Life Like That

Assalamualaikum...

Setiap kali apabila pergi 'dating' untuk breakfast, aku pasti melalui sebuah Sekolah Rendah Agama.

Ada 2 perkara yang menggerakkan aku berbicara di sini:
1. Kecomelan anak-anak kecil berbaju sekolah agama. Yang perempuan berbaju kurung dan berkain hijau dengan tudung di kepala, manakala yang lelaki dengan baju melayu putih, bersamping dan songkok hitam tertenggek di kepala. Sungguh comel. Ada yang girang, ada yang muram. It reminds me of my kids when they were at these age. Cute. Clean. Naive.

2. Ibu bapa yang menghantar anak-anak ke sekolah. 90% berkereta pelbagai jenama, 10% lagi bermotorsikal atau berjalan kaki (mungkin rumah berhampiran). Ramai yang mengiringi anak ke pagar, tolong bawakan beg, ramai juga melepaskan peluk cium hanya di tepi maupun di dalam kereta. Isu hangatku di sini adalah tidak kurang juga yang bercita-cita menurunkan anak betul-betul di depan pagar, memberhentikan kereta secara semberono tanpa menghiraukan trafik di belakang atau laluan orang lain di hadapan. Aku yakin, hasratnya baik... untuk memastikan anaknya selamat masuk ke pagar.... siapa yang tidak.... semua ibu bapa pun begitu!!! Cuma berprihatinlah .... semua orang nak cepat, semua orang berkepentingan, jika berhajat menurunkan anak betul-betul di depan pagar, maka cara terbaik bersabarlah sehingga keadaan mengizinkan untuk kereta diberhentikan di hadapan pagar itu. Jangan pula mengganggu lalu lintas, menghalang laluan mereka yang juga ingin bersegera.

Wahai ibubapa! Ingat slogan 'Kepimpinan melalui teladan'? Kita menyediakan contoh untuk diteladani anak-anak. Jika kita tiada prihatinan dan timbang rasa terhadap orang lain, bagaimanakah anak-anak ingin mencontohi akhlak mulia itu?

"Parents shape and mold the child" ... prepare a good shape and mold for a good outcome. Insha Allah.

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
