Is This Love I’m Feeling?

“Love is a serious mental disease.” At least that’s how Plato put it. And while anyone who’s ever been ‘in love’ might see some truth to this statement, there is a critical mistake made here. Love is not a mental disease. Desire is.

Ramadhan kareem!

I was taught by my Arabic teacher during my 1st year, that the traditions of Arabs when they see each other during and before the month of Ramadhan is to greet:
'Ramadhan kareem!' and it is replied with 'Allahu akram!'.

Just a little something to share. Click to listen ^_^

Memories that hurt

It was a dark and a lonely night. It was way past her usual bedtime. But her eyes are still lively, maybe due to the gourmet coffee concoction she had earlier that night.

It was the memories that kept her awake. Memories that swirls around her like a gloomy mist. She choked, fighting back tears. Slowly the chapters unfolded, visioning each scene like pictures of a story book, page after page.

She’s hurt herself. Again and again. It was neither that she was naïve nor ignorant. Her eyes welled up of tears. It dripped down slowly, one by one. She started sobbing hard. Reached out for a tissue, two, and three..

She took a deep breath, held it, and let it out slowly. It was then that she was reminded of this:

''O ye who believe! Celebrate the praises of Allah, and do this often; And glorify Him morning and evening. He it is Who sends blessings on you, as do His angels, that He may bring you out from the depths of Darkness into Light: and He is Full of Mercy to the Believers.''(al-Quran 33:41-43)

She smiled.

Nak makan susah..nak minum pun susah..

He was struggling to hold a spoon with his right hand. The spoon has a large handle, easing him to grip while trying to scoop up pieces of uncooked macaroni. He scooped, lifted up the spoon and poured back the macaronis into its bowl.

I watched with interest.

The boy is around 14 years of age, has small yet a

sturdy looking body and a nice smile. He speaks slowly yet clearly, mixing Malay and English in the process. With his 'old-school' spectacles, he looked a little smart and cheeky at first glance.

He then tries to lift up an empty plastic cup to his mouth, imitating drinking. Done. Now he tries with another smaller plastic cup. He struggles a little. But managed.

'Cawan yang kecik ni susah sikit la kak..' He said, but repeats the exercise.

(This photo has nothing to do with the story :p)

Just a few months ago, this boy was running around the futsal court, happily and energetically kicking and chasing the ball with his friends. Little did he know that today, a simple task of eating and brushing his own teeth would be considered a major obstacle.

'Kak, Dr tadi suruh jalan jauh sangat..Rekod Dunia ni kak..huu' He said.

What he meant by 'Jalan jauh sangat' is 3 rooms away...

-The boy is suffering from rheumatoid athritis

Ibrah:

-Kadangkala manusia seringkali terlupa mensyukuri nikmat-nikmat kecil kurniaan dan pinjaman yang Esa.

-Jangan putus asa untuk berusaha, rajinkan diri untuk isi roh kita supaya sentiasa bersemangat untuk 'bergerak'. Kemalasan kita adalah penyebab Islam ditindas...

As death draw near

We might not have the chance to choose our birth, but
we still have the opportunity to choose our death.
It's in your hand, to leave this world with triumph or failure.
Out there, there's still too much of misery but lack of empathy.
Loads of enmity but little of kindness and love.
To my fellow mankind, reveal what have been concealed.
May you find the truth.

- Syahadatulhaq

Feel like complaining?

'When sometimes in life, you fall down, do you think you have hope to get back up?'

'If I fail I'll try again..and again..and again..but I know its not the end. It matters how you're gonna finish. Are you going to finish strong? You WILL find that strength to get back up'

So, do you still feel like complaining after watching the video clip?

Allah has given us loads. Why are we still not following His rules and be thankful?

41. O you who believe! Remember Allah with much remembrance.

42. And glorify His Praises morning and afternoon [the early morning (Fajr) and 'Asr prayers].

(al-Ahzab 33:41-42)

Hati

''Carilah hatimu sewaktu membaca al-Quran.

Jika kau tidak temui, carilah hatimu ketika mengerjakan solat.

Jika kau tidak temui, carilah hatimu ketika duduk tafakur mengingati mati.

Jika kau tidak temui juga, berdoalah kepada Allah,

pinta hati yang baru...''

A very nice quote that may just benefit us all =)
