skeptikal atau optimis? sendiri pilih.

iye. benar. sudah tentu.
minggu ni minggu ke 16 aku kat Sabah Negeri di Bawah Bayu ni.
alhamdulillah. life's great. eventhough I miss my family like crazy.

mula-mula terasa sangat sedih bila Allah tetiba tetapkan aku akan ke sini.
padahal aku minta univ yang dekat dekat je dgn rumah.

tapi.
tetiap sesuatu tu mesti ada hikmah, kan?
Allahuakbar~
aku rasa tenang sangat sejak sampai sini. okey, sebenarnya memula sedih sikit + asyik teringat Palam dgn STJ.
but up until now, that soothing feeling is there. is there. seriously.
it's like, subhanallah.. now I see why Allah sent me here.

new experiences. new adventures. new friends. new lecturers. new environment.
these things actually taught me so much.

I can feel like I'm actually growing up. mak aiiihh..camne tak rasa dewasa, bila hang sesorang naik flight, sampai negeri yg tak pernah pergi pun sesorang, daftar univ sendiri kemas bagasi sendiri. lepas tu duduk dendiam kat sana sampai satu semester (ni bukan sesorang la)
feels like I'm a big girl now. hiks. with hidden child-like personalities. ehem.

btw, i got a room with BEAUTIFUL view. I always love to poke my head out of the window. the view is just, mesmerizing. I love the cloud patterns and the bluish sky personally.
so, let's continue the post with pictures, exclusively from Sabah >.<

just like a painting isn't it?

as the internet connection is bein really absolutely extremely slow. the other pics will have to wait.
till then, I'm gonna prepare some food for tomorrow's picnic with the usrahmates. weehuu. may Allah bless.

jya na!

when will we play our part?

bismillahirrahmanirrahim.

terima kasih Ya Allah atas nikmat kelapangan dan ketenangan hari ini.

but, wait.
there are some issues arousing. those that need our attention greatly. ( I can see that my previous entry is so relevant to the issues)

Palestine. this is not a new story. in fact, it has been too long for an oppression to keep happening, and it seems there's no end to this. Allahu Allah.

they are our brothers and sisters. even so, they didn't ask for more. it's more than enough if we could pray for their victory on the Muslims' land. the honoured land flooded with the blood of the syuhada'. masha Allah.

and it is just right if we don't support the one who oppressed them for all these years.
to be precise, financially.

so, there are some issues on boycotting products from some companies. I won't say much as I don't have much sources for that. you can google it yourself if you want to.

but I'd rather write about the alternative products that we (well, average people like me) can consider.

since I was small, junkfood / fastfood is a BIG no-no in my family. When my father was still alive, I couldn't even glance at the potato chips or the Twisties packaging. anything with MSG, preservatives, too much of colouring are banned from my consumation. but there are times my parents would be lenient and that times are hard to come!

I never know McD is a fastfood department like KFC or A&W, because those two is the only places of fastfood that I'm allowed to go during my childhood. and that is only once or twice per year. yeah, believe me, it was that seldom.

and I never liked fastfood. it makes me nauseous (is that the right spelling?=.=") somehow maybe because of the highly-contained preservatives and MSG. euww. but yeah, there are times where my curiousity on the food will be much higher than the concern for my health. honestly, I've tried McD, Marrybrown and whatsoever. but, now is the time for a change. no McD, they said. yosh!

I don't really have  problems to stop eating fastfood. that will keep my diet a lot healthier. but for some of those times, when I actually can crave over a burger, Ramly burger would be the best choice. it's locally produced/cooked and less preservatives (depends on the hawker) nyum nyumm~ my first choice, of course would be Burger Aktif, back in Kuala Pilah, where I used to spend my 5 years in the boarding school. that burger has a very high reputation among the residents :O

talking about beauty products.
they said Loreal is a no-no. we have to boycott their products. for more decent phrases, we SHOULD NOT use them.
okay, this company has a lot of sub-brand. I've once used it, since I know nothing about the company. but come to think about it, I think there're abundance of other beauty products. if you want that up-to-date and glamorous user feeling, Japans and Koreans products have lots more to offer on a reasonable cost (for some). and not to be left out, Malaysia itself has numbers of high-quality beauty products, on much lower cost! banzai for your pocket money on this 'should-not-use' thingy.

for the food and beverages. euww. I never really like soft drinks. but I do like isotonic drinks :)
I once loved Nestle products. but we have to be more considerate towards our family in Gaza. so, I tried a few alternative range of products. alhamdulillah, it works well for me. I mean, awesomely well :)

for instant milk powder, I pick Nespray from Fonterra over Everyday from Nestle.
for cereal beverages, I pick Vico over Milo/Nesvita. wow, Vico is really delicious. I love the cereal version, it does help my digestion process. alhamdulillah. and I will always love my Boh Green Tea >.<
for biscuits, I am always a number one fan of Munchys products. period.

and I've never went to Starbucks. I don't even know what they sell. sorry to say.
but I like Big Apples and King's Confectionery. wonder if they should be blacklisted as well? because if I was not mistaken, they are Malaysian companies. I guess so.

well these are my preferences of products. eventhough I have this little tendency to buy Japan/Korean products. I love their electronic products. period.


well well. what a long post. all in all, what I'm trying to convey here is let's help with what we can. DONATE (refer to my previous post). DON'T SPEND MONEY to which sector that can AID ISRAELI ATTACKS AND OPPRESSION TOWARDS MUSLIMS. and don't ever forget to PRAY for our families there.

when we're supressing our lust towards some products, there are so many other alternatives that we can consider. but the Muslims in Gaza, do they have the privileges to have any alternatives to choose whether to be attacked or not? whether to be killed or not?

answer yourself carefully now. because when the time comes when Allah will ask when did you play your part to support the Muslim brotherhood? to help the oppressed brothers and sisters?
we still have time. so when exactly will we play our part?

The Forgotten

assalamualaikum.


will it hurt, just to lift your hands and pray for them?
they are muslims, our brothers and sisters.
they have been forgotten. been oppressed for many years!

Allahu Allah.
show 'em the way.
embrace them with your blessings and love.
help them in getting their own right in this world of Yours.

aameen...

:) : selagi boleh tolong kewangan, bantuan etc, kita tolong. tapi kalau bab berdoa, takkan lah tak boleh langsung.  minta kesenangan diri sendiri dunia akhirat boleh kita bersungguh-sungguh. menyelitkan mereka dalam doa, yang tentunya tak sampai seminit pun, takkanlah tak mahu? jangan kedekut. segala yg kita ada ni milik Allah. termasuklah masa. peace no war >.<

Junction

assalamualaikum :)


have you guys ever feel that changing is hurting more than it seems?


"nak berubah bukan senang tau."

"yang kau pandai-pandai nak berubah konon ke arah kebaikan sangat ni kenapa? family kau biasa je pun."

"aku tunggu sampai aku dah betul-betul bersedia rasanya, baru aku akan berubah. kau tak pikir camtu ke?"

"kau ni dah kenapa? berubah ke bagai ni? aku tengok kau okey je selama ni? kira baik dah laaa tu"

"alah. biasalah tu. buat apa nak baik-baik sangat. biasa-biasa cukuplah."

so, yeahh. it has never been so easy, and it will never be =.="

sebab tu kita ni hidup kena bermatlamat. one of my high school seniors said, " The ultimate goal in one's life will be and only be for mardhatillah. ya, keredhaan Allah. apa-apa perkara yang kita buat, kalau niatnya memang kerana nak mencari redha Allah, dengan cara yang betul, inshaAllah, Allah suka. Allah redha. "

when you have a goal, an ultimate goal to be precise, and you put all your might, all your efforts towards it, Allah will definitely help you. Allah sayang hambaNya, kan?
 T__T

I used to be so ignorant. egoistic. nonsense. freakin' scary and was hard to get close with. I took things for granted. I always feel so right, and was hard to be corrected, to be advised.
I was. and I don't really realize that until on one very fine day, where Allah showed me how far I have been from the right track.


I failed my study. I ruined the friendships. I made them look at me with annoyed expressions. I hurt my mom, eventhough she doesn't show it, deep down I could see the disappointment. I couldn't face it right. everything was chaotic and miserable and unexpected.


and all I could ask myself is WHY.


and on that time. that very time. I realize what I've been missing all those years.
the goal. yeah, the ultimate goal of life. I was living a life without it! Ya Allahu Ya Kareem.

no wonder I've been so affected with what people think, more than what is right and what is wrong.
no wonder I don't feel happy with what I'm doing. and eventually I ruined it all.
no wonder it was so hard to accept the fact.

because I have no goal. no effort to please Allah. and what's worst, I even forget that Allah is always close to me. closer than my veins!

Allahu Akbar.
and that's when. I slowed my steps and stopped. right there, reflecting myself.

aku ni hamba Allah. bertuhankan Yang Satu, which is Allah. orang yang bertuhankan Allah, segala-galanya perlu dibuat kerana Allah. hidup mesti bermatlamatkan redha Allah.

tapi aku ni kat mana sekarang ni?
siapa aku? kenapa aku ada kat dunia ni? dan bukankah nanti kematian itu satu yang PASTI dialami semua makhluk? bagaimana pula kematian aku?

Allahu Allah.

and that was the turning point for me.
a major turning point.
and I'm still working on it. inshaAllah.

tentunya, perjalanan aku masih jauh. jauh gilaaaa. tapi aku masih tak nampak anything wrong with berubah untuk kebaikan. aku cuma tahu, ia kadang-kadang sukar because sometimes you're just not being in the rightful place that encourages something like this, but do have faith. Allah will help. definitely, surely and obviously. tak sakit rasanya kalau pengharapan kita hanya pada Allah kan?

jom, kita usaha.

Allah is closer than our veins kan? ask anything from Him, He will be sure to grant you IF it's the best for you. and if He doesn't grant you with what you've always wanted, He is preparing something BETTER for you.

that applies to all of us and should be more than enough. and it worths more than you'll ever know.

and Ya Allah. thanks, alhamdulillah. for saving me from that 'worldly hell'.


:) : post ini post serius. tapi hakikatnya saya bukanlah sama sekali orang yang serius macam batu. on top of that, what's crucial, remains crucial and should be the priorities. fullstop.

Words

assalamualaikum and hi to all.

it has been, well, quite a long time since the last post. yeah, tak ada idea lah, ape lah, macam-macam. and today, we're now in the 19th day of Ramadhan. Ya Rabbi Ya Kareem. thanks for still giving us the chance despite how sinful we have been. Allahu Akbar.


throughout this beautiful month, I get to reflect myself, as well as struggling to improve the level of  my own patience ^^, and the chance of reading the tafseer of the Quran, sriously it gives me a whole new perspective of this life.

the point is, don't ever be far from this ultimate guidance. ya, the Quran. read it, if you don't get the meaning, ask a scholar or whoever that really knows or seek a reliable information. you'll be overwhelmed of how amazing Quran is.


well. Quran is the words from Allah. there're advices, prohibitions, tells us why are we being born in this world, what do we have to do, what not. perfect guidance that you can't ignore.

speaking bout words.
of course we're all aware enough of the effects of words. they might heal, might hurt, might assist, might burden. it can be a savior, yet it might turn into a devastating weapon.

Allah.
forgive us for the words which You might hate.
forgive us  for the words that shouldn't be spoken out in the first place.


words from Quran. they're from Allah, the Creator of all beings. they heal. they do wonders to hearts who have faith. and, they have no comparison as Allah is The One and Only God and nothing can be compared to Him.


the sounds from the animals, are also the words to praise Allah in their own respective language. even our heart, says Rabb Rabb ( My Lord, My Lord), in every beat. the sounds of nature, are the unspoken words that praises Allah in every way. subhanallah.


but have it ever crossed our mind that how the words from us human, hurts each other. lying, denying the truth. making enemy. slandering. nau'zubillah. how exactly we use our words?
so, it looks like we're nowhere better than the other creatures. they keep praising Allah as their gratitude towards His mercy. and us? +__+


benarlah lidah manusia tu lagi tajam daripada pedang.


let's now mind our words, pal. have more consideration towards people's feelings. you'll then improve your relationship. inshaAllah. may Allah bless.


:) : it's time to hunt the Lailatul-Qadr !! let's race towards the end ! inshaAllah. and satu lagi, saya rasa saya dah jatuh cinta kat kucing - kucing. kenapa eh, depa ni comel bena? >.<

Ramadhan

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.

Guys, Ramadhan is around the corner! yeay!! okay, double yeay!! >.<

 Allahumma ballighna ramadhan. aamiin.

sooo excited. but what are we muslims, expecting from this beautiful month every year? instead of thinking just about the Eid, why don't we focus more on the beautiful and blessed Ramadhan itself first?

It's time to look for yourself in front of the mirror and ask yourself, "What am I really gonna do this Ramadhan? When Allah gives me the oppurtunity to celebrate this month, why will that be?"

WHY WHY WHY????? dengg. time's over >.<

it's because Allah loves us too much. masya Allah T.T

and in this month, oh myyy. it's full of goodness. full of barakah, the blessings. good deeds will be rewarded  multiple times over and excessive happiness. additionally, fasting is very good for our digestion system too. refer your Biology textbooks now :p subhanallah.

I don't think there's anything wrong in any of muslims' obligation. all of them are made specially for us, in case we forget. baik dari segi rohani, jasmani, emosi, intelek. Allah Maha Tahu. well, Allah jugalah created the forgetful us ni kan? jadi Dia jugalah yg tahu apa yg terbaik untuk creations Dia ni :)

dan tatkala kasih sayangNya dibuka luas seluas-luasnya ni semasa Ramadhan ni, gandakan usaha bertaubat. doa supaya dosa-dosa lama dicuci diclorox segala dgn segala rahmat Allah. inshaAllah. sesiapa yg terfikir nak berhijrah tu, it's time, it's time!! may Ramadhan make us stronger, preparing us, to be tougher with our choice throughout our short life >.<

may Allah give us another chance, to celebrate this long awaited month. may Allah, give us the chance to upgrade our iman, faith and devotion towards Him throughout the month and reward us the will to istiqamah in our deeds in being a better muslim and inshaAllah, a strong mu'min for the next eleven months.

guess it's time to make a self-checklist :)

write down what you want to achieve this Ramadhan. 

nak hafaz juz 'amma? nak hafal surah-surah yg kita suka? nak banyakkan solat sunat? charity for the homeless, orphans or the Palestina? you set up the goals.

dan berusahalah kita! mujahadah! Allahuakbar!

moga Allah redha dan hitung segala usaha.

and. the ultimate goal  mestilah sebab nakkan keredhaan Allah sepanjang kehidupan and hereafter.

in everything that we're working on. it's a must to do things, just to please Allah, kan?

ayuh! gambate ne!! >.<

seronok je main kamera walaupun gambar seakan tak ade motif  ==''

First of all....

The first post. Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.

Assalamualaikum and hi to all. Well, to those who found this site, specifically? (and to those who've been asked to find it. huhu)

This IS a brand new blog. As I’m also new in this hijrah. still learning and learning. Well, life IS a learning process. And heyy mu'min, the rest is only in the Jannah :)

English is not my mother tongue. So, yeahh ==' this site will NOT be fully written in English.

The purpose of making this blog? I just wanna write. But to hold a pen, write onto a piece of paper, and eventually lose it, it'll be a major no. I even hated my own handwriting. So forget it. Unfortunately, I do have a diary. But it doesn't look like one. dengg >.< And I also wanna share. 

"Sampaikan dariku walau satu ayat!" [HR Bukhari] 

To be honest, I'm that kind of person that loves to read back what I wrote in my younger years. kinda funny, though. But through this habit, I'll realize what I've been through all those years and what I've actually done to my life. hehs. Kind of  'self-reflecting' thing. And I can see how much I've grown too (not much really). I can do that to my blog too, right?        

And as I've mentioned earlier. I'd like to write and share. And there are loads to share, inshaAllah.  May this site, benefitting us mutually. bi iznillah.

Stay tuned to find out more. Wassalam >.<
