penatkah diri ini?

-untitled-


salam a'laikum.

"bukan mudah bernafas dalam jiwa hamba" 

namun, bukankah...
"Jika Allah menolong kamu, maka tidak ada apa yang dapat mengalahkanmu, tetapi jika Allah meninggalkan kamu [tidak memberu pertolongan], maka siapa yang dapat menolong kamu setelah itu? kerana itu kepada Allah sahaja orang-orang mukmeen bertawakal."
[ali imran, 3:160]

ya hidup ini sukar,
ya dugaan itu memedihkan,
ya kata-kata manusia kadang kala menusuk kalbu,
ya dun-Ya ini menyeksakan.

tapi,

"dan carilah [pahala] negeri akhriat dengan apa yang telah dianugerahkan Allah kepada kamu, tetapi janganlah kamu lupakan bagianmu di dunia dan berbuat baiklah [ kepada orang lain] sebagaimana Allah telah berbuat baik kepadamu, dan janganlah kamu berbuat kerusakan di bumi. sungguh Allah tidak menyukai orang yang berbuat kerusakan."
[al-qasas,28:77]

diri hina ini mengakui kelemahan yang terang dan nyata terpampang melalui kata-kata dan perbuatan. sehinggakan pada suatu tahap di mana tidak lagi berasa hebat untuk meneruskan perjuangan dek dugaan-dugaan yang menimpa. lelah, penat... sudah kering air mata ini mengalir kerana memikirkan hal dunia. ingin sahaja diri ini terus menghadap-Nya, kerinduan seorang hamba kepada Tuhannya. 
Ya Allah, aku akui... aku penat. namun, aku mendoakan agar Engkau membantu aku berpegang pada janjiku ini. tidak akan aku berhenti berjuang kerana-Mu sehingga aku yakin aku punya tempat di syurga-Mu. dan tidak salah sekiranya syurga Firdaus yang kuharapkan. kurniakanlah aku kekuatan itu.

jiwa hamba ini kadang kala senang terguris dek kata-kata yang sukar menembusi hati batunya. namun, tidak pernah otak ini cuba berhenti untuk bersangka baik dengan manusia-manusia yang Dia kurniakan bagi mewarnai hidup ini. penat. iya, penat. lebih-lebih lagi apabila sangkaan baik itu disangkal dengan bukti depan mata kepala sendiri. namun, digagahkan jua menerima mereka seadanya kerana tidak semua manusia sempurna.

keremukan hati ini selalu diabaikan  kerana mengharapkan kebahagiaan buat mereka yang lain. sakit... tidak dinafikan kesaktian sakitnya. pernah ingin melupakan kepentingan manusia lain dan berpaksikan hanya pada kepentingan diri. ya, berjaya! namun, warna kebahagiaan hidup ini semakin pudar. mampukah untuk mewarnainya semula?

hendak dikatakan betapa tidak bersyukurnya hamba yang berkata-kata dalam alam maya ini, sering kali melupakan keperitan Rasulullah memperjuangkan agama Islam. mengabaikan pengorbanan para sahabat. tatkala diri tertekan, segala pengetahuan tentang kehebatan umat islam terdahulu... lenyap begitu sahaja. setelah melepaskan perasaan, barulah hendak beristighfar.

bukankah SABAR ITU ADALAH PADA HENTAKAN YANG PERTAMA ?

belum lagi leher ini dijerut,
tidak lagi batu besar menghempap diri,
masih mustahil untuk diseret ditengah-tengah padang pasir yang panat terik,
tidak pernah merasai diboikot manusia sekeliling,
tidur dalam keadaan lena, tidak memikirkan kemungkinan diri ini dicabut nyawa dan terus menghadap-Nya dalam keadaan tidak bersedia.

wahai diri!
kamu mengeluh!
kamu mengatakan kamu penat!
kamu mengatakan kamu sudah melakukan sedaya yang kamu mampu!
kamu mengatakan manusia tidak menghargai perjuangan kamu!

tidak malukah kamu pada Tuhan?
tidak malukah kamu pada Rasulullah s.a.w?!
tidak malukah kamu pada para sahabat?!!
pada mujahideen??????!!!

kepenatan itu hanyalah tipu daya dunia! diri punya lebih kekuatan sekiranya sumbernya adalah benar. iaitu Allah. sekiranya terasa diri ini penat, maka mintalah kekuatan daripada-Nya. sekiranya diri ini sedih, maka pintalah Dia agar menggembirakan hati. sekiranya diri ini keseorangan, maka sedarlah perasaan itu adalah dusta! kerana Allah kan ada...

janganlah takut tak kena tempat...

salam a'laikum.
oh, santek! subhanallah

this picture is still new. fresh from the oven! ahah... grab it this morning while unwinding myself after too concentrated with "oxidation and reduction" and also "acid and base". hurm... insha-Allah, all those knowledge, i learned them not for the sake of IB exam. it is for myself. for me to get nearer to Allah.

"hah? cane blaja chemistry boleh dekatkan diri kepada Allah?"

ahah!

for that to be discovered, it all started with niat.

"cakap senang la. nak buat susah tahu tak!"

hurm... if we just keep on denying it, not even try to do it... then it will be difficult. may be as a start it will be difficult and we will  not even feel like study for Allah. but dont we remember that not He looks at the outcome, but He looks at our effort.

"... Verily never will Allah change the condition of a people until they change it themselves (with their own souls)..."
[ar-Ra'd,13:11]

next week the IRP will officially start. huh huh huh huh... fuh~~~ exam in one month plus plus!

R E M I N D E R
 [in Malay version]

kenal tak ekspresi ayat ini,

"aku tak nak cakap benda-benda pasal islam ni, sebab aku tahu aku akan diuji"

"Apakah manusia mengira bahawa mereka akan dibiarkan hanya dengan mengatakan, "Kami telah beriman," dan mereka tidak diuji."
[al-ankabut, 29:2]

"ha, sebab itu aku tak nak ambil risiko kena uji."

tapi kan... sejauh mana kita yakin bahawa kita hanya akan diuji bila mana kita berkata-kata. adakah ekspresi perasaan melalui kata-kata di atas menafikan bahawa Allah itu Maha Berkuasa ke atas hamba-hamba-Nya? memang kita akan diuji apabila kita berkata-kata tentang sesuatu perkara. terutama apabila kita berkata-kata mengenai perkara yang melibatkan iman dan islam. tapi, tak semestinya "apabila kita senyap, menyimpan ilmu-ilmu yang kita ada, nampak kemaksiatan depan mata tapi ambil keputusan untuk berdiam diri kerana takut akan diuji suatu hari nanti"... kita TIDAK AKAN DIUJI.

sebenarnya kan, apabila kita diuji... disebabkan kita mengatakan 'sesuatu', bagi saya itu adalah satu hadiah. hah? hadiah?!!! betul... sebab apabila kita berkata-kata, mungkin kita sekadar menyampaikan dan berkongsi ilmu pengetahuan TANPA meyakini apa yang kita perkatakan. dalam usaha untuk MEMBUAT KITA YAKIN DENGAN KATA-KATA KITA, Allah turunkan ujian buat diri yang hina ini. sehingga membuat kita betul-betul yakin dengan pertuturan kita.

contohnya, Ali berkongsi ayat surah ar-ra'd, 13: 28

"... ingatlah hanya dengan mengingati Allah hati kan menjadi tenteram..."

dengan seorang sahabatnya yang sedang bersedih hati. pada suatu hari, dia pula yang diuji dengan kesedihan [tidak perlu dinyatakan kerana tiada kepentingan]. maka, apabila Ali teringat akan kata-katanya dahulu kepada sahabatnya... Ali mula sedari bahawa dia bersedih kerana Allah tidak lagi menjadi yang pertama dalam hatinya. 

jadi, kini Ali betul-betul yakin dan beriman dengan ayat tersebut. faham ke?

janganlah kerana kita takut suatu hari kita akan diuji dengan butir-butir mutiara yang lahir dari mulut kita, kita mengambil keputusan untuk BERDIAM DIRI dan membiarkan orang lain menjadi mangsa keadaan.

ilmu di dada, berkongsilah...

bila terasa rindu by Dafi [hah? apakah?!!!]

salam a'laikum.

a few words before i open the chemistry book.

you guys know about this song? "bila terasa rindu" by Dafi AF_ [i couldnt remember which series]. for me, there is a funny story behind this song.

here i go, in KMB... i listen to nothing but only the songs in my Music folder. so, keep on repeating the same songs over and over again... [huh.. tak berkembang! do i care?]. but, then when it is time for me to go back home, in the car... there would be lots of songs that i never heard before. and most of them are unacceptable [for me of course, well they were love songs for the... you know what i mean right?]. there was once, the time when it was weekends and i decided to go back [it had been a while since i last step in a place where i can call HOME]. and i heard that Dafi's song. 

i couldnt understand what his words were about. but i managed to get a grip to this one particular line. of course this line is related to the title of the song. 

bila terasa rindu, kusebut namamu.

what came across my mind was this,

bila terasa rindu, kusebut nama-Mu.

back in KMB, i kept on reciting this line over and over again. only this particular line. and everyone was like, uuuu... lagu Dafi... lagu Dafi.... and i was like, huh??? i was singing a love song towards Allah. so what? i still couldnt understand why they were being so sarcastic. 

therefore, i decided to download that song. huh~~ the connection here is too 'hebat'. it took a while to download anything. so, i searched for the lyrics first. and when i read the lyrics. OMG! goosebump! the lyrics were soo, urghh!!! dont mind me. blerrgghhh!!! can believe that was the song that i had been singing.

the only lyric that suited me was the line up there, the rest. owh man... i feel like want to wash my mouth with detergent. ewww... ewww.... ewww.... 

i'm a bit slow when it comes to recent music in the air... now i know why people raised their eyebrows when i sang that song to them. hahaha... moral of the story, jangan nyanyi lagu dafi kalau tak paham liriknya. ^_^ no la. there is no harm of listenigng to any songs. it depends on us how we are going to act and think regarding the messages that the artists trying to convey. 

one R E M I N D E R,  listening to love songs can really affect how you feel towards someone. come one lets change the "someone" to "the most powerful, the One and only... Allah". ahah!! so lets here a lot of love towards Allah songs. have a few... you guy can download them at youtube. use them wisely...
  1. carilah cinta by raihan.
  2. rahmat ujian by ______.
  3. aku ingin mencintai-Mu by edcoustic.
  4. destinasi cinta by mestica.
  5. atas nama cinta by unic.
  6. muhasabah cinta by edcoustic.
  7. inayah by mestica.
  8. aku tanpa cinta-Mu by mirwana ft. jay jay.
  9. sejuta harapan by da'i nada.
  10. cinta teragung by mestica.
  11. pada-Mu kubersujud by afgan.
cinta Allah seronok bukan? ^_^
for us to speak to Allah, SOLAT.
for us to listen Allah "speaking" to us, RECITE THE QURAN.

Bila ketakutan pada azab Tuhan sudah tiada.


salam a'laikum.

Last night, went out with beloved “the rokis” [that’s what we called ourselves, my family]. Search for dinner. Hurm… stopped by a restaurant named Ali TomYam at Jalan Keramat, KL. The dishes were awesome. Alhamdulillah.

I’m not emphasizing on the delicacies, but what caught my eyes was that there was a couple who went from table to table asking for donation. One of them was blind and holding a stick to support his movement. And another was helping his friend by guiding him and held him by his arm. Yeah, both of them were guys and I supposed they were best friends. Both of them were wearing shirts and jeans.

blind? or blind-folded?
I couldn’t keep my eyes off them. I watched them. I observed them. I stalked them. [erk?]. From one table to another, they pleaded for some money. For those who had a noble heart, they lend a hand. RM1, RM5, even RM10. But they did not come to our table. Perhaps one of the saw me staring them from the beginning, it could be. [wooo… scary tak?] Then, they just took off.

I don’t know why, could be I’m a bit prejudice and sort of like su-uzzhon towards those two unfortunate guys. After they left, full of eagerness, I stood up and asked my sister, “Jom kite tengok diorang nak?” but she refused. So, it was just me then. I went out the restaurant and tried to search for them. They didn’t go far. Walking straight without any difficulty, I was right, HE WAS NOT BLIND AT ALL. He was pretending to be one. While walking, they were counting their ‘collections’ that they ‘work hard for it’ from that restaurant. 
a study had been carried out. proving that pengemis profesional can get about RM30 000 per month. as if like RM130 per hour.
I went back in and told my sister. “told ya, he’s normal”. 

When people don’t really have the fear towards God’s punishments, they tend to do whatever they wanted to. Even it is a sin. This kind of people the media called them pengemis professional if I’m not mistaken. May Allah lead them to the rightful path.

Hurm… this had really put a humungous stone on my shoulders, not literally. There are a lot of things need to be done. The targeted audience is not only in KMB, but the masyarakat itself. “But I’m just an IB student, what can I do?!” ahah! We are not JUST IB students. We are THE IB students. We can do almost anything. [wah, ini tipu!]. Ok, we can try our best to do anything if it concerning about ummah. Am I right? at this primary stage, yes… it is about KMB, but out there… we are still His caliphs and we have a mission to be completed!

Speaking of IB. exam is near. Sometimes, people can get very close to Allah during the examination month. But later, phewww…. Gone with the wind. Sometimes, people could get very far from Allah due to excessive admiration towards books until they forgot that He who decides everything. Which one are you? Hurm… Which one am I?

what title should i write? ahah! thank you Allah.



salam a'laikum.

this song is dedicated to dear akhowat.
[or may be to myself?]
wanted to write down all your names here, but... Allah had granted me too many lovable people.
you know who you are, am i right?
our battle, our fight... it is the best thing that has ever happen to me.
it is not a dream.
but it is a reality, the most awesome reality!

^_^
jazakillah hu khairan kathira.
for your kindness and always there,
either when in need or not. 
heheh...
ok this entry is a personal one.
i just want to share this awesome feeling with everyone.
ok, may be i'm just the one who syok sendiri sekarang.
but i just feel like want to run as fast as al-a'diyat!
this adrenaline rush is unbearable.
need to use it to the maximum where the dy/dx is equal to zero.
i'm loving it when I was at the point of inflection, d2y/dx2 = 0 
well, SL students? changing the concavity of the graph of eeman..
ok HL students i think know best about this.
when i think that i was going down.... deeep down...
that is when i saw the light and try my best to climb the "mountain" even though it is hard.
in every difficulties, there's always easiness.

i'm thankful that He decided upon me, to undergo that mess.
where, now.
I STAND FIRM.
ISLAM ITU TINGGI DAN TIADA YANG LEBIH TINGGI DARIPADANYA.
[moral: jgn berlagak hebat sangat kalau tak ingat Allah sebab akan ada masa iman kita akan diuji]

well, Allah kan ada.
but still, kita akan hebat kalau kita ada Allah.
Allah akan selama-lamanya super duper hebat, walaupun kita tidak sujud menyembahnya.
cuma kita lah yang akan menghadapi MASALAH BESAR!!
this holiday,
dont forget to:
-USKAB
-ingat Allah selalu
-study, IB is in 47 days, [insha-allah].

like ainah wrote, we will spread around the globe within few more months. 
caryying one mission.
and one mission only.

when Allah is not in 'here'

salam a'laikum.

never thought this will happen again. well, He who knows the best. i'm just His servant. for that i redha. every words that came out of this mouth will be tested. every words that was written in this blog will be tested. and there you go aimi, you are undergoing a huge test right now~!

i think this is the longest test that i had ever gone through. and this might be the toughest, for now. it is very easy for a person to have doubt in his/her believe when Allah is not there, in his/her heart. when the heart is empty, not filled with love towards Allah... something else will take advantage of it. the one who had made a promise infront of Allah before. that he will try his best to mess around with humans' heart until they will accompany him in the an-narr [the Hell]. the Satan.

it is not easy when you are dealing with you own inner toughts. i tried my best to delete all the nonsense inside 'here'. but the temptations were too strong! i almost defeated. or had i? being paranoid of everyone for the whole week had made my scar even worst. as if like i can't find anyone that i can trust anymore. why? astagfirullah... it is not there is no one to be trusted. it is just me who's afraid to put trust on anyone. i was blinded by the word PARANOID. and i made the lovable people around me to suffer. for that, i apologize. 

walking with the face as if like 'ko-ape-hal?', had really effected others. and i hate it when my unstable mood and fragile iman do that to others as i hate it when people do that to me. but still... i did it. again, i apologize. i dont know where on earth does my strength had vaporise. before this, if anything happens, i could just simply said with a smile on this macho face, "Allah kan ada". and the problem was like just blown away.... but recently, i tried to do the same. keep on reminding myself that, "Allah kan ada"... "Allah kan ada"... it is just too hard to penetrate my own heart. Owh GOD!! it is hard, man!!

with less people occupying this college, i have more time to think about this unsolve problem. walking around the college alone, made me realise that i am such an ungrateful 'abd [servant]. in the morning, staring at blue sky with white clouds, listening to birds singing, observing miss spidey building her web. i have more time to think about the solution. that what was i tought i will. i did try to solve this problem. but i just cannot see the light. i just could not understand why am i too fragile right now? where is my semangat dakwah!?

 loving and craving tarbiyah from Him

alhamdulillah... last night, after the isyak prayer, recited the quran. before that, i asked Allah. "Ya Rahman ya raheem, please help me ya Allah. it had been too long. please Allah." and He told me indirectly from surah an-naml, 27: 59 - 64.

Say, [O Muhammad], "Praise be to Allah , and peace upon His servants whom He has chosen. Is Allah better or what they associate with Him?"

[More precisely], is He [not best] who created the heavens and the earth and sent down for you rain from the sky, causing to grow thereby gardens of joyful beauty which you could not [otherwise] have grown the trees thereof? Is there a deity with Allah ? [No], but they are a people who ascribe equals [to Him].

Is He [not best] who made the earth a stable ground and placed within it rivers and made for it firmly set mountains and placed between the two seas a barrier? Is there a deity with Allah ? [No], but most of them do not know.

Is He [not best] who responds to the desperate one when he calls upon Him and removes evil and makes you inheritors of the earth? Is there a deity with Allah ? Little do you remember.

Is He [not best] who guides you through the darknesses of the land and sea and who sends the winds as good tidings before His mercy? Is there a deity with Allah ? High is Allah above whatever they associate with Him.

Is He [not best] who begins creation and then repeats it and who provides for you from the heaven and earth? Is there a deity with Allah ? Say, "Produce your proof, if you should be truthful."   
the world is full of His greatness that proves He is the only God, but do we allow our heart to see them?

those underlined sentences and words really solved everything. Ya Allah, how I miss this feeling so muchos! then, i remembered that it had been a while since the last time i wake up early in the morning to perform tahajjud. simply recite the quran or zikr and slept. so ungrateful. as if like cukup syarat qiam. that was when the strong bond that i had built up between Allah and me had come to the edge of the clift. now i do believe that QIAMULLAIL is the time for us to meet Allah personally! it is the time for us to tell everything to Allah without being disturbed by the dun-ya matters. it is the time for us to strengthen our relationship with our Creator, ya Rabbal 'alameen. 

now i know how does it feels not to have Allah in 'here'. because it is being occupied by satan's incitements. so, as i asked Him for a new heart, i'll take care of this brand new heart sehabis hebat! the world seems so dark before, but when He is 'here', the darkness fade away and all i can see is the adorable faces that Allah had sent to me to help and lead me straight toward the right path, towards the light. insha-allah, this test had made me stronger. owh sekarang saya superduper aimirokishebatkeranaAllah! 

fresh air, tranqulity... thank you Allah. what else do i want?!
sometimes, people just need space and air to breath instead of attention from others.it is a long post, it is. you can stop now if you wanted to. because it ends here. ^_^

approaching zero

salam a'laikum.
 
situasi 1.
lokasi: concourse KMB.
masa: hari ini, esok ada test.

alamak GDC aku mati! bateri habis kot.
aku harus segera terbang pergi ko0p!!! beli bateri baru!!
harus cepat!! nak buat math, esok ade pre-IRP test paper 2!
mati la kalau GDC tak boleh gune!

situasi 2.
lokasi: di mana-mana sahaja
masa: iman sedang futur.

iman aku tengah down ni.
sedihnya.
aku rasa tak layak nak jadi hamba Allah lagi dah.
sedih.. sedih... sedih...
mati la aku masuk neraka nanti.

hurm... sahabat-sahabat...
tatkala GDC kita habis bateri, dunia kita bagaikan gelap hitam legam. betul tak? even kalau GDC kita jatuh atas lantai, kita pun dah macam, "hahhhh!!!". bukan setakat kita sahaja, tapi orang sekeliling kita akan turut terkejut dan macam, "habis ar GDC dia!".

tapi, kalau iman kita yang tengah jatuh, as if like tengah futur. apa kita buat? meratapi sahaja? ish ... ish... ish... tak adil betul! kalau iman dah nak habis "bateri", pergi la recharge! cari apa-apa cara pun untuk dekatkan diri kita kepada Allah. orang lain kat sekeliling, apa kita buat bila kita tahu sahabat kita tengah futur?!! buat ai donno? ish ish ish....

"Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Bertaqwalah kepada Allah dan carilah wasilah [jalan] untuk mendekatkan diri kepada-Nya, dan berjihadlah [berjuanglah] di jalan-Nya, agar kamu beruntung."
[al-ma'idah, 5:35]



kita bukan Nabi. graf iman kita bukan semakin hari semakin increase.
kita bukan malaikat. graf iman kita tidak constant untuk selama-lamanya.
tapi,
kita adalah manusia, graf iman kita fluctuates all the time. 

tapi janganlah sampai value y-axisnya menjadi negatif. kalau dah approaching zero, cepat-cepatlah mencari jalan untuk kembali mendekatkan diri dengan Allah.

insha-allah...

[maaf, kali ini sedikit ke-KMB-an. ^_^][
p/s: GDC adalah kalkulator yang sangat mahal dan berharga buat pelajar-pelajar IB.
