Allah lebih Maha Berkuasa

Setelah dihalau dari bumi sendiri, Syeikh Yusuf Qardhawi kembali mengimamkan solat jumaat, dengan bacaan Al Quran yang membawa maksud " Dia mampu meruntuhkan mana2 kerajaan dengan semudah kata 'kun'"



He recited in the first rakaat:

وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَى أُمَمٍ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ فَأَخَذْنَاهُمْ بِالْبَأْسَاءِ وَالضَّرَّاءِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَضَرَّعُونَ (42) فَلَوْلَا إِذْ جَاءَهُمْ بَأْسُنَا تَضَرَّعُوا وَلَكِنْ قَسَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ (43) فَلَمَّا نَسُوا مَا ذُكِّرُوا بِهِ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ أَبْوَابَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَتَّى إِذَا فَرِحُوا بِمَا أُوتُوا أَخَذْنَاهُمْ بَغْتَةً فَإِذَا هُمْ مُبْلِسُونَ (44) فَقُطِعَ دَابِرُ الْقَوْمِ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ (45)

“We sent Messengers before you (O Prophet) to many nations and afflicted their people with suffering and hardships, so that they could learn humility. If only they had learned humility when suffering came from Us! But no, their hearts became hard and Satan made their foul deeds alluring to them. So, when they had forgotten the warning they had received, We opened the gates to everything for them. Then, as they revelled in what they has been given, We struck them suddenly and they were dumbfounded. The evildoers were wiped out: praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.” (6:42-45)

And the second Rak‘ah from Surat’l-Fajr:

وَالْفَجْرِ (1) وَلَيَالٍ عَشْرٍ (2) وَالشَّفْعِ وَالْوَتْرِ (3) وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَسْرِ (4) هَلْ فِي ذَلِكَ قَسَمٌ لِذِي حِجْرٍ (5) أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعَادٍ (6) إِرَمَ ذَاتِ الْعِمَادِ (7) الَّتِي لَمْ يُخْلَقْ مِثْلُهَا فِي الْبِلَادِ (8) وَثَمُودَ الَّذِينَ جَابُوا الصَّخْرَ بِالْوَادِ (9) وَفِرْعَوْنَ ذِي الْأَوْتَادِ (10) الَّذِينَ طَغَوْا فِي الْبِلَادِ (11) فَأَكْثَرُوا فِيهَا الْفَسَادَ (12) فَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ سَوْطَ عَذَابٍ (13) إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِالْمِرْصَادِ (14)

“By the Daybreak, by the Ten Nights, by the even and the odd, by the passing night – is this oath strong enough for a rational person? Have you considered how your Lord dealt with ‘Ād, of Iram, (the city) of lofty pillars, whose like has never been made in any land, and the Thamūd, who hewed into the rocks in the valley, and the mighty and powerful Pharaoh? All of them committed excesses in their lands, and spread corruption there: your Lord let a scourge of punishment loose on them. Your Lord is always watchful.” (89:1-14)

Kita merancang, Allah sebaik-baik Perancang :)

Alhamdulillah 'ala kulli haal :)

Dari 2009 saya telah memasang niat untuk mengambil peperiksaan MFDS part 1 dan IELTS, kerana dari kecil UK, Australia adalah pilihan saya menyambung belajar, tetapi sebaik-baik perancang adalah DIA, saya terpaksa menangguhkan. Urusan membina perkahwinan (bait muslim sebagai pemudah cara), urusan transfer yang memerlukan modal yang banyak, urusan melahirkan anak (kerana En Suami tidak membenarkan Dr lelaki untuk merawat saya, maka kami memilih untuk melahirkan di hospital swasta),segalanya memerlukan kewangan yang terlalu besar buat kami berdua. Pakar Perunding Pergigian Kanak-Kanak atau Pakar Perunding Pergigian Konservatif (masih dalam istikharah) adalah impian saya. Tetapi segalanya perlu ditangguhkan, 2012 insya Allah

ALhamdulillah, 3 bulan pregnancy yang mudah. tiada heavy morning sickness. Tiada emosi keterlaluan. Tiada keletihan teramat. Alhamdulillah. Moga terus-terus dipermudahkan. Ya Allah, ada perancangan kami, moga perancangan itu selari dengan kehendakMu. Makbulkanlah Ya Allah...

"Abi, When We Will Ever Relax?"

Assalamualaikum wbt.

Would like to share this with my sisters and brothers of Islam (copied from "The Very Best Productive Muslim.com's article. Tried to attached the link here, but unfortunately, it didn't work. Forgive me for the lacking of technical expertise in this)

"Abi, when we will ever relax?"
"With the first step we take into Jannah"

I wanted to share a moving story that I once heard and
will always remember and cherish for its meanings. It's
the story of one of the great Imams of this Ummah, Imam
Ahmad bin Hanbal.

His son, Abdullah, asked his father one day: “Abi when
will we ever relax?” His father, one of the greatest
revivers of the Sunnah and a role model for all Muslims,
looked him in the eye and said: “With the $rst step we
take into Jannah.”

Ya Allah, what a beautiful response!

There are days that come to you and you’re tired, you just
want to sleep and relax and "shut o"" as they say. Those
are the days in which you need to ask yourself a critical
question: ‘Where am I going with life?’ If it's towards
Allah and for Allah, then regain your strength and
continue your work, for Jannah is precious and must be
sought. But if you look into your life and realise that it's not
towards Allah but towards Dunya, then your tiredness
becomes a blessing, for it is a reminder that you need to
change direction and renew your purpose in life.

I love this story on many levels. For one, it shows you that
when someone's focus is Jannah, their priorities change
and their outlook on life is different. What we perceive as
diffculty, they perceive as ease. What we perceive as
calamity, they perceive as reward. What we perceive as
obstacles, they perceive as opportunities for sincere
dua. Moreover, when your focus is Jannah, this Dunya and
its constant demand becomes small and the least of our
concerns.

Also, I love the way the son began his question: "Abi" – a
sweet way of addressing his father, and asked: "When
will we ever relax?" If you notice, he didn't say, "when will
I relax Dad?” Even though he wanted to relax, he wasn’t
sel$sh and also cared for his father's condition. This also
shows you that the father and son were working hard
together. Again, when your focus is Jannah it re%ects in
your family, children, and those around you and everyone
gears up towards that goal.
Our problem today is not that we're tired, our problem
today is that we relax too much. We do everything so that
we relax. We cheat, break promises, do not fullfill
vows, lie, take and give bribery, and so on. Why? So we
can relax. We don't stay up for Tahajjud or wake up for
Fajr, we don't fast, or go for Hajj and Umrah… all so we
can relax. We don't walk towards the Masjid or open the
Book of Allah so we can understand it, all in the name of
"I need to relax!"

Dear brothers and sisters, there's plenty of relaxation
where we're going, but this is not the time for it. Let's all
work for Jannah and be productive in the path of Allah,
and work so hard that one day our children will approach
us and ask: "Abi" or "Ummi": "When will we ever relax?"
and you can smile and look them in the eyes and say,
"When we enter Jannah inshaAllah".

Hati fitrahnya lembut. Mungkin telah lama ditinggalkan santapan hati itu, hati itu kembali keras. Biarlah, kali ini, hati ini menjadi lembut. Selembut air mata yang menitis mendengar nama-nama Allah. Lebih laju lagi menitis tatkala membaca terjemahan Asmaul Husna. Ya Rabbi, Ighfirlana. Ya Allah, Ampunilah kami....

. Bisakah kita mengambil sifat asmaul husna untuk dimasukkan dalam diri? Sabar, mendengar, penyayang? Ighfirlana ya Rabb. Ighfirlana Ya Rabb...

Make Me Strong

Hm, beautiful nasyid. Daripada kita terus-terusan mengeluh, lebih baik kita berdoa (atau bercakap pada yang kita percaya sahaja), daripada kita terus-terusan dalam misery, lebih baik kita lihat dari perspektif yang lain dan berusaha. Apa yang penting, cuba senyum =)

A special dedication :)

Title : Make Me Strong

Album : Wherever You Are

I know I’m waiting

Waiting for something
Something to happen to me
But this waiting comes with
Trials and challenges
Nothing in life is free

I wish that somehow
You’d tell me out aloud
That on that day I’ll be ok
But we’ll never know cause
That’s not the way it works
Help me find my way

My Lord show me right from wrong
Give me light make me strong
I know the road is long
Make me strong
Sometimes it just gets too much
I feel that I’ve lost touch
I know the road is long
Make me strong

I know I’m waiting
Yearning for something
Something known only to me
This waiting comes with
Trials and challenges
Life is one mystery

I wish that somehow
You’d tell me out aloud
That on that day you’ll forgive me
But we’ll never know cause
That’s not the way it works
I beg for your mercy

My Lord show me right from wrong
Give me light make me strong
I know the road is long
Make me strong
Sometimes it just gets too much
I feel that I’ve lost touch
I know the road is long
Make me strong

The Clouds Who Remind Me about The Almighty

@ Sri Aman waterfront :6.20pm

purplish, bluish, whitish, a great combination :)

I was exhausted after a course,and rushed to the international airport. I was thinking to have a nap before reaching Kuching, but this scenery amazed me. Subhanallah, a dusk from above

Forgive me for the not-so-good image quality. Taken using SE W705 3.2mp, and Sony Cybershot T500

“Allah, Dialah yang mengirim angin lalu angin itu menggerakkan awan dan Allah membentangkannya di langit menurut yang dikehendakiNya, dan menjadikannya bergumpal-gumpal: lalu kamu lihat hujan keluar dari celah-celahnya. Maka apabila hujan itu turun menimpa hambaNya yang dikehendakiNya menjadikan mereka gembira. (Surah Ar-Rum: 48)

I took these pictures forgetting all the photography rules (R03, horizontal lines, contrast, make the picture as simple as it could etc). 

A friend of mine said " I love to see the sky especially during sunset. It is such a perfect tranquilizer." And both of us share the same passion, gazing at the beautiful clouds, and sky. 

Hmm, I would like to direct our focus to this hadith :

Do you know if our prophet sees dark clouds approaching, he would always look worried, for the fear of the same cloud that Prophet ‘Aad’s people had?

‘A’isha, the wife of the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him), reported: I never saw Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) laugh to such an extent that I could see his uvula-whereas he used to smile only-and when he saw dark clouds or wind, (the signs of fear) were depicted on his face. I said: Messenger of Allah, I find people being happy when they see the dark cloud in the hope that it would bring rain, but I find that when you see that (the cloud) there is an anxiety on your face. He said: ‘A’isha, I am afraid that there may be a calamity in it, for a people was afflicted with wind, when the people saw the calamity they said:” It is a cloud which would give us rain” (Muslim)

But when it rained, he would be relieved.

Ata’ b. Rabah reported on the authority of ‘A’isha, the wife of the Apostle of Allah (way peace be upon him), who said: Whenever the wind was stormy, the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) used to say:O Allah! I ask Thee for what is good in it, and the good which it contains, and the good of that which it was sent for. I seek refuge with Thee from what is evil in it, what evil it contains, and the evil of that what it was sent for;and when there was a thunder and lightning in the sky, his colour underwent a change, and he went out and in, backwards and forwards; and when the rain came, he felt relieved, and I noticed that (the sign of relief) on his face.(Muslim)

If only we could reach that level of taqwa :(


PS : there are enough evidence that He is The Only Almighty ...
