You are a diamond…

You my friend are a diamond.

A beautiful, marvelous, awe-producing diamond. One of the rare ones that my humble eyes have had the chance to see.

You are not any diamond.…you are THE Diamond.

You shouldn’t feel privileged for it, cuz it is not your choice to be it, you are just born as such. It was an amanah that He gave to you to shape and make it priceless. It is an obligation and responsibility, not a privilege. You, same as the diamond we materialistically know of, are valuable only if carved and cut in the finest way with a high level of precision. It is up to you where to carve it, on the hands of whom do you bequeath it. The price it will get will depend on the way it is cut, and that responsibility falls solely on your hands.

You are a diamond.

And I love you for it. I love the beauty you reflect, the awe you expose, the shape you are getting. You are the prism through which I understand your Creator. A window through which I see His master plan. A mirror which reflects all His beautiful names. You are a diamond that makes me feel as one too. Or at least be happy that a diamond like you exists.

You are a diamond.

A diamond that thus far, for as much as I was allowed to see, has had such a great shape and price beyond the numbers I can think of. In the quest of shaping your diamond, you have started in a really good path…yet, the work on it is not over. The better it is carved, the more priceless it becomes. This world provides so many ways for you to be properly or improperly shaped. Make sure you get the best path, for you are of such a value, that you yourself are not aware of. The amanah that you represent is more valuable than all that is on earth, all its beauties and riches.

You are a diamond.

And it is not only the shaping that is your responsibility. For you will be judged on its shape and its use as well. The beauty of the diamond gets even more visible in the hand that holds it. The value of it in the way it is used. Never ever allow for that diamond to be in the hands of those that don’t deserve to hold it. Never ever allow for that diamond to be used in the places it cannot fully function, for the purposes it was not made and carved for. It is up to you to give it a good use, once you have shaped it well.

You are indeed a diamond.…yet, not everything around you is of your material.

When your diamond was born, it was thrown among the mud of the immoral society. You were thrown in such a society that knows not of the true beauty of a diamond like you, because it is mud that they have been used to see and learned to cherish and value. And unfortunately, once thrown in it, you are covered with the same mud that the others around you are covered with as well. To be clean in terms of the filthy society is to be filthy in your own nature i.e. to be mud as all others regardless of the diamond you hide within. It is up to you to be considered filthy in the filthy society, which will ultimately make you clean in your own essence. You never know how many diamonds are hidden in the mud around you, but none has the courage to clean itself of it and shine. You should be the first of those diamonds. The first that will not care if you are not considered moral by the immoral society, because that’s the only way for you to be truly moral. You should be the diamond that will be an example for all other diamonds present in the mud of this filthy society, one that will absorb the rays of the light of truth and reflect them through the clear-cut shape you have, with the wide spectrum of your colors. It is up to you to make those colors work for all and to reach as many things possible.

You are a diamond.

A diamond that once served its function, will be judged for it. Don’t avoid this world you were thrown into, because it is only here that your diamond can be shaped. It is only here that your diamond can serve a cause. It is only here that you can get prepared to return your diamond to its rightful Owner, to the One that created it in the beginning. Use the world to make yourself proud in front of the Beholder of the beauty of your diamond. The better it is carved, the more pleased will his Creator be. The joy of seeing Him pleased is beyond any bounties that His Jannah (Heaven) can afford. Cuz that joy makes even the fire of Jahanam (Hell) be a gentle breeze, a flower garden of Ibraheem alayhisselam.

You are a diamond.

A diamond that shall never seize to be so. One that will stand proud in front of other diamonds because you my friend are not just a diamond, you are a role model diamond, a priceless and quite cherished one. You are my DIAMOND!
