Ask God Now

This thought hit me so hard that I just can't ignore it and start to write again in this blog.

You know what, think of the time when you were in trouble. Think of the time when you were sick. Think of the time when nothing went fine. Think of the time when your chest felt as if it would burst any second at any time.

And remember how many times you called God to fix the thing for you. Remember how many times you asked God to make the way easy for you. Remember the time you asked God to lend you the strength to walk through the rough and cold season.

And how many times did God answer your call? Every time! Each and every time! Some in ways that you can see it with your naked eye and some in ways that you could only understand if you have patience hold inside your soul.

See, we are the living proof that God answers every prayer. But there will come a time when our call, our prayers will be ignored. And that's when we know everything is too late. When is that? When we already died. When our time's up. When our time to beg for forgiveness and to repent to Allah is up.

Try to imagine the day when you call God, but He will ignore you. You call and call and call but you know He won't answer you. You have no one left. Not even your parents, your family, your best friend. No. You will be alone in the darkest place. Not a single ray of light can pass and lighten your place. Unless you bring with you Al-Quran. Unless you bring with you the deeds you've done. Unless you bring with you a heart that love Allah swt and Rasulullah saw more than anything else.

And here we are, so busy praying for our lives, for our futures, our studies, our desires, yet we forget to pray for our lives in the hereafter. We are so concern about who we're going to marry or how will our life be in 10 years from now, yet we forget to care about our lives after our death. There's no second chance, man. You get one shot and you have to do it right. And our whole lives, every second that counts, every oxygen we inhale, we know it won't last.

And this is our chance to pray, may Allah have mercy on us on the Day of Judgement. Because right now is the perfect moment to pray, may Allah save us from hell and His wrath. Ask Allah to have mercy on us and forgive our sins. Ask Allah to save us from all kind of punishment and put us among those whom He loves.

Remember, no matter how small or how short the test was, we never come to like it. Imagine forever.
