Everyday as I wake up at dawn
My mind starts working the moment I yawn.
There were many things to do, o dear!
That’s why I hastily did my Subuh prayer
I didn’t have time to sit longer to praise the Lord
To me rushing out after prayer is nothing odd?
Since school, I had been busy every minute
Completing my tutorials and handing it in
No time did I have to Allah to pray.
Too many things to do and zikir is rare
For Allah, I really had no time to spare?
When I grew up and started my career
Working all day to secure my future.
When I reached home, I preferred to have fun
I chatted on the phone but I didn’t read the Quran
I spend too much time surfing the internet
Sad to say, my faith was falling flat?
The only time I have left is weekends
During which I prefer window shopping with friends
I’m so busy, that’s the BIG EXCUSE?
I did my five prayers but did so quickly
After prayer, I didn’t sit longer to reflect quietly
I didn’t have time to help the needy ones
I was loaded with work as my precious time runs
My life is already full of stress
So I didn’t counsel a Muslim in distress
I didn’t spend much time with my family
Because I thought, doing so is a waste of time?
No time to share with non-muslim about Islam
Even though I know, inviting causes no harm
No time to do Sunnah prayers at all
All these contribute to my iman’s fall
I’m busy here busy there
I’ve no time at all, that’s all I care
I went for religious lessons, just once in a while
‘Coz I’m too busy making a pile?
I worked all day and I slept all night
Too tired for Tahajjud and it seemed not right
To me, earning a living was already tough
So I only did basic deeds but that’s not enough?
No time at all to admire God’s creation
No time to praise Allah and seek His Compassion
Although I know how short is my life
For Islam I really didn’t strive?
Finally the day comes, when the Lord calls for me
And I stood before Him with my Life’s History
I feel so guilty because I could have prayed more
Isn’t that what a Muslim lives for?
To thank Allah and do more good deeds
And the Quran is for us all to read?
Now, at Judgement Day, I’m starting to fret
I’ve wasted my life but it’s too late to regret
My entry to Paradise depends on my good behaviour
But I’ve done enough nor did proper prayer
My “good deed book” is given from my right
An angel opened my “book” and read out my plight
Then the angel chided me?
“O You Muslim servant,you are the one who is given enough time, yet not much is done
Do you know that your faith is loose?”
Saying no time is only an excuse
Your “good deed book” should be filled up more
With all the good work you stood up for?
Hence I only recorded those little good deed
As I say this, I know your eyes will mist?
I was about to write some more, you see
But I did not have, THE TIME to list??
But, but…
I still have time for TVs, CDs, Movies and empty entertainment..
adakah kite mengUcapkan alhamdUlillah hari ini?? ataS segala nikmat dan kUrniaan ALLAH kepada kite
