Among the marvels of modern technology is also the ability to track themissed calls which were made by our friends and foes and the likes. Wedo not get a good nights sleep, unless we have returned the calls ofthose who matter. We don't let any call go unanswered as long as weknow that it matters. Don't we?
But how about the calls of "hay-yaa al-as-salaah and hay-yaaal-al falah" made from the neighbourhood house of our Master - theAlmighty Allah? Those calls are made five times a day and many a timesthey all go unanswered.
We do not either respond!!! Nor do we respect these missed calls. Do they matter?
Everybody can tell, if these really matter. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but surely in the Hereafter.
Let us look at ourselves. Can we afford to let these calls of the muezzin be missed, day after day, after day.
Thecall from our Cherisher, Sustainer and the Ultimate Master.
Just thinkabout it.
Next time one hears this call, just ask yourself how good anights sleep can I
have by missing those calls from the house of Allah.
Think about it....the answer may come from the inner heart.
Wassalam
