It can be best termed as a statement to the reality of FATE.
Yes, fate.
Everything that happens, from the positively progressive to the horrifically tragic. From the development of an Iraqi parliament to the disastrous death toll. From your daily routines to shocking world events.
This is especially crucial in the Islamic world today.
Many Muslims, after seeing 9/11, the chaos in Iraq, and the rhythmic international backlash against Islam, have lost hope. But it seems that the same number who have lost hope, is doubled by the number of people who have worked EVEN harder to preserve the fundamental Islam that the world has forgotten.
The most chaotic Muslim nation in the world (Somalia) has found a pro-Muslim path, and the most secular Muslim nation in the world (Iraq) has found a fundamentally-Islamic way of life.
What I mean to say, is that, in spite of all that the Islamic religion and Muslim world have gone through in recent years, certain large arenas of life have gotten brighter and look to get brighter than before the calamities of past years.
I hope you understand now. *wipes sweat off forehead*
