Tell me, if a diabetic patient is injected with
Chloroquine instead of Insulin to lower his or her glucose level, what effect do
you think it will have on the patient’s blood sugar?
Same way, I know Allah listens to hearts, but lately
I have been thinking, like maybe our dua'a (prayers) should also be purpose,
craving or situation specific, so that we can have a sure response for what is
being prayed for, and to not be using "one size fits all" prescriptions
for every ailment.
Hold on! I like giving illustrations, and it’s
just an example yeah. For instance you’re at a funeral, and the departed soul happens
to be a LIAR, and instead of praying for Allah’s forgiveness and mercy on the
lying soul, or for protection from the punishment of the grave, you choose to flaunt
how versed you’re by plunging deep into the Quran, say ‘Surah Ali- Imran’ for
instance, wherein there is a verse that says: “... and pray for the curse of
Allah on the LIARS.”
See what you've done, what do you think that
recitation is invoking, with Angels all around listening to what’s being said
about the deceased? I bet if the dead could come back to life for a sec, this one
will reawaken just to place his or her hand over your mouth and say: “Shhh!
Just shut up if you have nothing nice to say”
Anyway! I am not a scholar and I am not
pretending to be one, this is just a thinking I had, and Allah knows best! - May
all these differently beautiful ladies I see veiling either in solidarity with
their Hijabi sisters or just in observance of World Hijab Day be able to draw inspiration
from it [Amen]– now that’s the type of
purpose specific dua'a I'm talking about.... :)
