Diuji....Ujian

''In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful''


''Rabbi yassir wala tu 'assir''.... [ Ya Allah, permudahkanlah urusanku dan janganlah kamu menjadikan ianya susah]
{Sesuatu yang berlaku pasti ada hikmahnya. Hanya Allah yang tahu.}
Ramai yang menyatakan ayat ini sudah lapuk ditelan zaman. Tetapi kebenaran ayat ini diakui oleh semua orang...orang melayu kaya dengan pepatah atau bidalan yang mempunyai makna yang tersirat..hanya tunggu untuk dirungkai oleh sesiapa yang menghargainya...
Hakikat kehidupan, ada turun dan naiknya.

Hidup umpama roda, kadangkala di atas, kadangkala di bawah - juga ungkapan biasa yang diucapkan.

Namun..itulah realiti sebenar kehidupan...Semua orang mengimpikan hidup yang penuh dengan kejayaan, kesenangan dan kekayaan.. Tiada siapa yang merancang untuk hidup susah, miskin atau gagal seumur hidup... Tapi, cabaran dan dugaan akan datang silih berganti... Siri cabaran dan dugaan adalah satu tanda Allah menguji kita agar lebih mengingati kepadaNya.. Itulah tandanya Allah sayangkan kita, x mahu membiarkan kita terus alpa di dunia lagha kita... Saat2 kita ditimpa ujian, hati lebih dekat dengan Allah, memohon bantuanNya agar dipermudahkan urusan... [kan itu lebih baik]

“Menakjubkan urusan seorang mu’min, jika ia mendapatkan ni’mat maka ia bersyukur dan syukur itu sangat baik baginya. Dan jika ia ditimpa musibah maka ia bersabar dan sabar itu sangat baik baginya.” (HR Muslim & Tirmidzi)

Ujian adalah sebuah kemestian dalam kehidupan kerna orang kafirpun mendapatkan musibah dan kesulitan juga... Tapi janganlah kita meminta untuk diberi ujian oleh Allah SWT... Setiap ujian pasti sesuai dengan kemampuan kita, karana DIA Maha Mengetahui lagi Maha Bijaksana.

[Flashback....]
Rasulullah SAW adalah orang yang paling tinggi derjatnya disisi Allah, tapi ia juga orang yang paling banyak dan paling berat cubaannya. Para nabi as yang lain juga adalah manusia-manusia paling mulia dan paling dikasihi Allah SWT tapi mereka juga adalah yang paling banyak dan berat diuji oleh Allah SWT. Imam Syafi’i mengalami pengusiran dari Kufah ke Mesir, Imam Ahmad dipenjara dan disiksa bertahun-tahun, dan Imam Malik disiksa sampai mematahkan kedua tulang bahunya.

Mereka diuji, dan kita juga akan diuji.....

MIS+UNDERSTANDING

''In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful''


This might be a lame story for certain of you... Old doesn't mean useless ^_^

Caller : Hello, can I speak to Annie Wan?

Operator : Yes, u can speak to me.

Caller : No, I want to speak to Annie Wan.

Operator : Yes, I understand u want to speak to anyone. U can speak to me. Who is this?

Caller : I'm Sam Wan. I want to tell to Annie Wan that our brother Noe Wan was involved in an accident. Noe Wan got injured and Noe Wan has being sent to hospital.

Operator : Look, if no one was injured and no one was sent to hospital, then the accident isn't an urgent matter. U may find this hilarious but I don't have time for this.

Caller : U are so rude. Who are you?

Operator : I'm Saw Ree.

Caller : Yes! U should be sorry. Now, give me your name!!!

Operator : That's what I said. I'm Saw Ree.

Caller : Oh....God...

Oh, yes..pretty hilarious right??
So, as I giggled while reading through this joke. I promise to myself that I shall strive for clarity in communication. Maybe we can study this hadith in communication skill:

" Anas Ibn Malik reported that when the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to say something, he would repeat 3 times so that it would be understood. When he came to people, he would great them 3 times.'' (Al-Bukhari)

Subhanallah.... InsyaAllah, we try to speak clearly to avoid any misunderstanding... Amiin...

Doa Menghindar Syaitan

Terjemahan:

Aku berlindung dengan kalimah-kalimah Allah yang sempurna daripada setiap musuh dan kecelakaan, juga daripada setiap syaitan yang tercela. Aku belindung kepada Allah yang esa lagi mulia, daripada setiap musuh dan orang yang hasad , juga daripada syaitan yang derhaka. Dengan nama Allah yang maha pemurah terhadap hambanya dengan firmanNya “Sesungguhnya Kami telah jadikan manusia itu dalam keadaan sebaik-baik kejadian”.



Selalu titipkan doa mengiringi usaha mengulangkaji pelajaran... Semoga Allah memeberkati ilmu yang diperoleh... Amiin~

4th: Doa rabitah (versi KMB)

''In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful''

Hati ini telah bersatu
Berkumpul di peribumi Mu
Hati ini telah berpadu bersatu
memikul beban Dakwah Mu
Hati ini telah mengikat setia
untuk mendaulat untuk mendukung
Syari'ah Mu di alam maya
maka Ya Allah
eratkanlah ikatan yang ada
maka Ya Allah
eratkanlah ikatan yang ada

Kekalkan kemesraan yang ada
tunjukkanlah jalan yang benar
tunjukkanlah dengan cahaya Mu
tiada malap terangi alam Mu
Hidup suburkanlah dengan ma'rifah Mu
tapi jika ingin mematikannya
matikanlah sebagai Syuhada
dalam Perjuangan menegakkan
agama yang mulia
dalam Perjuangan menegakkan
agama yang mulia....



Doa rabitah menekankan perjuangan Islam...seperti dalam firman Allah dalam Surah at-taubah (surah ke 9), ayat 38-41:



[38] Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Mengapa kamu, apabila dikatakan kepada kamu: Pergilah beramai-ramai berjuang di jalan Allah, kamu merasa keberatan (dan suka tinggal menikmati kesenangan) di tempat (masing-masing)? Adakah kamu lebih suka dengan kehidupan dunia daripada akhirat? (Kesukaan kamu itu salah) kerana kesenangan hidup di dunia ini hanya sedikit jua berbanding dengan (kesenangan hidup) di akhirat kelak.

[39] Jika kamu tidak pergi beramai-ramai (untuk berjuang pada jalan Allah membela agamaNya), Allah akan menyeksa kamu dengan azab seksa yang tidak terperi sakitnya dan Dia akan menggantikan kamu dengan kaum yang lain dan kamu tidak akan merugikan Allah sedikitpun . Dan (ingatlah) Allah Maha Kuasa mengatasi segala-galanya.

[40] Mengapa kamu tidak mahu menyokongnya (Nabi Muhammad) pada hal Allah sendiri telah menyokongnya, iaitu ketika kaum kafir (di Mekah) mengusirnya (dari negerinya Mekah); sedang dia salah seorang dari dua (sahabat) semasa mereka berlindung di dalam gua, ketika dia berkata kepada sahabatnya: "Janganlah engkau berdukacita, sesungguhnya Allah bersama kita. Maka Allah menurunkan rasa tenteram dan damainya kepada (Nabi Muhammad) dan menguatkannya dengan bantuan tentera (malaikat) yang kamu tidak melihatnya . (Dalam masa yang sama ) Allah jadikan seruan (dasar syirik) orang-orang kafir itu rendah dan hina . (Sebaliknya) Allah jadikan dasar perjuanganNya (Islam) mulia dan tinggi Allah Maha Kuasa, lagi Maha Bijaksana.

[41] Berangkatlah kalian beramai-ramai (untuk berjuang di jalan Allah), samada dalam keadaan ringan (dan mudah bergerak) mahupun dalam keadaan berat (disebabkan berbagai-bagai tanggungjawab) dan berjihadlah dengan harta benda dan jiwa kalian di jalan Allah (untuk membela Islam). Itu adalah lebih baik bagi kamu, jika kamu mengetahui.

3rd: Effective Study Motivation Tips

''In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful''

Get yourself to pick that book up now!

Finding it hard to get study motivation? Have a big test coming up but just not motivated to study? Fallen back on your classes but still not able to get yourself to pick up the books?

Well, studying can be fun, interesting and exciting. Never label studying as “boring”, “painful” or “uncomfortable”. That way you’ll be pre-framing yourself negatively even before you start. You’d have lost the battle before it even began. In fact, don’t even call it a battle. Studying is a meaningful journey of discovery.

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

Useful Study Motivation Tips

1. Be Curious – get interested in the subject you’re studying

When you’re interested in the subject you’re studying, things become so much easier. You’ll be naturally motivated to learn and read about it. So how do we become interested in what we’re studying? We adopt a curious attitude. As long as you’re curious enough, anything can be interesting. Question it, use your imagination, get inside the subject, understand what makes it tick, find out how you can apply it in life, read real life case studies. There are many ways to make a subject interesting when you adopt a curious mindset.

2. Set a schedule and study at the right time

Set a study schedule everyday. It’s good to plan your day in advance. Set a specific time for studying, and a time for playing or relaxing. This way, you won’t worry about ‘missing’ your fun. You may be studying hard now, but you know that later on you’ll be enjoying yourself. So this keeps you focused on studying in the present. Here’s a tip : When planning your day, it’s always good to study first. If you think you should watch some TV or relax a little first before ‘getting down to it’, you’re making a big mistake. Doing that will only make it harder for you to start studying. The first step is always the hardest. Also when setting study schedules, schedule your studying time at the time of the day where there will be the least distractions. Also choose the time when you’re at your peak state to study. This means obviously not studying after heavy meals (where digestion will make you sleepy) and times where you’ll be tired (ie. late nights)

3. Remove distractions from your surroundings

Obviously this is very important for your study motivation. When you got the TV, phone, computer, bed, magazines etc nearby, you’ll be easily tempted to throw your books aside. Try to remove as many distractions away from you as possible. You don’t need strand yourself on an island with only your books. Just make sure that any of these distractions are not near you. When the remote is right next to you, you’re more likely to pick it up. Same with your phone, laptop etc. But if you have to walk all the way across to another part of the house to watch TV chances are you’ll be less likely to do it.

4. Set a study area – make it as conducive as possible

The environment can play a big part in your study motivation. Imagine studying in a dimly lit, hot and stuffy room with loud music on playing in the corner. Or, in a quiet room, bright, with the right temperature and good air ventilation. Which room would make you feel more motivated to study? If possible, have a regular study area. Make sure it’s conducive like being well lit, has ventilation, quiet and so on. Place all your notebooks, stationary, reference books in your study area. Make your study area as conducive to studying as possible.

5. Put yourself in a strong motivated state

Take 5 minutes before you start studying to put yourself into the proper state. Turn off any music, sit down, clear your mind and take deep breaths. Say a prayer to Allah for His ''redha'' and help. Visualize yourself happily studying and clearly understanding what you have learned.

6. Set Goals

Setting goals will give you more motivation. When there’s a target to aim at, we’ll be more determined rise up to the challenge and push ourselves to achieve it. The sense of satisfaction from the achievement is also a good confidence booster. And it will cultivate a studying habit. Set goals such as how many sections/chapters you plan to cover within a period of time, grades to score in tests and others. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final thoughts…

Remember, the toughest part in studying is to get started. As long as you are determined and push yourself to pick up the book, half the battle is already won. With willpower, determination and using the study motivation tips above, getting study motivation shouldn’t be a problem anymore!

2nd: Check Yourself !!!

''In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful''

Take a few minutes to ask yourself these questions and answer wisely:


- Do you know that you are traveling on a journey from which there will be no return? Have you prepared yourself for this journey?

- Have you taken provision from this transient world in the form of righteous deeds to give you comfort and soothe your loneliness in the grave?

- How old are you? How long you live? Don't you know that for every beginning there is an end and the end will be either paradise or Hell?

- Have you imagined how it will be if the angels come down from heaven to take your soul while you are heedless and having fun?

- Have you imagined that day, the last hour in your life, the hour when you leave your family and children, your nearest and dearest? That is death with all its agonies and the intense pain of the soul's departure. That is death....

- After your soul has departed your body and you are taken to be washed and shrouded, then taken to the mosque for the funeral prayer to be offered for you, then you are carried on the shoulders of men.... Where are you being taken? To the grave, to the first stage of Hereafter.... Will it be one of the gardens of Paradise or one of the ditches of Hell?


~*~ Take some times to think about all these questions... Remember that death can be any time.... Prepare ourself toward it....
