Bismillah...
"Their meat will not reach Allah , nor will their blood, but what reaches Him is piety from you. Thus have We subjected them to you that you may glorify Allah for that [to] which He has guided you; and give good tidings to the doers of good."
Al-Hajj,22:37
“Dari Aisyah r.a. katanya; Rasulullah s.a.w. bersabda: “Tiada amalan anak Adam pada hari Aidil Adha yang disukai Allah selain daripada menyembelih korban. Korban-korban itu akan datang kepada orang yang melakukannya pada hari kiamat seperti keadaan semula, iaitu dengan anggotanya, tulangnya, tanduknya dan bulunya. Darah korban itu lebih dahulu jatuh ke suatu tempat yang disediakan Tuhan sebelum jatuh ke atas tanah. Oleh sebab itu, berkorbanlah dengan senang hati”.
(at-Tirmidzi dan Ibnu Majah)

"..a certain kind of sadness"
untapped waters
underneath..cold and dark
it's unsolved
somehow...time kept being pulled from beneath us
fate wouldn't let it
and these dangerous waters kept piling up
what's it for, O Allah swt?
so that when the glass breaks, we'd know?
what we really are?
how bonds can unite and break?
how strong would you hold unto them?
how strong would oneself hold unto Allah?
when dunya is taken from us
it's ok
Prophets Ismail a.s and Ibrahim a.s (pbuh) love for Allah swt
extends beyond their own blood-relationship
extends beyond what future may brings it
extends what whispers aimed to stray oneself from the straight path
that kind of submission
full and wholeheartedly
so that when that sacrifice is made
You exchange Prophet Ismail a.s (pbuh) with a ram
as a reward for those who do good deeds
what intention have I when that flesh and blood passed through these fingers?
that it'd be treated as any ordinary day, any ordinary meat?
no.
this to remind us
how Tauhid is being raised above anything else
when one does have that kind of position in his/her heart
to admit and fully accept the power that govern his/her life
even if threatens to take one closest to you
to choose Allah swt, nevertheless...
just when I thought the decision is being taken from me
it's Yours, O Allah swt
it has always been Yours for the taking
"Hearts in the hand of another heart and in God's hand are all hearts"
