Bismillah ar Rahmaan ar Raheem,
As salaam alaikum wa rahmaatuulahhi wa baraakaatuu,
It is funny when you are flying how a 1.5 hour delay can cost you 24 hours… The time in India is great, and it is worth the 51 hours it took to get home, but it is not a trip that you can make often, and we will see how long before I recover…
Bismillah ar Rahmaan ar Raheem,
As salaam alaikum wa rahmaatuulahhi wa baraakaatuu,
Well, this blog is at the end of the road for the time being. Inshaa Allah, I will be leaving to India and I am not sure when I will be able to post again. I am assuming that I will be able to post soon, but I don’t know how much Hyderabad has changed since my last visit. If everyone is driving a car, and has a computer in their house, then I am going to have to make a friend with a computer. If there are Internet cafes still, then it is on. I will be blogging my experiences, inshaa Allah from another sub-blog Hitting Hyderabad.
I was thinking about casting an absentee ballot, but other then the presidential nominations I don’t know what else is on the ballot and it is too late now to take positions. Had I still been in Milwaukee I would have wrote Musa Maguire for president like I mentioned on the Muslim Matters blog… none of these guys are worth a vote, they will all kill Muslims and they wont get a beyah from me.
I have analyzed the race so far and will continue to analyze because we should be aware. That is the name of the game, awareness and dawah. We as Muslims need to get off our asses, take time to understand issues and then tell the people. Just showing up once a year or every few months to cast a vote doesn’t do anything. Voting is the very least that you can do.
Ya Allah protect me and my family on my journey, and bless the Muslims, and guide the rest… Ameen!
