The Sky is Falling?

As Salaam Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu

(Iblis) said: "Because You have sent me astray, surely I will sit in wait against them (human beings) on Your Straight Path. [Al-A'Raf 7:16]

The sky is falling?


Sound the bells with great alarm,

The wretched one is on the prowl,

As we sleep he causes harm,

A silent beast without a growl.


From day one he made an oath,

Sincere attempt until the end,

He is real …make not joke,

Never will he cease or bend.


The answer lies within the past,

He changes shape over time,

Expertise he has amassed,

To the top he wants to climb.


He knows his end is close at hand,

Yet till the end he strives to reign,

To gain dominion over man,

His prior rank he seeks to gain.


Out of view to mankind,

A vow of truth he did fulfill,

Warming words appearing kind,

Trickery at its highest skill.

Oft-repeated and foretold,

Explicitly for all who look,

Slowly it will all unfold,

The truth explained within THE BOOK.

If someone really hated you because you were given rank above them….would they ever want your success?….or would they seek a way to gain superiority over you by any means possibly?

Shaytan, Satan, Iblees, Lucifer….. whatever name you give him. Just know that he is REAL (maybe more real than you think). For all those interested in connecting the dots ….be sure to know that the world of spirituality and the material world do meet. If you make dhikr all day long without engaging the real world, you only have a portion (albeit the better portion). Likewise, if you master the life of this world and neglect the unseen, your portion is significantly less. But if you follow the unlettered Prophet (PBUH) and combine the two (using this world to understand and as means of obtaining good beyond this world), the truth and falsehood become more apparent.


Interesting facts from the Quran that I found:

• Surah Al A’raf – explains the whole plight of man against his archenemy (read the beginning to the end)
  
• Surah Ibrahim – Ayah 22 ----enough said

Interesting facts from history that I found:

• History of Freemasonry (and their members in our culture – founding fathers, inventors, singers, actors, writers, government officials, powerful business men, etc.)
  
• History of the Knights Templars
  
• The New World Order
  
• A famous Speech on September 11, 1990
  
• A man named Albert Pike and his statue that still stands in DC (what did he predict?)
  
• The fact that many influential men in US history had the Quran in their possession
  
• Why are there strange symbols on our money, on many of our national monuments & sites, and all over government seals
  
• Why are Greek and ancient Egyptian replicas littered all over our government properties
  
  
  Lessons that I learned
  
• Shaytan is REAL (though we see him not, he sees us)
  
• He inspires men to do some great atrocities
  
• He incites people through passion and desire (just as he tempted Adam + Hawwa (AS))
  
• We live in a system designed to feed on passions, desires and wants (and not by accident---many studies have been conducted on the son of Adam to see how he really operates)
  
• Adam (AS) was given a great lesson and a 2nd chance through repentance
  
• Repentance opens doors to starting fresh
  
• Fasting (including limiting all indulgences not just food) – helps tame passion/desires
  
• The Power of the TV (ever wonder why superbowl Ads are millions of £, or why election campaigns are breaking spending records each year?) --- something is for sale for sure (your soul ain’t cheap). Notice how TVs are popping up in gyms, cars, elevators, phones…..almost everywhere you go.

My goal is not to cause any confusion or raise conspiracies………simply to open up some possible realities of the world we live in today…….. and to help people wean themselves away from the weakest of foundations of deception towards the most trusthworthy handhold that will never break……..from the shackles of this world to the vastness of the hereafter………from the worship of other men to the worship of the One who lives and never dies.
