Salam Tahun Baru 2020

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim

Lamanya saya meninggalkan blog ini bersawang. Atas beberapa tanggungjawab lain, saya hampir melupakan ruangan ini untuk menulis semua catatan kehidupan.

2019 sudah pun berlalu pergi, dan hari ni sudah pun hari kedua dalam tahun 2020. Banyak kenangan manis dalam tahun 2019, begitu juga beberapa kenangan pahit sebagai perencah asam garam kehidupan.

Antaranya yang boleh dikongsikan di sini adalah seperti berikut:


Afeef memasuki dunia baru, alam tadika dengan penuh kesedihan tetapi Alhamdulillah dia menunjukkan progres yang sangat baik. Belajar banyak perkara baru dan mendapat keputusan yang cemerlang setiap kali peperiksaan menjelma. Tahniah anak ibu! 


Saya belajar aktif menulis dalam mewakili sebuah NGO. Banyak tulisan-tulisan yang disiarkan dalam media tempatan, dan ia adalah pencapaian yang membanggakan buat saya untuk menyumbang kepada masyarakat dalam dunia penulisan.

Dalam dunia akademik pula, saya berjaya terbitkan beberapa artikel di jurnal tempatan. Masih belum menembusi jurnal bertaraf Q1 (ia menjadi target untuk tahun 2020). Malah, dua geran telah diperolehi dengan menjadi PI pada tahun ini. Alhamdulillah! Teruja untuk berkongsi juga bahawa saya telah disahkan jawatan pada akhir tahun, dan moga perjalanan akademik saya semakin cemerlang dari tahun ke tahun yang lain.

Sebuah anekdot diterbitkan pada akhir bulan Ogos sempena catatan ke Pesta Buku. Dunia buku memang tidak pernah menghampakan!


Berkisar tentang buku, target yang hendak dicapai tidak dapat dicapai sepenuhnya. Tetapi saya berjaya menghabiskan 40 daripda 60 buku yang disasarkan. Target yang sama untuk tahun 2020, dan saya akan cuba mencapainya, InsyaAllah.


Tidak dapat dilupakan kenangan 'balik kampung Afeef' pada bulan Julai. Alhamdulillah atas nikmat graduasi dan kenangan belajar di Tanah Inggeris tersebut. Ia sebuah perjalanan yang tidak akan dilupakan sepanjang hidup.

Saya juga menerima berita gembira pada November 2019. Berita ini akan dikongsikan jika sesuai pada masanya insyAllah.

Atas semua nikmat yang diperolehi, tiada tempat yang dituju melainkan rasa syukur kepada Tuhan yang Maha Pemberi, Maha Pengasih lagi Maha Penyayang. Dia yang memberi rasa bahagia, dan Dia juga berhak untuk menarik segalanya. Semoga Allah jauhkan keluarga kami dalam segala ujian dan mala petaka, dan mengingatkan kami agar sentiasa kembali pada NYA dan sentiasa menjadi hamba yang bersyukur atas setiap nikmat dan ujian.

Alhamdulillah
Alhamdulillah
Alhmadulillah

Semoga tahun baru 2020 ini memberi sinar bahagia yang lebih cerah. Semoga tahun ini lebih baik dari tahun-tahun yang sebelumnya. Dalam masa yang sama, semoga Allah berikan ketabahan buat kami jika ditimpa sebarang ujian, jadikan kami bersedia untuk semua yang baik dan kurang baik, dan sentiasa beringat dalam apa juga urusan.

Amin.

Dua Bau Syurga

Syurga I

Salam Takziah buat keluarga Faisal Hamdi dan isterinya, kawan kepada suami kerana kembali anak mereka kepada Sang Pencipta yang Menghidupkan juga Mematikan. Anak itu adalah anak syurga yang menanti ibu bapanya di syurga juga.

Semoga mereka tabah dan redha di atas segala ketetapan Tuhan. Semoga Tuhan hadiahkan keindahan sabar buat mereka dan rezeki lain yang tidak disangkakan..

Syurga II

Salam Tahniah buat Ealyana dan Iffwat atas kelahiran cahaya mata kedua di bumi Birmingham. Alhamdulillah urusan melahirkan dipermudahkan biarpun menghadapi pelbagai cabaran lain.

Semoga anak yang lahir itu menjadi mujahid yang soleh (baik) dan musleh (mengajak orang lain bersama-sama melakukan kebaikan), terpelihara imannya dalam melangkah ke alam dunia yang penuh pancaroba.


*Bau syurga...

Hujung Minggu Yang Bermakna


Dengan Nama Allah Yang Maha Pengasih lagi Maha Penyayang. Selawat dan salam ke atas junjungan baginda Rasulullah sallahu'alaihi wasallam dan ahli keluarganya..

Alhamdulillah!

Nikmat hujung minggu lepas memang sangat bermakna.

Memang sengaja tidak memaklumkan kepada bonda dan ayahanda untuk kepulangan kali ini. Takut mereka tertunggu-tunggu. Sengaja juga mencipta "Suprise" agar bonda senangkan hatinya selalu. Walaupun hanya dua hari yang berlalu pantas, saya berharap agar senyum dan tawa bonda ayahanda terus mekar bahagia selamanya.

 Senyum bonda yang sangat besar ertinya

 Tasik Merdeka menjadi saksi. Sayu lihat wajah ayah yang makin kurus....

 Ada kisah di sebalik jambatan ini. Kesiyan adik! hehe

 Kejutan demi kejutan buat bonda. Selamat ulangtahun ke 62 buat bonda. Sambutan ini dibuat awal sedikit. Bonda dilahirkan pada 25 September 1950. Semoga dipanjangkan umur dan dikurniakan kesihatan, kesejahteraan, kebahagian dunia dan akhirat..


p/s: Kek itu sangat sedapppppp~ jutaan terima kasih buat kak Aida yang banyak bertungkus lumus menjayakan hujung minggu yang bermakna ini. Love u sooooo much!

Sekalung Doa buat Emak


Dengan nama Allah, Yang Maha Pemurah lagi Maha Penyayang, Yang memberi penyakit dan Yang menyembuhkan, Yang menghidupkan juga mematikan... Saya bersaksi bahawa tiada Tuhan yang disembah melainkan Allah dan Nabi Muhammad itu adalah pesuruhNya yang membawa Rahmat ke sekalian alam...

Ya Allah....

Lemahnya saya saat ini. Bertanya Tuhan kenapa ia terjadi. Pasti ada hikmah di sebalik semua ini. Saya pernah bercerita tentang Emak di SINI. Dia ratu hati. Dia tiada ganti.

Tiada kata. Hanya mampu berdoa. Agar Emak diberikan kekuatan luar biasa, menahan sakit yang sedia ada dengan sabar dan percaya bahawa Tuhan tidak akan menguji lebih dari kemampuan yang ada.



Ya Allah..

Di bulan Ramadan penuh kemuliaan ini, 
pintu syurga dibuka seluasnya, 
pintu neraka ditutup serapatnya, 
Demi rahmatMu 
yang menurunkan al-Quran,
yang mengutus junjungan Nabi terakhir,
yang mencipta setiap kejadian
Dengan lemah daku memohon dan merayu..
agar Kau wahai Penyembuh,
sembuhkan Emak dari segala penyakit yang menimpanya
permudahkanlah dia menyembahMu seperti waktu sihatnya
panjangkan dan berkati umurnya
ampunkan dosanya dan terima semua amalannya
janjikan syurga Firdaus buatnya
jauhkan api neraka dari menjilat tubuhnya


Wahai Rabbul'alamin...

Kau Maha Tahu
kurniakan kami sekeluarga ketabahan
agar mensyukuri setiap nikmat
agar mendidik hati dengan sabar dan redha
agar membina keikhlasan dan kekuatan
permudahkanlah urusan kami sekeluarga
jauhkanlah kami sekeluarga daripada bala dan malapetaka
dekatkanlah kami kepada rahmat dan nikmatMu ya Rahman...

Ayah, tabahlah...
Ayah, ku pasti zikir dan doa itu senjata kuatmu..
Abang dan kakak-kakak yang banyak membantu, semoga Allah berkati kehidupan kalian

Allah..
Allah..
Allah..

**Catatan penyakit Emak tulisan kakak boleh dibaca di SINI dan SINI

**Foto-foto dipetik oleh jurugambar walimah saya bertarikh 26 Mei. Emak adalah tulang belakang utama majlis tersebut dan wajah cerianya adalah sumber bahagia..

Takziah!

17.12.2011

Salam Takziah kepada keluarga abang sulung yang ditimpa musibah. Doa dari jauh dititip buat semua ahli keluarga yang terlibat dalam kemalangan tersebut. Semoga satu-satunya abang yang saya ada itu tabah dan kuat menjalani detik-detik yang mendatang.

Bukankah Tuhan mengulang dua kali ayat yang berbunyi "Setiap selepas kesusahan ada kesenangan, dan setiap kesusahan ada kesenangannya" di dalam Surah al-Insyirah.. 

Abang Zul sekeluarga di London pada tahun 2004. Kakyun bertudung putih.
Foto diambil dari BLOG kakyun.

Cuma yang dirisaukan adalah kondisi anak saudara sulung yang bernama Khairunnisa. Keadaan agak kritikal di Hospital Sultan Ismail, Johor Bahru. Masih teringat sewaktu kelahiran cucu pertama emak dan ayah ini, ia sangat memberi cahaya kegembiraan buat kami sekeluarga. Pandai mengambil hati orang lain, bijak, cantik, cukup pakej. Tingginya saja sudah mengalahkan makciknya ini. Moga Allah memberi kekuatan mental dan fizikal kepada kak yun. Semoga Kak yun terus tabah dan sabar. Sedih benar melihat teman-teman di FBnya yang tidak putus-putus memberi kata semangat, yang menunjukkan juga kak yun mempunyai hubungan baik dengan rakan-rakan sekolahnya..

Get well soon dear! Love you a lots~

Salam Takziah juga buat seorang teman lama. Pernah bersekolah sama, dan melanjutkan di universiti yang sama. Kini beliau sedang menyambung Sarjana di UPM. Takziah di atas pemergian ayah beliau juga ayah mertua beliau pada bulan yang sama. Ayah mertua beliau menghembuskan nafas terakhir seminggu sebelum majlis pernikahannya, manakala ayah beliau pula berjumpa Ilahi beberapa minggu setelah dia bergelar isteri. Turut merasa kesedihannya kerana pernah berjumpa dengan Arwah ayahnya. Sangat baik. Nasihatnya sering menyusuk jiwa kerana kata-katanya jujur dari hati. Semoga Allah memberi kekuatan kepada beliau untuk tabah meneruskan kehidupan. Ada hikmah yang sangat besar apabila Allah mengurniakan suami kepadanya setelah pemergian kedua Ayahnya yang tersayang, akan tetapi kasih Ayah tetap tidak berbelah bagi....

Love you ANis~

**Bersediakah kita dengan kehilangan orang tersayang??

Ramadan Kareem


Ayuh sama-sama menjadi Rabbaniyyun, mereka yang menghambakan diri kepada Tuhan, bukan sekadar Ramadaniyyun, yang menghambakan diri dan beramal semata-mata kerana bulan Ramadan yang mulia.

Ramadan Kareem, Allahu Akram~!

Andai ini Ramadan terakhir??

Alfu Mabruk

 Alfu Mabruk

Tahniah

Khas kepada anak didik di Kolej Islam Antarabangsa. Semoga Kejayaan yang diperolehi kini membantu kejayaan kalian di Akhirat kelak. Berharap agar istilah 'belajar' tidak pernah tamat walau kalian sudah melangkah jauh dari kolej ini.

Sebagai renungan, apa erti segulung sijil, diploma dan ijazah yang anda peroleh? 
 Fikirkanlah...


**Terkenang detik-detik menerima Ijazah pertama suatu ketika dahulu. Moga aku terus belajar dna belajar...

Ayah

Lelaki ini tidak pernah kenal erti putus asa
Lelaki ini tidak pernah jemu membahagiakan orang lain
Lelaki ini tidak pernah lelah mencari rezeki dan nafkah
Lelaki ini tidak penah lokek berkongsi ilmu dan pengalaman
Lelaki ini tidak pernah lupa untuk sentiasa mendoakan orang-orang di sekelilingnya
Lelaki ini tidak pernah mengungkap sayang dengan kata-kata tapi melalui perbuatannya

Lelaki ini sering tersenyum dan membuat orang lain tersenyum
Malah air matanya akan mengundang air mata orang yang menyanginya
Oleh itu, anak ini tidak sanggup melihat walau setitik air matanya menitis kerana ia sangat menyakitkan
Biarlah air matanya itu tanda bahagia, bukan tanda derita


Andai ramai yang sedang sibuk menyambut Hari Bapa, satu hari tidak cukup untuk menceritakan setiap kasih dan sayang seorang lelaki yang kupanggil Ayah..
Andai ramai yang mendedikasikan lagu-lagu bapa kepada bapa mereka, lirik lagu tersebut tidak cukup untuk meceritakan setiap titisan peluh ayah yang membahagiakan keluargaku..

Usah jadikan hari tertentu untuk menghargai bapa atau ayah..
Usah jadikan sesuatu yang tertentu untuk meluahkan rasa sayang kepada ayah..
Kita tidak perlukan hari tersebut, tapi apa yang lebih penting ialah kewujudan ayah dan doa kita buat dia itu lebih bermakna buat bekalan bapa-bapa yang sudah bertemu Tuhan..
Dan tulisan ini juga tidak mampu mencatat setiap pengorbanan si dia yang ku panggil Ayah..

Doaku agar Ayah sentiasa dirahmati dengan umur yang berkat, rezeki yang rahmat dan kebahagian yang selamat dunia akhirat..
Doaku agar ku mampu menjalankan tanggungjawab sebagai anak setelah Ayah menjalankan tanggungjawabnya dengan baik sebagai seorang Ayah..
Doaku agar Ayah dilindungi Allah setiap masa dan syukurku kepada Allah kerana kurniakan Ayah sebagai Ayah yang terbaik di antara yang terbaik..

Semoga satu hari nanti ada insan yang bisa jadi Ayah kepada bakal generasiku sepertimu Ayah!

The Path to Jannah

In the Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Most Gracious

Now, I'm writing this entry at KLIA while waiting my brother before he depart to Cairo, Egypt. Alhamdulillah everything was settled earlier, and I arrived here in a safe journey alone.

As stated in my previous entry about my little brother [read HERE], he finished his study in Shoubra, Cairo for 3 years, and this time he will further his higher study in the same field (Qira'at) for 4 years InsyaAllah.. It is a long time and anything could happen at that time, and I hope that everything will be fine InsyaAllah.

The Prophet (pbuh) said: "..He who treads the path in search of knowledge, Allah will make with it the path which leads to Jannah easy for him.." [Sahih Muslim].

He said again in another hadith: "If anyone travels on a road in search of knowledge, Allah will cause him to travel on one of the roads of Paradise.." [Abu Dawud]

There are so many hadith mentioned that the path to seek knowledge is the way to get an easy path to Jannah.. May Allah make his journey to study the Qur'an as an easy way for him to enter the Jannah. May Allah accept all of our deeds..

Hopefully, all my brother's dreams will be achieved. Be smart, Be happy~!

Our last picture together at KLIA.
InsyaAllah we will meet again within 4 years. Will miss you soon dear..

Allahumma Yassir fissafar~~

A Blessed Birthday!

24th August.

New age. The increasing of this new age should be accompanied by the increasing of Iman, Knowledge and Deeds. Alhamdulillah ya Allah for giving me the opportunity to continue this life and let me breath peacefully in this world. Thank you Allah!

Thank you mom for having a great and difficult time to give a birth to a daughter like me, and patiently educated me since that date until now..

Thank you dad for delivering azan right away after I born, and really thankful to you for everything that you taught me the beauty and the difficulty of life..

Thank you to all my siblings for having a great time together since my childhood, and still understand and accept my real character at home..

Thank you generally to all friends, and especially close friends for accepting a friend like me, and stay keep in touch even though I am not a real good friend but try to be good to everyone..

Really appreciate all the wishes, the du'a, the hopes, and the thoughts from all of you during my special day, either directly or indirectly. I received over 100 wishes at my FB yesterday, and many telephone calls from family and friends. It was a great honour to remember my birthday. I just feel wanna to cry yesterday, but I bear it and just express the feeling of happiness to everyone.. May Allah bless all of them and shower them with a great love and blessing~!

Special thanks to a friend who accompany my at the night of my birthday, even though just through a medium of technology, but I really appreciate that.. May Allah always bless you and give happiness throughout your life..


The blessed birthday of this year really make me happy due to some reasons. Firstly, it was in the month of Ramadan, and I do hope that I can do better than last Ramadan, hopefully this is not my last Ramadan. Secondly, it was celebrated in a very simple celebration, and I love to be a simple person. Thirdly, I realize that my presence and existence among my friends is good enough, and I really hope that all of my friends now will still be my friends in the future. Once friend is friend forever..

Actually, I have a lots of dream for this birhday, but I will not mention it here. But I do hope that all my dreams can be achieved by my hard efforts and the rest will be decided by Allah..

**Happy Birthday to myself~! Be Happy~!

Barakallahulakuma

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim

The number of wedding invitations increasing day by day from the beginning of this month. I can say that the invitations are for every weekend. I'm happy for all of my friend's big day. A sincere du'a taught by the Prophet Muhammad for the new bride and groom is dedicated to all of you;

Barakallahu lakuma wa baraka 'alaikuma wa jama'a bainakuma filkhair..

This entry is written special for the congratulation wish for those who end the single life and start the new life. You are not only build "Rumah & Tangga", but remember that you are building the "Masjid". So, make sure the Masjid is the best building ever that you and your spouse build in this life until both of you meet again in the Heaven of God..

Of course I'm so happy for your happiness. But, if someone ask me about WHEN is my turn? I'm sure that there will be no accurate answer. Yes, InsyaAllah one day in the future (very general answer..hehe). So, please do not ask me the same question, but you can wait my invitation wedding card in the future..haha..

Without further due, i just wanna congratulate sincerely to all the list of my friends who became or will become a husband and a wife (the scariest term ever..!). Although I cannot attend some of their invitations, but hopefully my du'a for your happiness is granted by The Almighty.. amin~~

1 May: Zuhaili Jalil & Husband
22 May: Hayat Ibrahim & Husband
23 May: Hisham & Aminah

Teach~!!

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim

As i planned in the beginning of this week, I wanna to talk about one of the important person in our life other than our parents is a teacher, or some of us will call them Ustaz, Ustazah, Cikgu, Guru, Mu'allim, Sir, Madam, Miss, and so on. We celebrated the Teacher's Day in Malaysia on 16th May, last Sunday, but the celebration including the appreciation to the person called as a teacher or an educator cannot be only in one day, but should be appreciated in the whole day of our life..

Teacher. This is the simplest name of a person who teach something even though their profession or occupation is not a real teacher. Some teacher also just bring out the name of 'teacher' in their profession but they cannot bear the responsibility as a teacher. However, it is still the teacher who carries the highest position in term of education, because "A good teacher is like a candle, it consumes itself to light the way for others."

In my life, my first teacher is my mother. Although she didn't have any degree, any M.A or phD, but she is my first teacher from the beginning i opened my eyes. She taught me almost everything to know what life it is. How to walk, talk, eat, drink, sleep and so on.. Her teaching is uncountable and cannot be compared to any other teachers, and she will be my teacher until the end of my breath. In my life as well, the adorable and respected teacher is my own father. He was a teacher and still teach other people and his own children, and i learned a lots from him. Whoever asked me who is my favourite teacher, the answer would be my dad~! May Allah bless both of my mother and my father, the best teacher in this world.. Ameen..


While other teachers was unforgettable (even though i'm easily forget the name of a person), but their knowledge and teaching really benefit throughout in my life. Their names are too many to be mentioned here. Then, a sincere thanking wish to:

All teachers in Taski Al-Ummah 2, Kg Melayu, Johor Bahru
All teachers in Sekolah Rendah Islam Johor Bahru
All teachers in Sekolah Menengah Agama An-Nur, Benut, Pontian, Johor
All teachers in Sekolah Menengah Agama Kerajaan Johor, Kluang
All lecturers in Matriculation Centre IIUM, Petaling Jaya
All lecturers in Internationa Islam University Malaysia, Gombak
All teachers (colleagues) in SKTP, Johor Bahru

Last but not least..
All people who teach and give me knowledge directly or indirectly even a WORD..

The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: "Ballighu 'Anni walau Ayah.." (بلغوا عني ولو آية) This hadith is Sahih, narrated by Bukhari from Ibn 'Amr (Hadith no. 2838)

Deliver from me even a sentence.. What to be delivered? Of course it is a knowledge, an advice, an information, a good word, and whatever which is not against the teaching of Islam.. This is one of the best and simple advices was given by our beloved Prophet. It is also can be understood that we have to share whatever we have in term of knowledge. Yes sharing is caring, but sharing the knowledge will be rewarded even after our death.. This hadith really motivates myself..

That is the role of teacher in delivering the goodness in term of words and deeds. However, there should be a reminder for those who called themselves a teacher. As i quoted from one website, Abul-Aswed ad-Dueli composed a couple of verses in which he said:

O, man that teaches others!
You should have taught yourself first

Warn not against a manner while you are doing

This is the great shame on you
Begin with yourself in interdicting sins

If you do it then you are truly wise

Only then, your admonition will be acceded

And your words will be ensued and teaching be useful.

Self-disrespect and immorality of some teachers have been the cause that resulted in the present youth’s irregularity and deviation from the social traditions.


I myself had my own experience as a teacher. Honestly, it is not a simple and easy job. It needs courage and sincerity to teach others. Teaching others can be easy if you ikhlas without hoping that the students will appreciate and respect you or even forget you after this. Although I'm not holding any position as a teacher in a school or whatever, I wanna teach others and share the knowledge I had even it's too little compared to other educated people. Agreed with Confucius, he said: "If you think in terms of a year, plan a seed; if in terms of ten years, plant trees; if in terms of 100 years, teach the people." It is also true when Albert Einstein said: "Teaching should be such that what is offered is perceived as valuable gift and not as a hard duty."

Do you wanna know something.. Not only people can teach all of us. It can be experiences of other, or a movie or a song, even a book or a writing can teach us a lot of things. Listen to this quote really make me smile, Charles W. Eliot said: "Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers." It is sooooo true...^____^

I dont wanna write any more, just wanna focus on writing the Chapter Two.. If not, my new teacher (mza) will punish me soon... (just kidding). Wallahu'alam...
