I Am Busy
- My mind start 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 the time to sit longer to praise the Allah
- To me rushing out after prayer is nothing odd...
- Since school, i had been busy every minute
- Completing my tutorials and handing it in
- My ECAs took up most of my time always
- 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 prefered to have fun
- I chatted on the phone but i didn't read the Quran
- I spent 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 couldn't spare time to go to the mosque
- I'm too 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
- No time at all to visit a sick Muslim friend
- To orphans and elderly, I hardly lent a hand
- I'm too busy to do community service
- When there were gatherings, I helped the least
- My life was already full of stress
- So i didn't counsel a Muslim in distress
- I didn't spend much time with my family
- B'coz 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 imaan's fall..
- I'm busy here and busy there
- I've no time at all, that's all i care
- I went for religious lessons, just once in awhile
- 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 All_h 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 Allah calls for me
- And I stood before Him with my Life's History
- I feel so guilty b'coz i should 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 depend on my good behaviour
- But i've not 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 deeds
- As I say this, I know your eyes will mist..
- I was about to write some more, you see
- But i did not have Time to list ..
