Let us be abnormal!

Assalamualaikum wbt :)
May this post find you in the best iman n health insyaAllah..

Alhamdulillah, thanks to Allah for giving me a chance to share sth with all of u again..
This time, I am going to invite all of u to ponder together about our own selves.. Do we really2 know our selves very very well?? How well can we describe ourselves?

Every time we woke up from sleep, have we ever wondered why is it that we always repeat the same thing every day, every year and the time frame goes on..

Early morning, we woke up from sleep, then we go to school/uni/office/ anywhere that we should go because of responsibilities that we have.. be it as a student/ employee/ whatever you call it... then, we go back home, have some lunch --> dinner --> sleep again --> then, woke up again --> then, the same cycle continues... every day..every year.....until we die?

But, why should we think so critically about this cycle.. just let it be? it will only make our head spinning to think too much about the reason behind all this cycle..rite? R we gonna think like this..? If we are created as a tree, or frog or cat etc..then, it's ok to think this way...

BUT, we r neither tree nor animals! Rite? Do we agree on this statement? I really hope we do..:p
And, what makes this thing even more serious is that we r MUSLIMS.. And as MUSLIMS, we must not have the desire to follow the normal way of life! We should always aim to be abnormal = EXTRAORDINARY.. because we dont want to be ended in normal place like the hellfire..rite? We want extraordinary place... we want the jannatulfirdaus..the highest level of jannah..

So, if we want Allah to treat us extraordinarily, we should act extraodinarily..! But how?
Niat (intention) makes the different to the life cycle that all of us have... always niat for Allah's blessings in whatever we do... and do the good things constantly...

"The deed most loved by Allah (are those) done regularly, even if they are small."
[Bukhari n Muslim]

Surah Al Mulk: 1-2
Blessed is He in Whose hand is the kingdom, and He has power over all things,
Who created death and life that He may try you-- which of you is best in deeds; and He is the Mighty, the Forgiving,

Below is a video for us to reflect on..insyaAllah...
