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 nafs. These are no other because the nafs was cleverly trained by the devil for 11 months to dislike all the good deeds. And Ramadhan is the time we fight against the nafs and retrain ourselves into liking ibadah and be close to Allah and was grouped among those who are granted maghfirah by Allah SWT. Hopefully, Ameen.

Just remember, FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!

When there's a NO to ibadah, fight it with a YES. Even if you have to drag yourself to the surau or masjid for tarawih, drag yourself. Even if you had to force you rself into turning the pages of AlQuran, do so. Just remember that when you fight against your own laziness, you are actually trying to train yourself into becoming an 'abidin - an obedient servant of Allah.

Remember, FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!

wallahua'lam

Asrama K.Ngah at MITST Alam Impian

Assalamualaikum. Asrama? Biasalah. Ramai yang pergi asrama. Nothing exciting about asrama. When I was a child, I used to read the story books. Series of them. We have the Famous Five, Secret Seven, Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and one of my favorite is the Malory Towers. Malory Towers tells a story about life in a boarding school. It is also a reason for me wanted to go to a hostel. It motivates me. I always thought that all hostels are as envisioned by the writer. Luxury place to stay with lots of friends around. Full of activities and adventure. But...well.... story books are mostly fictitious. It was written to draw readers into purchasing it. My hostel was far worst that what I imagined. But there is where I grew up - my teenage life. Sending K.Ngah aka. Sabrina to her hostel last Sunday, brought back the Malory Towers into me. The dorm was luxurios. Single bedded. Six in a room. Large closet. Plenty of storage space (drawers attached to the bottom of the bed). And a study

Antara Anyer dan Jakarta

"Antara Anyer dan Jakarta" was a title of a song sang by Sheila Majid back in 80s. I tried to find the meaning of "Anyer" using the Google translate but to no avail. What about the song? Nothing. It's just because I just came back from Jakarta for a conference trip cum SHOPPING trip. I was accompanied by Suzana Ahmad and Norizan. Day 1: ====== Our journey began on 12th December. At approximately 5am, the driver reached my house. Izan is already there, in a short while Suzana arrived. We headed to KLIA. The check-in was a winding queue. After checking-in it leaves us with barely enough time for fajr prayer. At 9am, the tree stooges sat foot on the Indonesia land. We make a quick visit to the money changer and proceed for a cab. We have planned for the trip carefully and agreed to travel light as we will not be checking-in to the hotel upon arrival as the checking in time is only at 3pm. Instead, we headed towards our first destination, TANAH ABANG. It is r

Doa ketika ternampak orang sakit dan mohon terhindar darinya.

Assalamualaikum, Ahad malam Isnin. Malam yang sedih sayu. Biasanya hari Ahad, adalah hari ziarah anak-anak atau hari menghantar anak-anak balik ke asrama. Upon doing that, when entering the home, I can feel the emptiness. The quiet house, no greetings, no laughters. And due to that, I will make my way to the surau, to gather bits of pearl of knowledge. "O Allah, forgive me if the reason for my being in Your masjid is wrong Forgive me, Ya Allah. But truthfully, its too quiet at home, and to me, being in the masjid is more meaningful rather than locked in the empty house alone. Forgive me Ya Allah." And tonight, it was Ustaz Firdaus. Sharing on Feqah. And one thing that I really think fruitful to share is this piece of doa. ‘Alhamdulillah hillazi aafani mim mabtalaka bihi wa fadhalaani ala kaseerim mimman khalaqa tafdheela.” The Prophet said: “If somebody recites this dua while he saw someone else in some fatigue or tensions, he would not be involved in t
