Living A Dream: Muslim World Tour

Salam & Hi!

I was bored to death! I just dunno what to do at home. I was screaming my lungs out (singing to some old Backstreet Boys songs) when i found this interesting video on youtube! Subhanallah... He is living everyone's dream! 

Muslim World Tour

This french Muslim guy, Gibran, he is travelling to the Muslim countries...for 2 years! He just started his world tour in Mecca and will end it in Madinah. 

My project is simple : I want to sleep every week in a different mosque, in a different country and interviewing the Muslims wherever I go. To show the reality of Islam through the videos I make and show the Muslims as they are.        -Gibran-

I think his effort in producing such video is indeed inspiring. May Allah ease his journey and inspire more people with the reality of Islam.

Bringing The Best Out Of Them

Salam & Hi!

Maybe i was out-dated, cuz i believe many people already knew about tis.

Anywhooo......

Its amazing (REALLY!) how tis young mother could teach her son and daughter to memorize Surahs of the Quran at the very early age. Watch the video below.. I promise you will feel sooooo overwhelmed! Subhanallah. 

See more to be inspired more.. Here is the mother's BLOG

I think the mother has inspired me in such (at least, at this stage), to set a dream to one day be just like her in educating my children. *man thats tough! but believe...nothing is impossible* Insya-Allah. 

Its nothing much more blessing for a mother than to see her children are all successful...in any ways.  And  plus, Islam promises a good child is the parents' share for the Akhirah. As well, the doa made by a good child for the parents will always be accepted. 

Reading the mother's blog, made me understand, why mothers always want the best out of their children. Also, i understand a lil more why parents (rather than focusing on mothers only) are always trying their best to give as proper education as possible for their children, so that... (up to a point where) no schools, no universities, even no working companies will ever want to turn down their child's application. Well, thats how world operates today, really! The best man wins!

p/s: And to prove how parents are concern about their child's education, the baby-educating toy company profits billions per year.

Tips from Aunt

Salam & Hi!

So here is the list of tips she gave me:

STUDIES 

1. Read before entering lectures

2. No point leaving the lecture if you did not understand what the lecturer has said

3. Read proper text (She suggested, wake up for Tahajud and read the toughest subject.. It will be hard at the beginning.. Will feel soo sleepy, but keep on doin it till it eventually becomes a habit.. The best time to read is in the morning... Pure Peaceful & Barakah)

4. Make short notes for future revision ( Especially in Medicine, as it requires memorization! Lottsss of it!)

5. Teach others / Study in a group

6. Seek the lecturers when feeling uncertain upon...anything! (Free Teacher's Blessing)

7. Make doa! 

* AFTER studying, AFTER developing a good relationship with Allah, AFTER putting lotsssaaa effort!

Make doa to Allah for guidance,

 "Oh Allah, show me what will be asked in the exam......

i) by moving my instinct

ii) from a discussion among study group mates

iii) from a question asked by a friend

iv) hints by the lecturers

Amiin." 

8. Only study from the short notes the night before exam

9. Make plans for the whole semester, few days before starting the new semester

10. Ask parents to make doa before each paper

MAINTAIN A GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH ALLAH

1. Wake up for Tahajud (talk to Allah... Tell everything that is bothering the mind and soul)

2. Read the Quran (even half a page per day!)

3. Make "serious" doa after each prayer (spend a lil bit of time, ask from Allah)

Truly from my beloved aunt~

I know some people will think these tips are somewhat, common... But as for me, i dont find they are that common after finding the first two papers was soo difficult. And i was about to lose hope! Thats when i realised i was too far from Allah. 

And the most eye opening situation was when i did not realised that the last question on Cardiac paper was the one that i had been memorizing the answer for ages.., until the last 10 mins before times up! The feeling was too horrible. 

p/s: My aunt was the Best Student back in her uni, i dunno where.. for sure in the States. She was nominated by TWO of her lecturers for that award. I got to know about this from my mom. =)

Children & Future Society

Salam & Hi!

The other day, i was watching a video from Nouman Ali Khan, entitle Of Aliens & Priorities. He highlighted that we are always concern on the tiny things when there are, a lot more SERIOUS, SOCIETY DAMAGING issues to be dealt with. The example he gave was, rather than questioning about the existence of aliens and whether or not to celebrate the birthday of Prophet s.a.w., we neglected there are youngsters who are using drugs!  Which i kinda agree with. 

In the video, what he is mainly trying to say is, there are a lot of Potential Muslims with Potential Intellects. So why not maximise the potential by exploring within the area of expertise and come out with something that is beneficial to the society. AGAIN! He is right! 

I came to think of this seriously.. And to be honest, i dont know whether i still wanna become a Dermatologist. I have been so interested in children's development lately. Why? Because i think we can make serious improvement to the society by intervene the children development. Good upbringings, great future human beings!

Therefore, i have decided to make some simple researches and do some readings to get to know about this matter more.

Pesanan Nabi Adam a.s.

Salam n Hye! =)

Heard this from the Terawikh Forum. I personally feel these 5 advices from Prophet Adam (pbuh) are very closely related to our everyday decision making process. Wise Life Advices!

Nabi Adam a.s. berkata:

1) Janganlah kamu berpuas hati dengan dunia

Aku telah berpuas hati dengan syurga yang di dalamnya terdapat kehidupan yang kekal, akan tetapi ALLAH SWT tidak menyukainya, maka aku telah dikeluarkan dari dalamnya.

2) Janganlah kamu berbuat sesuatu atas kehendak isterimu semata-mata

Aku telah menuruti keinginan isteriku, iaitu makan buah khuldi dan sebab itu aku menderhakai ALLAH SWT.

3) Berfikirlah dahulu sebelum kamu berbuat sesuatu

Jika dahulu aku memikirkan tentang akibat perbuatanku (makan buah kuldi), tentu aku tidak akan menyesal di hari kemudian.

4) Janganlah kamu melakukan sesuatu perbuatan yang kamu merasa ragu atasnya

Ketika aku makan buah khuldi, aku pun berasa sangat ragu. Namun kerana tidak berhati-hati, maka aku telah menyesal.

5) Bermusyawarahlah mengenai hal-hal yang penting

Jika dahulu aku bermusyawarah dengan para Malaikat, tentu aku tidak mengalami kesulitan.

A beautiful doa, would be even more meaningful if I could understand.. Subhanallah!

Kalau tertidur lain cerita.

Jangan masuk ke bilik air tanpa memakai alas kaki (selipar).

Takut kalau-kalau terbawa keluar najis, mengotori seluruh rumah kita.

Jangan makan dan minum dalam bekas yang pecah atau sumbing.

Makruh kerana ia membahayakan.

Jangan biarkan pinggan mangkuk yang telah digunakan tidak berbasuh.

Makruh dan mewarisi kepapaan.

Jangan tidur selepas solat Subuh, nanti rezeki mahal
(kerana berpagi-pagi itu membuka pintu berkat).

Jangan makan tanpa membaca BISMILLAH dan doa makan.

Nanti rezeki kita dikongsi syaitan.

Jangan keluar rumah
tanpa niat untuk membuat kebaikan.

Takut-takut kita mati dalam

Nanti rosak persahabatan kita hilang bahagia.

Jangan lupa bergantung kepada ALLAH dalam setiap kerja kita.

Sedekah itu memanjangkan umur dan memurahkan rezeki kita.

Jangan banyak ketawa. Nanti mati jiwa.

Jangan biasakan berbohong, kerana ia adalah ciri-ciri munafik dan
menghilangkan kasih orang kepada kita.

Jangan suka menganiaya manusia atau haiwan.
Doa makhluk yang teraniaya cepat dimakbulkan ALLAH.

Jangan terlalu susah hati dengan urusan dunia.

Akhirat itu lebih utama
dan hidup di sana lebih lama dan kekal selamanya.

Sebab semuanya untuk keselamatan kita.
ALLAH lebih tahu apa yang terbaik untuk hamba ciptaanNya.
