How do I tell you I have failed in my duties to the Creator. Yes, failed. You don't hear that phrase often from me but now its heartfelt now. I've failed you and more importantly I've failed Allah and the Prophet's (pbuh) message.
It was a simple message, of La illaha ila lah (there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah). A few syllables yet a heavy testament. I didn't pass on the message, the jewel of Al-Islam. All those many years I have known you. The good times , the bad and the downright ugly. Through all the times , you were there, as sturdy as a rock.
I'm sorry for not repaying you in full and even greater than that. How can I claim I love you as a friend if I didnt convey La illaha ila lah to you. I can't. Again, I realise I have failed.
Yesterday was that and tomorrow brings a new day, dear friend. And as I live La illaha ila lah with more vigour, I'm sure I will try harder to convey it to you too.
This is how I feel. I want to be that musk seller the Prophet spoke of. Inshallah, I'll try my best.
Salam
