This is the story of two beings. One is the possessor of perfection… flawless, unique, eternal, and unparalleled. The other is a victim of negligence, a prisoner of biases, a slave to emotions, and a captive of desires.
One is the Exalted Lord. Worthy of every praise. Deserving of all glorification. He does not forget… even the servant who forgets Him. He listens to the sighs of His servants and alleviates their hardships. How magnificent is that Master who, at the call of His servant, responds and becomes their shield against every enemy.
The other is lower. Skill less, destitute, unfruitful, yet filled with so much pride that he denies the Creator of the heavens and earth. If he believes, he associates partners with God. If no one else is available, he begins to serve his own ego.
One is the Almighty, the Merciful, who nourishes the body and provides spiritual guidance. He sends angels, reveals scriptures, and sends prophets so that His servants are not humiliated on the Day of Judgment.
The other is the ignorant one, who instead of supporting the religion of God, fights for his own biases. He denies the truth, rejects faith, and tramples over ethics. He accuses, insults, spreads lies, and slanders. Yet, at the same time, he claims to be a believer.
What is your place between these two beings? You cannot become God. You cannot escape as a criminal. Become a servant. Escape from the slavery of your desires. Cut through the web of biases. Break free from the chains of sectarianism. Let go of hatred. Drink from the cup of servitude and repent. Praise God along with His servants. If you cannot find them, praise Him with the sun, the moon, and the entire universe… for very soon, the roots of the wrongdoers will be severed. The believers will be nourished from the fountain of eternal life.
Get up now, do not delay. Leave behind the filth… and embrace life. Do not let it be too late.
