What occurred is the BEST of what ever that was going to occur


A couple of days ago I've noticed a twitter conversion about that nostalgic feeling when you hear an old track or see a show that you used to love (أموووت في"الحصن"!!لوول  (

Conversion took a, what felt quite awkward to me; "sad" route that, such nostalgia hints the feeling of getting old and that good memories "are history" ... i thought  … "O_o??"

1-Long ago i heard this quote over the interwebz, "Don't be sad it’s over, be happy it happened!" ... it’s beautiful and kinda relives one's inner conscious from the mentioned "negative nostalgia" and inverts it into a nice "+ve" feeling, and I like that!

2-Not just that, I also thought -as a Muslim!- is that "الخير في ما يختاره الله" loosely translating that (with my far-from-academic-spoken-Arabic-slang into my purely-technical-non-acadamic-again-enlg1sh) to "Goodness is in Allah's Choice". Basically, what ever happened to you, either you perceive that as good or bad yourself, it was THE best option for you, whether you see the point of that or not now. Which is even more beautiful! Think about it, who’s got the “holistic” view? Domino effect, anybody?

3-And also as a muslim, I always wondered how Allah (SWT) describes the life after death sometimes in the "past tense". Mr.Tariq Suwedan made an awesome explanation is that if Allah (SWT) created everything, hence Allah (SWT) also created the concept of "time"! By induction this also answers the quite simple question of if Allah (SWT) created everything, then who created Allah (SWT)? well Allah (SWT) created the concept of that everything "must be created" or needs a starting point. So both concepts (time and creation) logically do not apply to the creator! Note that am no sheikh or religious scholar so this is my own thoughts here and i might be waay off. But the point is.....

4-Since Whatever Allah (SWT) destined to you is always the best (point 2), and what you actually liked, "happened" (point 1) and with the logical induction (in point 3). At any point of the future or the past anything turns out to be the best option! Hence, no regrets what so ever (the past) and no worries what so ever (the future).

But nnnoooou! Make no mistake! This doesn't mean that life is all rosy, no difficulties WILL occur or perhaps we don’t make bad decisions and must learn from them (past)! On the +ve side this also gives this massive "hope". but again this new found energy must be funneled into "better planning" (future).

So yeah we must "believe" but we also must be "practical". Lose either ones and it’s a recipe for going ...i don't know backwards or downwards or even worse, a convoluted mix of both :p

5-There is a saying in Arabic (which I don’t know its source, but am quite fond of!) "ما كان ليكون إلا ما كان" which again means (with my loose Arabic and English) "Nothing would have happened BUT what actually happened" so nothing else better or worse would've happened. (well maybe it would’ve in a parallel universe or an other dimension but am no quantum physicist :p or maybe this parallel thingy is just a BAZINGA! ). With the conclusion in point 4, you can morph that into the more beautiful "ما كان ،أفضل ما كان سيكون" or "What occurred is the best of what ever that was going to occur". now read that again and think.....

Finally, am just putting down what ever I had buzzing in mind about the subject, I like what happened, love to revisit it every now and then, and can’t fricken wait for whats to come ….
