" And warn them of the day of intense regret, when the matter shall have been decided; and they are (now) in negligence and they do not believe." - Quran. There are very less of us who can pinpoint their own wrong deeds and even lesser who work harder to make them right before we could cry over them and regret them. Similarly forgiving is hard but admitting your sins and then sincerely apologizing just to achieve the forgiveness is even harder. He was lost in the pit of darkness, he believed that this world is eternal, he forgot the real meaning of life, by name he was definitely Muslim but by deed...? But it doesn't take much longer when Allah tighten his hold, and only the sensible ones can get the 'message' in the moment, the few are there who falls in front of him and ask for his mercy. A sincere call is all just it takes, after all HE is the most merciful of all. *** Highest Ranking: Spiritual #24 03/09/16 Spiritual #28 05/08/16 Spiritual #53 19/07/16 Spiritual #61 16/07/16 Spiritual #71 27/06/16 Spiritual #96 03/05/16 Cover credit: Hershey-z
