Me: hey dude
Devoted Muslim friend: don’t say ‘hey’; say, 'ASSALAM ALAIK KUM.'
Me: oh okay.
Devoted Muslim friend: (shakes his head in disgust) you know you are really going down the wrong path you know that?
Me: am I?
Devoted Muslim friend: Yes! How punctual are you with your Namaz?
Me: oh well I’m hardly offering prayers.
Devoted Muslim friend: (almost faints) you are doomed! Hell awaits you!
Me: oh dear…
Devoted Muslim friend: you better get your act straight. Devote your life to the Almighty.
Me: hmmm. Hey I don’t see your chowkidaar?
Devoted Muslim friend: oh Anis…. Well his son died… remember the Rains a week ago? Well our servant quarter does not have a proper ceiling and he was like 6 months old so... naturally. Dad has made sure though he gets through the grief… given him a few extra bucks…. khair Namaz pe challein? (Shall we go to pray?)
Me: hmm I think I will pass...
Devoted Muslim friend: You are doomed my friend! A time would come when God won’t help you either… you are so doomed...
Me: I wonder..
Devoted muslims often sound like that.

what i donot get is how come we miss the HAQOOQ UL IBAD (rights of fellow beings) in Islam, as if it doesnt exist at all... im no cleric on our religion, but hey do we act obnoxious or what?

satans are ruling.. help me God...
Ah ... classic example of a devout god fearing male who thinks Allah would absolve him of every wrong deed if he prays five times a day and hikes his pajamas to an obscene level
ReplyDeleteExactly! Our religion is simple. We have made sure that it turns out to be a collage complication, confusion and what not. I just so wish for common sense to prevail
ReplyDeletePS: i still cannot get out of the inner euphoria that you spared yourself to comment on this space lol... I find your writings apt, fun and intriguing (I bet a lot of people would have already told you that ;))
I hope you keep floating by now and again!
