the prayer of guidance

2012-02-15T00:57:00.002+08:00

"O Allah! I ask guidance from Your knowledge, And Power from Your Might and I ask for Your great blessings. You are capable and I am not. You know and I do not and You know the unseen. O Allah! If You know that this job is good for my religion and my subsistence and in my Hereafter. Then You ordain it for me and make it easy for me to get, And then bless me in it, and if You know that this job is harmful to me in my religion and subsistence and in the Hereafter. Then keep it away from me and let me be away from it. And ordain for me whatever is good for me, And make me satisfied with it. "

"O you who believe, persevere, and excel in endurance, and strengthen each other, and fear Allah, that you may be successful." (3:200)

anyway

2012-01-30T23:13:00.000+08:00

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered; Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;

Give the world the best you've got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and your God;

It was never between you and them anyway.

-Mother Teresa-

"If God helps you, none can overcome you; but if He forsakes you, who then can help you after Him? Therefore in God let the believers put all their trust" (3:160)

Ya Allah, berikanlah ketaqwaan kepadaku dan sucikanlah ia, kerana Engkaulah sebaik-baik Tuhan yang menyucukan , Engkau pelindung dan memeliharanya. Ya Allah, aku memohon perlindunganMu dari ilmu yang tidak bermanfaat, hati yang tidak khusyuk , nafsu yang tidak puas dan doa yang tidak dikabulkan."

this week, most malaysians in harimau mode i believe dek mana dengan garangnye malaysia won gold medal in sea games few days back. mmg ade ONG. ehehe. and the crowd of 30,000 flooded stadium nasional bukit jalil tonite to support Malaysia team for Olympic qualifying. pretty obvious, our team was exhausted on the 2nd half. tho they tried hard to win the battle, the luck wasnt there.

of the 2 games i watched, something amazed me. the similarity. the indonesian player, i cant remember his name, who took the penalty and scored, performed sujud syukur. subhanallah. same goes to syirian players. the whole team performed sujud syukur right after the referee end the game. masya Allah.

menangislah sampai puas kalau itu boleh kuatkan kamu. tapi jangan terus rebah tanpa cuba berdiri semula. kesakitan itu sementara. redhalah. biar kamu lega. dan lihatlah betapa ajaibnya kekuatan kamu. semalam kamu meraung seperti gila. tapi arinih kamu ketawa riang seperti semalam itu tak pernah pun kamu lalui.

memang luka itu tinggalkan parut. parut itu untuk ingatkan kamu. kita hanya mampu merancang. namun, perancangan tuhan itu yg terbaik. rugi lah kamu kalau kamu terus-terusan tak mahu cuba berganjak. lawanlah selagi mampu. menang itu satu penghargaan buat kamu.

ingatlah saat kamu rasa kekosongan. kosong yg teramat. dekatlah hati kamu dengan sang Pencipta. sujudlah pada Nya. ketenangan itu akan beransur datang. ruang-ruang kosong sedikit demi sedikit dipenuhi bunga-bungaan.

derita itu bukan pilihan kalau bahagia yang kamu pilih.

the past is gone forever. today is all that you have. leave the future alone until it comes. everything will occur to afire ordainment. so dont be sad :)

"And certainly We shall test you with something of fear, and hunger, and loss of wealth, and lives, and fruits. And give glad tidings to those who are patient." (2:155)

i dont wanna let go.

i never wanna let go.

sorry for the damage.

'bila engkau memandang segalanya dari Tuhanmu, yang mencipta segalanya, yang menimpakan ujian, yang menjadikan sakit hatimu, yang membuat keinginanmu terhalang, serta menyusahkan hidupmu, pasti akan damailah hatimu kerana masakan Allah sengaja mentakdirkan segalanya untuk sesuatu yang sia-sia, bukan Allah tidak tahu deritanya hidupmu, retaknya hatimu, tapi mungkin itulah yang Allah mahukan kerana Allah tahu hati yang sebeginilah lebih mudah lunak dan mudah dekat dan akrab denganNya'

love is in the air

2011-08-18T20:35:00.000+08:00

Love is in the air!

…Or at least that’s what advertisers want you to think this month. While it’s nice to express your love often, Valentine’s Day comes once a year, leaving you no choice but to do so or risk seeming heartless. For the owners of floral boutiques and chocolate shops, Eid comes in February.

But even amidst such commercialized affections, one can hardly keep from thinking about those they love. And while we do so, we are inevitably faced with some pivotal questions. I was reminded of some of those questions when I reflected on something a friend of mine had told me. She described how it felt to be with the person she loved. In her words, the whole world disappeared when they were together. The more I reflected on her statement, the more it affected me, and the more it made me wonder.

As humans, we are made to feel love and attachment towards others. This is part of our human nature. While we can feel this way about another human being, five times a day we enter into a meeting with our Lord and Creator. I wondered how often we ever felt the whole world disappear while in His presence. Can we really claim that our love for Allah is greater than our love for anyone and anything else?

So often we think that Allah only tests us with hardships, but this isn’t true. Allah also tests with ease. He tests us with na`im (blessings) and with the things we love, and it is often in these tests that so many of us fail. We fail because when Allah gives us these blessings, we unwittingly turn them into false idols in the heart.

When Allah blesses us with money, we depend on the money rather than Allah. We forget that the source of our provision is not and never was the money, but rather it was the giver of that money. Suddenly we’re willing to sell alcohol to avoid losing money in our business, or we need to take out loans with interest to feel secure. In so doing we are foolishly—and ironically—disobeying the Provider in order to protect the provision.

When Allah blesses us with someone that we love, we forget that Allah is the source of that blessing, and we begin to love that person as we should love Allah. That person becomes the center of our world—all our concerns, thoughts, plans, fears, and hopes revolve only around them. If they are not our spouses, we are sometimes even willing to fall into haram just to be with them. And if they were to leave us, our whole world would crumble. So now, we have shifted our worship from the Source of the blessing to the blessing itself.

Allah says of such people: “And [yet], among the people are those who take other than Allah as equals [to Him]. They love them as they [should] love Allah. But those who believe are stronger in love for Allah.” (2:165)

It is because of this tendency to lose sight after Allah has bestowed His blessings that He warns us in the Qur’an when He says: “Say, [O Muhammad], ‘If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your wives, your relatives, wealth which you have obtained, commerce wherein you fear decline, and dwellings with which you are pleased are more beloved to you than Allah and His Messenger and jihad in His cause, then wait until Allah executes His command. And Allah does not guide the defiantly disobedient people.’” (9:24)

It is important to note that all the things listed in the above ayah (verse) are halal (permissible) to love and are, in fact, blessings in and of themselves. In fact, some of those blessings are signs of Allah. On the one hand, Allah says: “And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquility in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.” (30:21)

But on the other hand, Allah warns: “O you who have believed, indeed, among your wives and your children are enemies to you, so beware of them.” (64:14)

The warning in this ayah is critical. Our spouses and our children are listed here because they are among the blessings we love the most. And it is in that which you love most that you find the greatest test. So if conquering that test means seeing through a storm of greeting cards and roses to a greater love that awaits, then so be it. And when could that be more relevant?

Because after all, love is in the air.

people are brought together for a reason. everything happens for a reason. i thank Allah for the meeting. may Allah opens his heart to Islam and guides us for a better living.

"So remind (O Muhammad), you are only an admonisher. You are not over them a controller." (88: 21-22)

a reminder

2011-08-07T13:00:00.000+08:00

"O Allah, if tonight there is hatred in our hearts, change it to love. If our hearts are dirty, make them clean. If our hearts got hurt, heal them. O Allah, please see our tears. Change the sorrow of anyone reading this prayer into happiness. Reserve Your Mercy for us. Forgive our sins O Allah. Ameen."

"O you who believe, avoid much suspicion, indeed some suspicions are sins. And do not spy, nor should any one backbite the other. Would any among you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother, you would hate it. And fear Allah. Indeed, Allah is Acceptor of repentance, All Merciful." (49:12)

why we wanted to please people more than we should please God?!

“Ya Allah! Janganlah Kau serahkan diriku pada selain-Mu, janganlah Kau serahkan diriku pada diriku sendiri walau sesaatpun atau waktu yang lebih singkat dari itu. Perbaikilah urusan hidupku dunia dan akhirat seluruhnya.”

color fact

yellow is a primary color. warm, cowardice, caution, fearful, bright. the color of the sunny disposition, the idealist. intellectuals love yellow. it takes more chemicals in the eye to see the color yellow. yellow can have some negative effects; in convalescent homes it makes older people shake as it affects their minor motor movement. as you get older you tend to dislike yellow because it can make you feel anxious or angry. yellow enhances concentration and speeds metabolism.

i was damn ~~sleepy~~ malas nak siapkan my work tadi. this week was a bit off track due to my overrated feeling on ~~someone~~ something. haishhh.

so i decided to bake instead of procrastinate on unnecessary things. marble cake. dulu 1st attempt x jadi. frust menonggeng. so kali nih kena cuba lagi. ehehe. this week alone, i dah buat oreo cream cheese cupcakes n cream caramel. syabas! ehehe.

tho im happy, i finally berjaya buat marble cake yg cantek (dan sedap) tapi sedih jab. i telah merosakkan my mom's oven (yg i cilok dr kedah)! walaupun oven tu dah uzur, i think dah almost 15 years adalah, tapi i tetap sayang die. byk berkhidmat tu hah. something wrong with the door. i hammered the door leg and yeah i screwed it up. it stuck! since i dah ready smua nak bakar, i terpaksa jugaklah bake my cake dgn pintu yg terbuka. uhukkk. ok tipu. mmg la pintu tak bleh tutup, tapi i doubt cake tu akan masak kalau i left open. so i used tray to replace the door. berusaha btol kan. eheh. nasiblah berjaya.

see... inilah hasilnya. sedap! ehehe... eh seriyes sedap. hahahah... tak tipu. kali nih mmg angkat bakul puji diri sendiri :p try lah resipi nih kalau tak percaya kesedapannya ;) ehehe...

1 3/4 cups flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

3/4 cup butter

1 1/4 cup sugar

2 eggs

3/4 cup milk

1 tsp vanilla

masuk jek smua skali n mixing sampai putih melepak dan bakar! senang kan? gudluk! eh lupa, yg recipe i bagi tu butter cake jek, kalau nk marble kan die, amek milo celoreng kan dlm adunan yg telah mix kan tu ;)

dan ini martha stewart's oreo cream cheese cupcakes i baked aritu. recipe dah mixed up so later la i share k ;)

ok dah cukup bermalas2an utk arinih. jom sambung keje! btw, best tau work from home :p
