Reclaim Your Heart

Assalamualaikum w.b.t,
Alhamdulillah, after four months, I've got a chance to update my blog, pheeew, what a long time, isn't it ?

So, I'll update with a story about the fabulous event conducted on 15th April 2013. The event was called Reclaim Your Heart. A talk by Sis Yasmin Mogahed, one of the international speakers. You can see the trailer up there :)

It was started with a recitation of Holy Quran by Ustazah Zainab Talha. Oh by the way, the MC of the day was Sis Wardina Safiyyah. Then, there was a play by students from Sekolah Islam Adni entitled The Flowers of Gaza. They did a marvelous job even they were just cute little children. Their English were ah-may-zing. Kudos ! After that, the video entitled A Story That Has To Be Told was screened. It was about the story of people in Gaza. The people who have been visited Gaza shared their experience. Their experience which they could not and will not forget for the entire life. I really do want to go and visit Palestinians people, one day, inshaaAllahutaala, one fine day. I want to experience it myself.

After a long wait, then Sis Yasmin Mogahed's turn to deliver a talk. The participants were full of enthusiastic energy. The talk was such a motivation to all. It's awesome. Those were notes that I managed to write.

• Angels do not have choice, while us as human being (caliphs of Allah) do have choice. Never to allow arrogant to take over ourselves. It is our human nature to slip. So, we have choice to either repentance or be arrogant and blame others for the wrongdoings as what shaytan did.
• The example given was the story about Adam a.s and iblis. Look at the story of Adam. Even he did break the rules of Allah not to eat the forbidden fruit, he never blame shaytan but he turned to Allah and repentance. While vice versa to the iblis which he blame Allah for the reason he was thrown away from Jannah. 
• Our situation will not change until we change ourselves, until we acknowledge Allah & until we prostrate sincerely to Him as a true believer.
• The more you run for the creation, the more they push you away. The more you run for Allah, the more He comes closer to you.
• Allah is Al-Wadud, the source of love. If you want real love, you have to seek the One who created love. Only then, you'll find true love.
• When you put your trust in Allah and do something for the sake of Allah, Allah will return it back in the better form in this dunya and hereafter.
• Never lean on creation, you can use it but do not depends on it, for Allah is The One who controls everything.
• Know firmly that Allah will make way out for you so put all your trust in Allah.
• Sometimes, we are too focus on the gifts that Allah gave which are called as false attachment. So, Allah take it back so you can be detached from whatever things and refocused yourself and know that the true attachment you need is Allah 'Azzawajalla.
• If we want to be close to Allah during our time of hardship, we must be close to Allah during our time of ease.
• Every good deed that you do is not a gift from you to Allah, but it's a gift from Allah to you.
• When we are far from Allah, the heart becomes hard. When the heart becomes hard, the eyes become dry.
• If Allah leaves us in a blink of an eye, we collapse.
• We act. We strive. We put our effort. But remember, we have no power of the results. The results are from Allah. Work hard, but trust Him.
• Focus on Allah when ease, then it will be more easier when the hardship strikes you.

That was part of the talk. Hopefully, it helps :)

Assalamualaikum dear readers. 

Sanah Helwah, Ya Rasulullah :')

Assalamualaikum, alhamdulillah, mengikut kiraan tahun Islam, lepas asar kiranya kita dah masuk 12 Rabiulawal kan ?

12 Rabiulawal tahun gajah, lahirlah seorang kekasih Allah yg sampai sekarang dikenali sebagai Rasulullah S.A.W. iaitu Nabi yang terakhir hingga akhir zaman. Baginda mempunyai akhlak yg terpuji. Baginda mengangkat taraf golongan wanita yg pada ketika dahulu dianggap tidak berguna. Baginda penyelamat umat manusia daripada terus lalai mengingati Allah. Baginda sangat menyayangi umat baginda. Peribadi ini terbukti apabila di saat kematian baginda, baginda masih menyebut 'UMMATI, UMMATI, UMMATI'. Betapa sayangnya baginda kepada kita sebagai umatnya. Tetapi layak ke kita menjadi umat yg disayangi baginda ? Kita selalu sahaja lupa kepada baginda kan ? Tapi Rasulullah S.A.W tak pernah lupa kepada kita. Kdg-kdg selawat pun susah nak baca kan ? Ya Allah, kita ni sebagai manusia yg banyak sangat sangat sangat berdosa perlukan syafaat daripada baginda di akhirat kelak, tapi kenapa kita susah sangat nak berselawat keatas bagiinda ? Saya sendiri sebagai insan yg lemah selalu lupa. Jadi, sedikit sebanyak entry ni adalah untuk mengingatkan diri ini yg mudah lupa. Jom perbanyak kan selawat ke atas baginda sempena Maulidur Rasul ni. InsyaAllah kita tergolong dalam golongan yg akan memperoleh syafaat daripada baginda. Bertemu dengan baginda juga adalah satu perkara yg sangaaaaaaaaat indah ! Semoga kita dapat berjumpa dengan baginda, insyaAllah. Mari bersama-sama kita mencontohi akhlak baginda yg terpuji dan tingkatkan amalan-amalan sunnah baginda. InsyaAllah, kita akan selalu mengingati baginda.

Mari kita hayati detik-detik pemergian Rasulullah S.A.W. yg tercinta. Sama-sama kita muhasabah diri :')



Yang Baik Datangnya Dari Allah Dan Yang Buruk Datangnya Dari Saya Sendiri.
 Assalamualaikum.

Truly, Shaheera.

Be patient, Allah loves these kind of human beings, insyaAllah :)

BISMILLAHIRRAHMANIRRAHIM,

DAN MINTALAH PERTOLONGAN (KEPADA ALLAH) DENGAN JALAN SABAR DAN MENGERJAKAN SEMBAHYANG. DAN SESUNGGUHNYA SEMBAHYANG ITU AMATLAH BERAT KECUALI KEPADA ORANG-ORANG YANG KHUSYUK. (Surah al-Baqarah ayat 45)

Assalamualaikum. Let's start our day with a smile and say alhamdulillah because we still have a chance to live :)

SABAR, mmg susah nak jadi seorang yg sangat lah sabar tapi kita boleh try kan ? Sabar tu kan baik. Tak salah kan kalau kita terapkan benda baik dlm diri kita ? Allah suka orang yg brubah ke arah kebaikan. Kadang-kadang kita diberi ujian yg sgt berat, tapi sebenarnya lah kan, ada org lain yg lagi berat ujian nya. Terima kasih kepada seorang kawan saya yg telah banyak memberi kata-kata semangat ketika saya dlm kesusahan. Banyak yg dia cakap. Thanks a lot, my friend :'). She comforted me and said there's one girl that she knows who is currently has bigger problem than me and my problem is not even 1% of her problem, so I should say alhamdulillah. I know, there must be a reason behind this problem. Semua bnda ada hikmahnya, berpeganglah pada kata-kata ini, insyaAllah kita akan sentiasa redha dgn ujian yg dberikan. Bersabarlah, Allah nak uji tu sebab Allah sayang kita. Maybe Allah dah rindu nak dgr rintihan kita, kan ? Allah sentiasa rindu dekat kita, tapi kita mcm mana ? Kita ni manusia yg lemah, selalu sangat lupa dkat Sang Pencipta. Tapi Allah tak, Allah uji kita sbb Allah nak kita lagi ingat kepada DIA. Allah uji kita sebab Allah nak kita tingkatkan ibadah dan iman kita kepadaNya. Sometimes, kita ada rasa kenapa Allah buat kita mcm ni ? Kenapa ? Astaghfirullah, istighfar balik bnyak-bnyak. Kita tak boleh cakap mcm tu, sbb semua bnda sudah ditakdirkan. Kita kena redha dgn semua ni, terima dgn hati yg terbuka. Kita ambik yg positif, jgn fikir yg negatif. Semakin banyak ujian yg Allah bagi, maksudnya semakin sayang lah Allah kepada kita kan ? Kita sepatutnya bersyukur dpt ujian sbb Allah sayang dekat kita. Saya teringat video seorang pelajar UIA yg bermimpi berjumpa Rasulullah S.A.W sbb kesabaran dia menanggung ujian sejak dia kecik lagi. Ya Allah, bertuah nya dia. Sayu sangat bila baca kisah dia berjumpa Rasulullah S.A.W :') Semoga kita tergolong dalam kalangan orang yg boleh berjumpa Rasulullah S.A.W, insyaAllah. Sama-sama lah kita berdoa ye ?



Alhamdulillah, kita tidak diuji sebegini. Dalam video ni, dah terbukti yg Allah sgt syg kan hambaNya yg bersabar kan ? Jom kita jadikan video ni salah satu daripada semangat kita untuk terus menjadi orang yg bersabar. Semoga Allah membalasnya kelak :)Sabar itu kan indah :DD
