Back to Score 1

Salamun Alaik..

Sometimes we feel like we have everything that we need. We know what is best for us. We see things as the way we want them to be. But, when the time comes, our knowledge is tested. We stumbled, we are in pain again..We are back to score 1.
Sometimes we are at our best. We do things as how they should be done. We avoid mistakes. We improved. But when the time comes, we forget. We are on our knees. We are back to score 1.
Sometimes we feel like we are at the upper hand. We then assume we are good enough. We believe that we are entitled to get what we want. We feel at ease. But when the time comes, we lost. We are blind to see the truth as we did when we were in pain. We are back to score 1.
To Allah we seek forgiveness, as we are humble servants who make mistakes again and again.
To Allah we repent, making promises that we know we should try our best to keep.
But we are human that full with sin and always off our feet. We will always back to score 1.
"Ya Allah, give me a little strength so I can make my way up again when I am back to score 1. Give me the strength not to give up, not now not ever. Take me when my time is up. But give me chance to be a better Muslimah. One day, InsyaAllah..I want to receive my scoring book with my right hand"

You don't own anything, Allah Does

Salamun Alaik

Today I as woke up, I wanted to perform my Solat Subuh but suddenly I realize...(Oh noooo....red light!..huhu...you-know-the-every-month-circle-..T.T)..I was a bit sad because I left a few juz of Al-Quran which I intended to finish. But suddenly, a tiny little voice in my brain speaks to me: "Subhanallah, Allah wants to show to you, no matter how good your plan is, even if its something related to ibadah - when Allah doesn't allow it to happen today, it simply wont happen!"
...
So this has made me reflect on myself...yes..I don't own anything in this world, because everything belongs to Allah Almighty..I can't claim anything in this world as mine..no we can't say "Ini hak aku", "Aku yang beli benda ni" "Semua ni atas usaha aku" "Dia aku punya"...(and the examples continues...huhu...I fall in this claiming activities as well...I am just a humble servant..^^,)
...
Everything in this world belongs to Allah. Nothing will happen without HIS knowledge and concerns. HE is the one who will decide if we can borrow anything from HIM...(from Allah we came, to HIM we return...basic concept isn' it??but takes times and maturity to understands it..*_*)..Like my story earlier, even though I am so close to khatam, but if it is not the time yet, it won't happen..I have to wait, and the time will come and perhaps I can read better or maybe Allah wants me to khatam on a specific day...(hey...Be Positive to Allah..^^,)
...
So whenever you feel something is just an inch away from your reach, but you still can't own it, always remember maybe it is not meant for YOU yet..maybe the timing is wrong, maybe you are not patient enough, maybe you are not ready YET...Allah knows better...^_^v
The more you have knowledge on something, the more likely for you to argue but that is where your knowledge is being tested by Allah..whether you have comprehended the knowledge or just superficial understanding...(hukhukhuk...right on my face....T.T)..We are all the students of Allah..we make mistakes, we admit, and we repent...InsyaAllah...#ChillaxAllahKanAda

*Don't be sad* *Control your circle* *Reflect on your daily life*

Till we meet again in the next entry!
...
There is no better way to learn than experiencing it yourself and try to look at everything with different approach. You will find the way...*wink

Love is Beautiful

Salamun Alaik

"Dan di antara tanda-tanda (kebesaran)-Nya ialah Dia menciptakan pasangan-pasangan untukmu dari jenismu sendiri, agar kamu cenderung dan merasa tenteram kepadanya, dan Dia menjadikan diantaramu rasa kasih dan sayang. Sungguh, pada yang demikian itu benar-benar terdapat tanda-tanda (kebesaran Allah) bagi kaum yang berpikir"

~Surah Ar-Rum:21~

To the ladies and gents out there, have you ever feel the vibration of love?triggered by the unknown source and the last thing we know, we can't describe our own feelings?
Let's us recall if there is any of these moments had ring a bell in our life..(huhu...this is exciting...^^,)
...
Have you ever feel like the moment your eyes meet someone's eyes, it feels like an electric vibration enters your heart?..(haha..ok electric vibration is a bit metaphor here...:-p)..Or have you feel like at ease when you talk to this particular someone?like the time has stopped, everything come back to pieces and suddenly the air is clean!you feel a huge relief...
...
However the feeling is not to some-random-anyone-you-met BUT only for that particular-one-human-being..(^_^v)..Well, my dear friends...that is what we call Love..
Love is not something that is absurd but it is another gift from Allah..the feeling of  kasih dan sayang as mentioned in the Al-Quran is one of the signs to Allah the Greatest!..(Ar-Rum:21)
...
Nevertheless, there are rules that come with it. A huge sense of responsibility to those who really digest the true meaning of love. Love is not about lust or physical attraction but its the togetherness of two hearts. A pledge made by two hearts to work hand-in-hand in finding Allah...(love is a true beauty if we really understand it...huhu..in which i had failed to do so once upon a time..but hey! I am still learning here..I am still green..^^,) 
However, there is not greater love than the love from Allah the Creator..:-)..HE made us the way we are, HE loves us when nobody wants us, HE protects us when nobody cares..So ladies and gents, let us seek the love from Allah and be a loyal companion to HIM and HE will show us to our human companion..InsyaAllah..
So why worry much if right now you still have not found your Miss Right or Mr Right?the promises are clear and absolute!..be patient and #ChillaxAllahKanAda...
Prepare ourselves for the good things that will come..and pray that we will meet someone that will lead us to Jannah..InsyaAllah

Redha

Salamun Alaik..

Hi friends!!...here, let us talk about 'redha' - a concept of trusting the Qada' and Qadar in Islam..So how is this 'redha' concept works??Many have question this...(including me, myself...huhu)..We often see that many people said "Aku redha dengan semua ni", "Nak buat macam mana, redha je lah", (and the list continues....^^, I am such a lazy writer..haha) but if they really understand the concept of redha, why are they still be sad? Like the old English saying -crying over the spilled milk- really?so why is this happen?
Let me share my humble opinion on this..(I am still learning to appreciate the beauty of Islam..InsyaAllah..^_^)
People are sad because they do not understand the concept of 'redha' with their heart and soul. They take the concept of 'redha' by its literal meaning only but not the soul of it. 
Redha refers to our response toward something that make us sad. For instance, our dearest family has died in car accident..(May Allah protects us..)..so as a true believer of Islam, we should not cried our heart out (not to say that we cannot be sad but do not let the sadness overwhelm us..) instead we have to believe that Allah has a better plan for us. And it is destined to happen. Everything that happens has its reason and Allah will replace it with something that is better and much fulfilling. That is Allah's promise!!..
In 'Rukun Iman' number 6 we have to believe in Qada' and Qadar from Allah. It means we have to take whatever that Allah has planned for us with an open heart - no matter if it makes us sad - because always remember that the gift from Allah comes in two ways - in happiness and in sadness -
But if we allow our emotion run over us, we can never see the precious gift behind the sadness..(the most valuable gift cannot be obtained without a bit of effort doesn't it?)..
So whenever that we are tested, always be patient and apply the concept of 'redha' in its rightful place. InsyaAllah, You will find the answer of what you are looking for because Allah is a True Lover. Allah loves His servant so much until He won't let us be sad for long..(haaa.....such a beauty isn't it...no boyfriend can do this...huhu..:-p)
So, to all my friends out there....let us apply the concept of 'redha' throughout our life..

Stay humble, be patient and redha for everything that happens to us!

- Dan mereka berkata, "Segala puji bagi Allah yang telah menghilangkan kesedihan dari kami.Sungguh, Tuhan kami benar-benar Maha Pengampun, Maha Mensyukuri yang dengan kurnia-Nya menempatkan kami dalam tempat yang kekal (surga); di dalamnya kami tidak merasa lelah dan tidak pula merasa lesu." -

- Surah Fatir : 34,35 -

Sibukkan Diri Kita Dengan Mengingati Mati

entry versi bahasa melayu...

Salamun Alaik

Salam Jumaat kawan2...^^..kali ini entry saya dalam bahasa melayu..(tukar mood sikit.hehe..)..

Orang bijak pandai pernah mengatakan (maaf saya lupa source nya..T_T)..
"Dengan mengingati mati, hidup kita akan menjadi lebih tenang"

Selama umur yang saya ingat, saya seperti masyarakat kat luar sana yang takut nak fikir pasal mati..(huhu...semua takut kena soal dalam kubur..kan?kan?kan?...)
Jadi macam mana 'mereka' boleh cakap yang bila kita ingat mati, hidup kita jadi tenang..(@..@  sistem akal yang cetek ni mula reject2..huk..) Tapi cuba kita tengok kenapa kita takut bila fikir soal mati.
Mesti ramai yang cakap "takut azab kubur" "takut kena soal" "takut..takut..takut"...huu...saya pun cam tu gak!
Jadi, jom kita tukar cara kita lihat kematian!
Bila kita ingat mati kita tak ada masa nak kecik hati dengan orang, tak ada masa nak gaduh2, tak ada masa nak berlengah2 dalam solat, tak ada masa nak bercinta2 yang tak tentu hala, tak ada masa nak BUANG MASA!!
Semua sebab kita sibuk nak siapkan diri menghadapi mati. Sebab kita sedar yang maut boleh menjemput bila2 masa sahaja..(mungkin jugak lepas saya post entry ni Allah nak ambil nyawa saya untuk menghadap-Nya..huhu..semoga entry ni menjadi bekal ke akhirat nanti..^^,)..
Jadi bila fikir soal mati tu yang sangat dekat, kita akan sibuk dengan sentiasa mencari pahala dalam setiap amal kita..INGAT..dengan berniat baik sahaja dah boleh dapat pahala..(senang kan!...hehe...)

Jadi mari kita audit diri kita dalam setiap perbuatan kita...

Jangan bersedih dan Jangan buang masa!!

Once a Fighter, Always a Fighter

Salamun Alaik..

Hi all...^_^...hope you guys are doing great today!!...
"Once a Fighter, Always a Fighter"..a strong phrase isn't it?..yeah..I think so too..well, I came out with this phrase when I once felt totally down..like there's nothing left for me..(surely a sad period back then..)
I have nobody to talk..(since I don't like to share my sadness to people)..So I was trap in the dark and low episode of my life..where light seems to be far beyond my reach.
But, the moment I wanted to give up, Allah sent His help to me...(Yes He really did!!)..
Its not like a help as in help~..(huhu..I don't know if you can read my tone..) but its more like a hint for me not to give up because His promise is absolute.
So what I did was, I reflect myself LITERALLY..and I am still doing it now. I look at every inch of myself..(sometimes I do this in front of the mirror...^^,) just to affirm myself that Allah  has given me so many 'gifts'..
And with that I shall be thankful.
I also look at the people around me - my family, friends, cousins and those who have made significant entrance to my life no matter good or bad one..And I realized that they have made my life so colourful and beautiful.

And with that I shall be thankful.
Yes, I admit there were series of hurtful events but hey!...Once a Fighter, Always a Fighter!!!
So let's fight and be alive...
Allah is near to those people who want to be thankful for everything that they have or had in life.
Allah the most Merciful



Be thankful, have faith, stay humble and  #ChillaxAllahKanAda ^_^
