on golf balls

this is a good one, from a friend of mine.

The parable of the golf ball.

Once you hit the golf ball, it lands somewhere.

If you're an amateur like me, it lands far from the hole, in the rough. in malay we call that 'ke laut' (to the sea).




Or if you're good it may land closer.


Or if you're Tiger Woods it may land just a leeeeeetle bit off the hole.


Either you land in the rough, on the fairway or on the tee, it doesn't matter. The ball's still not in the hole.

Allah says,

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا ادْخُلُوا فِي السِّلْمِ كَافَّةً وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ إِنَّهُ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُبِينٌ

"O you who believe! Enter perfectly in Islâm and follow not the footsteps of Shaitân (Satan). Verily! He is to you a plain enemy." (Al Baqarah: 208)
 
Some people say "i'm already rotten boy. You still have a chance."
 
Some people say "yeah, im a muslim. During eid-ul-fitri and eid-ul-adha."
Some people say "i know i do these things, but at least i pray and fast. Not like THAT GUY, he's even worse."
 
Rough, fairway or tee, doesn't matter. Still not in. If you're still on the outside, find someone to whack you in.
