Qur'an 20080222

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

12. Truly does thou marvel, while they ridicule.

13. And when they are admonished, pay no heed,

14. And when they see a Sign, turn it into mockery,

15. And say, "This is nothing but evident sorcery!"

16. "What? When we die, and become dust and bones, shall we be raised up?"

17. "And also our fathers of old?"

18. Say, "Yea, and you shall then be humiliated."

19. Then it will be a single cry, and behold, they will begin to to see!

20. They will say, "Ah! Woe is us! This is the Day of Judgment!"

21. This is the Day of Sorting Out, whose Truth you denied!

Yea, and you shall then be humiliated.

Today, I have been observing the Wealth of Allah. Not just massive amounts of money, food and property, but also the natural and supernatural abundance. I ask myself, "Is this what the greedy, the drunk and the arrogant have been wanting to see all this while?" The point is, they REFUSE to see it. I also found it odd that the skeptical would believe in magic and superstition over God. So I just took what was given to me this day, and continued my journey.

9:55 pm Friday, February 22, 2008: They still don't see it.

Some quotes I heard over the brainwaves:

"I was only joking!"
"I'm fucked up, I was just messing around!"
"I was just having fun."
"Don't take it personally, I wasn't being serious!"
"There's nothing wrong with a bit of laughter!"
