YOU KNOW YOUR ISLAM IS IN TROUBLE WHEN…

• The last thing you learnt about Islam, the Quran, or Jihad was from CNN.

• All your conversations with your friends have to do with guys/girls, movies, or movie stars.

• You spend more nights at the club during Ramadan than at a Masjid.

• You can't remember the last time you asked someone a question about something You didn't understand in Islam.

·        You find time to watch three movies a week but find yourself too busy to pray Salah regularly.

• That Quran translation you were given last 'Eid is still sitting on the top shelf of your bookrack.

• The 'inner voice' you hear when you are in complete silence sounds surprisingly similar to the latest hip-hop song you heard.

• You don't know any people who you can say "As-salaamu Alaykum" to without feeling embarrassed.

• The feeling that God is watching you in all that you do is never more than a passing thought.

• Your clothes and hair smell of cigarettes on even though you don't smoke.

• Knowing something is right or wrong and feeling guilty about it does not effect whether you actually do it or not.

• You gave up hope of ever entering Paradise because you don't feel you deserve it, saying to yourself "after all that I have done'. Even though Allah says:-                                                                                         
  "O 'Ibâdî (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allâh, verily Allâh forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (39:53)

• When you want something in your life you fantasize about it and say "I wish!".

• The happiest day of your life so far was on Christmas day, Valentines day, on a birthday or at a party. 

• You are loneliest when you are sad or when something bad has happened to you. You ask your self "where did all my friends go?".

• You do not even think of the Prophet (saw) once in a day.

• When you hear of Muslims dying somewhere in the world, you consider it part of 'politics' which you have nothing to do with.

• Your 'best friend' is a person of the opposite gender who is not your husband or wife.

• You have no motivation to change things in your life.

• When your faults are pointed out to you, you reply "This is who I am!".

• You are actually flattered when people on the street stare or ask you out.

• You friends never object to any of your bad habits or behaviours and vice versa.

• You don't care whether you go to heaven or hell since no one can really be "sure about these things".

• To you, Islam is just another 'organized institutionalised religion'.

• You generally feel crappy and often find yourself telling people that.

• You want to travel around the world someday but Makkah is not one of you planned stops.

• Your parents hate you and have said so to you.

• You read the horoscopes yet have never performed Salat-ul-Istikharah.

• You have never felt like falling down on your face and crying to Allah.

• You look down upon people who are more practicing than yourself as 'just mullahs and molvis'.
