A letter to the drugtakers and dealers

FAO of all Muslim drug dealers and users in Burton

Aslam’ alaikum.
This is the first time I am writing to you. I hope you view my letter as a sincere attempt to rectify the terrible situation our small community is in. I want to open a discussion on the Muslim drug game and pave a way for our community.
You guys all know who I am, who I chill with and what I believe. I want to spread the haq, the truth but you guys are an obstacle in my way, you’re dumb’n the people. You’re a challenge to me. And it’s a challenge I’m dying to take on, and this is my invitation to you towards Islam.
Over the years, I’ve heard the excuses and here are some; ‘I’m not as bad as next man’, ‘I’m only smoking twice a week’, ‘I do dua every night’, ‘I will one day’, ‘I’ve tried before, it’s hard’. Let me remind you, time doesn’t stop, before you know it you’ll be in a box, six foot under, getting questioned whilst you’re off your head….anymore excuses?
Can’t you see you guys are living a bizarre life? We were an Ummah who used rule most of the known world. We used to speak the truth and spread justice. An Ummah, people respected. An Ummah who applied Islam in all aspects of life. We have lost all of this. Let me tell you some home truth…
People look at us and laugh. Why? Why have we let ourselves become so low? We can sit in our comfortable houses and big cars but it doesn’t hide the fact that we are unhappy. You think that you’re making dollar. Let me tell you something about your money. It’s worth less than you. A person who cleans toilets for his money is a thousand times nobler than you.
You say that it relieves you. Let me tell you something about stress; when a ten year old boy is beaten to death. That’s stress. You don’t have death on your doorstep, no famine nor disease….what stress have you really got?
As you read my letter, look around you, I suspect none of your family members are around you. Isn’t that sad? Trust me they know what you do. They smell it on you; they see it in your eyes. They hear about it on the street.
The Prophet (saw) bled for us, and was insulted for us. What do you do? Insult him further by praying once a week and celebrating Eid - pissed? The noble companions were martyred, ensuring we receive the message pure and protected. What do you do; just throw it away…
Shaytan challenged the All-mighty, Allah. Saying, ‘O Allah let me take your people from the straight path’. Shaytan’s got his way; he’s groomed his little army well, spreading mischief and mayhem. An army which will die and be placed in shaytan’s den. A place full of black fire, tearing your skin. That is where this little army will end.
By now whilst you’re reading my words, there may be a thought telling you to stop. Listen to it, make the move. How long can you run away from the truth? If you’re unsure then try this test. Go to your sister, mother, father or brother and ask them to smoke the dope. If you can, then you believe its right. If you can’t then you know you are deluded and I’m right.
I hear you say I’ve heard this all before. Are you really that hard hearted that you’ll ignore this message once more? What will make you people awake, maybe it’s your sister’s rape, your mothers screams, or your father’s gun shot wounds? If you’re waiting for a shock to make you wake up – let me tell you this happens to our brothers and sisters everyday in a place called Philaste’en. Come on lads, what more do I have to say – you’re lives are pathetic – we all don’t want this anymore.
I invite you into a life that has purpose and meaning. That elevates you. Takes away paranoia. A life where your friends are stronger than blood brothers. Where your parents are proud of you, and your brothers and sisters look up to you. Where you pass people in the street and they say ‘salaam’. Where you know you will insha’Allah meet Allah with a smile.
Insha’allah I will pray that you change towards the straight path. Where real men stand. From one brother to another I request you ask for help and forgiveness from Allah (swt), read this dua, repent sincerely, think about my words and make the change, us brothers are here for you…
O Allah I seek forgiveness from those things which I have repeated after repenting for it and I repent to You for those things which was intended for You but while doing it the intention was changed which was not for You. And I seek Your forgiveness from those bounties which was bestowed for Your obedience but I used for Your disobedience and I repent for it that there is no one other than Allah, He is the living, the self existing, Knower of the unseen and present everywhere, the Beneficent the Merciful. I seek forgiveness for all those sins which I have committed and of all those sins which I have initiated. O Allah give me perfect intelligence and enlighten my wishes and intellect, clean heart, abundance knowledge, clear ethics, all these things which are beneficial to me and not harmful to me. O the one who is most Beneficial by Your mercy,I seek refuge in Allah there is no lord except Him, the living, the self existent to Him do I repent
I seek forgiveness from Allah who is without a heir and is alive, and the supporter of the universe and I turn to Him in repentance.

Ameen

Waslaam,

Bigz
