1. Our Knowledge: Wasted by not taking action with it 2. Our Actions: Wasted by committing them without sincerity. 3. Our Wealth: Wasted by using on things that will not bring us ajr (reward from Allah). We waste our money, our status, our authority, on things which have no benefit in this life or in akhirah (hereafter). 4. Our Hearts: Wasted because they are empty from the love of Allah, and the feeling of longing to go to Him, and a feeling of peace and contentment. In it's place, our hearts are filled with something or someone else. 5. Our Bodies: Wasted because we don't use them in ibadah (worship) and service of Allah. 6. Our Love: Our emotional love is misdirected, not towards Allah, but towards something/someone else. 7. Our Time: Wasted, not used properly, to compensate for that which has passed, by doing what is righteous to make up for past deeds. 8. Our Intellect: Wasted on things that are not beneficial, that are detrimental to society and the individual, not in contemplation or reflection. 9. Our Service: Wasted in service of someone who will not bring us closer to Allah, or benefit in dunyaa. 10. Our Dhikr (Remembrence of Allah): Wasted, because it does not effect us or our hearts.

Quran, the living miracle, a book so pure, so clearThe one who is prompt to recite it is free from all fear.Revealed to our noble Prophet (SAW) by Gibraeel (AS) who took the lead,The blessed angel who encouraged him to start with a simple - 'READ'.
The Quran was sent down by Allah (SWT) as a mercy to all mankind,A book so glorious and powerful, no mortal can ever find.Each verse of the Holy Quran is so filled with rhythm and beauty,A reminder before Judgement for each one to fulfil their duty.
The Quran clearly states what is right from what is wrong,It cleanses our heart of impurity and makes the weak minded strong.It guarantees the pious and righteous a place they so desire,A warning to all hypocrites to escape from Hellfire.
Even if all the oceans were transformed into ink,You would still need more for this very thought to sink,That the Words of Allah(SWT) can never be exhausted,And can never be compared to anything concocted.
In your mind dear reader two options now you bear,To either pick up the Quran or leave it lying there.Now is the time for you to sit down and contemplate,Are you going to struggle to make or break your fate?????
