Commuting Tips

Wednesday, November 23, 2016

Assalamualaikum.

I just wanna share some commuting tips for you guys who travel to and fro (from workplace to home) on daily basis especially those using public transport i.e bus & LRT

Tips #1 RECITE ZIKRULLAH

1. Choose a zikr that you want to do during the journey. Eg: Going to work;  choose zikr Astaghfirullah ; Returning home: Choose another zikr

2. Recite your chosen zikr along the journey.

3. You'll be amazed at how much you do good that day ^_^

4. As simple as that.

Now, you're set to go!


Tips #2 RECITE QUR'ANIC VERSES

1. I know by heart that as Muslim, you must've installed one type of Qur'an app in your smartphone :)


2. Spend your time waiting for your destination by reciting quranic verses especially if you havent enough time to do so before going to work.

3. Embarassed? Afraid that people around would think you're so religious ? My advise is, give it a try first and you would feel better from time to time. After all, you are disturbing nobody :)


Tips #3 READ A BOOK

1. Pick a book of your choice

2. Enjoy the journey ^_^

3. Afraid of people staring?? If you're a regular train passengers, you would've noticed that the Chinese are so keen in their readings on the train. If they can do it, why couldnt you??


Tips #4 BROWSE THE INTERNET 

1. The time is just right for you to answer your friends' messages @ respond to your customers (in case you're doing online businesses, just like me :p)

2. Believe me, if you do this, nobody will stare@look at you unlike the previous two . Hehe. It's a normal sight whether you like it or not


Tips #5 LISTEN TO BENEFICIAL PROGRAMS


1. With your smartphones at hand, the world is at the end of your fingertips

2. Choose any programs @ tazkirah @ ceramah that you would like to listen to during your journey

3. Oh ya, use your earphones@headphones btw, so as not to annoy anybody ^_^

4. Or else, just listen to songs ;)

Tips #6 TAKE A NAP

1. This one I need not explain ^_^



Alhamdulillah. Actually, this is for sure only a bit from what you could have done. Invent yours. So long you're not wasting time, its just fine :)

Wassalam.








Hikmah

Tuesday, November 22, 2016

Assalamualaikum. 

Lama benar tak menulis di sini. Kali terakhir sebelum bulan puasa.

Jadi, hari ni nak kongsi mengenai satu tajuk pasal HIKMAH.

1. Setiap perkara atau kejadian yang berlaku ke atas diri kita, semuanya ada hikmah yang Allah nak sampaikan.

2. Hikmah ni kita boleh nampak hari ni, esok, minggu depan, setahun akan datang, lima tahun akan datang, sepuluh tahun atau mungkin tak nampak. Tapi, percayalah satu perkara; itulah yang terbaik untuk diri kita.

3 Susah tak nak percaya? Kadang2 ya. Lebih-lebih lagi bila kita tak suka benda tu; cth: barang hilang, duit hilang, dompet hilang, ada kematian, keputusan periksa tak cemerlang dll


*cth: Ust Dusuki cerita hikmahnya Allah menjadikan ia anak yatim di awal usia 8 tahun(kalau tak silap), Arwah TG Nik Aziz mengambilnya dan memeliharanya bagaikan anak sendiri, sehinggakan dihantar ke bilik pengantin pada malam pertama (ust dusuki anak sedara TGNA).

TAMBAHAN


4. Kita hidup atas dunia ni, bukan dunia nilaiannya.

5. Ada benda2 yang Allah bagi kepada kita, kita tak puas hati. Tapi, ada benda yang Allah nak kita belajar daripada apa yang berlaku tu (berbelit2 rasa ayat ni ^_^)

6. Hidup ni mulia bila kita ada ilmu. Kemuliaan ilmu ni melestarikan kehidupan. 


Contoh yang mudah dan ringkas: Apabila kita lulus ujian memandu, alangkah gembiranya rasa! Setakat lulus ujian memandu pun kita dah jadi sangat gembira. Apatah lagi, dengan ilmu2 yang lain.

Contoh lain: Sape2 yang menonton cerita Rudy Habibie, pasti kagum dengan Pak Habibie yang merupakan jurutera genius dari jerman. Hasil kegeniusannya, dia diangkat dalam masyarakat.

7. Kontranya, kegembiraan kerana harta ni bersifat sementara. Sementara sahaja. Cth: hari ni boleh bonus RM500. Pergi kedai, beli barang2, tengok2 dah habis RM500. Macam tu sahaja.

Nampak tak?? Semoga perkongsian yang ringkas ini banyak manfaatnya :)

Some updates from me.

Alhamdulillah.
Alhamdulillah.
Alhamdulillah.

I graduated for my second degree last June and attended my convocation just a fortnight ago.

Currently staying in Gombak, doing some freelance jobs here and there.

Till then. Wassalam :)


Action Plan for Ramadhan

Saturday, June 04, 2016

Bismillah. Assalamualaikum. 

Marhaban Ya Ramadhan. Some sharing from Ust Nouman Ali Khan video. The link is provided below :)


شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ الَّذِي أُنزِلَ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنُ هُدًى لِّلنَّاسِ وَبَيِّنَاتٍ مِّنَ الْهُدَىٰ وَالْفُرْقَانِ ۚ فَمَن شَهِدَ مِنكُمُ الشَّهْرَ فَلْيَصُمْهُ ۖ وَمَن كَانَ مَرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّةٌ مِّنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ ۗ يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ بِكُمُ الْيُسْرَ وَلَا يُرِيدُ بِكُمُ الْعُسْرَ وَلِتُكْمِلُوا الْعِدَّةَ وَلِتُكَبِّرُوا اللَّهَ عَلَىٰ مَا هَدَاكُمْ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ

SAHIH INTERNATIONAL:
The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for the people and clear proofs of guidance and criterion. So whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast it; and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days. Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship and [wants] for you to complete the period and to glorify Allah for that [to] which He has guided you; and perhaps you will be grateful. (2:185)

-Allah put special ease for us for fasting in Ramadhan, which we may not find in other months
-Allah wants ease for you and does not want difficulties for you
-If someone says, it is not difficult (it also has covered the part that it is easy), but Allah SWT with His mercy convey repetitive talks, to convice you
- If you fast in Ramadhan, it will be easy for you, unlike fasting in other months
-Allah does not only want us to fast in Ramadhan, but also strive for perfection in the month
-We dont have perfect solah, perfect wudhu', perfect fast; but these 30 days will help us to strive for perfection

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Get rid of video games, movies, tv
-Parents should encourage the kids to lessen the video games during Ramadhan
-Delete the apps
-It may be like oxygen for some, but this is a way for perfecting our Ramadhan
-Have to stop the things that distract us 
-Dont make excuses to watch the news, you're not gonna change anything, just relax (especially the 8pm national news)


2. Goal to memorize certain amount of Quranic verses this month
 -Whether you have never memorized the qur'an, you will just have to this month
-make a point to memorize
-Start by recitng one ayah, read it 10 times, recite the next ayah 10 times, then read ayah together 10 times
-download good recitation, listen, read it properly, look at the ayah and read 10 times, 
-dedicate a specific time to memorize
-set up an encouraging reward

3. Learn and memorize duas
-It will be really beneficial for us
-It will help you in the rest of your life
-Memorise the dua

4. For brothers dont stress your wife to cook lavish food all the time during Ramadhan
-it is not the month for a mountain of foods 
-eat light, eat normal
-how you will come to tarawih if you are to full during iftar
-make the most of the month
-we have to do better this ramadhan than the last one
-you're not in competition with anyone, but yourself

5. The things that you asked your kids to do, you do it too, together - for sisters - - Reciting, memorizing, listening to tafseer, listen to the explanation of the qur'an 
-Obviously you guide with examples
-Take the full advantage of this month


5. Try to focus your very best to understand the quran - for huffaz
-study 2,3 juz in tafseer 
-in years to come, you might be able to complete the study of tafseer just for allocating  time in Ramadhan

6. Get rid of the apps - for brothers
-get rid of the entertainment inputs
-come to masjid for fajr, make it a goal this year, to offer fajar n isya' in jamaah everyday
-Why? Because Prophet SAW said;it is like praying foran entire night,if both solat is offered in jamaah 
-Make this Ramadhan counts
-It is a special month for all of us
-Make it a special occasion for us and the family

Allahumma ballighna Ramadhan.
Wallahua'lam.

Sang Murabbi

Wednesday, June 01, 2016

Bismillah. Assalamualaikum.

In sha Allah, kali ni nak kongsi mengenai sebuah filem Indonesia, 'Sang Murabbi'.

Filem ni adalah berdasarkan kisah benar, perjuangan seorang kiyai di Indonesia, KH Rahmat b Abdullah.

*KH Rahmat Abdullah lahir pada tahun 1953 dan meninggal dunia pada tahun 2005.

Jika filem Sang Pencerah, mengisahkan KH Ahmad Dahlan, seorang ulama' pendiri Muhammadiyyah; kisah ini juga sangat bagus dan bermanfaat untuk ditonton. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Filem ni mengisahkan bagaimana KH Rahmat berusaha mengadakan majlis ta'lim dengan mengumpulkan  anak-anak muda dan menekankan agenda dakwah. Majlis ta'lim ini bahkan dituduh sebagai ajaran sesat dan berkali-kali Ust Rahmat dipanggil oleh pihak berkuasa.  

Selanjutnya, beliau memilih anak-anak muda yang betul-betul komit dan mengumpulkan mereka di sebuah tempat yang terasing dari orang ramai; juga untuk menyampaikan agenda dakwah dan tarbiyah. Juga dikisahkan bagaimana anak-anak muda para pengikut dakwah sembunyi-sembunyi untuk menjaga kerahsiaan (sir) sewaktu menghadiri program-program dan usrah mereka. 

Ust Rahmat sebagai seorang yang sangat sibuk dengan dakwah dan tarbiyah berusaha meluangkan masa walaupun sedikit bersama keluarga. Beliau juga tidak berputus asa berdakwah kepada adiknya yang terjerumus ke dalam jurang pergaulan yang negatif. 

Beliau kemudiannya terlibat dengan Partai Keadilan Sejahtera (PKS) di Indonesia.

Pada akhir filem, terdapat video pada hari peninggalan beliau dan ramainya orang yang hadir untuk menyolatkan jenazah Ust Rahmat serta komentar dari sahabat-sahabat ustaz. 


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Manfaat dari filem 'Sang Murabbi'

1. Dakwah itu tidak mudah
2.Tadabbur bersama ayat 10, surah as-Soff; perihal satu perdagangan yang boleh menyelamatkan kita daripada azab
3. Berdakwah itu perlu kepada berjemaah 
4. Dakwah menuntut pengorbanan yang tinggi
5. Saya percaya segala hal yang dikisahkan ini, inilah realiti yang berlaku pada rutin kehidupan murabbi kita, tok guru kita di Malaysia dan seluruh dunia


* My review doesnt look good, but I assure you, this is a very absorbing movie :)

Wallahua'lam.
