11 Tips to Hating Someone

Hey, ever wonder how to hate someone so good and so much?

1. Be rude. That person would not like you too. Thus, he/she would stay as far away as possible from you.
2. Be greater than the person. People say winning is the sweetest revenge.
3. Annoy him/her. He/she might hate you even more than you do.
4. Influence his/her friend that he/she is bad. With this way, you are able to take away the friends and gain support from them.
5. Keep hating that it makes you annoyed even by looking at her/him smiling
6. Keep hating that your heart hurts just by seeing her/him doing something nice.
7. Hate her/him even more if they’re perfect.
8. Hate them even worse if they’re not human
9. If none of the tip works or applies, then my advice is stop it.
10. Stop following the guide.
11. Stop hating

Cause you know what, 

no matter how much you try to make someone look bad,

no matter how much you tried to beat them, in the end the hatred hurts you not them. 

It EATS YOU not them.

No matter how bad the person is, he/she is only a human. 

Hate the actions not the person. Now, istighfar ;)

P/S: Well, if that person is not a human, do tell me. I might call NASA or CIA. Or Sherlock.

Generalising? Not so Quick.

Orang Melayu ni banyak malas ah. Tak suka kerja you tau.

Chinese are all so arrogant. Don't nego with them, they all ni penipu je

Indians ni panas baran tau. Suka cari gaduh.

Oh orang Sabah eh? Ada internet ke kat sana?

Wahabi dah dia ni. Tengoklah statement dia...ape entah..

Bajet cakap omputeh. Sombong, lupa asal usul dah dia ni, BM kan ada...


Dan banyak lagiiiiii....

Penat.

Tired of seeing and hearing all these stereotypes. It's never-ending and it might probably will never end cause, what power do we have to stop people's judgement and criticism? Barely. And the media, movies and social keep portraying all these stereotypes the same way.

We tend to generalise that all the Indians, all Malays and whoever are the same which led to the same treatment.

If you learn psychology, you will associate studies with generalisations a lot. To make it simple, you can't really generalise that everyone will act this way if they have this or that. This is due to individual differences.

Humans are so complex that there is no way that each and everyone of us will act the same way and have the same attitude towards a certain event.  In fact, there are variation of reaction and attitude that we express causing it very hard for psychologists to read, and determine whether, it is genuine or not, or does it affected by other factors and so many others lah.

In many experiments, the researchers have to conclude with a reduction and generalise to simplify their study. And for us to have better understanding about, us, generally. Although actually, humans are not that simple and can be affected by so many factors but of course, that will mess our heads up.

That is why I'm telling you, psychology is not as easy as you think. Humans are complicated, so do the subject. Thank you.

The same case with our stereotypes. Do you really think that anyone who said a particular stuff or act in a certain way is already considered Wahabi or Syiah? Do you really think that most Chinese are liars?  Do you really think that the uncivilised parts of Sabah you saw on TV are actually the whole Sabah? And do you really think that I am sombong and have forgotten my asal-usul because I spoke English?

Don't eat and swallow everything you saw, listen or grow up with. Do your research. It doesn't matter if it was told by your best friend, your ustaz, neighbours, or whoever. Well, yes, respect them. Listen to them, but that also does not mean that you have to accept the information as a whole. DO YOUR RESEARCH. Read, a lot. Listen to forums, debates and lectures. Refer and asked questions from the experts or from the one who knows better about a certain topic.
Interact and befriend with a lot of types people. You'll be surprised with how wonderful these people actually are.

It is important to open up your mind but that doesn't mean you have to accept every opinion. Hold on to your faith and principle as it is the base. Strengthen the base, and thus, you won't easily crumble. With a strong faith and principle, you won't be easily influenced by the stereotypes and negativity. Because of your faith, you have reasons to fight for what you are fighting for. It is not because of what people are going to say, but it is because of what you believe in and hold on to.

So people, don't generalise too quick. There are about 1.6 millions Muslims worldwide. So, if Muslims are terrorists, the world would probably end people. Same goes to the other ethnicity and races. Istighfar brothers and sisters. Don't get so quick on criticising. Be quick on action, for the betterment of all of us :)

Wassalam.

28 Days of Lessons on Life

"Kau pergi mana sebenarnya?"

They kept asking me that.

"Kem MHi"

And most of them responded the same way.

"Apa tu? Malaysia Hari Ini. Haha"

I laughed along. 

"Madrasatul Hayah ikram. Kem sebulan for SPM leavers"

And the response this time are varied.

"Waah. Macam best je" 

"Ngajok!"

"Oh, ikram ye"

"Buat apa je kat sana?"

"Lamanyaaaa"

And much more. Well, the answer?

It's not a camp. Nope. It's a school.
School that teaches me about life. (Nama pun sekolah kehidupan. Nampak tak permainannya)

• D dan T 

Well MHi doesn't teach life as a whole but isnt tarbiyyah and da'wah (D&t) LIFE?

Before, I didn't take heed of D and T.

But here, I truly realized that, it's my mission. OUR mission.

During our street dakwah, I realized that there's a lot I need to learn. Really.

"I don't think Muhammad's advice is suitable to be practiced nowadays, in our modern age"

An Australian lady I approached mentioned it. I disagree but still, I couldn't give a solid answer to tackle that statement. I was pretty much disappointed with myself.
Which brings me to a conclusion that I need to truly understand and learn more about Islam and the current issues.

Street dakwah was absolutely an eye-opening experience.

And communicating skills, I need to sharpen it.

OUR MISSION, is on the move!

• Ukhuwah

Here, I met all sorts of people. The commited, the emotional, the rebellious (kinda), the funny one, the serious, the quirky, the immature, the quiet ones and much much more.

With the fact that we're from different schools with very different personalities, we could actually bond really well. Sampai basah lemas dihanyut deras ukhuwah.

Sampai basah muka kerana deras air mata. Air mata perpisahan.

And the Whatsapp group will always be filled with notifications. They won't stop.

 Until when? We'll see.

But what's important is in the heart, not in the social media itself.

• Skills

Cooking, sewing, self-defence, public speaking, debate, leadership, media, menari? Maybe.

Too many things were learned. Too much. Oh yes, we cook everything ourselves. We cooked for 100+ people. Yes, we did, EVERYDAY.

My group wasn't a good cook though, which includes me. 

And I didn't finish my public speaking. What a disappointment. Sabrina would be disappointed. 

• Special Little Things

Ice cream motor, came by almost every evening. And I, always hope that someone will treat me one. And they always do.

Syurga! 

P.O. Back to sunnah!

Makan dalam talam.

Help the flood victims in Perak.

And MHi 14/15 itself.

Thank you. Shukran. Arigato. Kamsahamida. Danke. Terima kasih. Alhamdulillah.

Berakhirlah suatu bab kehidupan. Ayuh buka lembar yang baru. :)

Superheroes Let Go

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim

Habis. Kholas. Finish. The end. SPM. 

Alhamdulillah. 

Thought that it would cheer me up, knowing that there are no strings on me anymore.

But nope. I was glad and relieved but, the feeling of cheerfulness? Nope, it wasn't there. Instead, the gloom invaded me in and out.

And you know why. 

Yes, there are no strings on me. But that also include Maahad. That one string that I refused to let go, as if the string is attached to a balloon filled with helium gas of memories.

 ( Metaphoric yg terlalu hiperbola )

If I let it go, that fragile balloon of memories will float up towards the sky, further and further until it looks like a little red dot. And disappears.

Or it explodes before your eyes with no mercy before it even reach the clouds. 

Its cruel. Yes, the world can be cruel. But only if you think like that.

have faith. There are more to life than you think it is. 

Past is past. They are meant to be learnt from, not to be kept. 

Cause if you keep it to your heart for too long, you'll never be ready for what's ahead. Let it go. 

Future IS scary. But that's what you're living for, fighting for.

In fact, there are still strings on me and you. A lot more. Past is beautiful but hey, you're not living in it anymore. 

The world needs us. No time to gape. No time to throwback. No time to waste. We are the SUPERHEROES the world have been waiting for.

Stop hiding behind those masks of pretentiousness and glamor. 

Start the fight. By using your weapons of wisdom and courage.

"Die trying or stay alive for a hundred yours with no purpose"

We won't probably have the cool suit like Batman. And probably not as famous as Ironman.

But to Allah, we'll absolutely be way cooler than Batman. And imagine having our names mentioned among the Creatures in the sky, now that's cool.

So now, can you feel the excitement of being the SUPERHEROES?

10 years from now...

If Allah wills,

I will be 27

I would be a little taller

Can drive my own car. Yes, I would have my own car, but not the one I dreamed of. Because at that age, my dreams wasn't really my priority.

At that age I need to prioritize my job, and my family's needs.

I would also be working as an assistant property dealer and also helping to realize my sister's dream school in any way I could.

I also would be working out to open a business with my friends.

Going to programs and talks that I've always wanted to go.

And having lots and lots of invitations to weddings (lol).

Well, that's the idealistic ones. 

The other possibility is more realistic.

10 years from now,

I would be far away from all of you,

Even if you're in US, Africa or still in Malaysia

I'm still far away from all of you

But you know where to find me

I might be deep beneath the surface of the earth, marked with stones that were carved with my name and the date I breathed my last.

The people who came to visit would smile instead of weeping

And hopefully, I would also be smiling my brightest and the happiest of them all.

You know what I mean.

...if Allah wills


 For death is certain.

"The Best of All"

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim

"Describe your Ramadhan"

This is it:

"Aku nak berangkat ni."

"Jap". Ku peluk erat sahabat lama ku itu.

'Eh, tak pernah-pernah peluk aku."

"Tahun ni, aku belajar macam-macam dari kau. Serius weh!"

Dia tersenyum. "Bukan aku aku yang ajar kau. Allah. Aku just dihantar ke sini untuk peringatkan korang je".

Namun, ku masih memegang erat tangannya. Berharap agar dia dapat tinggal lebih lama lagi.

"Dahlah. Syawal nak datang tu. Kau lepas ni jangan nakal-nakal bila aku dah takde ni."

Ku lepaskan tangannya. Perlahan-lahan, dia makin menjauh dariku. Yang ada di depan mata ku, "Wal. Ahlan.":)

Ku berbisik kepada diri, 'Moga aku kuat'.


*jujur dari hati yang tulus murni. Eceh.

Setakat ini, Ramadhan kali ini yang paling mendidik dan yang paling indah. Serius. May Allah bless.

And have a blast Eid everyone!

Now

I'm feeling happy and ecstatic since... don't know since when

But when I reached home, open the Internet. My smile fades away.

And you know why.

What scares me more is, how more inhumane and terrifying the world can be when I grow up

When our generation the ones who are going to take over...

But just being afraid alone will not do much.
Let us all ponder for a while

What we must have by now:

• Ambition

It doesn't have to be like an occupation, doctor etc. Dreams have no boundary. You can even dream to invade the world. Well, if you want to. 

• Plans

Don't just dream and be ambitious. You have to plan how you're going to reach your ambition and stop being dependent on luck. Because luck don't really exist. 

• Action! 

You have the target and the strategies (plans), so now all you have to do is to 'shoot'! It doesn't have to be a drastic act! One by one. Istiqamah. If your dreams are realised, try to have new ambition and goals. Or an endless dream. Entering His Jannah :)

Condolences and prayers for them and their family members.

And for a better world. 

Don't just tweet and share, PRAY!

#MH17 #PrayforGaza #PrayforBoth

Truth is...

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim

Dear Reader,

Whoever you are, if you turn out to know me in real life, please

Tell me if I did something really wrong

Instead of ignoring me

But silently punishing me by the mistakes I've done

Please...

Don't try to avoid me just because you don't to want be involved with a person like me

Who've done a mistake that you never tell I did

I'm just a normal human being, like you

Weak, like what's written in the Quran

In the Surah An-Nisa'

That's why my brothers and sisters

He created you and me

To support each other

So we won't go astray

You guide me and I'll guide you

In the best way, Muhammad S.A.W.'s way

But hey...

I can accept a direct critic right on my face

Though it might hurt a bit

Not a bit, a lot

Let it be, let me be

Let me feel the sensation of pain that I haven't feel for quite some time

Because with pain, I'll truly realize

Who I really am all this time

TRUTH hurts but hey, it is way better than LIES

It Is Certain

Nothing is certain

We can't make sure that we gonna graduate one day

We can't make sure we'll get married

We can't also make sure that we'll see tomorrow

You can't even make sure that you'll finish reading this post

But one thing is certain...

Death.


Be ready. It'll come any second, anywhere.
It can't be avoided.

No matter how much you plead, beg and cry. Your life will still be taken away
And that's the bridge to the afterlife

All that's left, heaven and hell. Which would you choose?

Not even one person would wanna choose hell.
But are you qualified enough for Heaven?

Think about it.

Do something.

Now.

The clock is ticking

Death won't delay.

Dilema Budak Sekolah Agama

This is a survey that I've just done at....... .a group in Facebook.

I've done a poll and these are their responses. (it's a long post, so just bear with it)

FIRST! (26 votes)

• "Rasa bersalah buat benda lagha tapi.......... buat jugak" 

Komen:  These days, there's too much entertainment, social webs, it's hard for us not to involve. And it's because they want to follow the trend. They don't want to be called old-fashioned. This is what I'm facing too right now.

It's okay to do these things BUT, not too excessive until you become obsessed with artists, songs and others (but that's what happening). Until it disturbs our studies! And worse, our relationship with Allah! Na'uzubillah.  Berpada-pada,ok!
 If dah rasa bersalah tu, kurangkan! 

SECOND~(23 votes)

• "Dipandang baik oleh semua orang , tapi sebenarnya kita ni takdelah baik sangat"

Komen: Of course! You're studying in an Islamic school and you're studying about Islam. Islam teaches you to be good. Of course-lah you have to be good! Of course-lah orang pandang kita ni baik.

Memanglah kita ni tak baik sangat. Solat tak khusyuk, Surah Yasin pun kadang-kadang sangkut. Ber-twitting, Facebook sampai pagi.

Nobody's perfect. So, with those impression, why don't you take it as a motivation to try to improve yourself jadi lebih baik. Right?


THIRD...(14 votes)

• "Di'cop' ustaz/ustazah/imam muda dan yang sewaktu dengannya" 

Komen: Biasalah! Memanglah kadang-kadang rasa macam nak bagi buku lima dekat pipi gebu mereka but, it's better that they call you ustaz/ustazah than mat rempit, right?

Ni lebih kurang je dengan yang lagi satu. Take this to also motivate yourself to be as good as ustaz/ustazah. Maybe better than that! 

• "Tak rasa macam budak sekolah agama pun"

Komen: Kenapa ye? Tak rasa macam budak sekolah agama ke, tak rasa macam orang Islam?

Renung-renungkan. Don't blame the others. Think about it. Improve yourself, not as a 'budak sekolah agama' but as a better MUSLIM.

FORTH! (9 votes)

• "Tak dapat nak jawab soalan agama dan B. Arab bila ditanya"

Komen: That means you have a lot to learn and......pay attention during the class! 

Tapi, kalau soalan agama atau B. Arab tahap mega tu, boleh dimaafkanlah kot.

FIFTH...(7 votes)

• "Nak tegur ke tak nak?"

Komen: We are 'budak sekolah agama'. So, we have some advanced religious knowledge than 'budak sekolah biasa'. And when we saw someone did a mistake like in solat or aurat kan. There's always a voice in our head saying "Nak tegur ke tak nak?".

And it's harder if it's a stranger. Hardest if it's someone who is older than you.

And another voice came "Nanti dia fikir aku nak bajet pandai" or "Nanti dia fikir aku saja nak malukan dia"

And you end up.....

Not good. 
Siapa lagi nak tegur kalau bukan kita?!
But our mentality keeps us from it! Arggh! These voices are so freaking bad! Don't listen to them! Let the felling of guiltiness of not approaching the person haunts you~

"Nanti forever dia salah, SEBAB AKU TAK TEGUR.....pastu nanti aku kena soal kat akhirat....pastu..aku"

So, 'tegur' that person!

It's in the 5th place means they're not really haunted by this dilemma. That means........they do approach the people if they did a mistake OR they actually don't and think that this is not a thing to be concerned about (not good~). I'm not even sure.

Dan kalau nak tegur tu, tegurlah dengan berhikmah! Jangan main tegur melulu!

SIXTH~ (6 votes)

• "Jadi harapan dalam kalangan family/saudara kerana satu-satunya belajar agama"

Komen: Wow! Berat ni! Alhamdulillah, Allah nak suruh kau bimbing family/ saudara-saudara kau tu.

It's really a big responsiblity especially when they put high hopes to you. The 6 person who votes for this are guys. And yes, men are meant to lead.

So, GANBATTE, guys! Lead them!


SEVENTH! (5 votes)

• "Terasa sukar nak dakwah family/friends/saudara"

Komen: Almost the same with the above but, this one is somehow did out of responsibility and voluntarily and not because of high hopes people give. But, yeah it's almost the same. Dakwah memang kadang-kala agak sukar, especially to people who knows us. Especially when we are the ONLY ONE who is from 'sekolah agama'.

Be strong. Me, too, is facing this dilemma. And I find it hard. But I've tried, a bit and I'm still trying.

EIGTH... (2 votes)

• "Terasa awkward di tempat awam bila pakai tudung labuh/jubah apatah lagi bila diperhati"

Komen: I thought many would choose this, but fortunately, just two votes. Ok, firstly, there's no need to be so awkward. Ok, yeah it's kinda awkward to wear those but try to think that "Kau tutup aurat, buat apa nak malu?". You should be PROUD!

• "Kau?! Budak sekolah agama? Tak cayalah!

Komen: Ahah! Maybe it's the way you talk! Hey! Jangan mencarut! Improve your akhlak. Akhlak tu mencerminkan diri seseorang tu macam mana.

• "Sukar untuk socialize, lagi-lagi dengan yang berlainan jantina"

Komen: Well, this one. It always happen with old friends, cousins, no matter same gender or opposite gender because of different backgrounds. 

But in the 'sekolah agama' circle, it's always with the opposite gender, well, to certain people because this one got only two votes.

It's good that 'sekolah agama' environment didn't affect our social life BUT I'm afraid that we became too social because of the limit of socializing with the opposite gender in the school. That's what usually happening in social webs. 

NINTH, AND LAST~ (1 vote)

•  "Dipandang rendah, dicondemn dan yang sewaktu dengannya"

Komen: This only got one vote but still, we need to pay attention to it

Being condemned and underestimated by the community because we 'budak sekolah agama'? Just ignore them but if they condemn us because "Budak sekolah agama sekarang  ni sama je macam budak tak belajar dekat sekolah agama". Wohoh! That means we  really to fix our image as the people who are studying Islam. 

Not just fixing the image as a 'budak sekolah agama' but as a MUSLIM who is studying Qur'an, and Hadith! 

But there are 'budak sekolah agama' who is being underestimate by 'budak sekolah agama' themselves. True story, bro. This happens because of the judgement and impression towards a person. Not 'alim' and something like that. So immature...

CONCLUSION

Us, people around us and trend. That's what made us having these to face these dilemma. 

These days trend: fashion, entertainment, technology and ....bla bla bla. Most of it are against Islam's teachings. Too late. It's already become a part of our community's life.

People around us have been getting used to this trend and Islam's teachings become estranged. 

And we, 'budak sekolah agama' are trying to practice Islam in this community. But Islam is starting to secularize in our community without we realizing.

And we struggle, dilemmas come one by one. 

At the end, it all depend on ourselves and Allah. Our mentality, strength and faith.

And these dilemmas, shouldn't be faced by 'budak sekolah agama' only but by MUSLIMS. All Muslims suppose to sense this!

But Islam have been isolated day by day. 

So, it all goes to us 'budak sekolah agama' because we are still teenagers. Teenage is the age at its golden but many misused it to enjoy the worldly life.  

Teenagers are the hope of society, future's leaders. 

It all goes to us!  

Thanks for reading this decent post. Hope it's informational. Wassalam

When Will it End?

It's Ramadhan. Tapi...

Kekejaman, di Syria.

Protes, di Mesir

Tak berpenghujung, di Palestin

Dan banyak lagi, Libya, Morocco.....

SYRIA...
It's been very long since it started. Since the Arab Spring.
Bashar's regime against his own citizens. Many lives have been taken. It's Ramadhan, but still, the brutality doesn't get any lesser.

When will it end? Only Allah knows.

 EGYPT
Ketika Mubarak jatuh, dan Morsi mengambil alih, they thought they've achieve freedom and victory.

But...there are still minorities who don't want Morsi. Minorities? No one thought that...
....it'll happens once again, another revolution.

Jatuhnya Presiden Morsi. Diambil alih oleh Abdul Fattah Al-Sisi, digelar Firaun moden. Penyokong Morsi menentang pengambilalihan ini, memihak kepada Morsi. Lalu, revolusi, protes semakin berleluasa. 'Perang' berlaku di antara yang memihak dan yang menentang.

Makin banyak nyawa yang terkorban. Siapa yang akan menang?

PALESTINE
Palestine, an open-air prisoner. Prisoner of the innocents. Caged by ruthless Zionists Israelis. Being bombed and shot for nothing. Being oppressed and lands taken.

Once, there were supply given by Egypt through Rafah and tunnels. That were the only connection they have with the outside world. But, since the fall of Morsi, the tunnels were collapsed, Rafah was closed by the Egyptians military themselves.

Now, they're stuck, lack of supply for oil, food and other basic needs.

But, Allah will always help his servants. Allah dah janji, Palestine will be free.

"We know too well that our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of Palestinians" - Nelson Mandela

Tengok, orang kafir pun cakap macam tu.

May Allah bless them, especially in this holy month of Ramadhan. Grant them shahid, Ya Allah. They're my brothers. They're my sisters. May victory and happiness be granted for Your faithful servants.
Friends, let's pray for them. Doa itu senjata orang Islam. Orang kafir mana ada senjata ni.

Let's pray for them!!

Allah...

I just had a bad week, last week.

1. I've been anticipating for MUSLEH competition next week since the holiday! BUT, my hopes were crushed and crumpled. We couldn't participate it because of some reasons. School stuff.
2. And then at the same day, I got my Physics paper which we've been waiting for so long to get and..... it's really hard to smile after that. It was TERRIBLE! My friend tried to cheer me up and yeah, I forced myself to smile (and I kept singing Bad Day)
3. Also, in that week, I felt ignored by my friends. I don't know whether it's just me being too sensitive OR they really do ignore me.

Which reminded me of my old friends, already-move-to-other-school friends and my FAMILY.

I really want to call my mother badly but.... I'm afraid I'll cry and don't really know what to say. (I don't want her to find out my Physics just yet)

And next week, I, oops, I mean WE have to take over the school's reign from the Form 5s. And i have to prepare myself and brace my self for the job.

It was a bad week with the fact that my birthday was just around the corner (22nd June, Sat)

I almost cried because all of this, BUT then I tell myself, "Why should I cry? This is nothing!"

Allah is probably trying to test me right now.

I also realized that I always forget Him.


Selangkah ku pergi dari Mu, selangkah Kau dekat padaku.

Selangkah ku padaMu, seribu langkah kau pada ku.

Malunya aku...

Ikhwan! Jadi 'Sebelah Sayap' Aku, Boleh?

Another video from Matluthfi!

I bet most of you have watched it. Just wanna give some of my thoughts about this video, and bercakap tentang ukhuwah ye di situ.

The video made me smile~ ^.^

 Matluthfi had made another amazing video that left me thinking again and again.

To hope, I need to fear..

I actually wanna elaborate more but it's gonna be too long and yeah, let's just talk about ukhuwah!

A GOOD IKHWAN IS THE ONE WHO! :

• HIS ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS!

It is! Look how Luthfi try to help his drunkard friend, Ihsan. He didn't really talk or try to preach his friend much. But he did his best to help him.

He listened to him when he's in trouble.
He help to trash those liquors.
He gave a simple initiative for him to change slowly, he gave HOPE ^.^ (that's what people are lacking)

While the other friend, keep preaching him, in a wrong way. He seems to try to find his mistakes than helping him. I don't even think that he acted as a friend, or a brother. 

He wasn't there when Ihsan was in trouble.
He hastily blaming him.
He don't understand people's feeling!

• UNDERSTANDS HIS 'BROTHER'

Ihsan, the drunkard KNOWS that liquor is haram in Islam. So, Reefqi must understand that. 

The problem is, Ihsan doesn't know how to stop cause he have to fight his emotions with those liquor. Do you think it's easy for a drunkard to stop drinking!? It's like trying to stop smoking or drugs.

And another problem is that he got a very dark family background. His father is a drunkard. So, it's hard for him cause he already used to it! He already used to have liquors as the solution for all his emotional problems.

So, if his friend keep preaching him (seem more like perli) and blaming him for that, it's a bit useless.

I mean like, WHO DOESN'T KNOW THAT LIQUOR IS HARAM!? Most Muslims do.

So, Reefqi must understands that Ihsan can't just stop drinking just like that!

Ihsan needs someone to support him to stop drinking those alcohols. He needs a friend to lead him to Allah slowly because he started to understand Islam a bit late. And Luthfi try to.

• THINKS POSITIVE 

Well, Reefqi suggested that Ihsan does not believe in Allah because he still drinks liquor.

And...yeah, you know what I'm trying to say right?

Doesn't mean when someone does a bad thing, he's a bad person, right?

And right now, in our society, ramai yang TAHU tapi ramai yang tak SEDAR. Bahaya tu!

But in this case, sesetengah TAHU dan SEDAR, but they don't know how or afraid to change! Sebab stigma masyarakat kita yang negatif.

"Apa buang tabiat ke budak ni?"

"Alaah, bajet je tu nak tobat.."

"Kau! Hijrah! Eish, orang macam kau ni nak tobat, tak caye aku!"

"Kau dosa banyak gila! Tuhan nak ampunkan ke?"

PEOPLE CHANGE! They're not animals, who eat the same type of food and habit until they die! (well, there are some rare cases)

Kerana stigma negatif ni, orang takut nak berubah. So, as a good friend, kalau rasa macam tak cukup ilmu tu, jangan risau. Anda patutnya bertindak sebagai SAHABAT bukan sebagai CIKGU atau MOTIVATOR dengan sijil PhD.

SAHABAT yang baik kena positif dan bagi harapan! Ajaklah kawan untuk buat baik. Tak perlu pot pet sangat. Just ajak mereka bila kita nak solat ke, pergi masjid, pergi ceramah, study, and with hopes, they'll get used to it and change!

YOU'RE A FRIEND, NOT A TEACHER or a COUNSELOR. You don't really need nice words. So act like one! Just be there for them! Sokong, jangan condemn. Jadi sebelah sayapnya untuk dia terus terbang. 

Kita umat Islam kan bersaudara~!

"If religion fails to offer hope, it is not divinely from God"

So, hayatilah Islam. Jika tidak, kita rasa kosong.

Egypt To Me

 So, a few weeks ago, I went to visit my brother at Alexandria, Egypt. Well, I'm not gonna tell you about where we go, what we do. I just gonna tell you about what is Egypt to me, how I feel after visiting it.

 At first, I expect Egypt as a developing country better than Indonesia, the place maybe gonna be kinda dirty. And I also expect the Egyptians themselves are probably rough but kind and friendly to us.

 But, I was wrong. The dirtiness and highway jam are worse than Jakarta. Rubbish everywhere it looks like slums except at the at the city where the rich people live, of course. And they are very rough one. But if there are some of them who are kind, they are very, very kind. Oh, what was Hosni Mubarak doing all this time to you, Egypt?

  Not all the Egyptian Muslimah are well-covered. They're actually very 'fashionable'. Red blouse, blue tight jeans and red shawl. White inner, green sweater, green floral shawl, tight black jeans and nice furry boots. Wow.

 And it's a bit hard to differentiate the Muslims and the Christians here. There are Christians who also wear shawl like the Muslims. They also say Insha-Allah and Wa-Allahi when they talk because it's their language you know. And the shawls are also is their culture.

  While I was in Egypt, there are still 'muzaharat' a.k.a demonstration where they gather and talk and ban and sometimes doing chaos. Yeah, it still happen because the Pro-Mubarak and whoever are banning Mursi, the current Egypt president. And macam-macamlah kesnya. Well, it's not really teruk sangat. Just maybe, causing jam. Come on, you all. Mubarak is nothing anymore. Mursi is a nice guy and try to help you all. Come on-lah.

 The jam, oh yes. Especially in Cairo when the 'dustur' aka 'perlembagaan' baru cannot be carried and implemented as there are less vote for it to be implemented and used. So, they don't have, easy to say, rules yet. So, gosh the roads were so, so congested with cars and people crossing the roads calmly like there are no cars.One person almost stuck between two cars. But she just stay cool..

 But after venturing Egypt for two weeks, I see Egypt has a lot of potential to rise again. Under the new reign of Mursi, Egypt can rise as a developed country. I know that, I believed that.

And here are are some of our pictures in Egypt!

Accomplished!!..?

TRIAL, mission accomplished!
PMR, not accomplished yet...
Ramadhan, it just started...rite.. but..there's only 10 days left?!

It's Ramadhan, it's August and wow! It have been three months since I wrote the last post.

Cannot blogging too much, I'm a PMR candidate.
So, I have to act like one.

Ramadhan, a month so full of blessings and the right month to focus more and double up our deeds to Allah.
But, since my trial happened at this month, I'm interrupted.
I kept focusing more on studies for the trial and yeah, what a shame on me.

O Allah, forgive me for being such a neglectful servant.

And since the trial had just finished, time for 'payback' time!
Appreciate the freedomness to focus and double up the deeds for the last 10 nights! 
Let's accomplished it!

Alhamdulillah~

Last week, I learned something. To be grateful.
Very, grateful. And stop complaining.

 Well, sometimes we keep complaining, "Eeehh, bencinya bila nyamuk, semut ni gigit...gatallah!" or maybe "Panasnya..", walaupun tak adalah panas sangat pun.

You know, a few days ago, my English teacher, Pn. Muna taught us about a man named Stephen Hawking. He's famous for his genius brain, although he has a brain disease that cause him to be disabled. He can't do anything except breathing and think.

 But, it's not really about that.  She also talks about leukaemia, how painful the disease is. Even hearing about how cruel the disease is, makes me feel so grateful to Him. Seriously, there is this medicine which is very hot and the doctors need to inject (big inject) it in the patient's blood vessels. I just can't imagine how the leukaemia patient can face it.So, let us all stop complaining.

And lots of my friends, maybe 7,8 person, were having fever. I thought it suppose to be the "fever season". But the weird thing is, the one who has the fever are only my batch. Sore throats voices echos in our study room. Ramai yang suara 'rock-rock'. I didn't feel lucky, but grateful because I'm healthy! Alhamdulillah~

Well, kalau demam memanglah boleh balik. Tapi, bila dah balik asrama balik nanti, homework yang dulu hanya tanah-pamah pun menjadi Gunung Kinabalu. Lepas tu, kena study balik apa yag sudah terlepas. Penat tu..

And whenever I feel lonely, I feel sad, everybody don't care about me, I realized that "Allah do care about me, right? So, do I have to care if the other don't care about me." That makes me smile.

 Oh, this makes me smile.
And you know what? There's a difference between feeling LUCKY and GRATEFUL, of course. And sorry for how boring this post is. I'm just expressing and lack of ideas.
Alhamdulillah and Happy Maulidur Rasul!

Ujian....

 Korang pernah tak terfikir macam ni?

 "Aku rasa bahagia betul keluarga aku ni. Macam sempurna je. Macam ada yang tak kena. Takkan ada  sesuatu akan terjadikan? Jatuh miskin ke, orang yang aku sayang tinggalkan aku untuk selamanya ke...

Aku memang tak nak semua tu. Tapi, aku tengok kawan aku kena dugaan macam-macam. Aku tak kena ke?"

Astaghfirullahal'azim...pernah tak terfikir macam tu? Aku pernah terfikir macam tu. Dah lama dah aku terfikir macam tu. Tapi, teringat semula sebab baru-baru ni ibu kawan aku masuk hospital sebab sakit, dan saudaraku ada something wrong sehingga aku terfikir semula. 

 Mungkin Allah sayang kat aku kot, sebab tu aku tak kena, tapi, bila difikirkan semulakan...orang yang ditimpa ujian tu lah yang sebenarnya Allah lagi sayang. Habis, Allah tak sayang akulah?

Mungkin, sebab aku bukannya baik sangat. Tak jugakkan sebab...sebenarnya, ujian yang Allah timpakan kat kita tak semestinya kesusahan. Sebenarnya, ada ujian yang Allah timpakan kepada umat Nabi Muhammad S.A.W, iaitu kita dengan harta kekayaan. Menurut hadis di bawah:

“Sesungguhnya setiap umat itu ada ujiannya dan ujian umatku adalah harta kekayaan. “

So, bila aku fikirkan semula, mungkin sebenarnya aku sedang diuji dengan harta dan teknologi yang berlambak di sekeliling aku. TV, iPad, facebook dan macam-macam kesenangan lagilah.
Mungkin anda pun sama.
Disebabkan semua teknologi ni, kita lalai dan terlupa Allah, kan?

Setiap manusia akan diuji dengan ujian Allah.Itu pasti.
Dan setiap manusia kat atas muka bumi ni pasti akan menghadapi musibah! Tak kisahlah siapa pun. Bersedialah untuk menghadapinya! Mungkin aku dan anda masih remaja. Dah besar nanti, macam-macam.

Lagipun, tujuan Allah menguji kita adalah untuk menguji ketabahan dan kekuatan iman kita. Seperti yang difirmankan oleh Allah:

Patutkah manusia menyangka bahawa mereka akan dibiarkan dengan hanya berkata: Kami beriman, sedang mereka tidak diuji (dengan sesuatu cubaan)? Dan demi sesungguhnya! Kami telah menguji orang-orang yang terdahulu daripada mereka, maka (dengan ujian yang demikian), nyata apa yang diketahui Allah tentang orang-orang yang sebenar-benarnya beriman dan nyata pula apa yang diketahuiNya tentang orang-orang yang berdusta. (Al-Ankabut: 2-3)

Macam kat sekolah  la...cikgu kasi exam sebab nak tahu kita berusaha tak, belajar tak? Kalau tak ada exam, mesti kita tak ingat apa yang kita dah belajar, kan? Kalau tak ada exam jugak, belajar je, tak best jugak kan? 

 Macam tu lah juga hidup kita,kalau tak ada apa-apa dugaan, macam mana kita nak jadi kuat?

Kalau simple and normal, bahagia je...bosan jugak kan.

Seperti post di blog abang aku, hidup tak lengkap tanpa ujian (lebih kurang macam tu lah).

Lagipun, hati manusia ni berbeza-beza. So, Allah kasilah jenis ujian yang berbeza-beza, mengikut kekuatan masing-masing. Allah takkan menguji seseorang hambaNya itu dengan ujian yang melebihi kemampuannya. Allah kan Maha Penyayang.

Kesimpulannya, ujian ni ada macam-macam jenis. Kesenangan tu pun ujian. Jadi, sentiasalah bersedia dan jangan lalai. Jangan putus asa kalau ditimpa musibah sebab itu tanda Allah sayang kita.Janganlah pandang negatif ujan Allah ni.

Ujian menimpa diri, berdoalah kepada Allah. Mungkin kita ditimpa musibah sebab kita pernah melakukan maksiat, tinggal solat ke. So, kita kenalah muhasabah diri dan bertaubat. Apabila kita diuji, kebanyakannya akan kembali pada Allah. Yang kembali tu, alhamdulillah, Allah sayang betul kat dia. Yang terus buat maksiat? Wallahua'lam..harap-harap ditunjukkan hidayah.

And alhamdulillah, hidup aku, keluarga aku stabil dan bahagia, mengamalkan cara hidup Islam.

Dan ada suatu mutiara kata yang ingin saya kongsi, yang patut kita amalkan (tertulis di atas buku tazkirah seorang kawan) "Kalau ditimpa ujian, jangan minta diringankan, tapi mintalah agar dikuatkan hati untuk menghadapinya".

Sekian~

Be Rational and Sincere

 Yesterday, I just watched a video by Mat Luthfi and I believe you know him. He is the famous vlogger/ youtuber in our country. I happen to know him through my brother, Adib months ago. I'm attracted to his video because it's not just about the funny stuff but it is because he can give the good message while making you laugh and make you think and think again...

 And here's a video from Matluthfi. This time, it's a bit different than before because this time, it's a short film.

Hope you'll enjoy it and at the same time, take the message~ (because it almost make me cry)

Kesimpulannya, janganlah mempercayai sesuatu benda tu tanpa mengetahui rasionalnya dan kita takkan mampu hidup tanpa bergantung kepada Allah SWT ^_^

Selamat Tinggal, Ramadhan~

Yang balik kampung, hati-hatilah drive. Kalau anda bukan drivernya, nasihatilah ayah anda, kalau perlu. Bukan ayah yang bawa juga? Abang anda? Siapa? Ibu anda? Hubby anda? Siapa-siapa jelah yang menjadi driver, berhati-hatilah sehingga sampai ke destinasi yang dituju IAITU kampung anda. ( Apa benda yg aku merepek ni)

Last but not least and highly-super duper important!!

Ya!! JANGAN MAIN MERCUN!! Kalau tak nanti.....(ada gambar tentang akibat anda bermain mercun, beranikah anda melihatnya)

  .........HAA!! Tengok tu kan dah kena ikat dengan ayah sebab main mercun, tak boleh nak duduk diam! (maafkan saya kalau membuat anda terasa saspens)Main bunga api boleh....kot... Entahlah, boleh rasanya sebab saya ada bunga api, hehe~

Kenapa saya menasihatkan anda? Kerana...

 Semoga Aidilfitri anda pada tahun ini lebih meriah dan bermakna daripada tahun-tahun sebelumnya~

Jadilah Orang yang Asing

 Salam Ramadhan, hari ni nak beri tazkirah sikit. Tau, bosan tapi apa salahnya kan kalau kita timba sedikit ilmu. Nanti bolehlah tolong sebar-sebarkan buat saudara Islam yang lain. Kalau cerita pasal kehidupan kita ni je, hidup kita sementara je. Kadang-kadang tu kena ingat juga pada akhirat tu.

 Sebenarnya, berdasarkan tajuk entri di atas, jadi orang asing tu bukanlah bermakna menjadi seekor makhluk asing ataupun pelancong asing dan bukan juga pendatang asing tanpa izin. Maksudnya akan saya huraikan berpandukan hadis di bawah.

Islam bermula sebagai (sesuatu yang) asing dan akan kembali menjadi (sesuatu yang) asing seperti awalnya. Maka berbahagialah orang-orang yang asing itu.

Dan siapakah yang yang dimaksudkan dengan orang yang asing itu? Orang asing yang dimaksudkan itu ialah orang yang sentiasa berpegang kepada Al-Quran dan As-sunnah. Dan biasanya orang sebegini selalu diejek dan disisih, lagi-lagi pada zaman ini. BETUL TAK? Cubalah kita tengok zaman sekarang ni.Kalau orang buat baik kita cakap dia ni 'buang tebiat'. Nampak orang pakai tudung labuh dekat luar pun dianggap aneh. Kenapa? Kerana Islam sudah pun menjadi asing~

'Jadilah engkau di dunia laksana orang asing atau pengembara (yang sedang dalam perjalanan) ' - Bukhari.
