Simple, religion. My mom is a confirmed 7th day adventist and lives next to a church that plays music 24 hours a day and quite frankly my mom hates all Muslims and would like nothing better than to anialate the whole bunch. I have an extremely rich aunt in Missouri who owns several jets and she has offered many times to fly me back to America in her private Jet, and convert me to being a Christian, but that is not possible. I am a confirmed Muslim till death.
I believe that Allah is more important than family and it is a strength most don't understand. I have offered many times to send my mom money but she refuses. She knows that I struggle for money myself so we live like this. She tries not to lecture and I lecture on occasion. Many have tried to convert me but I am free to be me. I was rich before, I owned a top Real Estate firm in California and I was Muslim then. I became so popular and had so much that I could spread the wealth around. Helped so many organizations, gave tons of charity and helped the mosque each month paid their rent but I had to choose money or religion and I chose religion and walah here I am. Not an easy life but one I chose freely and without reservation.
I have a friend in Iowa and she loves it there but I can never leave my religion. Sorry in America being Muslim is hard, and tough. I had my life threatened many times there. I had men attack me because I wore different clothes. Here I am normal, well maybe not normal but I fit in.
You have to have extreme faith my friend, you have to believe with all your heart and soul in your creator. You have to know the excitement of the next life and you have to know that no matter how briefly you know a person it is for a reason. Who knows maybe the grapeseeds will save your mom, but please note that whatever I do or say to someone is from God not me. I am merely a servant and I am just so excited today and yes back to my old fisty self. Lord help the forums I am back with a vengeance. I mean that I am back to my crazy self.
I admire you, one who loves your mom so much. For you are sacrifice so much for you. Can I offer you some advice. Tell God right now you give your Mom to him and he can do whatever he wants and that you will accept his decision. Tell him not to let you be in charge of your life not for one moment and he will do what is best for you in this life and the next. We have to have faith, we have to believe in tomorrow and we have to believe that if our blessed creator takes care of the food for the birds that fly, the worms that crawl and the animals of the ground survive can he not take care of our moms. Well now we don't always like Allah's or God's decision but you will come to see it was for the best. Lord, I have talked to long. I am just so excited today. Our fast is finished and I am preparing to go and praise Allah and thank him for his bounty. Isn't just the best day ever.
Do you love walmart too? Hey you start the thread on barefoot, get in there and debate. We need to quit being afraid of what others say. hahahah. Just kidding thank God everyday you have enough money for your orange juice. You need to be an advocate of barefoot. Declare yourself a barefooter and shout it to the world. "I am a barefooter and I don't care who knows." Great day, my friend. Go kiss your mom for me.....
