masa

penah tak dgr term 'jam melayu'? for sure korg sume penah dgr kan. smpai skrg, ramainye yg still mengamalkan jam melayu ni. macam mana eh term jam melayu ni boley muncul? kenapa melayu? memang melayu ni suka dtg lambat and tak tepati masa ke? cuba2 la lihat kembali diri kita, bila berjanji, selalu on time ke selalu lambat. bila set meeting or perjumpaan, tentatively start pukul 2, tengok la pukul berapa sume orang baru smpai? tak kira la satu dua minit or smpai mencecah kiraan jam.

sye tak mahu bercakap tentang mereka yg lambat atas sebab2 kukuh yg tak dpt dielakkan seperti terlibat dlm kemalangan, atau anak tetiba sakit kena bawak gi jumpa doktor. sye nak fokuskan kpd mereka yg guna jam melayu secara berleluasa atau sengaja. contoh mudah, usrah sye naqibah ckp start pukul 4 ptg. sye fikir, nnt sume ahli usrah sye pun akan smpai lambat. so sye pun bertolak dari rumah sye ke rumah naqibah sye pukul 4. so bayangkan, klu pun rumah naqibah sye tu di sebelah rumah sye, akan smpai tepat pukul 4 tak sye? inikan pula bila rumah naqibah tu at least 10 minutes from rumah sye kan.

daripada situasi itu, jom apply dlm urusan seharian. jam melayu dlm semua perkara. nak gi meeting pun lengah2. assignment (lecturer bg assignment ni seminggu yg lalu) due date lecturer dah specify by 12 noon today kena hantar, pukul 9 pagi sume start la suruh class representative contact lecturer supaya extend due date and all. logik la klu assignment yg lecturer bg tu adalah sebuah thesis yg nak siapkannye makan masa berbulan. tp ini, takat tutorial 10 soalan.

kenapa jadi macam ni? sntiasa suka wat kerja last minute, suka lengah2, janji masa tu tah ke mana-mana. this always happen bila kte tak pandai letak priorities kita di mana. bila kte tak pandai arrange kerja seharian supaya bila mana nak dekat smpai timing sesuatu urusan lain itu, kte dpt be on time. bnyk cara kte boleh try. mmg la hidup ni tak boleh nak revolve around one thing, but if we plan everything nicely, insyaAllah boleh je kan?

and sye akui, hidup ni penuh dgn tanggungjawab, terkejar2 nak siapkan satu urusan demi satu urusan. jgn la cakap sye ni tak considerate, nak sume on time, tak fikir org lain ada bnyk kerja. sungguh sye pun ada kerja dan tanggungjawab. sye faham klu once in blue moon terlambat sbb mmg tak sempat and tak mampu nak be on time. sye faham bila ada kekangan2 yg buat anda lambat. cuma sye rasa, sye dan sume org perlu try our own best, to be on time.

fikir2kan lah. bila kte lambat2 ni, kte melambatkan org lain pulak. org lain yg on time pun ada tanggungjawab lain selepas itu. so jgnlah kita jadi penyebab org lain menjadi pengamal jam melayu jugak, jgn jadi penyebab tumpuan dan fokus orang lain pada prgram or pengisian tika itu lari, jgn kerana kita lambat, hilang semangat org lain yg berkobar2! hilangkan istilah 'jam melayu' tu. tak mahu lagi carry istilah tu umpama slogan hidup pulak!

sungguh, siapa itu melayu kat Malaysia tu? mostly kan muslim kan? so, sebenarnya bila kita lambat or tak menepati masa, image siapa yg kte bawak? kita membawa image Islam tu sendiri. malu lah bila bangsa lain pun boley be on time (bukan takat on time, selalu awal lagi) tp kita Muslim tak boleh kan?

hal ini jugak represent macam mana hubungan kita dgn Allah. di mana solat kita. di awal waktu atau kat hujung2 tika tok bilal tu dah nak pegang microphone nak start azan solat yg berikutnya? mmg, hidup ni bnyk sgt urusan, tp kena la plan supaya dpt solat awal waktu kan? of course Allah priority kita kan. klu kita nak gi tengok movie kat cinema, wah 15 minit sblom dah siap duduk kat dlm teater tu. atau kluu nak naik flight or bus, kan tak boleh lambat? so samalah, dlm solat ke, dlm urusan dunia, bila berjanji atau apa2 jua pun, try our very best to be on time.

الوقت كالسيف ان لم تقطعه قطعك

LETS BE A SMART MUSLIM IN EVERYTHING WE DO :)

p/s pesanan ini more to myself. apa yg baik, jadikanlah teladan, apa yg buruk tinggal2kan :)

tawakkal

a month to final. lol i wish! A WEEK to final exam. yeah, the heat is here, just around the corner.

and now, not only what you learnt all year long going to be tested, but something much bigger. our faith to Him. remember, all what you earn is not by your works, but by Allah's grace! but that doesnt mean you should stop working and trying to get the best. do your best, to get His blessing. then, tawakkal comes into picture.

what is tawakkal? that is one word which is mentioned in Holy Quran so frequently. and, that is one thing which is not so easy to achieve, but with trust and faith in Him, tawakkal comes :)

make sure your trust, believe, hope and faith is put upon Allah, the Almighty. and believe that He will give you nothing but THE BEST for you. He knows better :)

one of my favourite ayats

حَسْبِيَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ ۖ وَهُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ

Allah is sufficient for me, there is no god but He; on Him do I rely, and He is the Lord of mighty power.
(9:129)


do pray for me k :)

رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَاجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّاتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ وَاجْعَلْنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِمَامًا

watch this video, you wont regret it :) MasyaAllah still love this even after watching it so many time hihi

Power boost

3 more weeks to finals. Allah I need Your help always.

truly, i dont have the capability to succeed without You. there are millions of words, weird-drugs-name, facts, diseases, symptoms, bacterias, too-many-numbers of dental materials and many more need to be remember. and if you ever think you succeed with your own work, you are just WRONG!

we succeed not of our works, but by grace of Allah :)

so whenever you feel tired, you cant take it anymore or giving up is at the top of your mind, remember Allah count every effort you do and He will give the best for us. so never stop putting your best effort

“And that there is not for man except that [good] for which he strives; and that his effort is going to be seen—then he will be recompensed for it with the fullest [best] recompense; and that to your Lord is the finality”
(53:39-42).

He never promise success but He say He will give you something much better. He will give you FULLEST RECOMPENSE. sometimes, we always forget to see the bigger picture. we always look and analyze whats in front of you, for all you know that is the biggest picture at the moment. but when you realize ultimately, you will know all those tear, failure and doubt is just small dust on your canvas. we dont know what is the best for us, never were, never are, never will. He know whats best for us, so never give up :) whatever He give you (happiness, sadness, success, failure, test, nikmah) He give those with all His grace and love.

ever heard of 'every cloud has a silver lining' ? that is true, but for me, i believe every cloud has silver linings, as long as we want to look for them :)

Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful

story of life

i have so much in my head, but im not sure how to let it out. i wanted to write on it, but when im on the page, i cant even find any word to start. taking countless deep breath trying to chase away the tears that welling up. but you know that sometime even those frequent batting eyelashes or exhaling frustration, the tears will come.

Allah, i need Your guidance always. He know we cant live alone. that is why He give us family, friends, colleague, housemates, room mates, and any acquaintance for you. these people sent to you by Him, as your comfort, your help and your support. but keep in mind that those COMFORT, HELP and SUPPORT are 100% from Him. and these people deliver it to us.

no one can affect my mood except God - quoted
25 days to university exam. im not sure about my preparation... need to be more serious, i know. hihi.. lets be His warriors and strive for mardhatillah :)

dentistry

raindrops and the monsoon always remind me of the first time i arrived here~

1st year, i learnt physiology, biochemistry, anatomy and dental anatomy and histology
but beneath that
what i actually learn was what STUDYING really is
the hours and the books
the tears and the sacrifices
and i also learn how INDIAN learning system
sent out of the class and shouted at in front of the whole class
unpredictable turn of events and the blame is ALWAYS on us

2nd year, and here come pharmacology, pathology, microbiology, dental material, prosthodontics, conservative dentistry
oh 1st year tears shed was nothing compare to this time
and i know, the person who need drugs the most is me
spending days in lab making dentures and torturing phantom head
come back to room with back pain, burn and cuts

alhamdulillah, by Allah's grace
im almost into 3 years
well, final exam first then (pray for me) 3rd year

لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا مَا اكْتَسَبَتْ رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا رَبَّنَا وَلَا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا رَبَّنَا وَلَا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا أَنْتَ مَوْلَانَا فَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ

Allâh 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; 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 Maulâ (Patron, Supporter and Protector, etc.) and give us victory over the disbelieving people

green earth


i feel so inferior when i look at the leaves, swinging happily on the tree
they provide for the tree
they serve as shade for human

their life span may be short
but, they remember Allah more than us

they obey Allah to all the ruling

and every second pass with nothing but Zikr Allah


MasyaAllah!

Allah is the best of planners

had planned to go to Dandeli for weeks now. but Allah has better plans for us :) He send us raining season to help us decide on whether to go or not to. me and friends been having this argument back and forth to predict when is the raining season starting (lol) since if it is raining season, it will be one dangerous place im sure. His guidance arrived fortunately before we make the reservation and pay deposit! thanks Allah!

Alhamdulillah, trial exam finished. and one lesson i learnt most this time is, Allah has the MOST POWER in everything. principle of tawakal is tested actually during exam time, and i hope i didnt fail in that test! Allah to You i pray and to You i hope :)

“They plan and Allah also plans. And Allah is the best of planners.” (Surah Imraan, verse 54)

guilty

i know im not the greatest friend you could ask for, might not even be that good as well. i do mistakes, i get hurt and at times i hurt people. im still learning and still under His tarbiyah. to annamirah, all i can say is, im sorry. understandable if you want to hate me, and never going to talk to me again.. well, you are not talking to me now already.... i deserve it i know.

anyhow, i admit i did a wrong deed and i cant apologize enough on that. take care dear, and be good. i love you much, always have always will insyaAllah (regardless whatever happen...)

uhubbuki fillah. salam syg dari India.

those time..

i remember those time when i start counting
days to fly back home
luggage packed months before
for the countdown started from the moment i step again in India

i remember those time when i arrive to Malaysia from India
those smiles and the excitements
the laughter and the hugs
no worry at all whats going on back at college
what matters most is now
but time does fly too fast

i remember those time when i have to say goodbye
if only they know how nervous i am each time
for leaving them behind is not what i want to do
the hugs felt different
and the tears fall with the steps
walking thro that lane alone

i remember those time when i arrive to India from Malaysia
with handful of heavy luggage
and arm decorated with scratches all over
from the fights with my sisters
but more that hurt is
the aching felt within
the urge to be back home again

yes i do remember each and every time
due each memory
glistening of eyes

i will be back again
i will go thro those time again
but
Allah placed me here
for He have bigger plans
:)

حَسْبِىَ اللَّهُ لا إِلَـهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَهُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ
"Allah is sufficient for me. There is no God but He, in Him I put my trust and He is the Lord of the Mighty Throne."

TimE


when time is counted instead of left running by itself
when seconds passed with steps and days are the landmark
thats when you know you are using your time
and not having a moment to spare

exam exam exam, lets strive for the best, for Allah :)

p/s O Allah, please give me barakah in my time and rahmah in my every breath.

Empty Bubbles and The Chosen Ones



Daripada Tsauban ra berkata : Rasulullah saw bersabda : "Hampir tiba suatu masa di mana bangsa-bangsa dari seluruh dunia akan datang mengerumuni kamu bagaikan orang-orang yang hendak makan mengerumuni talam hidangan mereka". Maka salah seorang sahabat bertanya, "Apakah dari kerana kami sedikit pada hari itu?" Nabi saw menjawab, "Bahkan kamu pada hari itu banyak sekali, tetapi kamu umpama buih di waktu banjir, dan Allah akan mencabut rasa gerun terhadap kamu dari hati musuh-musuh kamu, dan Allah akan mencampakkan ke dalam hati kamu penyakit 'wahan'. Seorang sahabat bertanya, "Apakah wahan itu wahai Rasulullah?". Nabi menjawab : "Cinta pada dunia dan takut pada mati".
-HR Abu Daud-

Daripada Abu Hurairah ra berkata : Bersabda Rasulullah SAW : " Islam mula tersebar dalam keadaan dagang (asing). Dan ia akan kembali asing pula. Maka beruntunglah orang-orang yang asing".
-HR Muslim-

Daripada Aisyah ra berkata : "Aku mendengar Rasulullah SAW bersabda : "Tidak akan berlaku hari kiamat sehingga anak seseorang menjadi punca kemarahan (bagi ibubapanya) dan hujan akan menjadi panas (hujan akan berkurang dan cuaca akan menjadi panas) dan akan bertambah ramai orang yang tercela dan akan berkurangan orang yang baik, dan anak-anak menjadi berani melawan orang-orang tua dan orang yang jahat berani melawan orang-orang baik".
- HR Thabrani -
Di akhir zaman, kan Rasulullah dah ckp, umat Islam akan jadi sgt bnyk, umpama buih di laut. buih yg kosong, dipukul ombak kesanasini, and mudah sgt pecah kan? oh sye tak mahu jadi buih di laut. sye mahu jadi golongan yg Rasulullah ceritakan dlm hadis dia yg lagik satu, di mana akan ada satu golongan yg memegang agama seperti menggengam bara api.

hari tu bila keluar shopping dgn ayah kat KL, tgok muda mudi kiri kanan. cara pakaian, tutur kata dan budi bicara. keluar in group lelaki dan perempuan. caci maki dan perkataan tak senonoh tu seperti air yg keluar dari mulut diorg. melepak bergelak ketawa tak hirau keliling. astagfirullah, sye takut dan malu. sye pun muda mudi. sye jugak mereka. tp sye sendiri bnyk cela, masih terlalu perlahan dalam menyampaikan Islam itu pada kalangan sye sendiri :S terasa diri ni jahil sgt. sedih rasa sbb dh nmpk sgt apa yg Rasulullah maksudkan dgn buih2 tu (moga Allah bg kekuatan dan knowledge utk bawa generasi ini kearah kegemilang Islam insyaAllah)

jadi sye tanya ayah sye, knp ramai sgt dah macam ni. ayah sye cakap, "kan mmg Allah dan Rasulullah dah bgtau those the chosen ones (note the S on ones) mmg akan jadi sedikit kat akhir zaman. so bersyukurlah Allah chose you to be in jamaah, ada yg sentiasa membimbing dan menasihati moga2 kita termasuk dlm golongan the chosen ones tu insyaAllah"

ALHAMDULILLAH ALHAMDULILLAH ALHAMDULILLAH thanks Allah for placing me in jamaah, and giving me parents that really understand maratib amal. Ya Allah, peliharalah kami dalam iman, dan jadikanlah kami di antara yg sedikit dan terasing amin~

Oreo Banana Cream Pie

today is a good day, alhamdulillah. made new friends, insyaAllah hopefully the ukhuwah will be beneficial both ways.

will upload the pictures soon, when Nazira send me those pictures ;) and due to the request, here is the recipe for the pie :)



Oreo cookie crust
  • 1 1/2 of Oreo biscuit ( around 15 pieces of the cookie sandwich)
  • 5 tbsp of melted butter
  1. Place the biscuits in a zip-lock bag and press the air out of the bag before sealing it
  2. Just crush away with hammer (or any hard things hihi)
  3. pour the biscuit in a bowl and add your melted butter, just mix everything together until everything is coated with the butter
  4. place the mixture in your pie pan and spread it till you cover the whole bottom of your pan
  5. bake for 5-10 minutes at 350F
  6. remove and let it cool before pouring the topping

p/s : I applied a layer of white egg on top of the base to prevent the base from become soggy. and i think this recipe can be used for any other type of biscuit too :)

Banana Cream Pie
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups milk
  • 3 egg yolks, slightly beaten
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 ripe bananas
  1. Mix sugar, flour and salt in a sauce pan.
  2. Stir in the milk, and cook over low heat, stirring constantly until thickened.
  3. Add the egg yolks one at a time, stirring after each addition.
  4. Continue to cook the custard, stirring constantly, for around 5 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the butter, the mashed banana and the vanilla.
  6. Let cool for 15 minutes, then pour into the prepared crust.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, until thoroughly chilled.
p/s serve with whipped cream, if you want. for whipped cream, I just use fresh cream, icing sugar (this to make the whipped cream hold longer outside the fridge) and vanilla. whip the cream until thicken (dont overbeat it - buttery texture means too much beating)

hope this recipe helps :)

sickness

having fever, headache, cold and sore throat. and exam is in 10 days time, and im not ready yet. Allah, give me health and give me ease in this exam pleaseee~
Tidaklah seorang muslim tertimpa suatu penyakit dan sejenisnya, melainkan Allah akan mengugurkan bersamanya dosa-dosanya seperti pohon yang mengugurkan daun-daunnya”.

(HR. Bukhari no. 5660 dan Muslim no. 2571).


alhamdulillah :)

(155) And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits, but give glad tidings to As-Sabirin (the patient ones, etc.).(156) Who, when afflicted with calamity, say: "Truly! To Allah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return." (157) They are those on whom are the Salawat (i.e. blessings, etc.) (i.e. who are blessed and will be forgiven) from their Lord, and (they are those who) receive His Mercy, and it is they who are the guided-ones.
