Atonement

We carelessly make mistakes, or rather commit sins, over and over again to the point that repentance seems to be impossible. Most of the time, knowing the seriousness of our sins makes us question whether or not our repentance is accepted by Allah. I guess that is the thing about being human. We think too much to the extent where we forgot that we are not God. So why bother asking whether our repentance is accepted or not in the first place? Why think too much about our sins? Let bygones be bygones. Make amends with our own self and let Allah settle the rest. If you know you are sinned, repent and do not repeat the mistakes again. It is simple, really! Wallahualam.

    It is not easy to repent. It is even harder to prevent oneself from sinning.

    when you have conflict with your internal self, everything becomes difficult.

    Isn't that a clear reason why you should repent? (read: you should repent because of such conflicts that you have with your internal self and because everything seems difficult).

    "Indeed, Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves." (2:222)

    Wallahualam.

      Difficult is good. It keeps you on your toes. You are more aware of His presence when you realize the conflict you have with your internal self. Most become forgetful of His presence when they don't realize they have conflicts. He knows we are weak and we are constantly forgetting what is important in life that is living. That is why he is forgiving.

      People don't make announcement of their repentance. IF they do that , they are admitting to making dosa. Taubat is very personal. Most keep it to themselves.

Over the past few months, my life has somewhat flipped from being a teacher to an academic administrator. I have now held the portfolio of university ranking and rating in my workplace. The job scope is not that bad at all. It is a new thing for me but I can swiftly cope with it. Juggling with multiple roles at the same time is quite taxing but in just a matter of time I managed. I have now met a lot of new people and learn to understand a lot about running a university. This has somewhat detached me from my first reporting department - the English Language Division. It is amazing to actually report to two different departments at the same time. Albeit the two demand my full commitment, I strongly believe I could perform in both. The English Language Division is always like a home. I must admit I have greatly grown in these past years and it is a sentimental feeling that I have with the English Language Department. However, for almost six month being away from home and looking at it fr...

Worry. I believe I may have picked up the habit of worrying from my mother. She worries a lot and when I'm worried, it's usually the deep and strong kind of worrying. Worry.  Jealousy. I remembered the earliest time when I started to feel jealous. It was during my childhood when I got jealous of my brother. I always felt my parents love him more than me. Nevertheless, I quickly got myself out of it. I knew my parents love us equally and differently. Jealousy. Worry and jealousy. When you are worried and you are jealous of someone, could it mean that you love that person?
