To Take Care of is..To Teach...

Ever since my parents moved to Qatar and Jeddah, I held the responsibility to take care of my siblings. To my assumption, it was not that tough since I was used to do all the housework and prepare all their daily necessary stuffs. As time passed by, with the piling stack of work at the office, I started to become exhausted by the end of the day. Sometimes I couldn’t get hold of my breath to chase the time..at the end of the day I would only notice that it was already 12.00 midnight where most people would already be dreaming, whereas for me still busy with the chores. Even though some would be amused by my responsibility, I would always think whether I’ve actually fulfill the responsibility given to me or not. Have I actually taught my younger brothers and sisters the value of life? Or have I only been taking care of their daily needs? I came to realize that to take care of our siblings is not as easy as fulfilling their daily needs. But instead to take care of someone is actually being able to implant the good behavior in one’s self. I realized that a guardian is not only one who protects u, feed u but in real it is one who is able to bring u up to become a good person, able to cultivate good morality and most importantly able to teach one to be more close to Allah. Oh Allah, I have not fulfilled the responsibility being given to me. Oh Allah, I am weak, sometimes I forget of these vital things which I should have done. Oh Allah I ask for your help and guidance in teaching my younger ones to be much closer to you..Forgive me oh Allah..
