AURAT

Allahuakbar...

People think that I'm ex IIUM.
Why?
Because of "tudung besar" that I'm wearing.
Not up to date fashion.
Still wearing the old tudung.
haha.

I wanted to wear the tudung with pins, the thing is my pins are gone...

I tried wearing the tudung with awning, current fashion, but I feel strangled with the tight tudung around my neck.

Or is it just what I feel people might think of me?

I should be afraid of what Allah thinks of me... right?

Well, that's not very easy in this world of fashion...

But insyaAllah it can be done. :)

HAZA MIN FADHLI RABBI

Said one who had knowledge from the Scripture, "I will bring it to you before your glance returns to you." And when [Solomon] saw it placed before him, he said, "This is from the favor of my Lord to test me whether I will be grateful or ungrateful. And whoever is grateful - his gratitude is only for [the benefit of] himself. And whoever is ungrateful - then indeed, my Lord is Free of need and Generous." An Naml, 27:40 (Sahih International)

Subhanallah...

What a challenge
What a test

Ya Rabbi
What sins have I done?
What did I do to get such test?

He knows what's best
I believe so

Yes,
He was actually revealing to me
Have I said Alhamdulillah?
Have I thanked Him?
Have I shown how grateful I am?
Have I done what I am supposed to be doing?

Oh Allah,
Alhamdulillah..
Thank you Allah...

Oh Allah,
Forgive me...
Forgive them...
Forgive and forget...

So [Solomon] smiled, amused at her speech, and said, "My Lord, enable me to be grateful for Your favor which You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents and to do righteousness of which You approve. And admit me by Your mercy into [the ranks of] Your righteous servants." An Naml, 27:19 (Sahih International)

Thanks to you....

EFFECTS ON MY HEART

Assalamualaikum,


Subhanallah...

MasyaAllah...

Astaghfirullahal azeem...

As mentioned in the Quran,

"All He needs to do to carry out any command is to say to it, "Be," and it will be." (Yasin 36:82)

Who am I to say "No" to what He had already planned?

I cried, but Alhamdulillah, the sadness went away...

But today I need to face it!

"Those who submit completely to GOD, while leading a righteous life, have gotten hold of the strongest bond. For GOD is in full control of all things."
(Luqman 31:22)

"And put your trust in GOD. GOD suffices as an advocate."
(Al Ahzab 33:3)

P/S: Right after I received the good news last Friday, I had another "not good" news after that.

SMILE IN SADNESS

Assalamualaikum,

It was pretty surprising last week when I thought about everyone's life. There's a colleague having trouble with his family and father probably diagnosed to have a malignant tumor.. Another colleague confirmed to have missed abortion.. While my husband having difficulties to come out with an idea for his research, I have to bare with his difficulties and at the same time to continue to go on with my research..

ASTAGHFIRULLAHAL 'AZEEM..

What have we done to get all these tests?
Please forgive us Allah for all our sins...
Please guide us Allah to seek your rahmah...

2:155 Be sure we shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil), but give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere,


"Sabar dengan ujianNya
Syukur dengan nikmatNya..."

COMMITTEE MEETING

Assalamualaikum,

We went to see the Executive Officer for postgraduate students today after the meeting the committee had yesterday. There were 16 research proposals to be approved...

Alhamdulillah, she said that my research proposal was OK and need a little bit more of addition here and there...

But, unfortunately, Abang's research proposal might be held back because (of somethings not to be mentioned here)... He had already changed the topic for 5 times!!! Hmm, his supervisors should be held responsible for that actually... But, maybe there's hikmah from yesterday's discussion with one of our lecturers... This is another test from Him...

ALLAH KNOWS BEST!!
ALLAH KNOWS WHAT'S BEST FOR US!!
Learn to sabar and redha as we had tried to do our best!!

To my dearest other half...
Sabar, Redha, Doa..
InsyaAllah Allah will show you the way and make things easy for us all...Ameen.
Make doa, and always pray and hope... that the next research proposal title will be accepted by the supervisors and also the committee.
Even though it's late, insyaAllah it will not be too late...
Don't Be Sad...
Hugs...
