In retrospect, we (muslims) have a lot in common with Tony Stark a.k.a Iron man. You know how Tony has an arc reactor on (technically, in) his chest to prevent shrapnels in his blood vessels from reaching his heart, else he'd be in *deep sh!t*. No kidding. Also, he has a cool armoured suit :>
Okay so how does any of that relate to being a muslim?
Look at it this way, (not meant to be taken literally, though) as a muslim, we have our imaan (the arc reactor),
and we need it to keep running to prevent us from committing sins or evil doings ( the shrapnel ),
and if it reaches to our heart, well-- *repeat previous quote* it stains.
Every once in a while, we gotta renew our imaan so it doesn't dry out.
The suit? well, Tony uses it to fight the bad guys, shooting missiles and all that *fancy*, and save lives, of course. We use da'wah, and du'a to rescue others. If you are a muslimah (woman), then your hijab (veil) would be your armour.
But it all starts from the inside, the heart, our imaan. Build it half-assed, and you won't go far with it.
So we are heroes after all, huh?
Minus the tight spandex and masks and secret identity.
Even before we were born, we pledged to Allah to become the Khalifah (leaders) of the world.
So if we are to be heroes, we gotta start acting like one.
"with great power, comes great responsibility."

A little dedication to all the muslimah, our heroines.
A woman can save the people around her,A daughter can save her father,A wife can save her husband,A mother can save her child,A woman can save herself,All from the scorching hellfire,O how great you are
And all of those, if she is entitled 'mukmin'.
Wallahu'alam, pardon my minor sidetracking.
From a hero, to a fellow superhero. Start with bismillah,
Hafidz Iddin
