A STORY...~
Translation By Ibn Riaz:
بسـم الله الرحمن الرحيم
By Shaykh Ṣāliḥ al-MaghāmasīI know of a man from Egypt who performed Ḥajj 32 years ago in his youth. He, at the time, was riding in a nine-passenger vehicle. In the front seats were a husband and wife. Behind them was a woman very old in age who, due to the congestion inside, was in an uncomfortable position, and her age and body’s condition didn’t help the situation any better. So, the man who I know tried to convince the man in the front to switch seats with the old woman so that she could be up front. He refused, but this man kept on pushing him to do it until he finally accepted. The husband ended up going to the back seat and the old woman was able to sit up front. When the old woman felt relaxed and was able to extend her legs she said to this man, in her local dialect, what means, “May Allāh not prevent you from Ḥajj every year.”
This man has performed Ḥajj until now—and I know him—for 32 years. 32 pilgrimages since she supplicated for him that year! Sometimes a new year comes and the time of Ḥajj approaches, but he doesn’t have the money or even the intention to perform it. Yet, without any notice, he’s led to perform Ḥajj by the blessing of that woman’s supplication.
`Alī (may Allāh be pleased with him) said, “Allāh has concealed two within two: He has concealed His pleasure in righteous acts, so one does not know which righteous act of his pleases Allāh; and He has concealed His awliyā’ amongst His servants, so one does not know which servant of Allāh is His walī.”
The point here: perform good deeds and desire for them to be sincerely for Allāh’s Sake. Perhaps you’ll do something for someone who is unknown amongst the people—which is better—and his supplications are answered. In turn, he supplicates for you and prosperity is decreed for you while you don’t know from where it came. However, Allāh bestowed His loving Mercy upon you and made an easy way for you to reach your goal. May Allāh allow for us to attain that which He loves through our good deeds.
May His peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muḥammad and his family, and all praises are due to Allāh, Lord of the Worlds.
REMINDER...
Fellow
Muslims may wrong us and we may get mad and upset. However sometimes
its better to forgive and forget and move-on, even if it means we have
to swallow our pride.
Abu Aiyub narrated "It is not lawful for
a Muslim to desert (not to speak to) his brother Muslim for more than
three days while meeting, one turns his face to one side and the other
turns his face to the other side. Lo! The better of the two is the one
who starts greeting the other" [Bukhari]
[a reminder to myself first and foremost]
NO EXCUSE....
We get busy in our lives, especially with our families, work/school, and other responsibilities. However, we should still strive to increase our Islamic knowledge in some manner. There are many techniques such as listening to lectures (on your phone or mp3 player) in our drive to work, walk to class,r bus to school, or while exercising at the gym. Attend a monthly halaca or take a weekend seminar every once in a while or a listen to a lecture set you downloaded online. Let's try not to stay stagnant in our Islam but rather always aim to improve it, in'sha'Allah! What are your thoughts on how we can increase our Islamic knowledge?
IN TROUBLE?
Whenever you face a trial or tribulation, recall that:
"No calamity befalls a Muslim but that Allah expiates some of his sins
because of it, even though it were the prick he receives from a thorn"
[narrated Aisha in Bukhari]
We commit sins, but statements like
these give us hope. May we arrive on the Day of Judgment with all of
ours sins forgiven. Ameen.

TAULADAN~
"Aku sendiri konfius dengan perasaan aku lagi. Aku tak nak lah perasaan ini menjadi permainan syaitan sehinggakan mengganggu kekhusyukkan solat dan ibadah aku. Aku nak ia suci supaya ada keberkatan dan keredhan Ilahi. Bagaimana harus untuk aku uruskan perasaan ini?"
Ber'syura'lah. Berbincang elok-elok dengan orang yang paling dekat dengan kita, yang dalam ilmu dan pengalamannya. Arif dan alim tentang kemahirannya. Selepas keputusan diputuskan bersama-sama, walau apapun pilihannya; ber-istikharahlah. Mohon Allah redhai setiap keputusan yang telah kita buat.
Apa yang penting?
Kesucian jiwa. "Benar-benar beruntunglah orang-orang yang suka mensucikan jiwanya. Dan benar-benar rugilah orang-orang yang gemar mengotorkan jiwanya." (Asy-Syams: 9-10)
Percayalah. Bahawa sesungguhnya mensucikan jiwa itu tugas paling utama bagi umat manusia yang dibawa oleh Rasullah SAW yang diutuskan oleh Allah.
Kesucian jiwa itulah tujuan utama bagi semua orang yang bertaqwa serta beriman kepada Allah. Bagi seseorang yang beroleh keselamatan dan kebahagiaan atau pun kesengsaraan. Dan kecelakaan di sisi Allah Taala itupun tergantung kepada kesucian atau kekotoran jiwa yang ada di dalam diri manusia itu sendiri.
Hanya Allah yang akan memberi penilaian namun kita wajib berusaha untuk mendapat penilaian yang baik dari Allah dengan izin dan kehendaknya. Namun, andai kata kita sudah berusaha bersungguh-sungguh tetapi kesudahannya kita tetap dikecewakan. Bertabahlah! Itulah namanya kehidupan. dikecewakan dan mengecewakan. Dilukai dan melukai
