Now there is no harm in celebrating the birthday of our beloved prophet Mohammad (SAWW), but i believe that doing only this is not enough. We should also pay attention to what he said and act upon it (at least try to). May Allah enable us to follow our beloved prophet's (SAWW) teachings as well. It would surely make this worldly life better and definitely prepare us fully for the life hereafter.

Eid e Milad un Nabi 2009
Today was 12 Rabi ul Awwal, 1430 hijri. The birthday of our beloved prophet Mohammad (SAWW). It is the same day he passed away too. I have not seen it, but heard it that once there was a time when this day was celebrated in grief since our prophet Mohammad (SAWW) had passed away on this day. Then the times changed and people started celebrating it as a happy day since a heavenly light touched this universe an this day and our prophet Mohammad (SAWW) was born. I sure like the current times when we joyfully celebrate this day as Hazrat Mohammad's (SAWW) birthday. I hope we and our future generations keep on celebrating this day as "Eid e Milad un Nabi" for all the times to come.

my Flickr Kahani
New things keep happening in one's life as well as net life. The newest in my net life is the display of scenes captured in my camera on Flickr. I had always been interested in taking pictures but the camera at hand never used to be as faithful as i wanted it to be. Some times the megapixels wouldn't be up to the mark. Other times the battery would run out before i could blink my eyes. So it was pretty annoying. But now equipped with a camera with good specifications and long battery power i am slowly unleashing the 'photographer' in me. I don't know if i am taking 'good' pictures or 'bad' ones, but i am just taking pictures. I am really loving it (even thought of taking it up as a profession but then changed my mind). I recommend it to you all to give it a try some time. :-)
PS: My absence from Blogger was not because of Flickr. ;-) hehe

Assumptions
Are assumptions good or bad? What kind of assumptions are good and which are bad? Maybe assumptions about events is good and about people, their behaviors and characteristics is bad. I for one do not like things to be assumed about me. Like i do not want people to think i nail-bite because i am in a continuous tension (though some of the times i sure am). Or i do not want people to think i am confident because i have been abroad.
I think i myself am guilty of assuming stuff about others. But i am always ready to hear their version and replace mine with theirs instantly in my mind. I give at least that to myself. STill whatever be, i feel that we (including myself) should not make assumptions about people's behaviors. It is far better to ask them directly that what is bothering them than to "assume" on your own.
Assumptions may or may not turn out to be true. If true, those would be a benefit. But if false, then those can be harmful as well. I am trying not to assume too much about anything, be it people, work or future events. I am trying to remain calm while life treats me with a variety of delicacies and serves up lovely surprises at each turn of my life. :-)
