Surah Yaseen

I would like to talk a little bit about Surah Yaseen. To be honest, not until recently, I never ever finish recite it alone because I consider it too long, and I don't read Quran very well don't cater well for me to start reading it.

Since my late grandmother passed away last two years I been dreaming of her quite frequently. I do miss her very badly; just thinking of her is more than enough for me to shed my tears. So I been thinking of reciting Yaseen for her but I quite worried I don't do well. But I told to myself "Till what end I will continue like this, it has to begin somewhere".

So roughly about two months ago I start to recite Yaseen on regular interval. I don't wait for Friday night to do it, I just chose any time that convenient for me, during Dhuha time after Dhuha prayer in between classes, late night when there is no class tomorrow, or weekend like now after Maghrib prayer. At first, like I predicted, I'm reading it at unbelievably slow rate, maybe half an hour to do it. It wasn't as bad as I think it would be. I believe in one thing, if I really put my mind on it Allah would surely help me. And it indeed true.

Soon I get better reciting it, not only that I have enough spare time to read its meaning. This is my habit; I don't like to just read things without knowing its meaning. Those are the reason I don't listen to foreign music such as Japanese, Chinese, Korean and so forth. The meaning of Yaseen is nothing short of astounding. Its a short surah jam packed with information, with very deep meaning, and it shows everything. And I mean everything. It tells us about cosmos, the sun for example, despite it looks static but its actually spinning on its place. And moon, how that it would return from full moon to sickle shape, and how sun could not appear at nighttime, and vice versa for the moon. This is one big reason that there is no way Rasulullah would know this 1400 years ago when there is no telescope or any other instruments to see it. It got to be from Almighty Allah.

Not only that, Yaseen tells us taht Allah gives us all the necessities in everyday life. Animal, for instance cattle, how some of them being used for transportation, some we use for eating, some even have more benefits than that, like milk. Why we still not grateful?

The more I read the more I see the 'free' things Allah gives we take for granted, our heart for example, pumping blood so strong, even when we pierced using needle on the tip of our fingers blood coming out from it. How much pressure, and yet we feel perfectly normal. Who control this? Why we still not grateful? We take things for granted.

I simply can't continue writing, tears just running down my cheek faster than I can type. I think about how Muslim still do what they do? What happen to Muslim nowadays? Its sad...very sad.....
