This is my Life

This is something that really ticked me off recently.

A friend of my husband's was having a conversation about where we were going on the weekend and why we werent available,so we were going to my grannys 40 days, now knowing that my granny is not muslim he said to my husband' its advisable to stay away from any prayers and you guys can go for lunch as to not be disrepectable.

Firstly this guy does not know my family or my granny and what takes place at this 40 days lunch.What gives him the right to judge me or my family and comment how i live my life and where i go??If you dont know what happends in peoples live sand you are not there to witness aything mind your own fuken business.Some people will argue and say he has a right as a muslim to advise you  but really some people dont look at their own wives and their own families then want to add their two cents.

Growing up i was always strong and stubborn about who i was and what my beliefs were, I never worried about what people thought of what i did and where i went and what was the correct way of doing.They talked, they judged , they got over it!I lived my life my way not anybody else's.I grew up multi-racial , multi -cultural.I accepted people for who they were and what they did in their own was their business.At the end of the day i know who i am, where i want to be, i know what goes on between me and my Allah.I  love my life and wont change anything about me and my life.

For arguments sake!My grannys 40 days was done the muslim way with lunch but does he know this no!My granny is my other mother that i stayed with half my life from teh day i was born when my mum n dad had to go to work,does anybody care about that when they judge  you.I didnt judge this guy when he married a tamil girl, her family and mine is not the same.

Someone should have told him:

Abu Hurairah (R.A) reported that the Messenger of ALLAH (Peace and blessings be upon him) said:

"Part of someone being a good Muslim is leaving alone that which does not concern him." [TIRMIDHI]

I find that South Africans in general LOVE to tell each other how they should be living and what they should be doing... without looking at their own shortcomings and what's lacking in their own lives.
