Making Power moves…

Salam Yo

Growing up in this corrupt society, being around haram environments (meaning places where people have haram practices, smoking weed, drinking, flirting you name it), associating with people who don’t really pray, I would say that there was a time when i came to the realization that i had to make power moves.

I think that alot of us go through this phase, and we gotta just step up and be real with people, i feel as if we are embarrassed to be Muslims, ever since i started growing a beard, people have started interesting conversations with me, where as other’s are like “oh you have a beard, but Islam is not in the beard”, so what am i supposed to do shave it off?, I don’t get people sometimes.
When you do bad they criticize you, which is acceptable because of course we should help each other, but not expose each other.

Meaning don’t tell the world the sins what kind of sins a person has committed, keep it on the low, you do that, Allah will cover yours on the day of judgement. Yea so i can understand when someone takes me to the side and says this is wrong brother saad, work on it. Alhumduillah good to know brothers care, but how about when you do good like grow a beard, and then every time you do something a little wrong, one guy has to come along and point out your faults in front of everybody, Weirdos.

So like i don’t understand, when i do bad, they criticize me, when i try to revive a sunnah, they point out every mistake, but umm gotta let stuff like that slide inshallah, because we submit to Allah, and Allah knows what in our hearts and our intentions before we do anything. That’s the beauty of Allah, he is the all knowing, so yes we have these moments when someone try’s to degrade us, but our sincere efforts are always known by Allah. Alhumduillah.

So Make power moves, stop being scared, it’s now or never, you would be surprise how many people become alert of deen through your power moves, halal transitions.

So inshallah let’s make power moves, internalize criticism. It’s always easy for us to look at other peoples faults. I like what Imam Ghazali said “the hypocrite looks for faults, the believer looks for excuses. Another important thing which i wanted to say is don’t cut off ties by becoming more on the deen. Show people that you don’t take practice in haram practices but let em know you will be there to help them, because this in reaction can bring them closer to the deen, Inshallah, and even people who you might think are bad, you will learn something from them, remember the worst state a person can be in is when he has confirmed that he has reached his highest potential in life. That will lead to his or her downfall. THROW YOUR PRIDE ON THE FLOOR!

Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: Verily Allah likes three things for you and He disapproves three things for you. He is pleased with you that you worship Him and associate nor anything with Him, that you hold fast the rope of Allah, and be not scattered; and He disapproves for you irrelevant talk, persistent questioning and the wasting of wealth.

Inshallah hold on to the rope of Allah and be strong. Ameen! Power moves Yo!
