Power of observation


Just look at this picture. You can hear the sound of water cascading down through the pebbles, stones, rocks and boulders. The srub of bamboo trees reaching high for the blue sky. A half fallen tree that's still struggling for its very existance. Can you hear the sound of crikets singing the song of zikr.? Praising Allah every minute of its breath. And the colourful butterfly flapping its wing softly in the blow of the soft wind. The dragonflies flying in pairs; always in pairs as Allah has precribe it to be. The different shades of green on the leaves. In your mind you can almost see small fish swimming in group for security in numbers. The rays of the glorious sun pushing their ways through the leaves. The bright spot infront and the shady spot at the back. All the similarities and contrast. All the diversities and varieties. All the serenity and peace of mind.

Subhanallah! I am short of words to describe the beauty that Allah has created for mankind, for us to observe, reflect, think, appreciate, adore....... We a re asked to perform ziarah or travel to see the signs of the great creator. It's all around us, everyday, every second. If only everything reminds us of Allah then Allah is in our hearts. Strive for that. Good luck.
