View Full Version : my impossible quest...

...


yah its like ramadan. 100% ramadan.

there is unfortunoutly 12 days left of ramadhan, meaning two days until the 10 days of the chances of laylatil qadr comes.

What i wanna accomplish, is to memorize the complete quran, quit music, and have my faith very high and true, and to see islam clear, wit no more of dem stupid questions of mine... basically be a truemuslim :D which im currently not.

All i ask from Allah swt during the whole ramadhan and last days of ramadhan is for these four things. All i need to finish my life is these four things.

I always ask for dua for these four things, for a long time. before i joined the forum. (except the music thing coz i only learned that FROM the forum) and nothing has changed except i get worse.

Sssooo...i wanna be one of dem kwl peoples in da jannah inshallah with all u sisters :statisfie. if i have my faith and islam in life i wouldnt give a dam about nothing else. just deen. deen. deen..deeeeeen. and of course school coz then i would be poor gurl with no money to give to charity after my future husband would never give charity because he a greedy dady side...:X oops.

I wanna kno how to finish my impossible quest.
Currently i believe i cant...sorry. i KNOW i cant.
but i'll try anyway.

since im faithless, bad, shameless sinner, and very sucky in college algebra, i have no confidence i can accomplish this.

why???

1. what if i miss a prayer or be late for a prayer when the last ten days begin! imsad

2. What if you kno....umm....should i say this ..again?...ok ok fne...what if allah stilll up ther ignoring/watching and laughin. :-[:-[:-[:-[:-[

3. If allah doesnt answer, what would it mean? and its the last ten days they say allah answers everyone. whatever it is. and if he dont answr mine what it mean? im a horible horrible horrible shaitan in a human body?

4. When i make dua on the last days it has to be sincere, and true...why issit when i make dua i never feel its sincere enough??

5. i have the word cant in my vocab.




I just need help with this. this is like my only chance. i never even thought about lailatul qadr yet when i used to struggle wit music. lol "used to " hahaha what the hell im sayn?? i meant stil do.

If there is any dua to use during laylatul qadr or anything please share it it will be useful to me and everyone else. :statisfie



Jazakumallah khair

As salamu alaykum,

The last ten nights of Ramadan are almost upon us, and I
wanted to take this moment to remind you about a cool Dua
technique that I do during the last ten nights.

When I was 12 years old, I used this technique, and 2 years
later I had memorized the ENTIRE Quran!

Here's what you do:
Step 1: Ask yourself: If Allah said he would give me
ANYTHING, what would I ask for? Brainstorm at least for one
page.

Step 2: Choose 6 of the most precious things on your list.

Step 3: Make dua for these 6 specifically every night for
the entire last ten nights of Ramadan.

ONE of those nights HAS to be Laylatul Qadr, so your dua
will correspond to LaylatulQadr if you make the same dua
every night. How cool is that?


With best wishes to see you succeed at the highest level!
- Muhammad Alshareef
Like akhi said You can do it :) you just needed the will and now u have it

Sis did u say u want to memorize the entire Quraan within 12 days?
Sorry but that goal doesn't sound very realistic. Only if ur close to being done, maybe?:sunny:

1. what if i miss a prayer or be late for a prayer when the last ten days begin!

If u really make lots of effort and do everything u can. u wont miss it inshaAllah. Dont Miss it!

2. What if you kno....umm....should i say this ..again?...ok ok fne...what if allah stilll up ther ignoring/watching and laughin.

I didnt get this Question Sis?

3. If allah doesnt answer, what would it mean? and its the last ten days they say allah answers everyone. whatever it is. and if he dont answr mine what it mean? im a horible horrible horrible shaitan in a human body?

No..lol. It means ur human no ones perfect gal. Do not dispair if it appears your du'a are not answered. Continue to have faith and patience and be content with what Allah has written for you.

4. When i make dua on the last days it has to be sincere, and true...why issit when i make dua i never feel its sincere enough??

Well, if u have good intentions that's sincere?

5. i have the word cant in my vocab.

Well kick that outa ur vocan den..Simple.:sunny:

You can do anything you set your mind to.

He might give you something better than what u'r asking for, or he might save it for u for the akhirah, or he might not give it to u cuz it might be harmful for you in someway...

thats good well said darkness and light never mix meaning good and evil doesnt mix in one heart.

the music thing - if you dont stop then something happens but if you stop a lot happens and you actually feel like you Imaan is boosting

Imagin three things in a line. the middle is heart, the right is soul which is rooh and the left is Nafs (desires) which is shaytaan in other words. the nafs tries to capture the heart by telling you to do worldly desires such as listening to music while the innocent rooh tells you to do the good thing. and if nafs captures your heart then slowly it began to capture your rooh and thats dangerous. if you still about Allah then think your safe but cut the music and you'll see the big difference

and im talking from experience

Yeh I kno, thats what alot of people been sayin, but never put it in that way, mashallah. Thats why I want Allah to help me stop music. I dont WANT to stop music even if i can, thats why i NEED ALLAH. and faith is all i need to do this, which is another thing i ask from allah.
i just need those four things and my life puzzle has been complete, dont mind goin to palestine and whupin sum @$$ then :statisfie

k but take the first step...if you take one step towards Allah and walk to him he'll run to you...but YOU have to be the one taking the step, even if its a huge mission, it'll show how much you really are sincere

imagine this, someone's sitting somewhere slacking, they don't wana get up or do anything, are they going to get anything done?

after i finish that i'll re download it
why? no really why? you know its wrong, you know you wana stop so why torture yourself? why download it again?

and i actually remember its haram everytime i open it up, but i say ya ok dont matterr.

A qawwali is the sufi kind of music which was means of spreading Islam when Islam first came in india. Its basically a group of people. There are musical instruments and they sing a song. Usually its an islamic song with deep poetry but with musical instruments

Its only impossible if you think it is. I cant is almost like saying I shant. If you dont want to you wont but if you want to then get rid of the word cant. You can and you will. And that paragraph could earn me a distinction so read it please :p

But seriously sis, if you KNOW what you want to do and what you need to do to get there then you're already on the road to recovery. And Allah (swt) only changes the condition of a people until they change it themsevles.

Look to those above you in Imaan and 'Ilm and strive to be like them.

like the fact that its getting depressing with the same two songs ? big challenge for me right this second : Close it coz its depressing and delete em VS download 1 or 2 more to make less depressing.

i kno the choice and i kno what u would prolly do and all but why issit soooo hard when its soooo easy??????

Edit: even tho i ended up closing it anyway...

Thats good. Man this is like im telling someone how to defuse a bomb. Its so tense. Simple exercise for you is put your hands on your knees and sit staring at clock or time. If you can sit two minutes quietly and observe carefully how many times the thought comes in your mind?

It's simple:

You have to have the will, the desire to quit listening to music.

And also you have to stop insulting the British, you are getting to the point of racism and you've been doing it for quite a while now.

i ruined it on the first day! and befor iftar! i just go and start slap boxing wit my bro (HE MADE ME!) and then i decide to turn on the radio, then i remember lailatul qadr and close it, then i say just this one song and listen to it and the next 10 songs on FM. then i go to outlandish which i havent listened to in like forever...then back to abu ali. which is strange....then back to haram again :-[:exhausted

You did great though. Maybe try one more time. Why dont you recite the Quran or if not then do Dhikr while walking or doing things. That sure will take your mind off the radio. Plus turn the knob of sincerity to max. Make dua as if you want it to happen and Allah will listen. He is the best listener.

u know truemuslim, i would try till I succeed. I would try to till i killed the shaitan inside me. or at least ove power it that it does not come between the things that are prescribed and i know that they are wrong. today i heared music - i would get enraged on myself try again again and again and again till i beat the requirement of 'want to hear it'. that is what is known as jihaad which allah subhanawa tallah loves. and finally allah will love you.
-------------------------------------
a small example
u should be a bit tactful with yourself. like i realized that tea was not good as i got addicted to it as drugs. if i didnt had it my head would go mad with such a bad headache i cant describe and i just wanted tea.i decided a clear no to myself. as it was creating acidity and lot other stuff. then i tortured myself for 1 week. whenever i felt like drinking tea specially in the mornings when the head ache was too high i had kept a cup of tea (previous days) with that bad smelling coming out of it - it was the left over in it. whenever i felt that i use to say want to have tea - have it and try smelling that bad odour. i would repel it like nothing else. i kept doing it for 1 week- then i started an inclination towards coffee - i thought that it was more harmful. alhamdulillah ramadan started and now i am without coffee and tea.
then i found out why i need tea. i wanted that major kick off at work in the morning. its like we dont understand what our body wants to say. its like early morning after 1 hour of travel i expect to work immididately - not happening. so i made it a point like every morning doing some work which will freshen me up. like anything uploading videos. or writing something. anything. sparing 15 minutes makes u freshen up for the whole day. similarly find out why u want music - what is it - that u can complete ur body's demand in a halal way. as our aim is not to kill ourself but just to remove the bad habits. this depends on person to person. u might find urslef revolting too much and at times u might even get bugged, but its ok those r the tantrums ur self plays - as it loves to be in ease. u have to get hold of yourself make it do in a calm manner.- aah its too much of advice. but above all - just want u too know - that u r important .
take care

______________________________

actually after i broke my "not listen to music" thing, i actually surprisingly never broke it again, but right now im getting the urrrrge to redownload chris brown :raging::raging::raging: '
and actualy for the first time ever in my life i actually prayed and felt like the prayer worked. like allah excepted and everything, i prayed some night prayers the first night at like 1am and end at about 3am, and the first prayer my heart felt so much like allah loves me , which i never feel. then it wears off and i go again, and again and again, and so on, then my eyes filled with tears, because its the first time i ever felt that way for real :statisfie in the end, i make my dua, first i go wit first four, then i go with the rest.
they say lailatul qadr shud be on the 26th, but i dont believe they would know when it is at all, every night i'll make sincere, and the past two nights i've made sincere. (i think)

Jazakumallah khair everyone because whenever im about to listen to music or sumthin i remember the exact words of some of u , and i actually am able to resist a bit. :exhausted:statisfie :)

That means your mind is into that stuff, solution is easy, just find an alternative, firstly uninstall programs like limewire, ares and other p2p sharing programs. Download quranic mp3 when u feel like listening to music from here (QuranicAudio.com), get your lazy ass of your computer and play football, cricket whatever u play there in the US, read salah, go to evening classes in ur local mosque, go do extra curricular activities in your school. or else u'll be more tempted to do this if u spend a lot of time on the net.

i kno im into that stuff. and yeh i just uninstalled limewire and zune :exhausted. and you kno what im gonna get my "lazy self" off the computer, but if im gna do that ima have to listen to music just for a few hours to complete crap school work, then ima go do something islamic and after iftar when it gets dark ima go play tha thing we call BASKETBALL. i dont have any evening classes in the masjid unless your talking about those things people gather up for to play sports and listen to MUSIC?
