Old Friends..

“Soul mates recognise one another's vibration. They instantly fuse to the life force that surrounds their core of being.” ― Truth Devour,

Have you ever experienced a situation where you felt so comfortable with someone whom you've just met? It's like you've known this person forever. It's kinda cool and eerie at the same time.  

I have experienced it many times and each time it happens, my brain will be playing the 'Twilight Zone' song in my head. It's the unexplainable warm feeling that you feel and how you instantly gravitate towards the person that is just simply amazing. Some people call it reunion of 'kindred spirit'.

There are also people who will just simply hate you on sight and I've experienced that too. Ooooh...yeah.... As much as I hate to admit it, the feeling I felt was mutual.

Would you believe me if I told that you that in Islam, this deja vu feeling that we experience is actually real?

One day, the Wise Owl unraveled the mystery to me. He said that some souls met at the time when they were created by God. This was before the soul is blown into their respective body, in the mothers' womb.

Abu Hurairah reported Allah’s Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) as saying, “Souls are troops collected together and those who familiarized with each other (in the heaven from where these come) would have affinity, with one another (in the world) and those amongst them who opposed each other (in the Heaven) would also be divergent (in the world).” (Muslim)

Aahhh...now everything make supernatural sense to me! Like real life situation, there are bound to be people who you can get along with and some that you just can't.

Being an eccentric who lacks social skills, I would get very excited whenever I meet these kindred sisters. I'm glad to know that I'm not alone and there others just as eccentric as me.

If you think about it, we are not meeting a  new friend but we are actually meeting a long lost old friend.....SubhanAllah..
