EnjOY Ur TiMe

Watching television it’s not a big thing..
But if U started to obsess with it and find Urself spending all day long in front of that 'one-eye-box' or even worse, U postpone Ur prayer so that U can watch the whole shows..
Yes, U should be worried..
And if U like to listen to the radio, music- I think it is still fine
But again, if u find Urself stuck to the music and Ur day would not be perfect without tuning the radio, U sing the song more U recite the Qur'an
then U've got a problem dude..

Why-Why-Why-Why-Why-Why-Why???

Here's the reason

Say: If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your wives, your kindred, the wealth that you have gained, the commerce in which you fear a decline, and the dwellings in which you delight ... are dearer to you than Allah and His Messenger, and striving hard and fighting in His Cause , then wait until Allah brings about His Decision (torment). And Allah guides not the people who are Al-Fasiqun (the rebellious, disobedient to Allah).

I am not an expert in explaining the ‘ayah’ of Qur’an, but at least from this verse, we know that Allah s.w.t hates those who put other things on top over HIM and His Messenger, Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. Especially for those whose on purpose leave all the Allah’s commands just only for the worldly matters. Naudhubillah

Logically, if U put more priority on watching television and due to afraid of missing the important parts in the shows, U take ablution faster and start to pray like a sprinter in the middle of Olympic race, how can U gain the khushu’ while in praying?

Sometimes we rather to try our best to wake up at 2-3 a.m just to watch tv-football for example? But when it comes to tahajjud prayer, it seems like there’s a big stone over our body causing us hard to be awake and perform the night prayer..Sounds familiar? I used to be in that situation too. *sigh*

Maybe we can ask questions to ourselves..

What is our priority now? worldly satisfaction or Allah's pleasure?

What is our aim in life? success in world life or success in both dunya wa akhirah

Is it enough to pray five times daily, but never try to do any other deeds to enhance our Eman?

When we are being asked by Allah s.w.t about how we spent our time in our life time, can we answer it proudly or in shamefully?

Don't get me wrong, I am not forbidding U from doing all the stuff that U like, but I really really want U to remember that do not put those things over Allah and Rasul s.a.w

When it comes to prayer, perform it sincerely and of course, ON TIME! =D

Put Al-Qur'an as Ur music MOST of da time and 'Sing' it regularly..

Use Ur time well..Its too precious to let it go just like that

U still can have fun in Ur life without putting Islam behind ur back

Because we wanna be A FULL TIME MUSLIM

So, breath-walk-eat-and enjoy Ur time like a real Muslim!

InshaAllah, U may find the peace in Ur heart and Ur day will not be wasted anymore ^_^

Proud To be Muslims

when people said that Muslim's women do not know
how to dress up

or what they so called dress-to-kill,
they are totally wrong.
If U see us wearing XXL shirts with large scarf covering our hair,
it doesn't mean that we are living in the cave-
do not know how to wear jeans,mini skirt and etc.
and it's not like
We don't wear hijab because we don't know how to show off my figure

We still have our body,
We're just not letting everyone see it
And don't feel sorry for us

No one force us to do so and please take note,
we are proud of what we are wearing right now!
our hijab, abaya(robes), or even our niqab
it's symbolize our beautiful way of life..

When we rejecting intermingle between guys and girls-couples
it is not because we are anti-social,
or
when we refuse to do physical contact with guys
(holding hands, hugging etc..)
We have our own solid reason of doing that..
it is because we are protecting of ourselves..
from whom?
the devil of course!;)
We are not that cheap
We don't simply give the 'unauthorized' people especially
guys to see more than they only need to see
and of course, as a woman
we do not want anyone other than our husband
to touch us even for an inch!!
Again, we are not cheap.
We are not like those cheap things that people can touch easily
and throw away when they feel like want to do that
we deserve more than that
and
for your information,
We-Muslim's women are precious
our body are sacred and
we are far more precious than diamond and pearl
But..
the ultimate reason for every single of our action is
to please our Rabb, Allah s.w.t
He taught us in Qur'an on how to behave,
what is the muslims dress code
and that actually make us different from non-muslims
and we are proud to fulfill His commandment
to strive for His jannah!
inshaAllah..
sO my sisters in Islam,
please take care of yourself
cover your aurah
fulfill your obligation in Islam
After all, we are Muslims
aren't U??
this world, is nothing
being praised from people is meaningless
couples-mini skirt-clubbing-5 inch make up
these things won't save U in grave
won't defend U when Munkar and Nankir come to interview us later
But, our deeds- good deeds is the one that is counted
and not to forget, oUr beloved Prophet
Rasulullah s.a.w will be our savior in Mashar
So, during that time, how'd you expect Prophet s.a.w to recognize us
if we are not following his teachings and not
behaving like Muslims now??
w.A.k.e. U.p and be r.E.a.L.i.s.t.I.c now
it is true that
tomorrow never die
we are still young, enjoy this life
and we can repent when we turn to 30s-40s..
But sisters,
nobody knows
nobody can give 100% guarantee
that whether
tomorrow,
we are still breathing in this world or
lying in the grave...

Take Care of Ur Heart

Hey, have U ever heard that when facing a problem or dilemma, ask Ur heart which path U should take? what is the best choice to pick?
But..
have U ever heard about this quote?
Ikutkan HATI, kita MATI
(follow what Ur heart says and U'll be dead!)
sO, which one is the best way?
for me, when U are in the middle of confuse and don't know which where to go, asking Ur heart is the best way because whether U believe it or not,
Ur heart can feel which option that U should take so that U won't be regret later
But again, how about the quote above? and there are many people said the same thing too..
Are they wrong?
Hehe..those people and the quote are right actually
Why am i saying that?
It is depend on Ur heart itself..
When Ur heart is full with black spots
How can it determine the white area!err good things i mean, or the right choice or maybe the person will face a problem to detect which is the right path for them!..
And when U keep feeding Ur heart with the sins, sooner or later, it will get to use with the bad things either..
That is why when the person misbehaved like cheating for the first time, he will feel unease inside his heart because the Mr. Heart has given the signal to him that he's doing the wrong thing right now..
However, if he keep ignoring the signal and keep cheating to other people, there is no doubt that the signal will light off and he will feel nothing when doing the evil things..
But, if the heart receives a good quality food, it will also give a good respond or in other words, a good or true instinct for U..
It reminds me about our stomach actually, if U give it a healthy and balance meals, it will make Ur body healthier but on the other hand, when U eat junk foods or other unhealthy meals, it will cause Ur body turn upside down! Ur lung become weak, Ur body suffered from diabetes, obesity and so on.. it just the same with our heart.. need a good therapy care in order to maintain it in a better condition..
Thus, always remember what our Beloved s.a.w said and inshaAllah, u'll be safe=)

‘Surely there is in the body a small piece of flesh; if it is good, the whole body is good, and if it is corrupted, the whole body is corrupted, and that is surely the heart’.

Related by Imam Bukhārī in his sahih

And if U happened to 'lost' Ur heart, read the tips below, it might help U;)

Abdullah ibn Masoud (ra) said “Seek your heart in three places (check how it is feeling).
(1) When you are reciting Quran (how is your heart feeling,
(2) State of Dhikr (remembrance of Allah/Prophets/Companions), and
(3) When you are alone.
If you do not feel anything in your heart, then Ask Allah to give you a heart for you have not been given one.

p/s:Purify Ur heart can make Ur life better..InshaAllah and Assalamualaikum^_^

Positive Or Negative > The Choice is Yours..

Assalamualaikum..
Watch this
Its really interesting




I like the quote from the video..so inspiring! MashaAllah..
Change Ur thought, then U can change Ur world
Then I think, if we can change our world or in other words, ourself-
There's no doubt we can change the world or surrounding! InshaAllah..
I guess, its all about our mindset
At least that's what I understood when watching this video..^_^

The ninja, at first, thought that the flies are the problems
He tries very hard to kill its and actually, by doing that
He lets the flies distracting him
Sounds familiar?
Ok, try this
In life, problems, obstacles are not something that can be avoided
Each of U will be faced it no matter who U are or where U come from
Hey, Allah already said it in His Love Letter Compilation! Look here

Be sure we shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil), but give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere (2:155)

E.V.E.R.Y.O.N.E will be tested by our Rabb
But, what makes the difference is the way we handle it and if we handle it improperly
The difficulty could distracting us and of course, will make our head blown up!
Back to the video
Did Mr. Ninja manage to kill the flies?
Nop! U watch the video rite?=)
The flies are keep increasing!
But later, he realized something
If he keeps killing or cutting the flies into the pieces,
It worth him nothing
The flies will keep rising, he will keep fighting and his body and time will pay for it
Because..
His body will lost a lot of energy
And his time will be wasted and he could not focus on his meditation
So, what he should do now is changing his mind setting
Don't see the flies as the annoying one
But as the beautiful petals and the sound of bugging flies is like a streaming of water
So calm and peaceful..
By doing this, he succeed to overcome the distraction

I've learnt something from this..
When facing a difficulty, there's a situation U have to face first
Whether to think positive or negative
Either to be an optimist or a pessimist
It reminds me with the story of half empty or half full glass
If U are the optimist type, U'll see the glass as the half full but
If U are the pessimist one, U'll see it as the half empty glass
So, in other words
For the positive thinkers, the difficulty is a challenge for them
Its also a test for them to rise up to the upper level
Also one way to drag them to move beyond the limit
Get out from the comfort zone
Discover the new potential that sometimes we don't even realize that we able to do that!
Don't be the pessimist one.. Which takes problems as something that can let their spirit down.. Its like tomorrow never comes or that is the end of the life..

Yes, I do know that some people have this questions in their mind

• Why i have been tested in this way? It's just so hard for me..

On no soul doth Allah Place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns. (2:286)

See! Allah will give us a test because He knows that we can overcome with it. Its like when U have been given an important task from Ur leader, what would U feel? I'm sure all of us will feel proud, feel like we are important to our leaders because they trust on U. They realize that U have the ability to perform the task better than others. The same thing happened here! When U face a challenge and U feel like want to give up, always remember that Allah knows U can face it. He knows that U can overcome with it. That is why He gives U this test especially for U.. not to the others!

• How I should face it? I'm clueless and helpless =(

O ye who believe! Persevere in patience and constancy; vie in such perseverance; strengthen each other; and fear Allah; that ye may prosper.(3:200)

Nay, seek (Allah's) help with patient perseverance and prayer: It is indeed hard, except to those who bring a lowly spirit (2:45)

Both ayah have emphasized the important to be patient and also turn to Allah as He is the only one can guide us to the right way.. Some people will turn away from Allah when he's in difficulty. They feel like Allah is not there to help them. He loss his hope to Allah. Naudhubillah

There are among men some who serve Allah, as it were, on the verge: if good befalls them, they are, therewith, well content; but if a trial comes to them, they turn on their faces: they lose both this world and the Hereafter: that is loss for all to see! (22:11)

This ayah mentioned about those people who only serve Allah when the good things happened to them and betray Him when a trial comes to them. Allah also said that these kind of people will lose both world and hereafter! Subhanallah.. May Allah protect us from becoming one of this people and let us be the one who will be with Allah through thick and thin.. Ameen

• Why I fail to succeed? I've put all my efforts but still, the result is not like what I want..

...But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not.(2:216)

Again, Allah knows the best. He is Ur Creator, my Creator and our Creator.. Put Ur full faith on Him. It is not impossible that Ur wish will bring harm to U.. who knows? This is not Ur time yet. Take that failure or the challenge as a lesson straightly comes from Allah! Maybe U've done something bad for examples, U forget Him when U're so busy preparing for Ur exam.. or maybe U have hurt Ur parent's hearts or hurting others people feeling with Ur acts! Think about it for a sec...or even better, Allah might want to reward U for Ur patience and that is why He gives U all the hardships.. Come on. Think positive with Allah s.w.t. If U can think positive to other people- His own creations, why can't U think the same way to Our God? Don't forget, He is the MOST COMPASSIONATE one!..Just stick to Allah's way and U'll never stray to wrong path since He'll be there for U.. He will..

My last words here, let's change our mindset. Don't be scared about what will happen in future. How can U touch the sky if U don't fly? How can U know it's a mistake if U don't try? I have watched a TV series which one of the actors said sometimes the big mistake is when U don't give Urself a chance to know whether the choice U made is a mistake or not..Well.. I guess the point is clear there. And also, how U're going to change the world if U failed to change Ur own world due the failure to change Ur own thought?

Don't Lie!

Deceive-Lie-Betray-Trick
Different words but have the same meaning
It's also an act that can hurt someone
Especially to the loved one
What is the purpose to do this?
Someone I know used to tell me this,
To survive in this world, sometimes,lying is a MUST!
Or else,someone will 'eat' you
But for me, when someone is deceiving others
This is because, he or she want to hide the truth
Trust me, This is also the reason why I used to tell lies b4..
hmm..
But then, I started to realize
When you start telling a lie
You will create another one
For eg; A teacher asked his student, John about why he did not come to school
yesterday
Teacher: Why did U absent from school yesterday?
John : Owh..I'm having a fever(actually, he went to the cyber cafe)
Teacher: Really..so, did U bring Ur MC?
John : Sorry sir.. I didn't go to see the doc. Nobody's can take me there
Teacher:Really. Where's Ur parents?
John : Urm..Both of them are not in home..They've gone on vacation.for a week
Teacher: Vacation?without U?in the middle of month?
John : Yeah..they are having their erm..2nd honeymoon! That's why they have gone without me and they picked this date because..They want to avoid traffic jam! U know sir, how crazy the traffic can be sometimes especially during holidays.haha (John started to feel uneased,his trying his best to hide the truth)
Teacher: I see..now I understand why U couldn't bring the MC
John : (He feels relieved when thinking his teacher believe in his story)
Teacher: But what I don't understand here, can U explain to me why is Ur mother is waving at us right now with ur books on her hand?!
John : erk.. That's my mother's twin.. (Oh My God!)

Did U get something? John keep lying in order to cover the truth. That's also can happen to us. Ok. Maybe the story is just a normal situation which bring no harm.
But how about, when John keep practicing lies to cover his acts, what happen to him when he grown up?
Especially when he gets married..
Do you really think he will speak no lies towards his wife and family when he is doing something wrong?of course not!
The reason?
Because John is habituated to it and he perfect in it
So, what is relationship if it based on lies?
Besides love, the trustworthy is also an important thing to build a relationship right?
And, just put Ur place to his family position
How would U feel when U know someone is cheating on U?
Hurt right? especially when it comes from the one that U really trust

So,what I'm trying to say here
Just tell the truth
Speak no lies
No matter how hard the reality it is, I'm sure no one like to be deceived
Yes, telling the truth is hard, sometimes it can lead to the bad consequences
This is where U should know what is the best situation and the best way to tell the person
And if the person cannot accept it, just let them be
Give them some times
And for U
Deep inside in Ur heart, U will feel relieve because
At least, one burden has been removed from Ur shoulders
Plus if U creating the lies, U will be caught up
If its not today, it will be another day..

Narrated 'Abdullah:

The Prophet said, "Truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise. And a man keeps on telling the truth until he becomes a truthful person. Falsehood leads to Al-Fajur (i.e. wickedness, evil-doing), and Al-Fajur (wickedness) leads to the (Hell) Fire, and a man may keep on telling lies till he is written before Allah, a liar." (HR Bukhari)

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Apostle said, "The signs of a hypocrite are three: Whenever he speaks, he tells a lie; and whenever he promises, he breaks his promise; and whenever he is entrusted, he betrays (proves to be dishonest)". (HR Bukhari)

And if someone has admitted something to U,
My advice is,
Forgive them..
Appreciate their courage to tell U the truth instead of telling lies
U know, it is no easy to admit the mistakes especially the serious one
At least, tell them, U may forgive, but not forget
And also, help them to fix the problem instead of yelling or cursing them
Always remember this, Nobody is perfect
Today is their day
Tomorrow? Maybe one day we will be in their shoes..

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Apostle said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one who controls himself while in anger." (HR Bukhari)

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

The Prophet said, "Make things easy for the people, and do not make it difficult for them, and make them calm (with glad tidings) and do not repulse (them )." (HR Bukhari)
