Do you believe in Omens?

Once my friend asked me, ” Do you believe in omens?” I was like, OMENS! What’s that? I heard this word for the first time in my life & don’t even know if such a word exists in a dictionary or not.

He simply gave me a reply: “It’s a sign from Allah about the future happening.”

I wonder why I never heard of this word before, as we often have discussions about our dreams, our sixth sense, myths about certain happenings or situations, people’s thoughts towards life, day-to-day happenings, and religion.

This thought makes me more curious about “What Omen is all about.”

Have you ever noticed that in our talk & discussion, we rarely talked about the signs that Allah shows to us in our daily routine, in other life, or in a word from your parents/boss or from anyone around you? We hardly give importance to such signs or may pass them by just relating them to other things.

If you ask someone, Do you really believe in signs shown by Allah?” everyone say: Yes

But it’s not true & that the Fact! Saying yes & accepting/believing from the heart is just two different things. We don’t believe neither accept them from our hearts, we only follow those signs that clearly indicate what going to happen or just get them by luck. Usually we start thinking & believing on these signs when are totally depressed, hopeless or want to get rid of something or left with no other option.

While having all these discussion with my friend, he recommends that I should read ‘Alchemist’ the book based on omens & may be after reading that I can better get the overview about Omens.

At the time when I am reading the last few line of Alchemist, don’t know why I have the feeling that I should write about what I think about omens or what I get the meaning of Omens after reading Alchemist. I have never write any article or blog or any stuff like this before, even this was my first English novel, I knew my vocabulary is just of few words, I felt like that Alchemist pushed me to write this all and now I am writing…

I recommend everyone to read this book just once regardless what his/her English level is or who you are or what you do, it not only refreshes your mind but also give your thinking a new way a new color a new look. In my view omen is not just four alphabet words or what definition says about, its lot more than that! Have a vast meaning with lots of thoughtful aspect & vast explanations.

Through Omen Allah shows us, That he exists, That whatever going around is controlled by Him only, no one else, What happen in past &what going to happen in future is just in His hands.  Simply Allah send us alert about future good or bad happening & make us believe that He always care for us and always there whenever we need Him.

Omen sometime realizes us that why creator send us on His land, what our ultimate destiny,
What we way we should follow & if we start believing on them and mark them, understand them, they take us to the land of our dreams, our plans, our target.

But it’s not as simple as its seems to be, omen took the path that we never thought of or we never want follow as that path have a long way, unknown routes, strange people, fill with hurdles, or may b it cost one’s life. These are the factors that always betray us from our goal or destiny or omens.

Omens need commitment to oneself that yes I will do this & I will stick on this path regardless of what happens and where it ends, in return it gives you courage, hope & rewards for your whole lifetime.

Path of Omen realizes us the price & the value of what we have & what we possess in past what we have now and whatever we have is just the reward of our good deeds and our prayers that once we did or wish to have these all.

It’s our firm believe that Allah love his creation, always listen to them n& never put them in situation that they are unable to face. Then why we often blame Allah that why he chooses us for this & that, why he has not given us the wealth the luck the ones we love. Well it just human nature that he never be happy and satisfy on what he have

So what Allah do when we blame him, pray to him, ask him questions?? “Omen- the simple reply from him” that one can get in an instant, to else very clear to follow, to others a time being solution or to us; just a sign, a thought, certain disasters, in a rain or blowing wind, someone love or in heart.

Want to be the most happiest & successful person of this world- Start realizing that what you are blessed with & what others are not. Say Thanks to Allah as many times as you can & just follow the path of Allah that Allah shows us through His signs & in His book.
