A Reminder To Be Greatly Grateful

If you think you’re good-looking, reflect on Your Creator who made you that way
If you think you’re intelligent, reflect on Your Creator who inspired you with knowledge
If you think you’re kind, reflect on Your Creator who is The Most Gracious who gave you those good qualities
If you think you’re fortunate, reflect on Your Creator who watches over you and protects you with His Glory
If you think you have special abilities, reflect on Your Creator who gave you something not all have
If you think this is all, don’t underestimate the Glory of Your Lord, but you can underestimate my ability, as I’m unable to come up with everything c:

And Verily Allaah Knows Best…

P.S: But beware of arrogance as it’s dangerous, and beware of making the mistake of looking down upon others

One more thing,… please don’t forget, if we think we’re in misery and misfortune, REMEMBER, it may be that Allaah is helping us by giving us that trial whereby if we’re patient in enduring it, He’ll forgive some of our MANY sins, or it could be that He wants to help us increase our ranks in His sight and make us better Muslims c:
And Allaah S.W.T Knows Best

The More You Give, The More You'll Get

"Hidup untuk memberi sebanyak mungkin..” – Laskar Pelangi

["Live to give as much as possible.." - (from the Indonesian movie 'Laskar Pelangi' which means 'Rainbow Warriors')]


A few days ago, this random thought came into my mind... I was thinking of the reality of the meaning of the phrase 'The more you give, the more you get' and found it amazingly true.

Some people may think that if you keep giving you'll keep losing, unless you're less fortunate then I suggest you save up first. But I thought, when we give others, which are usually in the form of gifts, and it usually makes them happy (I think it must make people happy, how can a gift be disappointing unless the person is expressionless or the gift is not so a gift itself), then wouldn't you be rewarded for it as a deed?

And I don't think your gift costs more than the reward by Allaah, maybe unless your intentions are faulty...and Allaah Knows Best.

So you give here, in your life, your rewards awaits you in the Hereafter InshaaAllaah, and Allaah Knows Best...

That's why in the movie 'Laskar Pelangi', the wise old man in the story emphasizes on how you should try to give as much as you can in your life, I guess because you'll be rewarded better in Hereafter...

And you shouldn't just think of those pretty boxes with ribbons that gives you excitement and suspense to what's in the inside, gifts doesn't have to be materialistic! Helping others can be in a form of a gift too, and there are many ways to help others.

I'm just reminding to my ability, and InshaaAllaah there's no mistakes in here as I'm spreading this thought...

And we often forget that indeed Allaah is truly Ar-Rahman; the Gracious, the One who gives a lot, the One who gives according to His Will...

Just ponder over the earlier words, and realise how simple it is for Allaah to reward us. He's just waiting for us to remember Him, and do things because of Him... Indeed He is Ar-Rahman... And also Ar-Raheem; The Merciful, The Most Forgiving...and He is More than just that, more than we can imagine...

InshaaAllaah, we all will improve to be better Muslims, to be the grateful creation of The Creator, and InshaaAllaah this benefits...

And Allaah Knows Best

And may the blessings of Allaah be upon you, and may He grant us good tidings and let us all die in Fitrah, in Islaam, in Imaan...

Eid Mubaarak!~

Eid Mubaarak to all of you!~

Some random things that people often get confused about regarding Eid:

1- It's not the Islaamic new year (Islaamic new year's on 1st Muharram according to Islaamic calendar)
2- It's just for a day (only on 1st Syawal according to Islaamic calendar)
3- Don't get mixed up with culture & religion, cuz there are some things that Malays do but Islaam don't teach, like traditional food for example, like ketupat.
4- Ramadhaan is better than Syawal if you wanna compare the advantages
And there should be more...and Allaah Knows Best...

So, anyway, once again, Eid Mubaarak to all of you, may Allaah's blessings be upon you, and just for an update, I recently got ideas for more stuff, and if Allaah wills, I'll publish them soon.

Peace be upon you~ c:

When Farewell's More Than Just A Departure...

As the tiny star gets tired of sprinkling some of its own light to the other dimming ones, it slowly fades as the others shine brighter... And when they shine brighter, they'll remember the little star, by then it has disappeared, but has left behind some of its light for the others to use...

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

"Don't go..."
"Don't cry..."
I can remember me telling you not to go, and you told me not to cry... But you didn't listen to me, and neither did I...


'We all know we don't live forever... We'll all part from each other one day, but Allaah will forever be with us... So, I just pray that with His Will, you and I will meet again in His Paradise...'

"Please Understand.."

Ameer was staring on the ground, looking disturbed and worried while the rest of his friends; Ammar, Yusuf and Bilaal, were chatting cheerfully. Ammar noticed Ameer's strange behaviour. He placed his hand on Ameer's shoulder and asked him:

"Hey, what's wrong?"

"No, nothing. Hey guys, if...if I did something wrong, please tell me alright?" Ameer said with a smile.

His friends were confused. Bilaal spoke:

"Hey are you okay? I don't recall you upsetting us or doing anything wrong recently. Is there anything disturbing you?"

"No", Ameer answered, "I mean, remind me anytime if you see me make a mistake, alright?"

"Okay. InshaaAllaah", they replied as Bilaal shrugged his shoulders.

Ammar stared at Ameer who continued to stare into space, deep in thought. After the friends greeted each other off and dispersed, Ammar confronted Ameer.

"Ameer. Seriously tell me bro, what's wrong?"

"What? About what?"

"You're really strange, man. Did you make a mistake or something?"

"Oh, about the little favour earlier?"

"Yeah," Ammar nodded.

"Can't I just ask you guys to remind me? I was just reminding you to remind me."

"Seriously, what happened? It's just too random to be a coincidence."

"Okay fine, I'll tell you honestly to take the worry off your mind, okay? Honestly, it's like this. I've been advising a lot of people and I kinda noticed that there's a lot to advise around me. I'm just afraid...I'm just afraid that I myself am making a mistake which I can't see, and I don't want that to happen. So, just help me with that, please."

"We're an Ummah, Let's do this together~"

There were these 2 sisters in Islaam who were both classmates and close friends. One of them had made a mistake of getting into a pre-marital relationship which ended, and she tries to change, but as a youth, of course she finds herself caught up in confusion sometimes. Her friend instead, never accepted the idea of the boyfriend-girlfriend thing, but she knows everyone makes mistakes, and the fact that her friend has ended it was a relief. So, one day, she found her friend’s updated relationship status written as ’separated’. She was quite disappointed, but she tried to advise and remind her friend nicely, and sent her a message:

Salaam upon you.

Hey!!!
No, no, no… It’s a new chapter remember? It’s not ’separated’, you were never ‘officially together’. Come on, I thought you’re serious being over and done with it. It’s finished. Now your main concern is your studies, and being a Muslim girl is forever your main concern.

Come on, I’m still trying too… I have my own trials that I face too. Everyone has. But sister, let’s put it this way InshaaAllaah…
We’re both cold and shivering in the middle of a chilly downpour. You missed your foot and fell on a puddle, I grab your hand and pull you up and we both continue our journey, walking towards the shelter.

If I can use these, InshaaAllaah~:

* “A believer is like a brick for another believer, the one supporting the other.” (Bukhâri 3 /626 and Muslim 4/6257)

* And hold fast, all of you together, to the cable of Allah, and do not separate… (Al `Imran 3: 103)

We’re an Ummah. Let’s do this together~ c;

True Bliss

و الرّبَّ أدعُو مُخْلِصًا, أنتَ رَجَائِي
أبْغِي إِلَهِي جَنّةً, فيها هَنائي
And to The Lord I supplicate (du'a) sincerely, You are my Hope
I desire, My Lord, Paradise, in it is my bliss

(فرشي التراب Dust Is My Bed)


We all crave for bliss...of course, we're humans. But what's truly bliss? That, we have yet to know...
Look around you. Do you think bliss revolves around a couple walking on a path, holding hands?
Or a group of friends hanging out, and laughing about something only they know...
Or maybe the many cosmetics and clothes we buy again and again...

Don't you think you'll ever get sick of it? And if you do, do you think that's bliss? And if you don't, do you think it'll last?

Look, this is just another group of words to ponder on... And so, what do you think True Everlasting Bliss is?
In my opinion, in MY OPINION, it's beyond our knowledge, and it's the reward safe and sound with our One Lord, for those who abide by Him, who does things for the sake of Him... And after all, indeed only Allaah S.W.T knows what exactly True Bliss is...

(Hope this wasn't like a disappointing cliff-hanger to you...And hope you'll find that Bliss InshaaAllaah [With Allaah's will])
