Qur'an 20160911

81.  Those who were left behind rejoiced in their inaction behind the back of the messenger of Allah, they hated to strive and fight with their goods and their persons in the cause of Allah, they said, "Go not forth in the heat."  Say, "The fire of hell is fiercer in heat."  If they only could understand!

82.  Let them laugh a little, much will they weep: a recompense for that that they do.

83.  If then Allah brings you back to any one of them and they ask your permission to come out, say, "Never shall you come out with me, nor fight an enemy with me, for you preferred to sit inactive on the first occasion, then sit you with those who lag behind."

84.  Nor do you ever pray for any one of them that dies, nor stand at his grave, for they rejected Allah and God's messenger, and died in a state of perverse rebellion.

(The Repentance 9:81-84)

Note that it was the act of no action on the first occasion that caused them to die in a state of perverse rebellion.

Poor Piene!

Piene, you're frightened!  Aw poor little sweetheart, everything will be OK inshaAllah (if God wills).  Big business is scary.  You're so young, and you don't have experience.  So please read up regularly on world events if you want to travel and do business.

MashaAllah (by the Will of God), everyone wants my girl, that makes you hot property and big business.  You are a superstar model, maybe too suddenly, but please treat yourself as precious jewels, and keep yourself safe.  For right now, please get plenty of sleep, and eat simple foods.  No spicy foods!  Calm your heart, everything will be OK inshaAllah.

I have to live my life in the Public Eye, and my wife must do the same.  It's awful to have no privacy all of a sudden, but it can be an incredible boost to your career as a model.  Yours and your bosses.  No we're not married yet, but people are crazy right?  This makes life exciting, doesn't it?  True safety is the protection of God, so please pray.  And please don't get greedy.  I want you to post on your Instagram regularly, so I know that you're OK and what you're doing.

As recently as earlier this year, I had another desire for a wife.  She was tempted by wealth, and became involved with organized crime.  She got greedy, fell under their control, and they used her as bait to get to me.  I lost interest in her.

So all of you, please keep yourselves safe and put your trust in Allah.  This is a spiritual path.  You may get scared and bale out, but no one can run away from God.  We can only run towards God.

Here's a nice song to help cheer you up.  Justin seems stiff in this video, no?  Justin, you need you dance everyday or you'll lose your chops!
