Lama dah tak tulis blog

Assalaamualaikum wbt,
Alhamdulillah, akhirnya sempat jugak saya menulis dalam blog ni, dengan izin Allah semata-mata.

Semakin hari umur makin pendek, walaupun orang kata umur meningkat...tapi sebenarnya yang meningkat ialah masa yang TELAH dihabiskan di dunia. Sebaliknya yang baki semakin hari semakin berkurangan.

Kalau kita kata nak ke oversea, mesti kita prepare betul-betul kan?
Beg, pakaian, duit...
Tu semua kena bawak untuk dibuat bekal ke sana. Kalau musim sejuk, kenalah bawa yang tebal-tebal sikit bajunya kan.

Tapi kalau dah sampai airport, terlupa nak bawak passport, kan payah?
Itu pon kira OK lagi sebab paling teruk pon miss flite, then boleh tunggu the next one.

Namun, apabila tiba sakaratul maut, maka tiada lagi second change, next flite dah takde. Maka kalau terlupa bawa passport ke shurga tu, merana lah selama-lamanya.

"Lupa?"

Alasan kita, kita lupa. Tapi Allah beri ingatan kepada kita setiap hari, malah setiap ketika. Hari-hari kita tengok kebesaran Allah. Malam tukar jadi siang, siang tukar jadi malam. Bulan berubah-ubah fasa. Musim saban tahun berubah. Hujuan yang turun menyuburi bumi. Apakah ini bukan peringatan atau petanda-petanda daripada Allah??

Ya, untuk orang-orang yang ulil-albaab.

Kalau kita kata takde masa untuk kenal Allah kerana sibuk cari rezeki, then ingatlah Allah tak pernah minta rezeki dari kita, bahkan Allah-lah yang memberi rezeki kepada hamba-hambaNya. Dia telah jadikan rezeki ni tanggungjawab Nya sendiri. Jadi masa yang Allah beri adalah exclusive 100% untuk mentaati perintah Allah. Pergi kerja pon bukan kerana nak duit, tetapi untuk taat perintah Allah.

Apa sahaja alasan yang hari ini orang beri untuk tidak taat, semuanya Allah telah address dalam al-Quran.

Jadi kita kena banyak-banyak bertaubat kerana kelalaian kita terhadap Yang Paling Banyak Berjasa kepada kita, Rabb kita, Allah.

'My' ti83 Plus

In Kolej MARA Banting IB World School, we were required to use graphic scientific calculator. The model that we use was ti83 plus.


It's more sophisticated than the one that we use in secondary school, of course, and has more features. Statistical functions are included. 3D graph functionality can be add-on to the device. Plus! We can even play games and draw pictures with it.

Because all of us need to have one, most of my friends bought it from the college. Since the college bought the calculator in bulk, we get it at a bargain price of only around RM500. However, the good news is I need not buy it because I used Kak Ngah's calculator which was inherited to Kak Ude and then to me...and I kept that RM500 calculator allowance from MARA for my pocket money.

To make the story short, I kept this lovely calculator with me to Sheffield during my University years. I almost sold it, because we cant use this device in the exam hall plus it has a high demand in the UK and the price did not drop.

Then, I shipped it back to Malaysia along with other stuffs after graduating.

A few months later, I went back to see my stuff and I found the calculator missing, thinking that it must have been left in Sheffield or somewhere in between Malaysia and UK. Huhu. To my dissappointment, I saw it in Kak Ngah's possession.

I whispered to myself,

"Why did Kak Ngah took the calculator from me without even informing?, Ooh maybe she wanted to 'borrow' it for a while."

After a few seconds of thought, then I realised. I recalled that the calculator is not really mine. It is still her belonging. Years after years possessing the lovely computing machine, I felt like the calculator is mine, eventhough it isn't so. My calculator, now it's time to say goodbye...

Then, when I think deeper that actually one day, Allah will take all the things that I posses, including the best machine I ever had, my own body. If I still think that this is mine, of course I will feel hurt. But yeah, the reality is that everything that I posses is not mine, it is Allah's. We have no choice but accept this truth. It is His right to give to whoever He likes and take it back or withhold from whoever He likes.

So, I learnt that we should not be so sad if we lose something in this life, because everything is from Allah, and it is just right for Him to take it back. Everytime we get something or we lose something, it is actually a test from ALlah to see whether we a true to Him or not. Possesing something or not does not relate to our status in front of Allah except taqwa.

Wallahu 'alam.

Surau yang Sunyi

Semalam surau tu sunyi,
tidak berpenghuni

Azan tidak lagi didengari,
muazzin nya mana pergi?

Keadaan surau, menyebakkan hati.
adakah penduduk sudah mati?
atau sinar iman yang tiada lagi.

Ayuh, bangun lawanlah nafsu dalam diri.
tegakkanlah tiang deeni.
mulakanlah dengan dakwah Nabi.
agar seruan tidak berhenti di sini...
