I just came back from my Med interview..
It was really difficult. They drilled me continuously. They wouldn't let a word out of my mouth without them asking about it.. It was so hard to have every word questioned. And yet a Muslim knows that each word is to be asked about on the Day of Judgement.
I told mama.. if this is how hard it is to be interrogated by two strangers
What is it to be interrogated by the AlMighty?
What is it to be interrogated by Allah SWT - Your Creator? Your Cherisher? Your Sustainer?
What will I do when I stand before Allah with my sins laid bare and the evil of my soul not hidden by my masks? What is it to know that there is no turning back? There is no way to change my evil heart? What is it to stand before my Lord and what do I answer when He asks me - did not I show you the way? did not you know that these things were evil? Did not you care that I heard and saw all?
What will I do when I stand before Allah and I know that nothing is hidden? That my true colours are out there laid bare before the Creator of the heavens and the earth?

So true, sometimes we forget our main purpose in life because we'r so caught up in the world.
It is very hard to be interrogated by strangers and that's nothing compared to the Almighty.
May Allah grant us his mercy.Ameen. -
-
definitely something we should always be thinking about. but we tend to forget. thanks for the reminder.
inshaAllah ur interview went well :) -
-
I'm sorry I just saw these comments - it seems I haven't set the settings to send me an e-mail when I receive them here.
S: Salam! It's true it happens a lot, may Allah guide us. But it's good to have small things remind you of that which matters most - Allah SWT and our meeting with Him!
Constructive Attitude: ya ahla w sahla!
Jazakillah khair for caring - I'm afraid it didnt go so well at all lool omg they were so evil!! Bass yallah il7amdulillah for everything - I've enrolled in another course now w inshaAllah it's what's best. -

i jsut got my waitlist email from Jeff .... life sucks.
-
-
ooh sorry, you would not knwo what Jeff is, I thought you are from the US. I got two friends in Oz for meds tho.
-
-
Lol I'm assuming Jeff is the person (or .. thing) that tells you whether you got into med or not.
You're right waitlist sucks, but it's better than outright rejection, no? -
-
Thanks for dropping by btw :)
"Thank you come again!" -
-
hehe, Jeff stands for jefferson medical college.
jazkaAllah for the welcome. How did the interview result turn out if you dont mind? -

sorry about not replying to the other post yet. I want to give it my full attention so I'm leaving it for later when I can do that.
Thanks for sharing your blog with me. I gotta say I miss the black and white.
I didn't make it for med, and I didn't really deserve it anyway. Halfway through the year I stopped wanting it as much and I started getting doubts and I stopped studying very much (I mean.. barely).
People like that shouldn't become doctors.
Plus I'm totally unco and forgetful < patients lives are in danger!
Optometry for me, it seems -

may Allah swt give you what you want. Well, I have doubts sometimes too such as if I could really deal with working with dead bodies because death etc depresses me. I guess its a phase and so shall it pass ... inshALLAH
Waiting to hear your response on evolution. Just to add, evolution has even happened on Earth since its creation till now. It went through MANY phases and is continuing to do so. :p
w salam -
-
i meant evolution of Earth's structure.

Well you are still the same, still as great in your words, still as believing and you still manage to beat yourself more than people was actual masked evil in their harts.
What I wanna say is, if you think you have that much evil inside you then 3ala al donya elsalam, cause there is a lot of real evil out there. -
