Two happy Weekends

Assalamualaikum all,

Nothing is more happier than being together, when the whole family is around. When listening to the children's shouts and laughs. Allah has given these happiness on two unexpected occasions on two weekends.

Hakim's poor fingers due to eczema
  • Sunday, 29 October, its the outing day for Sabrina, and visiting day for Hakim. Ibu was ahead of time preparing lunch to bring to Hakim. We will fetch Sabrina from her school and head to Hakim's to serve him lunch. But... a message from a neighbour (who was with Hakim at school) informed that his eczema had worsened. We decided to take him to the clinic instead of just visiting him. A lunch we had together, a solat in jemaah with Hakim leading the solat is the most beautiful moment at break despite the tight a busy schedule. And ibu, managed to pack some food for them while kakak mixed the churros batter for them to taste. A happy family... Alhamdulillah. We never thought that we will be together during the weekend. Alhamdulillah... thank you Allah.

  • Friday, 31st October, at 3pm, Sabrina called, asked to be picked from school. It's her weekend overnight stayhome. Ibu wasn't expecting it. It was not in the schedule. It was unplanned, the teachers decided to let them leave the hostel to give some space for the seniors who are preparing for their SPM. Ibu was as delighted as Sabrina, picked her up from school. Looking forward for Sunday, 2 November, when it's Hakim's outing day. It's another unplanned get together. Alhamdulillah. Thank you Allah.


Having them at home gives a live to the quiet house. Ibu will be busy but that makes me happy. Busy with cooking, talking, shouting, nagging (not really), instructing ... but that makes me happy. When night comes, ibu has no more strength to even lift a finger... but ibu is still happy.

Allahu a'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
