Wind of Change

We were talking around the table while completing our assignment due at 4.00pm just now. ANd one of my friends suddenly mention, she is afraid of going back to MAlaysia. I was like, what she is thinking actually? And I asked her why? She mention, "alhamdulillah she slowly begin to change herself when she arrive here" So I asked back, "then what is the problem since you change to be a better person?" "I am afraid that the environment wont support me" *sigh* And the conversation goes on and end at that table.

But my head are still digesting all those input of recent conversation now. And many things are playing in my mind. Like why does people afraid to change? And now when they do change, they are afraid of what the society are thinking about them? Then what is the purpose of changing? Are you changing for the sake of the society or you yourself are willing to change? Question after question pops up in my mind.

Now I am sitting on my bed wandering what is the perfect answer for those entire question. Changing is a hard process and the hardest step is the first step you're going to make. That situation apply to everyone and I believe everyone have their own experience about it. But after you overcome that step, then everything will goes well when you believe in yourself.

But the process will become a lot easier when you have a good environment supporting you. And alhamdulillah that is what we feel here. And alhamdulliah with everyone help, the ship we are in now are sailing smoothly. And the ship is close to their next destination and we are about to reach there, our home sweet home. But some of the crews are afraid of walking down. They afraid if they cant suit themselves with their people and the surrounding they used to live in. But the other parts of the crew are counting their days of kissing their homeland and I am one of the crew.

Why do they have to feel afraid? That is your people, your own family and I believe they would support you in everything you do. Whats more when it is a good thing. They will feel proud with and I believe so. "But how about our old friend?" My dear friends, do you become friend just to please them with your attitude? Do you become friends so that you could be as famous as her? or are you becoming friend for the sake of that sacret relation you want to have? If you answer the first two options, maybe you are wrong and you are not sincere enough in the relationship you have. Friendship is divine relationship where each and everyone saling memperingati antara satu sama lain. When you have a good friend, then they will accept who you are. They will still be your friend no matter how you are and support in everything you do. That is when you have a good friend.

So my dear friend, ignore what people might think of you and dont let people turn your guard's down. But it is as long as you are on the right path. Try to change for the better and remember Allah is always with you.

[monolog] Rindu Syawal

Agh,

Air Mata Syawal
Siti Nurhaliza

rindu ini menerjah lagi,

mengetuk ruang hatiku ini,

meronta-ronta memanggilku pulang.

Satu persatu wajah kesayanganku menerjah minda,

Lipatan memori ku terbuka luas kini,

Segala-galanya seolah skrin lebar dihadapan mataku,

Semuanya begitu segar diingatan,

Rindu

Rindu sekali,

Tidak tertahan rasanya,

Menitis air mata ku terkenangkan pelukan hangat ayahanda dan bonda,

Menyalami permata hatiku satu persatu,

Semua wajah kusayang tersenyum lebar

Menghargai Aildilfitri kurniaan Ilahi

Menyelami erti kemaafan dan saling memaafkan,

Itulah kemuliaan Syawal

Air jernih itu menitis perlahan

Agh

Tinggalkan aku wahai rindu,

Pergi jauh dariku,

Pergi!!

Aku perlu kekuatan untuk semua ini,

Aku perlu focus menghadapi tanggungjawab ku sebagai pelajar,

Inilah pengorbananku,

Inilah tugasku

Namun, puas kucegah

Puas ku memujuk diri

Namun air mata ini mengalir lagi,

Wahai angin bayu, bawakn bisikan rindu ku ini,

Wahai angin sampaikan salam kemaafan ku buat mereka,

Wahai ayah bonda,

Ampu anakanda,

Tak dapat beraya bersama,

Jauh dari mata dekat di jiwa

Teguh kasih ku tidak berubah

True Meaning of Eid to You

Man and Imam

Now it has been 10 days past since Ramadhan started last week. How fast time flies and my class will restart again in 3 days. But that is not the main point here. I would like to talk bout a special solat, in a fact a very special one since we can only do it now, in Ramadhan yang penuh berkat ini.

It has been 10 days I perform my isya and terawikh prayer at my house with my friends (my house was use as a surau since the surau available here is too small to memuatkan all jemaah perempuan). But last night i have an opportunity of having it in a normal way, with a man imam. I kind of feeling happy bout that. Not that I am complaining that I dont like ti have a sister to be an imam, but i like it more if a man is the imam i followed. It kind of different I think. But I dont know the actual reason for that.

"Laki-laki itu pelindung bagi perempuan (isteri) kerana Allah telah melebihkan sebahagian mereka (lelaki) atas sebahagian yang lain (perempuan), dan kerana mereka (lelaki) telah memberi nafkah dari hartanya. Maka perempuan-perempuan yang soleh, adalah mereka yang taat (kepada Alla) dan menjaga diri ketika (suaminya) tidak ada, kerana Allah telah menjaga (mereka)...."[An-Nisa,4:34]

A man become an imam is kind of fitrah I think. We knew that man is a leader which is imam on the other words. We will feel more secure to have man in a group. That is what my mum would say, "it feels different if a man is around, even we knew that *%# is still small and we cant rely much on him, but it does make the difference because he is a man." Emm maybe, man is a real leader.

Than looking back at certain things, man will be much better that women in many aspects. For example, even cooking is sinonime with women, but still men will be better in it. Example, look at how many top women cheff we have in Malaysia? you would still have free fingers with no name on it (tak sampai 10 pun kot yang dikenali ramai), but for men we have Cheff Wan, Cheff Ismail, Cheff ........ and the list goes on. Still men is over women.

"Dan Janganlah kamu iri hati terhadap karunia yang telah dilebihkan Allah kepada sebahagian kamu atas sebahagian yg lain. (Karena) bagi lelaki ada bahagian dari apa yang mereka ushakan, dan bagi perempuan (pun) ada bahagian dari apa yang mereka usahakan. Mohonlah kepada Allah sebahagian dari karunia-Nya. Sungguh ALlah Maha Mengetahui segala sesuatu"[An-Nisa,4:32]

That is for women's regular routine and men is ahead, so whats more on men experts area. What more you can expect?? Especially engineering. The name to be put on list is infinity. Even in job perspects, when it comes to engineering stuff, people would prefer to hire men rather than women. They learn the same thing but they have different qualities especially in terms of scill and technique. I realise it when I study physics back in KMS. I was in a group with a guy hand few girls. But somehow when it comes to problem solving, he would see things more than us women did. Buy the time he get the real picture of the problems, my friend and I still garu kepala; wondering what the question is all about. Amazing isnt it? But yup guy have that ability of thinking and imagination.

Hebatnya manusia bergelar lelaki yang diciptakan ALlah. But back to al-quran dan Islam, Allah tidak membezakan antara lelaki dan perempuan. Cuma yang membezakan mereka adalah amal dan taqwa. Allah itu Maha Adil

"Barangsiapa mengerjakan kebajikan, baik lelaki mahupun perempuan dalam keadaan beriman, maka mereka pasti akan Kami berikan kepadanya kehidupan yang baik dan Kami Beri balasan dengan pahala yang lebih baik dari apa yang mereka telah kerjakan"[An-Nahl,16:97]

Ayat-Ayat CINTA

Just watched a great love story of Aishah and Fahri, Ayat-Ayat Cinta; an Indonesian movie adopted from a novel written by Habiburrahman. Ia berkisar tentang seorang pemuda Indonesia yang menuntut di Universiti Al-Azhar, Mesir. Boleh saya katakana bahawa lelaki ini cukup sifatnya yang menjadikan dirinya buruan para wanita di sana tanpa mengira bangsa dan agama. Dia kerap kali menerima surat-surat cinta dari wanita-wanita yang menyatakan hasrat mereka untuk menjadi wanita yang halal disisinya. Namun, Fahri masih mencari-cari jodohnya.

“Kita punya jodoh masing-masing yang dikurniakan Tuhan dari Hati.”

“Sungai Nil dan Mesir adalah jodoh”

Telah ditakdirkan tuhan bahawa lelaki yang baik adalah untuk perempuan yang baik. Jadi atas izinNya, Fahri telah dipertemukan dengan Aishah; seorang gadis Jerman yang kecantikan wajahnya dan senyum manisnya tersembunyi di balik purdahnya dan Fahri memilih unutk menikahinya. Bukan hanya kerna cinta, namun dia juga melakukannya demi mengelakkan fitnah dan memenuhi tuntutan agama. Disebalik kegembiraan yang mereka rasai, Maria seorang warga Spain yang sering menolong Fahri dalam suka dan duka, Nurul seorang gadis Indonesia yang telah lama menyimpan cinta dan Norra seorang warga Arab yang dibantu Fahri untuk bertemu keluarga kandungnya merasa terluka. Ketiga-tiga mereka mengalami depressi yang mendalam hingga rela menimbulkan fitnah hinga menyebabkan Fahri dipenjara sebagaimana kisah Yusuf a.s

“Jika kehidupan penjara lebih baik untukku, maka aku rela Ya Allah” (Nabi Yusuf)

manakala Maria dan Nurul kini hilang motivasi unutk hidup.

“Sungai Nil kini tandu kerna kehilangan mesirnya”

Namun sebagai seorang isteri, Aishah masih mempercayai suaminya dan menolong suami mencari bukti-bukti untuk mempertahankan maruah suaminya. Namun hati perempuan mana yang tidak terluka mengetahui bahawa suaminya digilai ramai. Dan demi memberi kehidupan kepada Maria yang kini terbaring lesu dan tidak henti mengucap nama suaminya, dia merelakan dirinya dimadukan. Fahri menolak keras kerna dia yakin Aishah adalah jodohnya, namun Aishah bertegas mengatakan bahawa jodoh adalah rahsia tuhan dan Fahri perlu menyelamatkan Maria. Kelembutan dan sifat keadilan Fahri kini menambat hati Maria dan dia mula merasai kekesalan. Kini dia tahu apa bezanya antara cinta dan keinginan untuk memiliki. Aishah sanggup berkongsi kasih untuk memberi kehidupan baru kepada suaminya meskipun hatinya sendiri terluka, sering mengigatkan suaminya akan Maria. Sunggguh Aishah adalah isteri mithali dan sekiranya kita ikhlas dalam setiap apa yang kita lakukan, kita pasti dapat menyentuh hati seseorang itu.

[monolog] Ramadhan di perantauan

rindu?

memang sangat rindu..

apa yang dirindui?

suasana berpuasa di malaysia..

seperti apa tu?

terawikh ramai2 di surau

lagi?

kesesakan bazar ramadhan

tu jeke?

keenakan makanan di malaysia..

nampak remeh jek,

namun apa sebenarnya yang dirindu?

emm sebenarnya rindu nak berterawikh bersama umi abah dan adik2 di surau..

emm sebenarnya rindu nak ke bazar bersama umi abah nana eti n fadil..

emm sebenarnya rindu nak makan masakan umi n mek

n yang paling penting berbuka bersama seluruh ahli keluarga..

tapi cuba renungkan sekali lagi

kenapa kita berpuasa?

untuk suasana puasa itu sendiri ataupun untuk mencari rendha Nya?

adakah kita berpuasa untuk mendapat keseronokan berkumpul bersama ahli keluarga semata?

nikmat ke bazar ramadhan yang hanya diadakan setahun sekali?

emm itu semua hanyalah nikmat sempena berpuasa..

"Orang yang berpuasa akan mendapat 2 kegembiraan; Ketika berbuka puasa dan ketika bertemu dengan tuhannya" [Hadis sahih riwayat Bukhari, Muslim, Ibn MAjah dan NAsai]

sebenar-benarnya kita berpuasa kerana Allah kan?

untuk mendapat redhaNya kan?

untuk merebut ganjaran Ilahi kan?

"Sesiapa yang berpuasa dalam bulan Ramadhan dalam keimanan dan pengharapan, maka akan diampunkan dosa-dosa yang lalu" [hadis sahih: Riwayat al-Bukhari #38 dan Muslim #1817]

jadi lupakan dulu buat sementara waktu..

berlumba-lumbalah kita merebut bulan bonus ini..

dimana pahala amalan wajib dilipat gandakan 70x..

dan pahala amalan sunat disamakn dgn pahala ibadah wajib..

jadi rebutlah ganjaran ini..

Pergi Tak Kembali

Salam Ramadhan
