Guide Me To Paradise..

Once I’ve known of a woman, who was so full of herself,
Thinking that she was blessed with good looks, luck, charm and attractiveness,
Knowing that she didn’t have to try hard to achieve outstanding results,
Never lacking of suitors trying to get to know her,
Arrogantly believing that she was the best….
Yes, I knew she was…

Overbearing on her ego trip, she turned haughty and stuck up.
It wasn’t a concern if anyone else was hurt…
To her, it doesn’t matter.

As it was told that life isn’t a bed of roses,
All are fair in love and war,
She found herself trapped in a love triangle,
A love of a married man.

It was then that she asked herself,
What have I done to deserve this?

Out of love, she sees couples holding hands¸
She wonders, will I ever fall in love again…

She gets envious of people, who are infatuated with the idea of love..
Am I not beautiful or smart enough to deserve someone who really loves me?

O God, help me please to relieve this pain..
This test that you have given me is unbearable…
Help me please…Correct my intentions and put my heart and mind at ease…
That’s all I am asking from you….

At the highest level of patience,
Make me tawakkal and redha,
Lead me to your path, ya Allah…
Make me humble…

I don’t want to be envious of any worldly thing,
I don’t want to be in the centre of attraction again…
Lead me to your paradise, guide me and tell me that I am doing the right things…
Tell me that it is right to keep this love,
For you Ya Rabbi, and for the man I love…

As he comes to take my hand from my parents,
I promise that I will be the best that I can,
This time in a good way…
A wife, a daughter, a mother and a child….
Your servant, serving you until the end of life…

Like finally, you placed me between love and compassion…
Believing in your Qada’ dan Qadar,
For that, I am always thankful…
Alhamdullilah….


Yours, 
Idah Noraidah..
