i got an email from this yahoogroup i’m in and somehow i’m touched by the contents of it. it’s about this Rafiq Endeavour Award, somewhat a commemoration and a tribute to a very young ustaz who met a tragedy sometime this year.

i never knew this person, never even heard of his name before, but he’s quite well-known in the young activists circle, as i found out. and his death was a shock to most. i didn’t know why, but apparently, he was an active young man, in touch with the youths, i guess all the good characteristics are in him. and as you can see from this vid clip, he stumbled on the spiritual quest sometime in his teens. and found his destiny. literally.

but all i can deduce from the video clip, for someone who deserved to be commemorated, it must means he did alot. he achieved so much at a young age, he’s only a year older than me!! when there are others our age were thinking of cars and races, beauty and fashion, or boyfriends and girlfriends issues, there is this guy who strived and filled his time for the greater good. i’m just so impressed. and amazed at this guy. for someone who didn’t know his personal life, i’m sure he is a well respected person, to be remembered in such a way. then and now.

have a peek,

i guess it’s time to reflect on ourselves?
