friend (1:06:00 AM): all it does
friend (1:06:02 AM): is build ego
friend (1:06:05 AM): and superficiality
me (1:08:28 AM): yes, indeed it must… but we should assum the best and if so it must be not malicious just unintentional. but then what is human nature? should we deny it? or do these competitions also perfect the voice

friend (1:08:40 AM): i’m tlaking about
me (1:08:42 AM): encourage prefection of the human?

friend (1:08:49 AM): i mean
me (1:08:53 AM): to eman?
me (1:09:09 AM): so is success in this life, s3?

me (1:09:40 AM): i am listening
me (1:09:57 AM): your the first that concurs with me
friend (1:10:25 AM): this qari ocmpetitioins build more ego and superficiality than one can imagine
friend (1:10:25 AM): and
friend (1:10:30 AM): it can easily be denied
friend (1:10:32 AM): because you can hide it
friend (1:10:35 AM): but then
friend (1:10:38 AM): its between you and God
friend (1:11:11 AM): and honestly
friend (1:11:13 AM): if i was in her position
friend (1:11:18 AM): as modest as i would TRY to be about it
friend (1:11:20 AM): my modesty woul dbe
friend (1:11:21 AM): superficial
friend (1:11:25 AM): because between me and God
friend (1:11:30 AM): i’d know i’m da bomb
me (1:12:35 AM): until realization and maturity take over, and you realize the skilll and talent you display has no reflection on the quality of your HEART
me (1:12:38 AM): of your soul
me (1:13:11 AM): but tis takes time
friend (1:13:13 AM): and
me (1:13:15 AM): to realize it
friend (1:13:17 AM): not everyone can do it
friend (1:13:20 AM): these ompetitions
friend (1:13:24 AM): facilitate shaytan
friend (1:13:26 AM): to enter your heart
me (1:14:16 AM): i agreee, but so does everything in this dunya–but do we shy away from it? nay, i say we have an obligation to it
me (1:14:28 AM): like leadership?
me (1:14:39 AM): shall we liken it to leadership?
me (1:15:04 AM): Islamic leadership is a huge burden. Just imaging the day of Judgment… oye… One who is a leader of an org is not only responsible for their own actions but as well as others in the org while they are the leader. On the Day it is one of the largest burden upon people and will probably be the cause of much demise.
friend (1:15:17 AM): but leadership is different
friend (1:15:19 AM): its a responsiblity
friend (1:15:23 AM): being a contender in a qari competiiton
friend (1:15:24 AM): is not.
friend (1:15:26 AM): we dont need em
friend (1:15:30 AM): there are alternatives
me (1:16:05 AM): does it strenghten the eman, and move the listener?
me (1:16:10 AM): some may say so
friend (1:16:14 AM): a competition
friend (1:16:14 AM): no
friend (1:16:17 AM): the recitatoindoes
me (1:18:30 AM): and competition hons the prefection of recitation, and as for prefection, it’s all relivant, is it not?
me (1:18:53 AM): so a gathering of some sort to show the world is needed?
friend (1:18:58 AM): sa that again
me (1:19:21 AM): me (1:18:30 AM): and competition hons the prefection of recitation, and as for prefection, it’s all relivant, is it not?
me (1:18:53 AM): so a gathering of some sort to show the world is needed?
friend (1:19:29 AM): lol
friend (1:19:30 AM): no i mean
friend (1:19:32 AM): wha tod you mean
me (1:19:52 AM): ummm
me (1:19:54 AM): LOOOOLLz
me (1:19:59 AM): ok
me (1:20:02 AM): well
me (1:20:16 AM): competition builds up the perfection
me (1:20:22 AM): it’s a means of gathering
me (1:20:35 AM): and perfect is relivent
me (1:20:43 AM): for only Allah is truely prefect
me (1:20:58 AM): we as tiny humans have no TRUE concept of it
me (1:21:03 AM): sooo
me (1:21:08 AM): we try
me (1:21:21 AM): and perfection is relvant to your means
me (1:21:28 AM): sooo
me (1:21:37 AM): a gathering is need?
me (1:21:39 AM): s3?
friend (1:23:40 AM): hmm
friend (1:23:53 AM): but the way that competitoins are conducted
friend (1:23:57 AM): is what i’m against
friend (1:24:12 AM): it shouldn’t be hyped up, a public display
me (1:24:20 AM): ummm
me (1:24:24 AM): i must concur
me (1:24:47 AM): but perhaps it’s also our human moviation in side that we should change
me (1:25:13 AM): because people are lured into these competitions by awards
me (1:25:19 AM): human nature I suppose
me (1:25:23 AM): we’ll call it
me (1:25:41 AM): and perhaps it should be towards somthing esle
friend (1:26:17 AM): right
me (1:26:21 AM): becasue after such a gathering … without a tropthy or title?
me (1:26:32 AM): can you put it on display?
me (1:26:38 AM): very few
me (1:26:46 AM): can get hyped upon
me (1:26:52 AM): and put on TV
me (1:30:02 AM): are you busy?
friend (1:30:39 AM): i’m juggling
friend (1:30:39 AM): haha
friend (1:30:40 AM): so sorry
friend (1:30:59 AM): but dude
friend (1:31:03 AM): its not about just the physical
friend (1:31:07 AM): awards that you can touch
friend (1:31:09 AM): its also baout
friend (1:31:11 AM): ego
friend (1:31:19 AM): about how people act around you
friend (1:31:22 AM): when they hear you recite
me (1:36:13 AM): yes, indeed
me (1:36:27 AM): but if Allah give you a talent as well
me (1:36:34 AM): He give you the capcity
me (1:36:58 AM): to seek wisedom and realize your talent isn’t a reflexction upon your soul
me (1:37:04 AM): it’s a fitnah
me (1:37:13 AM): as is being handsome
me (1:37:20 AM): or beautiful
me (1:37:25 AM): heehee
friend (1:37:53 AM): hahaha
friend (1:37:53 AM): yes
in the end this touched me the most:
