Labbaikallah


Assalamu alaykum.

29 Zulkaedah. It is today. 
1 Zulhijjah is tomorrow.

Labbaikallahumma Labbaik.
Subhanallah. I missed Baitullah. I missed Masjidil Haram. I missed Masjidil Nabawi. I missed Haramain. I missed performing solat in this peaceful place. A place where we feel so close to Allah. Close to Allah despite the hectic situation around us. The most beautiful place on earth. The most beautiful family retreat that we had. May Allah grant us His forgiveness and allow us to be another one of His Dhuyuful-rahman again. Insha Allah.

This is a very interesting program. It brings us to the historical places in Makkah and Madinah and its surrounding. Appreciating the history brings us closer at heart to Rasulallah SAW. And closer to Allah SWT. Not only about visiting places, the program also discusses issues regarding pilgrimage. And my concentration is of course all the places - visited and not visited before. It gives a nostalgic feelings and arouse my desire to go to Haramain again.

I, once talk to a friend about going there again, and was advised not to. He argues that there are many other people around us that could gain benefit from the money that I would spend to go to Haramain. I very much agree to that. Insha Allah, I will not forget that but at the same time I would still want to go there. The MOST peaceful place to perform ibadah. I feel its good to be there every after few years to refresh our iman. To break free from the hectic 'worldly' life we are living in now. To devote ourself to   only Allah for few full days. And for once not thinking about work and worldly life for a while. Insha Allah. But again, we must get our Niat to go there right. Only to devote ourselves to Allah not to go for shopping or alike.


Ya Allah. Moga aku dijemput menjadi tetamuMu lagi. Ameen.

Wassalam.

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
