Letter to Julia 20130904

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

YOOOOOLIIIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Not just to vindicate the weak and the innocent, but to vindicate them for the love of Allah.  That is what is important.

Fluffy is such a little barbarian, Julia.  You wouldn't think so from looking at her.  She's such a miniature little kitty, and she's so cute with her fluffy, long, blond and white fur, but she's a barbarian.  She refuses to use the cat box, so don't ever let her into the house if you don't intend to keep an eye on her.  And her appetite is out of control... she'll eat anything!  She's been having diarrhea lately, and I've been wondering why.  But today, I saw her eat a 3 day old lizard carcass.  Bleah!  No wonder her tummy hurts!

Qur'an 20130904

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

77.  Have you not turned your vision to those who were told to restrain their hands, but establish regular prayers, and spend in regular charity?  When the order for fighting was issued to them, behold!  A section of them feared men as, or even more than, they should have feared Allah.  They said, "Our Lord!  Why have You ordered us to fight?  Would You not grant us respite to our term, near?"  Say, "Short is the enjoyment of this world.  The Hereafter is best for those who do right.  Never will you be dealt with unjustly in the very least!"

78.  Wherever you are, death will find you out, even if you are in towers built up strong and high!  If some good befalls them, they say, "This is from Allah."  But if evil, they say, "This is from you."  Say, "All things are from Allah."  But what has come to these people, that they fail to understand a single fact?

The Women 4:77-78

Short is the enjoyment of this world.  The Hereafter is best for those who do right.  Never will you be dealt with unjustly in the very least!

All things are from Allah.
