#12 What makes us different?
Dear my muslim sisters and brothers,
Do you know what (supposedly) makes us different with the others?
We pray and they don't?
TETT that's wrong. People with other religion pray too.
Our ultimate purpose?
Yea that could be one of it. But wanna know what it truly means by bringing the name of muslim with you wherever you go?
It's your behavior. Your attitude.
A muslim's attitude should reflect the teaching of Islam.
A muslim should be compassion, patient, loving, caring, and other attributes that our beloved Prophet pbuh had demonstrated throughout his lifetime.
So, take a step behind. Look at yourself. How do you behave among your peers? What are the languages that came off your mouth?
Is what you're doing reflecting the best attitude yet?
If you're still far behind fret not, tomorrow is another chance. Change slowly. Talk nicely. Speak good. Be good. Be a true muslim.
I'm not sure if i ever mentioned why i joined yseali but the reason being is that i want to be a muslim ambassador, i want to show that a muslim is able to be a part of the change. I want to show people that "Hey, I am a muslim. My good attitude is reflecting the Islam teaching"
However, after today's usrah i just got struck.
"Oh Allah, the journey has turned me to something i'm not. I've turned into someone i don't know. "
I've changed to be blunt, forward and a lil bit fury. You wanna know why? It's because the people I work with changed me how I behave.
They are always blunt and brutal with me. Curses are their daily snack. I'm sick of them really but what I didn't realize is that I might have just turned into one of them any minute now.
When I'm being nice, they just do not take me seriously. I was trying real hard here, to keep being the person I want to be. But they just challenged me to be blunt too.
I'm scared because if this keeps going I might have just lose myself.
I've noticed this changes when I started to become despise at people. Ohmygod this is not me. If you read my #3 post you know what I really love don't you?
I like talking to strangers and get to know them but now, I prefer to not talk to people and just do my things. I don't really wanna hang out with group of people. I wanted to get back to my room as quickly I can. Oh Lord I hate this new person I've become.
I should be different with how they are. But I just replying the same wavelength.
I shouldn't let those people change me but they just did.
That's why they say,
"You are who you friends are"
You resonate the people you associate with.
How does this relates to my title?
I have violated the behavior of a muslim.
My intention of want to spread the best attitude is just gone.
Please pray that I am able to keep my steadfastness. T-minus 2 days for my departure ✈
