying to better my iman is the most important thing i can do.

Allah only helps a people when they help themselves, and these world events are a test to the believers, insya Allah pushing us back to practicing Islam properly.

And if i could be honest....i think The Arab League is fcuking useless...disgustingly corrupt, going after wealth, status & dunia.

We shouldn't just be Muslim ''by name''...i don't wanna go b4 my Lord empty handed.
