Reflection 9 – Epilogue

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim


Epilogue – the chapter readers fear,

because it reads – ‘the end is here’.

But with the coming of an epilogue

comes the prologue of another.

This story is just one travelogue

for travels of four travellers

who learn to learn; and think to think

and end the end of an ended chapter.

It might not have been a Gulliver’s travel

but it’s a travel worth a traveller’s travel.

The epilogue marks the end of our pilgrims’ reflections for Dr. Rozina’s class but not the reflections for their life journey. Because the most important lesson they learnt from the class is to be reflective. And they shall do so as they continue their pilgrimage towards getting closer to God. Each day, their epitaphs will become clearer as they walk, as they travel, as they march towards the end of their pilgrimage – to be back where they belong.

“Surely, we belong to Allah; and to Him we shall return.” (Al Baqarah – 156)
