Just friends or more?

bismillah..in the name of Allah...

There are friends whom we put our trust in, sharing all of the secrets till there are no boundaries in between...

There are friends that we enjoy hanging out with, spending time doing silly stuff together..

There are friends who make us laugh every single minute, that we can't imagine how our lives would be without them around..

There are friends who could be our crying shoulders, sweeping away all of our sadness..always being there by our sides..

There are friends who would listen to all of our boring stories,even if it takes all night long..

There are friends who can inspire us.. in any thing we do...

There are friends who would offer us the words of wisdom whenever we need them..

YET...

They are also friends who would leave us when they have found other companies.

There are friends who wont accept our weaknesses..

There are friends who just pretend to be our friends for their own good...

There are friends who just don't like to listen to our words and take us for granted..

They are friends who neglect us when we can't reach up to their expectation..


_________


OR in spite all that, without noticing it, we are the ones who do those stuff otherwise..

Or..there are no friends at all.. discovering that we have no true friends from the beginning..

_______________________________________________________________________


No matter what type of friends you have..the ones who can keep your secrets...the ones who can make funny jokes you love...the ones who you feel safe to be around with... just don't forget our one and only best friend whenever we are in great happiness or in deep sorrow..for he is the best among all...and He is...ALLAH...



if you ever found the best companion through out your journey,
then He should be Allah...







"...and We are nearer to him than his jugular vein."
"...dan Kami lebih dekat kepadanya daripada urat lehernya"

Shame shame!

=Memang hairan orang yang
dapat hidup sampai Ramadan ini, tetapi dosa dia tidak diampun.

=It is surprising that people can live up to Ramadan, but their sins are not forgiven

It's a shame to treat the month(ramadhan) just like any others..
Ya ayyuhal mukminun..grab the opportunity! It's the only month that you can perform solat terawih..the only month which there is laylatul-qadr..

I saw people performing their prayers.. I envy them.. to see their tears running down..when there wasnt enough air to breathe to say their readings out clearly,thinking of the commited sins..

Frustating enough to see when it was so easy for them to get "the feel" during their solah.. how they "khusyuk" and how they felt very deeply remorse...when myself couldnt reach that far..alhamdulillah..it's hard yet I am trying..It's ok..innallaha ma as sobirin..giving up doesnt suit muslims anyway..

We dont get ramadhan all years..it comes only once/year..so dont waste it!increase what you have to increase! If let's say last year, you had managed to perform 8 rakaat of terawih.. maybe this year you can add more to it..maybe 10 for the first five nights..then 12 for the next ones..and in the end you'll find that you' ve done 20 in the last nights of ramadhan..never mind take it slowly..if 20 rakaats are too many..do what u can.. if last year, u could read 4 pages of Quran after each prayer..try to add one more.. biar sedikit tapi istiqamah..

amalan fardhu di dalam bulan tersebut(ramadhan) digandakan pahalanya sebanyak 70 kali ganda

go and say your prayers..doa all day long...especially during laylatul qadr...when making doa,people might wish to get big money.. to get a raise.. to get beautiful wives even they already have 3.. but the most beautiful wish is forgiveness..what else do we wish for when forgiveness by Allah is superly enough..

Nabi bertanya kepada Aisyah semula "Apakah kamu nak buat bila kamu bertemu dengan malam Qadar?". Aisyah menjawab "Saya tak tahu" kemudian Aisyah bertanya lagi "Apakah yang patut saya buat bila bertemu dengan malam Qadar itu?". Nabi berkata kepada Aisyah "Malam itu malam yang amat baik untuk beramal dimalamnya dan amat mudah dimakbul Allah doanya". Aisyah bertanya lagi "Apakah doa yang paling baik untuk aku berdoa pada malam itu?" Nabi jawab "Kalau kamu sempat berjumpa dan mengetahui malam itu ialah malam Qadar berdoalah "Allah humma innaka 'afuu 'un karimun tuhib bul 'af wa fa' fu 'anni" (maknanya Ya Allah, Kamulah Tuhan yang sangat suka mengampun, ampunkanlah dosa-dosa saya).

get close to Allah..the one who created us..who gave us lives.. too little the times we come back to Him.. yet spending more time to ps2, internet, tv,firends...etc knowing they would not even help us in the day of judgement.. those who havent died(huu..)make dates with Allah..He's infinitely there for us..

reflect..

Faya ‘ajaban liman adraka ramada na fala yukh farulah:hairan orang yang dapat hidup sampai Ramadan ini, tetapi dosa dia tidak diampun

so..if you still treat Ramadhan like any other months.. no effort to do more ibadahs.. still not decreasing lagho stuff.. feeling no regrets as one of the days of Ramadhan passes you by... SHAME on U!
(this post is especially for the one who wrote it..)

THE BLUE AND THE YELLOW

Have a dream...a “fantasy-oid” one..

It was a WAR!!!The battle between two tribes…but here there were no people..They were robots! Imagine two large groups of robots like those from the transformers were fighting in a battlefield..one tribe was of the blue robots and the other was of the yellow ones..

With super high technology used on the equipments and the gadgets..They brutally fought one another to define the men of victory…I couldn’t remember which side of the robots but let’s just assume that the blue robots were taking control of the war... they vanished the yellow robots one by one..the yellow had become weak..and they were finally defeated.. so these blue warriors eventually have the power over the buildings and towers of the yellow ones..they invaded the castle and started to settle there.. as pictured, the blue were having their great time in the castle..they were having fun with drinks.. and some were having their break..lying down..

After some time, the blue robots went to take ablution(wudu’)..oh yeah they were muslims.. so they went to the ablution room..at the very moment of the ablution..Very suddenly, the blue robots surprisingly were attacked! An ambush by the left yellow robots.. The blue robots were badly cornered.

And the next thing I knew, there was the scene where all of the locals were running haphazardly, as the city was falling down into pieces..The wind was striking very hard, the sand was whirling endlessly. And out of the blue, I saw myself was running with my friends too... (we were among the locals) and my friends, one by one disappeared through the whirling sand. And in the end I was all alone by myself. I kept on running real fast, trying to outrun the tornado while there’s a BIGGG lion behind, speeding towards me.

Alone, I dashed into a mosque I think..Climbing to the top floor and the lion was still there behind, until I reached some kind of a corridor where the ground floor exactly below it, located a huge pool. No clue where to go next. I turned around, the lion was still running fast towards me. I stood there, as if waiting for it to come nearer…And when it was about to pounce me, suddenly I bend myself, trying to escape, and there was the lion flying beyond the corridor and finally it fell down, heading itself down into the pool. Booosh… I was saved.

And then, there was me suddenly outside alone in the desert..After the war..Me and the silent sand, no buildings no people..then I saw another big mosque like that in Turkey, only it’s larger. I headed towards it, and pulled open the huge door. I jerked my head inside, there I saw an old woman, in her telekung sitting with her back facing me. Then she turned her head around. She looked at me..And she smiled…-end-

Now as usual,the time for a conclusion..

The blue robots after they've won the war..They were having fun, carried away by victory.. why didn’t they at least sujud syukur to express their syukur to Allah and worse, they perform solah LATER after that..they are neglectful of their solah..

Maka kecelakaanlah bagi orang-orang yang shalat. (yaitu) orang-orang yang lalai dari shalatnya (Al-ma'un : 4-5)

The true victory is not merely by conquering something..the true victory is to be able to give thanks to Allah whether we have achieved something or even when we lose..(kpd diri sndiri dan kwn2 yang menanti result final.. terima dgn bersyukur whatever our results may be..huu)

Dan apabila Kami berikan kesenangan kepada manusia niscaya berpalinglah dia; dan membelakang dengan sikap yang sombong; dan apabila dia ditimpa kesusahan niscaya dia berputus asa. (Al-israa' :83)

And the next point, in the end..in my dream..I was the only one saved from all of the people..and finally, I met with an old woman, indicating that there was a new population..with new people… perhaps the old woman wearing her telekung shows that the people from the new population are much better than the previous..this ayah might suit it..

Jika Dia menghendaki, niscaya Dia memusnahkan kamu dan mendatangkan makhluk yang baru (untuk menggantikan kamu). (Faathir :16)

Never let duniawi carry you away..make you away from Allah..as students, it's true we are always showered by assignments..but don't forget the holliest assignment of all..is to present your solah to Allah..5 times a day

Sesungguhnya beruntunglah orang yang membersihkan diri (dengan beriman),dan dia ingat nama Tuhannya, lalu dia sembahyang. (Al-a'laa:14-15)

not just a journey II

So during that 10/11/12 years..they were the years where Muhammad taught them about tauhid, about akidah…to believe in Allah..to sharpen their faith…there were no solat,fasting or zakat yet…its all bout aqidah..trust in Allah. If i ask u…do u belive in Allah?do u love Allah?n i assume u would go like “yeah..of coz..I DO BELIVE IN ALLAH N I LOVE ALLAH” but words alone r just not enuogh…its ur ACTION!…

so only after israk n mikraj,muslims are required to do their solah 5 times a day,this will prove that if YOU LOVE ALLAH,U SHOULD DO WHATEVER HE ASKS.Allah had ordered us muslims through Muhammad to perform solah. People with strong aqidah insyaAllah have no problem in doing so.see the point y akidah is so important?so that u belive in Allah n wutever He says even it s not acceptable by the human brains(after all,He's the one who created our brains..)and when u have this strong aqidah,u have the strength to do what ur told to do so by Allah. solat, puasa, zakat, haji, etc(without whining).insyaAllah.so our aqidah,..keep it straight.

What's the significance of the story?it can be applied in raising up our children..for the 1st 10/11/12 years u fertilize akidah in them n then after 10/11/12 years..u ask them to solat!wajib fardhu!ok.. it doesnt mean that before 10/11/12 years old,u dont have to expose the way of how to perform solah to ur children..imagine..we taught our kids bout knowing Allah,tauhid,akidah,etc when they were small..n when they reach 10/11/12..we say “ok dollah(eg,the child’s name is dollah..)go and pray!n of coz dollah ll go like “erm???(with super duper raised left eyebrow)”.well..dollah doesnt kno how 2 read Al-fatihah! Y? bcoz the parents didn’t teach him bfore.

ever heard that when our child reaches 7 years old, we should start teaching him/her how to perform solah..when the child reaches 10 years old and he/she doesn’t perform solah, we shall give him/her a stroke or 2,etc(i dont know how many) so we have to teach them from the start when they are still small..it’s ok when they reach 2,3 years old, we ask them to perform solat together…even they ll do dramatic actions,wutsoever…such as sujud ala2 suparman..sujud with unlifted hips..it’s ok..they r children..take them easy..they ll be ok time by time..as long as u teach them right…,insyaAllah

Last but not least..what are our roles?

• Believe israk n mikraj with all our heart…

• Raise ur kids properly…its important to strengthen them 1^st with aqidah..(huhu..parenting class)

• never feel lazy in doing ibadah…especially in performing solah…solah is different from other ibadah in that the order of solah was received directly by Rasulullah SAW from Allah SWT during israk and mikraj and not like any others that had involved Jibril as a messenger. After all,the 1^st thing that will be judged from us during the judgement day is our solah..therefore,perform ur solahs.. never get lazy..n try ur best to be khusyuk…n solahs r best done if they r done on time!

• israk n mikraj happened in the year of sorrow(thn kesedihan)..which when the persons who were most dear to him, Khadijah and Abu Thalib had passed away..n then after that, Allah had ordered Muhammad to confront Him through the journey of israk mikraj.this shows that..u should always turn to Allah if u have any problems...no matter how small or how big the problem u face, it’s Allah u should cry to..
  

ALLAH KNOWS BEST n HE KNOWS WHAT IS GOOD FOR U…every difficulty comes from him,so does every solution…seek help from Him..

not just a journey I

this time..this story is quite long..so i decided to divide it into 2 parts..

so here it goes..d 1st part..

We know that Rejab is the month of our prophet,Muhammad SAW while Syaaban is the month of Allah whereas Ramadhan is our month (the month ofthe ummah)…as u guys are very well aware,israk n mikraj took place on 27th of rejab, the journey started fromMakkah to Masjidil aqsa,n from masjidil aqsa to the 7th heavens n then back again to earth.Imagine,this whole journey of israk mikraj happenedin not just a single night,,it was less than a night!

this incident has wrecked havoc in Makkah.The people were bz “discussing” bout the incident,they thought it just didn’t make any sense,there were people @ that time were like thinking how did this guy travel from makkah to masjidil aqsa n from there up to the 7th heavens in less than a night?…just How?? have we forgotten?Allah Al-Muqtadir..Maha Berkuasa..Isn't it His will to do anything at anytime at anywhere He wants to..Kun fayakun..if He wants to make it less than a night,yeah..goahead..Allah the Almighty..He can do WUTEVER HE WILLS or He wants to do it in less than a minute..is it possible? again, Allah the Almighty..do we have to doubt that?Do we have to doubt Allah,the MOST GLORIOUS,to Him is our return.HE can do anything…

“MahaSuci Allah yang telah menjalankan hamba-Nya (Muhammad) pada malam hari dariMasjidil-Haraam (di Mekah) ke Masjidil-Aqsa (di Palestin), yang Kami berkatisekelilingnya, untuk memperlihatkan kepadanya tanda-tanda (kekuasaan dankebesaran) Kami. Sesungguhnya Allah jualah yang Maha Mendengar lagi MahaMengetahui.”(Q.S. Al-Israa’: 1).
Allah Himself had said it in the Quran..

People who think with their logic minds will not believe israk and mikraj..whereas those who believe with their faiths (aqidah)unquestionably believe israk mikraj,we ourselves are very2 aware that human minds are limited,meaning that we can only think within certain limit..Or in other words, we can only accept things that are logic nwe doubt things which are non-sense.it's people’s mind.it’s supposed to be like that,eg..i tell u..i went to Sweden by a boat and on my way i bumped into a group of ikan bilis n they were doing a belle dancing then i reached Sweden in 3 minutes only..will u buy that? nope..of coz u wont..thats y people cannot accept that israk n mikraj took about less that 1 night when they think with their human minds..but people can accept it so when they think bout it and believe it with aqidah.The non-believers of that time had a good time mocking and laughing at theProphet s.a.w and Muslims, while some Muslims had a hard time coming to termswith the story. It has been reported some even become backslidden coz theydidn’t believe..their human brains couldn’t take it

But at that time, Abu Bakar became the first Muslim who stepped out, and publicly proclaimed his trust in the word of the Prophet s.a.w, By doing it, heproved himself to a be a true Muslim, for a true Muslim believe in the Prophets.a.w and acknowledge that the mind is limited, and there are things happeningthat are beyond the human imagination…perhaps,we can be sidq and brave like him,insyaAllah.Ok..israk n mikraj took place about after 12/11/10th years of prophecy of Nabi Muhammad SAW…(theyare many opinions bout it)so..ok think…Wasn’t it after israk n mikraj,that we were obliged toperform solat?n 2 freshen up ur mind,israk n mikraj happened after 10/11/12th year s of prophecy,so wut happened during that 10/11/12 years,before israk and mikraj took place?didnt they do solat???no zakat?haji?fasting??

short dream

al kisah mimpiku–here it goes.., i was still a "school student"..n i was kind of superbusy..In fact, all of the students were like busy with themselves, they were working on their science projects..n some were like in a hurry to catch something..n some were like walking fast…while the others were doing something else.The school was in a "busy" state where the students were running here and there…

and there i was heading to go to the next class..(i think so),and i was pictured in my dream, in a super rush to go somewhere(maybe to the class)..and at that time, i was walking with my friend, and i was walking real fast and..on my way before reaching the place i intended to go, all of a sudden, my hand was grabbed by someone, i turned around, and i saw the person that was holding my hand tightly was my Ustazah…and she whispered something to me..she said.. "Go and perform your solah first”~end~

that was all that i could remember.. it seems simple though, but i feel something whenever i think bout this dream…i assure u feel something too,ryto?But anyway, i am still gonna make a conclusion..

The meaning "Go and perform your solah FIRST” explains to me that no matter how super busy we get, , it doesn’t mean that we have to exclude Allah just like that. Just take 5 minutes of your time to perform your solah and then go back to your work,insyaAllah, your day will be blessed and He will make your work later on much easier for you..just 5 minutes…that’s all.And the scene(cewwah) where Ustazah was holding my hand shows that we need to always remind one and another(amar maaruf nahi munkar) coz we humans are weak and always forgetful… i hope we are and always be among the solihin…and really hope insyaAllah we will always remind each other.

"No one of you shall become a true believer until he desires for his brother what he desires for himself"
