Mulut

Mungkin rasa pelik kan? Tiba-tiba je tajuk mulut. Tapi, memang rasa terpanggil nak berbicara tentang mulut malam ini. Kenapa? Sebab mungkin sejak kebelakangan ini dan mungkin juga lebih tepat hari ini, saya banyak sangat tersinggung dengan kata-kata orang sekeliling. Orang selalu pesan, jaga hati, jaga mata. Tapi kenapa kurang yang pesan untuk jaga mulut? Walhal, pepatah Melayu sendiri pernah menyebut, "Kerana Mulut Badan Binasa" Hanya dengan membuka mulut dan mengeluarkan kata-kata yang mungkin tak ditapis dahulu, boleh menyebabkan badan binasa. Bukankah itu sesuatu yang menakutkan? Jadi malam ini, rasa tergerak hati untuk mengutarakan beberapa perkara;

Pertama
Apabila tidak menyukai sesuatu makanan. Kenapa mesti mencaci? Kenapa mesti mengutuk,
`Makanan ni tak sedap la' 
 `Eiiii tak suka la. pelik tau. tak sedap langsung makan makanan tu masak dengan macam tu' 

Abu Hurayra said; The Messenger of Allah S.A.W NEVER CRITICISED FOOD. If he liked it, he ate it, and if he DISLIKED it,he LEFT it. [Agreed upon]

Kedua
Ketika bergurau. Saya rasa masing-masing tahu adat dan etika bergurau. Janganlah bergurau sampai keterlaluan. Tak kisah lah kita dah kamceng dengan dia ke, dia mak ayah kita ke, kawan rapat sejak kecil ke, sepupu-sepapat ke. Still, kita masih ada adab dan etika ketika bergurau. Bukan nak kata tidak boleh bergurau atau bersuka ria dan bergelak ketawa tapi, just.... MIND YOUR WORDS!  Hurting someone's feeling is like throwing a stone in the sea. You can no longer see the stones but you'll never know how deep it may goes. BE CAREFUL, YOUR WORDS CAN KILL.

Ketiga
Melabel orang atau bahasa mudahnya, being judgemental. Sudah-sudahlah melabel orang itu jemaah ini, orang tu tak pergi kelas agama, orang itu pakai ketat, orang itu selalu keluar dating,orang itu selalu ponteng kelas. Sudahlah, sudah. After all, we are ALL HUMAN BEINGS WITH THOUSANDS AND MILLIONS OF FLAWS! PLEASE BEAR THAT IN MIND! Setiap manusia punya kelemahan dan kekurangan masing-masing. Buanglah sifat suka mencari kelemahan orang, sebaliknya marilah kita bersama-sama untuk mencari permata atau kelebihan dalam diri setiap individu. Selagi mana seseorang itu masih boleh membawa kita untuk mendekatkan diri kepada Tuhan, dia tidak layak untuk di judge. Tambahan pula, SIAPA KITA untuk melabel? Tuhan? Nauzubillah.

Suka saya ingin ingatkan, post ini tidak ada niat langsung untuk menghentam mana-mana pihak. Sekadar meluahkan apa yang terpendam di lubuk hati setelah sekian lama. Seperkara lagi, saya tidak kata yang saya perfect untuk tegur orang atau tulis tentang isu ini. Mungkin, saya sendiri juga pernah atau sedang atau bakal melakukannya pada masa akan datang. Jadi, marilah kita sama-sama saling mengingatkan dan berpesan-pesan antara satu sama lain.

`SPEAK GOOD OR REMAIN SILENT'

`A TONGUE HAS NO BONE, BUT IT IS ALREADY ENOUGH TO BREAK A HEART'

Of Growing Faces and Age.



                                                               










All these pictures were taken in KLIA before departing to Egypt each year, when I came back for summer. How reluctant I am to come back, only Allah knows. But I guess He had finally gave me the answer when I found this verse:

' Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home), except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame) and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives, Allah has preferred in grades those who strive hard and fight with their wealth and their lives to those who sit (at home) To each, Allah has promised good (Paradise) but Allah has preferred those who strive hard and fight, to those who sit (at home) by a huge reward.' 
[An-Nisa': 95]

Studying in the Cause of Allah is also considered as Jihad isn't? May Allah reward us with Jannah. Ameen.


*Been through a rough phase for the past few weeks as a Third Year Medical Student. Sometimes, I do ponder; can I survive for another couple of years here? Ya Allah, give me strength and do increase my Imaan because I know with every difficulty there is relief.

'Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets reward for that (good) which he has earned, and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned. 'Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error, our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us ( Jews and Christians); our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Pardon us and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Maula (Patron, Supporter and Protector) and give us victory over the disbelieving people'
[Al-Baqarah:286]

Exam of Endocrine System is coming in less than one week. Rabbbuna Yussahil everyone!

Rejuvenate.

Assalamualaikum.


Back again here, finally. Rejuvenating everything; the blog's layout ( Kudos to the big sister, Along for making this super dull gloomy blog more lively again), the spirit,the soul and most importantly, the Iman. Few months left as a Sophomore as a medical student here in Alexandria,InshaAllah. Time flies so fast that I could not even remember what I have been doing during this year when finally I'm reaching towards its end already. That means, few more days towards final examination, and soon towards Malaysia,Biiznillah. So basically, nothing much to share here but I just want to share some of my 10 cents regarding examination. What I've been observing so far, people will always stressed out whenever it comes to examination ( since Alexandria University is always having examination compared to others here in Egypt). 


Some of my prior observations during examination week:


-Exam Fever Campaign will be launched, where majority of us will change their default picture on the social network to whatever related exam stuffs.


-We ( because it happens also to me sometimes) are so stressed out thinking about tons of modules to be digested and we tend to forget our obligations towards the One who is actually going to grant us success or failure. Or maybe, we become closer towards Him during this time only. Eg: Waking up for Tahajjud, performing the Solat Sunat, and reading the Al- Quran more frequent than other days. Why? It is so hard for us to be Istiqamah,isn't it?  This is something for us to ponder upon.


-Maybe we become closer towards the Creator but how about our obligations towards our circle of friends? Do we really care about them during these days or we just go focusing merely on our books?


'Indignity is put over them wherever they may be, except when under a covenant (of protection) from Allah, and a covenant from men; they have drawn on themselves the Wrath of Allah and destitution is put over them'....( 3:112)
Or in a simple words, I shall say Habluminallah, Habluminnas.


Quoting several friend's status on facebook:

~Sahabat-sahabat, JANGAN kita menjadi HAMBA EXAM.
~Study untuk exam atau study kerana Allah? Sebenarnya, tidak timbul pertembungan antara kedua-dua perkara tersebut kerana EXAM adalah KEPERLUAN, AKHIRAT ialah TUJUAN.


So, it is well said right? So examination is actually a part of our life. For me personally, the true examination is during the Day of Judgement; Jannah or Hell (Nauzubillah) What is far most important is, we should strive, and give our best and leave the rest up to Him.


Tawwakul is not an act of the limbs—it is an act of the heart.  And so while the limbs are striving hard, the heart is completely reliant on Allah.  This means whatever the outcome of the limbs’ striving, the heart will be completely satisfied, knowing that it is the flawless decision of Allah.
But in order to reach this level, one must hold on to hope, strive with the limbs, and let go with the heart- Yasmin Mogahed. 
For complete story, you can read it here.
And that shall end my dull boring post. Till then! Let us together muhasabah ourselves towards a better Moslem inshaAllah :)

Missing them and memories beyond it :')

10 Things God Won't Ask






God won't ask what kind of car you drove,but will ask how many people you drove who didn't have transportation.

God won't ask the square footage of your house, but will ask how many people you welcomed into your home.




God won't ask about the fancy clothes you had in your closet, but will ask how many of those clothes helped the needy.



God won't ask about your social status, but will ask what kind of class you displayed.



God won't ask how many possessions you had, but will ask if they dictated your life.





God won't ask what your highest salary was, but will still ask if you compromised your character to obtain that salary.


God won't ask how much overtime you worked, but still ask if you worked overtime for your family and loved ones.


God won't ask how many promotions you received, but will ask how you promoted others.



God won't ask what your job tittle was, but still ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability.



God won't ask how many friends you had, but will ask how many people to whom you were a true friend.
