"Walk with purpose towards a life of truth, purpose and flow"
CM Coach #1: “Hmm..we’ve got a new client. They complain of confusion, pain and not being able to see clearly.”
CM Coach #2: “Perfect!”
CM Coach # 1: “Perfect? Should we be happy at someone’s pain?”
CM Coach #2: “No silly. I said that because we’ve got just the solution.”
CM Coach #1: “And that is?”
CM Coach #2: “la ilaha illalah muhammad ar-rasulAllah.”
CM Coach #1: “Again? Are you sure?”
CM Coach #2: “Ayn-ul-yaqeen level sure. La ilaha illalah is literally the solution.”
CM Coach #1: “Alright, what was the first part?”
CM Coach #2: “First, we’ll need to declutter the love of any other false god.”
CM Coach #1: “Then what?“
CM Coach #2: “Then we’ll install tawheed.“
CM Coach #1: “Anything else?“
CM Coach #2: “Oh yes. Tawheed is just the beginning.“
CM Coach #1: “Alright, what comes next?“
CM Coach #2: “When tawheed is installed correctly, the heart will overflow with the love of Allah.“
CM Coach #1: “Nice. And then?”
CM Coach #2: “Then they’ll feel deep shukr and say: “Our Lord! You have not created ˹all of˺ this without purpose. Glory be to You! Protect us from the torment of the Fire.” They’ll repent, leave all sins and beg for guidance.“
CM Coach #1: “Then what?“
CM Coach #2: “Then they will worship out of love. And fear and hope. And then they’ll have an aha moment, begin to see clearly and take aligned action.“
CM Coach #1: “Neat. What comes next?“
CM Coach #2: “Then they will begin to understand their purpose. We pray they will pass with at least a C.“
CM Coach #1: “A C? Shouldn’t we hope they pass with an A?“
CM Coach #2: “Of course. An A would be becoming a friend of Allah mentioned in Surah al-Fussilat(30-36). To start with, they need to work on the criteria in surah al-Asr to pass and be counted amongst the successful.“
CM Coach #1: “Oh right. I remember this part. You mentioned this before … something about truth, purpose and flow?“
CM Coach #2: “Yep, that’s it. Truth is believing in and living by the truth, purpose is counseling one another to follow the truth, and flow represents counseling one another to be patient in adversity. You’ve been taking notes, right?“
CM Coach #1: “This time, yes alhamdulillah.”
CM Coach #2: “Alright, please note down the summary of the entire process: walk with purpose towards a life of truth, purpose and flow. Do you imagine any pain and confusion will remain after this?”
CM Coach #1: “No. I trust the process now. I see it work every time.”
