need renaissance!!!

People are obsessed with traditions introduced by our ancestors. The height of ignorance is reached when they incorporate these traditions into religion and follow them painstakingly.
In past people, were ignorant, had lack of education that invited traditions into their lives. As time passes, their grip on the society grew stronger as that of a leech. The present situation is that we succumb to these namesake traditions and would never wink an eye to give them a second thought.
But in the present time,the education, that we fortunately have received, puts the onus on our shoulders to remove all these parasitic germs from the society as their presence makes it unhygienic and cumbersome for us to breathe in. we are being given Quran to be used as weapon against the germs of the society. If you are a girl the onus is more as you can see the atrocities against women in the name of religion, being more rampant.
I do not know why people of 21st era after being acquainted with prefer clumsily to be shackled with traditions. It seems as if education hasn’t enlightened them enough or it could be vice versa that they have shut their mind and not giving space for any kind of ventilation to come in. They are running behind vain traditions that they have been entitled to through inheritance. Without realizing,we have been fortunately been gifted education by Almighty and we should be using it.
Wake up, dude!!!!! Break up the shackles and breathe in open air!!! Guide yourself with Quran that you might have kept securely in reverence on the top shelf of your cupboard. I do not know why people have reduced the importance of Quran to a book that should be kept in each house to ensure good welfare and a book that should be respected to the extent that they shouldn’t be read often. Whenever they have any kind of doubt regarding Islam they won’t refer Quran the gospel words instead look for clerics. I do not know what they think of these clerics. These clerics also refer the same Quran that we have in our house at the highest shelf with layers of dust enhancing its worth. They aren’t different from us.
Now don’t dare to concoct excuses to make up for your flaws as to I do not know Arabic. Dude!!! You will eagerly and willfully be ready if I ask you to learn language like French …… then why not Arabic. At least one should give it an attempt to learn with honesty, rest Allah will better take care of.
Okay!!! If you still find it difficult for yourself then you can better opt for Quran translated into a language that you are well versed in. Go and grab it unfailingly, dude!!! Last but not the least apply your mind, logic to clarify your doubt Allah will surely help you out in your quest of truth.
From my childhood till now the adolescence age I have been observing that Islam is not what people depict it to be. People present Islam with all the traditions that make it cumbersome to follow. People have become diehard and resist to change. But I do not think that I can live with this and even you dude!!!! ……we have to be proactive and bring the renaissance in Islam

my granny died.....

It was one of the worst nightmares that I used to have ever since I saw my friend‘s plight that she couldn't see her granny for the last time because of the damn exams.
I always feared this situation and always wanna escape this. At that time in my little mind whenever it came, my answer to this thought was I will be strong enough and leave my damn exam to see my granny for the last time. But it's rightly said it's easier to say while harder to stay firm to your words and enact.
Allah may forbid this for others. In my school days I always escaped this and God always supported me.
But I realized this nightmare only when I had passed 12th and was preparing for the damn engineering exams. I wish I could attend it. But at that juncture I couldn't take that single step though I wanna. At that time my exams and the fear of my being unable to tolerate funeral scenes of the loved ones pulled me back. It was one of the toughest decisions that I have ever taken. I was in dilemma as a half of my brain commanded me to attend it while the other half under the damn burden of studies couldn't allow me.
Now when the situation is over and nothing could be changed……I regret my being feeble to take that step and see my granny for the last time.
Every time her face comes into my mind and I recollect the days that I spent with her listening to her stories and the way she used to love us…..this makes me more nostalgic and leaves my eyes filled with water.

life changes and views change!

its a great transition .......from school to college.
Well my updates are as followed.I am currently studying b tech in computer science.Though i am still a student but the environment around this student has changed a lot.Its a dream come true for me!!in my childhood i grew up listening to my bros and sisters about this huge lettered word "engineering".since then i had decided my life course.
Like every child in a school,i used to dream of going to a college one day and have the fun that guys have there.At those time school life used to look dull and boring and college life as fascinating as it could be.its quite intrinsic of humans to fall into illusion without realizing that everything that shines is not always gold.We never realized the worth of our school life when we were living it and later we regret and wanna relive our school life if given a chance to do so.I always wonder why is it so.At those times we lived in illusions that college life is so carefree that it looked too exciting for us.
But now ask us about college life,we are full of praises for it but we are more abound in praises of our school life now.The ball is in different court.we keep humming..."gimme some sunshine,gimme some rain,gimme another chance,i wanna grow up once again".Here we have tensions about our future career which do not look prominent from distance unless you are in same water while these tensions just don't affect our marks anymore but our life on a broader aspect.
