What else that you want God to show?

I had come across this video several times, but I tend to just simply ignore it. I don’t know why. I saw somebody post it on their FB’s wall, blogs and what not. Still, I don’t care much. Hurm, until the last nite, during Haflah Wada’ Ex-Maahadian (Maktab Mahmud) at edu square, the committee showed this video while waiting for the guests to come.

It’s quite windy at that time and it was really a different feeling. Sitting alone at the back while others sit on the chair provided. It was really a calm feeling that I haven’t experienced before.

It was a music video of Maher Zain-Open your Eyes.

It makes me thinking….Allah’s guidance comes in the shape that we don’t even ever think of. And slowly I said to myself… Allah has shown me enough evidence of His Mercy and Gratefulness. Why don’t I show Him a true obedience?!

There is a story included in that music video. The story is about how an Aussie found his true Religion (Islam) through unexpected experience. That experience triggers me to think. I just like feeling WOW! It is only the chosen one can experience such event. He has been chosen by Allah to receive Hidayah. O Allah, you are the greatest GOD! No other god except Allah! The one and the ONLY!

That night, I downloaded the video, and keep playing it over and over again, especially the story of that Aussie’s part. It directly touched my heart, I cried for God sake! The way that Allah shows the sign indirectly portray the Almighty God! Yeah, definitely, the signs of existence of Allah are all around me, the ignorance of me blinded everything.

This song urges us to open our eyes! See around us! It is the sign of ALLAH!

It is never too late to realize that we are living in this world is not for nothing, it is for something. Something in the Hereafter that we don’t even imagine how it could be.

Live as if Allah is watching us. Yes, definitely He watches us, every single minute, without fail!

Realize that every single thing in this world is created for something. Allah will never create something that is useless. All life on this earth has its own purposes of living. Some of it, we don’t even care of, and we tend to ignore it! Human is so ignorance! Huh… (It’s me, not you.)

Thank you Allah! :-)

Open your Eyes-Maher Zain

Look around yourselves
Can’t you see this wonder
Spreaded infront of you
The clouds floating by
The skies are clear and blue
Planets in the orbits
The moon and the sun
Such perfect harmony

Let’s start question in ourselves
Isn’t this proof enough for us
Or are we so blind
To push it all aside..
No..

We just have to
Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds
If we just look bright to see the signs
We can’t keep hiding from the truth
Let it take us by surprise
Take us in the best way
(Allah..)
Guide us every single day..
(Allah..)
Keep us close to You
Until the end of time..

Look inside yourselves
Such a perfect order
Hiding in yourselves
Running in your veins
What about anger love and pain
And all the things you’re feeling
Can you touch them with your hand?
So are they really there?

Lets start question in ourselves
Isn’t this proof enough for us?
Or are we so blind
To push it all aside..?
No..

We just have to
Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds
If we just look bright to see the signs
We can’t keep hiding from the truth
Let it take us by surprise
Take us in the best way
(Allah..)
Guide us every single day..
(Allah..)
Keep us close to You
Until the end of time..

When a baby’s born
So helpless and weak
And you’re watching him growing..
So why deny
Whats in front of your eyes
The biggest miracle of life..

We just have to
Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds
If we just look quiet we’ll see the signs
We can’t keep hiding from the truth
Let it take us by surprise
Take us in the best way
(Allah..)
Guide us every single day..
(Allah..)
Keep us close to You
Until the end of time..

Open your eyes and hearts and minds
If you just look bright to see the signs
We can’t keep hiding from the truth
Let it take us by surprise
Take us in the best way
(Allah..)
Guide us every single day..
(Allah..)
Keep us close to You
Until the end of time..

Allah..
You created everything
We belong to You
Ya Robb we raise our hands
Forever we thank You..
Alhamdulillah..
