He or she is not an angel!

BismiLLAHirrahmanirrahim. Assalamualaikum warahmatuLLAHi wabarakatuh.  اللهم صل على سيدنا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه وسلم If I have to give an advice that I wish that will last forever, I would say, insyaALLAH, "Please treat a human like a human. He or she is not an angel!" You might reply, "Of course lah I know he's a human, what are you thinking? Pfft." "Geez, we can't even see the angels with rough eyes! How could I - ever - think that she's an angel from above?" My point is not about the physical that you are pointing at. It is not about what you see. It is about how you see. What are the differences? I'm not playing around with words. To begin with, did it crossed your mind how perfect someone's life is? How he was born in a rich family. How she never miss her usrah . How he scored in each examination with flying colours. How she knows how to cook perfectly. And you are so ...

With-out it.

BismiLLAHirrahmanirrahim. Assalamualaikum warahmatuLLAHi wabarakatuh.  اللهم صل على سيدنا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه وسلم Keputusan dibuat. Semalam, hari ketiga tanpa niqab. Ada yang bertanya, kenapa? Jawapan: ALLAHua'lam. :) Semalam dijemput iftar di rumah sahabat. Tak pernah berjumpa sebelum ini, tahu-tahu saja rumah diziarahi. Hampir saja membuat keputusan tidak pergi. Entah kenapa, hati diasak. "Pergilah, terima jemputan." Lalu kami pergi bersama satu-satunya ahli bayt yang masih di sini, Fatihah. BismiLLAHi masyaALLAH, sangat... mesra. Boleh saja bayangkan kami duduk sahaja melihat petahnya adik Zainab yang berumur 16 tahun itu menggamitkan suasana. Melihat kakak-kakak di sekitarnya sibuk mengatakan; "Apalah dengan Zainab ni." Kekeluargaan yang sebegitu... pelik. Duduk di atas sofa itu. Memandang ke kiri dan ke kanan. Yang kanan berbicara, dipandang. Yang kiri membalas, dipandang. Pelik. Lamanya tidak bertemu "ora...

A letter,

BismiLLAHirrahmanirrahim. Assalamualaikum warahmatuLLAHi wabarakatuh. Something, not by me , to ponder upon: "As for what follows, I am writing a letter to you in which I do not hold back right guidance and I do not omit counsel. It contains the praise of ALLAH Almighty and the adab  of HIS Messenger s.a.w. So consider that with your intellect, turn your eyes to it, and devote your hearing to it. Understand it with you intellect and apply your understanding. Do not allow your mind to let it slip away. It contains excellence in this world and the good reward of ALLAH Almighty in the Next. Remind yourself of the throes of death and its grief, and what will happen to you when it comes, and what you know follows after death: being presented before ALLAH Almighty, and then the Reckoning, and then remaining forever either in the Garden of the Fire. Prepare for it something to make the terrors of those sights and their distress easy for you. If you were to see...

'Amal during haidh [Ramadhan Edition]

BismiLLAHirrahmanirrahim. Assalamualaikum warahmatuLLAHi wabarakatuh. اللهم صل على سيدنا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه وسلم In addition to my previous seven substitutes (' Amal during haidh ); I would write insyaALLAH an addition of seven more. This is what one might find ease to do during this holy month of Ramadhan. I would try to make it vary from the previous but still in the circle of safeness, :) May ALLAH redha. Substitute number eight. See some movies! Okaay, this is like an eye-opener is it? Well, that is exactly what I intended to do. Once I went to the house of one of my Syeikh here. I met her daughter and that wasn't a very perfect timing -- she was cleaning the house. So I sat in the room to wait for her and she convinced me to watch a movie. A very nice, full-of-lessons movie. Not to mention, it is Islamic! Yeay! So I have to agree with this, a good two hours movie that fills your heart is better than taking two hours of nap because you just don...

BismiLLAHirrahmanirrahim. Assalamualaikum warahmatuLLAHi wabarakatuh. Kami tak kuat. Serius. Tak tipu. Angkat dua-dua tangan siap. Kami tak kuat. Entah, masih tak tercapai hasrat masa cuti. Bagi badan rehat lagi. Masih berehat. Kami minta DIA; dosa diampunkan. Ingat senang? Ingat senang nak rasa takut -- setakut-takutnya. Ingat senang nak rasa mengharap -- setinggi-tingginya? Tak. Tak senang bagi kami. Gila -banyak-dosa. Nak minta ampun. Macam mana? Serius. Macam mana? Tutup mata. ALLAH. "Ampunkan aku ya ALLAH." Lepas itu? Pandang kiri pandang kanan atas bawah. Kembali ke kehidupan asal. Tahu... ALLAH sayang. Tapi... Macam mana? "Apa aku nak buat?" bisik hati kecil yang tak seberapa nak berbisik. Jerit. "Apa aku nak buaaaaat?" Hm. Macam itu. Switch. It is not like I am the best person-ever. But; I have to do something! Move it move it. Let us move it move it. Eh. It is not like I can recite Quran 24 hours....
