A Lukewarm Muslim

Think of the last time you went to get a nice hot cup of your favorite tea. You got it all made and set down in your comfortable chair already to drink it; when the phone rang.

So there it sit’s on the table, while you go answer the phone; who could it be? Your very best friend and you talk for about thirty minutes. It was a lovely chat, but when you finish, you go back expecting your tea to be hot.

Oh, it is lukewarm, not as good as you would have wished, but you decide to drink it anyway.

As Muslim's, we can end up if we are not careful, like that lukewarm cup of tea and if we are not careful; we can even if we wait long enough, to be ice cold.

Allah doesn’t really appreciate the lukewarm or cold Muslim either, so the next time you have a cup of your nice tea; think about the path you are really on and how to be a better Muslim.

The one, Allah really wishes.
