Elixirs of Life

He found me lost and He saved me. Guided me. With tarbiyah.

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَجِيبُوا لِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ لِمَا يُحْيِيكُمْ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَحُولُ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَقَلْبِهِ وَأَنَّهُ إِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ

O you who believe! Answer Allah (by obeying Him) and (His) Messenger when he (SAW) calls you to that which will give you life, and know that Allah comes in between a person and his heart (i.e. He prevents an evil person to decide anything). And verily to Him you shall (all) be gathered.

(8:24)

...

Because tarbiyah and daawah are the elixirs of life. They revitalise our life. They give life.

Thus I refuse to leave,
when Allah still ease me, choose me to be here.
Akhawats, remind me once I forgot my promise. Shake me to reality that I must dedicate myself to this tarbiyah and daawah.

Because they, give life to me.
