ENAM PERSOALAN HIDUP

Assalamu'alaikum...hr nie aku ada dpt satu emel yg sgt bagus utk peringatan diri nie...sedikit tazkirah utk hatiku yg semakin gersang nie...huhu

Suatu hari, Imam Al Ghazali berkumpul dengan murid-muridnya. Lalu Imam Al Ghazali bertanya, pertama, "Apa yang paling dekat dengan diri kita di dunia ini?". Murid-muridnya ada yang menjawab orang tua, guru, teman, dan kerabatnya. Imam Ghazali menjelaskan semua jawapan itu benar. Tetapi yang paling dekat dengan kita adalah "mati". Sebab itu sudah janji Allah SWT bahwa setiap yang bernyawa pasti akan mati. (Maksud ayat 185, Surah Ali Imran)
Lalu Imam Ghazali meneruskan pertanyaan yang kedua, "Apa yang paling jauh dari diri kita di dunia ini?". Murid-muridnya ada yang menjawab negara Cina, bulan, matahari, dan bintang-bintang.



Lalu Imam Ghazali menjelaskan bahawa semua jawapan yang mereka berikan adalah benar. Tapi yang paling benar adalah "masa lalu". Bagaimanapun kita, apapun kenderaan kita, tetap kita tidak bisa kembali ke masa lalu. Oleh sebab itu kita harus menjaga hari ini dan hari-hari yang akan datang dengan perbuatan yang sesuai dengan ajaran Agama. Lalu Imam Ghazali meneruskan dengan pertanyaan yang ketiga, "Apa yang paling besar di dunia ini?".

Murid-muridnya ada yang menjawab gunung, bumi, dan matahari. Semua jawapan itu benar kata Imam Ghazali. Tapi yang paling besar dari yang ada di dunia ini adalah "nafsu" (Maksud ayat 179, Surah Al A'Raf). Maka kita harus hati-hati dengan nafsu kita, jangan sampai nafsu membawa kita ke neraka. Pertanyaan keempat adalah, "Apa yang paling berat di dunia ini?". Ada yang menjawab baja, besi, dan gajah. Semua jawapan hampir benar, kata Imam Ghazali, tapi yang paling berat adalah "memegang AMANAH" (Maksud ayat 72, Surah Al Ahzab).

Tumbuh-tumbuhan, binatang, gunung, dan malaikat semua tidak mampu ketika Allah SWT meminta mereka untuk menjadi khalifah (pemimpin) di dunia ini. Tetapi manusia dengan sombongnya menyanggupi permintaan Allah SWT, sehingga banyak dari manusia masuk ke neraka kerana ia tidak mampu memegang amanahnya. Pertanyaan yang kelima adalah, "Apa yang paling ringan di dunia ini?".

Ada yang menjawab kapas, angin, debu, dan daun-daunan. Semua itu benar kata Imam Ghazali, tapi yang paling ringan di dunia ini adalah meninggalkan "solat". Gara-gara pekerjaan kita tinggalkan solat, gara-gara "meeting" kita tinggalkan solat. Lantas pertanyaan keenam adalah, "Apakah yang paling tajam di dunia ini?". Murid-muridnya menjawab dengan serentak, pedang... Benar kata Imam Ghazali, tapi yang paling tajam adalah "lidah manusia". Karena melalui lidah, manusia dengan mudahnya menyakiti hati dan melukai perasaan saudaranya sendiri.

Wallahu'alam~

The Climb

Salam~

Today has been a very exhausting day for me...mentally and physically..i feel like i need to boost my spirits back up somehow..i feel so down today..huhuthe lyrics to this song by Miley Cyrus really relates to what i am feeling right now..huhu


I can almost see it
That dream I´m dreaming but
There´s a voice inside my head saying
You´ll never reach it

Every step I´m taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking

But I
I gotta keep trying
Gonna keep my head held high

There´s always gonna be another mountain
I´m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I´m gonna have to lose

Aint about how fast I get there
Aint about what´s waiting on the other side
It´s the climb

The struggles I´m facing
The chances I´m taking
Sometimes they knock me down but
No I´m not breaking

I mean I know it
But these are the moments that
I´m gonna remember most
Yeah
Just gotta keep going

And I
I gotta be strong
Just keep pushing on

Cuz
There´s always gonna be another mountain
I´m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
And sometimes I´m gonna to have to lose

Aint about how fast I get there
Aint about what´s waiting on the other side
It´s the climb

Yeah

There´s always gonna be another mountain
I´m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes you gonna to have to lose

Aint about how fast I get there
Aint about what´s waiting on the other side
It´s the climb

Yeah
Yeay
Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith
Baby
It´s all about
It´s all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith
Woho



Oh Allah, please grant me the strength to persevere in this small test You have given me...I'm sure that You have never neglected me..and it is because You love me that You made me face these obstacles so that i could become a stronger and better person..sometimes i feel so lonely and i tend to lose my way in this fast-paced world..please don't let me fall out of Your hands..Guide me in the right path..the path that leads straight to You....ameen

Meet me halfway...(sounds like a song title)


Assalamualaikum..


Umairah desu..hehe..how are you all doing today fellow bloggers? I hope everyone is doing A-okay and in good health =)

I’m sure people are weirded out by my sudden change of habit – tetiba rajen nak update blog..tiap2 hari plak tu..hohoho..Actually, I find it kind of therapeutic writing here, something like a way to escape from my everyday reality and just keep track of my every day activities..dooodlez..hehe

Today started like any regular day- a few pimples which suddenly came out to pay my face a visit really made me look ‘berseri-seri’..kui3.. followed by a bombastic speech by our lecturer which brought an uproar to the lecture hall, a meeting with my hospital preceptor, but I forgot to take my manual book. Coincidentally, kak syira also forgot to bring her manual so we went back to hostel to retrieve it..thank you my beloved K for without you I don’t know what I’d do..p.s. my K is KElisa BGL 4_0..hoho

So then we went back for the meeting with our respective lecturers and 45 minutes later masie and I headed back to the angsana cafeteria to buy lunch..wan called to help her buy lunch as she would be a bit late..then wan and I had lunch together at home.

When I arrived for the evening class, it had already started..(dang, I’m late again..huhu)..today is lucky draw presentation day..and as luck had it, I got to be the first presenter for my group as my friend who was supposed to present it had a sore throat and requested that I took her place…huhuhu..i was so nervous..but I survived..thank goodness that I could pass the mic to my other group members later on..ok laa that’s all for today’s blog..I need to get back to my assignments..which are piling up by the hour..i’m gonna pen-off now..thanks for reading this weird blog of mine..arigatou..n see you later..salam ^__^Y

another day passes by...

Assalamualaikum wbt..

Alhamdulillah because I am still given the opportunity to live today in this world. I know that I have so much to be grateful for, yet I am still ungrateful…Oh Allah, please forgive me..
Today is another normal day as a student here in Puncak Alam. I tried finishing my work (tons and tons of them..huhu)..and Alhamdulillah I managed to finish some of the case studies..with the help of my friends as well that is.hehe..

This evening my friend and I went to Tesco Setia Alam around 5.40 pm..it was an interesting ride cuz it looked cloudy as if the rain would pour anytime..but we reached Tesco with no downpour..(it was until we were inside that it began to rain..hee).
Later at night, just now actually..around 11pm..my friend wan called Anis to pick her up at Puncak Perdana as she missed her bus..so I escorted anis there (sunyi kot jln ke puncak perdana tuu..takuut)..we got lost a bit cuz we passed the right turn to shah alam..but we managed to get back on track..huhu..a few incidents happened..involving a mouse on the road which I don’t feel like explaining..huhu..

but Alhamdulillah we reached puncak perdana Campus safe and sound..Wan was also fine and smiling..I gave revive soda to wan to regain her energy..(sian dia..mesti takut gler terlepas bas td..) Later we drove back to puncak alam and arrived at 11.30pm when the guard told us to show our matrix card as it was past 11pm..then we went on our way and arrived safely at our beloved hostel..woohoo..alhamdulillah..hehe =)
