Ramaddhan O Ramadhan

Assalamualaikum, Semoga kita semua berlumba-lumba mengejar tawaran hebat Ramadhan ini. Berusaha bersungguh-sungguh, jauh lebih dari usaha merebut tawaran hebat diskaun 70% yang ditawarkan oleh Jakel. Why not? Well, during this month, all our effort are doubled in the reward. How gracious Allah SWT, Allah allocates one month in a year for us to renew and refresh our ' hubul ilallah ' (our love for Allah) with the so many rewards promised. In order to make it happen, all the devils were chained. And now it only leave ourselves to fight with our own self, the nafs . "Nak ngaji ke tidak ni? .... Argh ... kejap lagi lah" .... "Nak gi ke tak solat terawih hari ni? Letih la ..... buat kat rumah je lah, boleh je kan ......" "Alahai .... lenguhnya kaki ni berdiri solat terawih. Imam ni tak tak tahu bahasa ke, baca panjang-panjang. Meleret-leret pulak tu. Ingat ni musabaqah ke? ....... Those are some of the fightings that we had to do against our

Assalamualaikum

Assalamualaikum .... It's not a mistake, but yes, it's Assalamualaikum as the title. As-Salam means 'salamah', a good wish to the person whom we addressed the salam for. As-Salam is a word uttered by those in jannah, showing that As-Salam is a beautiful word uttered by beautiful people. Rasulalllah SAW will always try to be the first who utters the Salam for sahabah (sahabah are those who lives and the follower of Muhammad SAW). And if sahabah was the one who uttered it first, Rasulallah SAW will answer it longer. For example: The wish: Salam. The Answer: Salam alaikum The wish: Salam alaikum. The answer: Assalamualaikum warahmatullah The wish: Assalamualaikum warahmatullah The answer: Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh And Allah SWT as the MOST GRACIOUS will always have a reward for every good deeds that we do. And to wish AS-Salam is highly recommended and answering the Salam is considered COMPULSORY (WAJIB). However,

Khusyuk solat.

Assalamualaikum dear readers, Would like to share a piece of knowledge I got from the program 'Tanyalah Ustaz' on TV9 with Ustaz Zamri Mantop. Here it goes. ... For a KHUSYUK in solat, these 4 elements are required: 1. Spiritual 2. Intelektual 3. Emosi 4. Fizikal Spiritual adalah dengan sedaya upaya mencuba untuk meninggalkan urusan dunia ketika solat. Membayangkan bahawa syurga di kanan dengan penuh kenikmatan, neraka di kiri dengan segala azab, manakala di belakang adalah kematian yang sedang mengejar kita. Intelektual apabila kita mencuba sedaya upaya untuk memahami bacaan dalam solat sehingga menjadikan perbuatan solat itu adalah dialog kita dengan Allah SWT. n sedaya upaya mencuba untuk meninggalkan urusan dunia ketika solat. Membayangkan bahawa syurga di kanan dwngan penuh kenikmatan, neraka di kiri dengan segala azab, manakala di belakang adalah kematian yang sedang mengejar kita. Emosi apabila kita masukkan elemen penyeselan, insaf dan kekerdilan t

Till death do us apart

Assalamualaikum. A tazkeerah between Maghrib and Isyak at Surau AlMawaddah. This is a meaning of a hadith by Rasulallah SAW: 1. Solat five times a day 2. Fast during Ramadhan 3. Preserve oneself only for the husband 4. Obey the husband after Allah and Rasul A woman who fulfilled all the above, Rasulallah SAW promised her the jannah. And she may enter the jannah through any doors that are available. Subhanallah! How easy it is the path to jannah for muslimat mukminat. However, during the Isra' and Mikraj, Rasulallah witnessed that the many occupant in the hellfire are women!!!! How could that be???? According to the ustaz, assessing the ibadah done by the women, no doubt that they are the obedient servant of Allah, with solat (compulsory and sunat), with saum (fasting - compulsory and sunat). Therefore, what when wrong??? It' s the obedient to the husband that placed many muslimah in the hellfire. What? I am obedient, I obeyed him, I serve him well and fulfill all his

Damba CintaMu by Raihan

Assalamualaikum dearest readers, This is not a new song. I've listened to this before but it did not touched as it did recently. I recently listened to this again during the 'Cinta Masjid' Carnival in the 'Selangor Berselawat' which was aired direct from the Masjid Negeri Shah Alam. It was beautifully sung. Just listen to the lyrics carefully. It was a beautiful lyric and can definitely make the tears come rolling. Selamat Menyambut Ramadhan alMubarak. Semoga kita sama-sama sempat menempuhinya dan berlumba-lumba untuk mengutip imbuhan besar yang dijanjikan oelh Allah SWT kepada hamba2Nya yang bertaqwa. Semoga kita mendapat magfirah dariNYA. Wassalam.

Pencen Akhirat

Assalamualaikum dear readers. This morning while busy preparing food for Atikah to bring back to Dungun, I turned on the TV to listen to the morning talk show on TV AlHijrah. The guest speaker this morning was Prof Muhaya. She is an optometrist who turned into a motivator. The talk was about the upbringing of the chilldren. It was indeed a very relevant topic for a struggling mother like me. I like the phrase that she used - PENCEN AKHIRAT. She was telling the audience to look at how we bring up our children. She mentioned that when bringing up the children, we are to make sure not only to focus on the number of As that they obtained but also how they achieved in becoming a truly devoted muslimin and muslimat, mukminin and mukminat. For if the children are truly practicing muslimin and muslimat, mukminin and mukminat, therefore we will not be the parents who can be considered as "PENCEN AKHIRAT" when we no longer breathe on this world, because the children will continue t

Horizon Alam

Angin bertiupan Ombak memukul pantai Matahari mula mengintai di sebalik celahan awan Lintasan hormat Sang Helang mulai menghilang di sebalik awan Anak-anak berlari-lari dikejar ombak Pantai yang tidak berketepian, sungguh indah panorama alam Subhanallah Alhamdulillah Syukur dipanjat Keindahan alam ini bisa dikecapi Pepatah berkata, “Ilmu ibarat seluas air dilautan” Subhanallah Apakah mampu aku miliki walau sekelumit cuma Walau beratus tahun kehidupan, belum pasti mengjangkau sehirup lautan ilmu dapat kumiliki Pun yang penting, ilmu yang ada, diamal jangan alpa Agar setiap hari bertingkat keimanan p/s. Found this in my handphone doc. Composed while waiting for the kids mingling with the friendly waves. wallahua'lam

Jongkang-Jongket aka. Kehidupan

Assalamualaikum dear readers, Do you know what is this? Malays called it jongkang-jongket or the see-saw in English. Have you played it before? Do you enjoyed it? During which situation do you enjoy it the most? Is it when you are the higher position? Or when you are at the bottom? Let's think ... and imagine ..... Being up there ..... It is so breezy ..... We can look far ..... Yes! I like it when I was at the top. Now, do you agree with me if I said that the see saw is similar to our life? At times we are at the top, the other time we are at the bottom. You may say, "No, I am always at the top. I am the big boss. How can I be at the bottom?". You may say, "All the others are looking high upon me. I cannot be at the bottom". What is your judgement for being at the top? Is it the post you are holding? Be it the class monitor, school prefect, teachers, headmaster, managers, CEO etc. Is this your measuring yard for bein

Rindu Ini Milik Siapa

Assalamualaikum, dear readers. First of all, please answer my As-Salam so that both you and me will be rewarded evenly from Allah SWT. The title is not about a title of a book, nor a movie. It is just about a piece of our bits of life that we will bring to the hereafter. Today is the 40th day Bapak has left us. Today, in kampung, we perform a small family gathering to recite surah Yaseen and perform tahlil for Bapak as our gift to him. As a show of our never lasting love to him. I no longer weep over the loss but the tears will unnoticingly roll down the cheek almost after every solat. At times, I am ashamed of myself for doing so. But that's how I felt, that is how I dearly missed Bapak. What should I be ashame of??? I am ashame because I was not able to miss the Messenger, Rasulallah SAW as much as I miss Bapak!!!! I failed to become His devoted follower. There's nothing wrong with missing the loss of our loved ones. But how much do we miss Rasulallah SAW?? And I cried
