Shut out  

Thursday, June 09, 2011

I'm sorry. I'm just very tired and because of that, I tend to shut some things out that are not to my liking. I'd rather keep quiet than burst out in unnecessary anger... It's a bit irresponsible, but let's just say that's the best I can do now...

Different frequency?  

For some reason when I can understand, people can't... And when people understand, I can't! What in the world is wrong with my level of understanding?? Lol, different frequency? Mine's probably that of Mars or Venus or whattt...

Anyway, I'm sad today... I'd been frequently late these past few weeks, and I don't want to be... :((( Yet I can't seem to be on time at all.

Gonna bash through the jungles again tmr and wed.

Still so many things to do, yet so little time!

Seeing so many of my friends at Aku & Dia 3 make me wish I was there too. It seemed like a powerful spiritual booster! When I was there for A&D2, I seemed not to know anyone and now that so many whom I know are there, I couldn't be there...

InsyaAllah ada hikmahnya...

Ketika Akhawat Jatuh Cinta  

Astaghfirullah al-azim, semoga Allah mengampuni dosa-dosa kami dan menyucikan jiwa kami. MasyaAllah indah peringatan dalam artikel ini:

Yang mereka rasakan adalah penyesalan yang amat sangat, atas sebuah hijab yang tersingkap...
Ketika lelaki yang tak halal baginya, bergelayut dalam alam fikirannya, yang mereka rasakan adalah ketakutan yang begitu besar akan cinta yang tak suci lagi...


Ketika rasa rindu mulai merekah di hatinya, yang mereka rasakan adalah kesedihan yang tak terperih akan sbuah asa yang tak semestinya…

Tak ada senyum bahagia, tak ada rona malu…
Yang ada adalah malam-malam yang dipenuhi air mata penyesalan atas cinta-Nya yang ternodai…

Yang ada adalah kegelisahan, karena rasa yang salah arah…
Yang ada adalah penderitaan akan hati yang mulai sakit…


Ketika Akhwat Jatuh Cinta…

Bukan harapan untuk bertemu yang mereka nantikan, tapi yang ada adalah rasa ingin menghindar dan menjauh dari orang tersebut…


Tak ada kata-kata cinta dan rayuan…


Yang ada adalah kekhawatiran yang amat sangat, akan hati yang mulai merindukan lelaki yang belum halal atau bahkan tak akan pernah halal baginya…


Ketika mereka jatuh cinta, maka perhatikanlah, kegelisahan di hatinya yang tak mampu lagi memberikan ketenangan di wajahnya yang dulu teduh…


Mereka akan terus berusaha mematikan rasa itu bagaimanapun caranya…
Bahkan kendati dia harus menghilang, maka itu pun akan mereka lakukan...


Alangka kasihannya jika akhwat jatuh cinta…
Karena yang ada adalah penderitaan…


Tapi ukhti…
Bersabarlah…
Jadikan ini ujian dari Rabbmu…



Matikan rasa itu secepatnya…
Pasang tembok pembatas antara kau dan dia…
Pasang duri dalam hatimu, agar rasa itu tak tumbuh bersemai…
Cuci dengan air mata penyesalan akan hijab yang sempat tersingkap...


Putar balik kemudi hatimu, agar rasa itu tetap terarah hanya padaNya…
Pupuskan rasa rindu padanya dan kembalikan dalam hatimu rasa rindu akan cinta Rabbmu…


Ukhti… Jangan khawatir kau akan kehilangan cintanya…



Karena bila memang kalian ditakdirkan bersama, maka tak akan ada yang dapat mencegah kalian bersatu…


Tapi ketahuilah, bagaimana pun usaha kalian untuk bersatu, jika Allah tak menghendakinya, maka tak akan pernah kalian bersatu…


Ukhti… Bersabarlah… Biarkan Allah yang mengaturnya...
Maka yakinlah... Semuanya akan baik-baik saja…

Semua Akan Indah Pada Waktunya…

Headlines  

Allah Allah.

Hmm, there seems to be alot of things going on and alot of things to do! Such that I'm scared just to make a to-do list, scared that it'd be too overwhelming for me to take, opps!

Amanah. Responsibility.

A challenge to carry out. Sometimes you simply have too many on your plate already that it is time to say NO. I have been saying NOs and I still have many on my plate. How did I survive before?? Haha, good question.

Time management.

Well, maybe I managed my time better before. Maybe also I simply ignored my health before and keep pushing on. And... well, let's not deny it, I'm getting older *gasp* and energy is just not the same anymore. I try to keep my days filled with only 1 thing at a time. Quite hard to prioritise some over others but I simply don't have the energy to run around to 3 or more places in a day.

License.

Well, now that I have a license, it should be easier to move around and cover more distance right? Wrong. I just passed and it'd take months before that license can truly come to good use. (InsyaAllah it WILL) Passing was just the beginning :)

Things I NEED and things I WANT.

I don't mean 'things' in the literal sense. But rather goals and dreams. Things in the literal sense, alhamdulilah I'd been able to control hehe, like I still want an iTouch and yet I still have yet to find enough reason to own one hehe. In this such hi-tech era, before long i WOULD find a strong enough reason.

Goals & dreams.

Anyway, I was referring to goals and dreams. I've been wanting to be involved in a research project before I decide whether to do FYP at NIE or not, and finally I'm in one now! And gosh, I totally didn't foresee having to bash through jungles and hugging trees and digging soil along with the prospect of having to come face to face with a snake, yikes. So far no sightings yet, but sheesh we were amongst the mess at Bukit Batok Park when this auntie shouted out to us saying, "Be careful! After a rain there's normally many cobras!" and with that I lunged to grab my friend's bag infront of me hahah! It was pretty funny actually, I saw her pen dropped, and I motioned to bend down ti pick it up but thinking of seeing any snakes I immediately straightened up back lol.

I want my As next sem. I really do. And I mean no Cs and Ds alongside it to offset the gpa -_- Frustrating okeh to see your gpa getting offset when it should be UP UP UP! Need to work harder...

At this age, I still have many goals and dreams unfulfilled. Really salute those who're on their way of achieving each and every one of them!

WORK WORK WORK.

Alrighty then, gotta get back to (unpaid) 'work'. Gotta get some things done before lunch and zohor and off I go to Vigilante Drive next! So much for wanting to drop by ghufran today, ooooopppps!

What's next?  

Tuesday, May 31, 2011

For some reason, I find it really hard to sleep today. Alot of things on my mind and how I wish to continue working non-stop till all are done, yet I know I MUST sleep and rest my mind and body.

Alhamdulillah, results are out and I guess they're satisfactory. I hope I can raise my GPA next sem to at least a Second Lower Class honours, all the better if I can get Second Upper Class but let's take it one sem at a time ok?

And I'm loving my madrasah results! Can't wait to grad and have the final transcript in my hands at the end of this year! Then, I'd have my weekends to fill with other things I've been wanting to do.

I have to pull my hat off to people who have goals and work hard towards accomplishing them. My goals waver and sometimes disappear. Yet, there are some goals that have been on my list and are still yet to be accomplished. Alhamdullillah, there're also a few that I've successfully accomplished.

Finally, after years I passed my driving test on my first try on 12 April with only 4 points. Right now, I want to be able to drive, and park, and fill in with petrol on my own. Let's not rush things and give me some time aye? Earliest probably before I start Year 3 in August and latest maybe by the end of this year? I think my dad meant well, but by asking me to get on the expressway as soon as I pass was daunting and kinda scared the wits out of me. Lemme stay within the neighbourhood first aye? Haha

I will be having 7 modules next sem. As much as I want to take Mandarin at NTU, I would have to travel all the way to HSS school which is like all the way across NTU compund from NIE... And the process to take a NTU elective is already so troublesome that it turns me off. On the other hand, I have no interest in any NIE elective modules... :( Hmm, I don't even know if I should take an elective this coming sem or the next...

I'm still exploring my options on what should I do when I graduate from DPIA. I've already requested to teach @live at Ghufran (and even if I can't get one at Ghufran, I can always request to teach at Istiqamah, just that it is abit far and travelling takes up time and costs $$$). But I still wanna learn as well. I'm considering either a part-time Arabic or Al-Qur'an course at Zuhri or take Arabic at Al-Markaz like Harizah and a couple of other friends who've been recommending the institute. Syafiqah also suggested taking A Levels in Islamic Knowledge. Hmmmmmmmmm....

I'm feeling motivated and spoilt for choice right now, all the more making me more awake.

I need to sleep! Alright, I shall go close my eyes and wait till sleep invites...

B-b-bloggg  

Monday, May 09, 2011

It's more than two weeks of holidays after exams and I've filled my time with exciting activities :) Really refreshing indeed...

I miss blogging, but each time I want to blog, there's always something better I ought to be doing, even now haha. I've got some programme materials to prepare by tmr morning. And some reading to do as well.

Hmm what should I start with...

On the way home from kembangan this evening, I encountered an Indian boy of about 5 years old who boarded the double-decker bus I was in. He was with his father. Initially the father sat somewhere towards the back of the bus at the long seats facing each other and pulled the son to sit with him. The boy refused and started to cry. It's the ngada-ngada merengek kinda cry. I can't understand a single word he was saying until his dad repeats whatever the son said to him. It turns out that the boy wanted to sit right at the back of the bus, and when he didn't get his way, he cried. Not long after, the father gave in and brought him to sit at the back of the bus followed by a gentle, "Happy?" Unfortunately, this boy is really hard to please. he was still crying, complaining why is the bus so fast and why must they alight only 3 stops later. For goodness sake, I was silently eating my heart out hoping the bus would please go faster so I can get to my destination faster and wondering if I should have taken an alternative route, and here this boy is saying the bus is going too fast??!! The father was consoling him that they'll meet the mother faster and the mother has bought something special for him. There's this one time the boy complains to the father, "Why is the bus going so fast??" and to my surprise, the father answered, "Because we're sitting at the back of the bus, that's why it seems like the bus is going fast." I was torn on whether I should laugh or smack my head. What kind of logic is that?? Is this what parents are teaching their kids when they're young?? I pity my fellow teachers who'll have some hard time debunking myths like this.

I really can't stand kids who're very pampered, wants everything their way, cry or scream the moment they don't get what they want, too dependent, who scream and shout and run around everywhere. In short terms: misbehaved. I can accept kids for being kids, that's only natural but misbehaviour really sits on my nerves, that's why I can't teach primary school. At least I believe so. I enjoyed it when I had to relief Tweens 4 and Tweens 3, maybe I just had the privilege of getting the better-behaved students. Of course there are a few very mischievous ones and they really test my patience, especially this one class who was generally made up of rebellious kids, truly cekik darah....

Anyway, enough of that. Since I started NIE and found out that my lecturers are researchers, I have always wanted to be involved in a project and after approaching a few teachers. My dream finally came true! I was from a meeting just now with my lecturer and 4 other students. I just feel so happy and can't wait to feel at home in a lab again. Eventhough I'm still abit clueless about the project. I hope I'll get the hang of it along the way. My lecturer is kind enough to let me be part of the project, and he even obliged to what I like to do and will let me do carry out the experiments that are to my liking hehe. He passed me one of the dissertations of a past masters student to read the protocol. Holding it my hands, I wish one day i would carry a similar document, but bearing my name on it instead. InsyaAllah. If I get to masters, I would like to apply to teach at poly level :) and hopefully i would get to handle some of my own projects then! :)))

Dreams will be dreams if you don't work to make it happen. I'm in a rather hardworking mode now. Seeking spiritual boosters :) I just bought a couple od religious books at JB yesterday and can't wait to pore into them :)

Trials for a Muslim  

Monday, January 24, 2011

Came across this and I like :)

Allah's Apostle said, "If Allah wants to do good to somebody, He afflicts him with trials." [Narrated by Abu Hurairah, Sahih Bukhari]

What if Allah has been blessing a person with so many good, alhamdulillah for that ...but should one fear and ask why he/she is not inflicted with trials?

There was an alim' who fell on his knees and ask Allah, "Why I've not been afflicted to any trials for a period of time", "Ya Allah, im begging you to put me on trial".. Masya Allah.

We have to know that every single breathing day, we're ...put on a daily test which tests us on 2 things :
Sabr (patience) and Syukr (gratefulness)

May Allah swt bestow us all strength to face His trials. And may we smile, when we're facing it. Insya Allah.

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim

Allah uji, tandanya Allah sayang.

Ini adalah antara ungkapan terfamous yang biasa kita dengar dari mulut ke mulut orang yang memberi nasihat kepada mereka yang mendapat musibah.

Saya pernah terfikir, kalau Allah tak uji, maknanya Allah tak sayang ke?

Sejak akhir-akhir ni, apa sahaja yang saya nak, Allah bagi. Apa sahaja yang saya minta dalam doa, Allah makbulkan. Alhamdulillah sangat-sangat.

Sampaikan pada satu tahap, saya rasa, kenapa Allah tak uji saya seperti mana Dia menguji rakan-rakan yang lain?

Saya terus menerus mencari dan mencari, bilakah masanya Allah menguji saya?

Uji dengan kesenangan?

Ya, saya faham.

Tapi, saya pernah terdengar, orang mempersoalkan, kenapakah orang kafir yang selalu berbuat dosa dengan Allah, sering dapat apa yang mereka inginkan tapi kita, orang-orang Islam yang patuh dan taat kepada Allah, sering mendapat ujian dariNya?

Ada yang menjawab kerana Allah nak mereka terus menerus hanyut dalam kefasikan dan kekafiran mereka. Sebab itulah Allah sering memberi kesenangan kepada mereka.

Bagi yang Allah sayang, Allah akan uji mereka agar mereka sentiasa beringat dan berdoa kepadaNya.

Bagaimana dengan saya yang Allah sentiasa senangkan urusan saya? Adakah seperti mereka, orang-orang yang fasik dan kafir itu?

Diri ini terus menerus mencari jawapan dan malam ini, akhirnya saya ketemu juga. Ujian yang Allah nak turunkan kepada saya.

Rupa-rupanya Allah hold dulu ujian ni dan Allah turunkan ujian ni dalam bentuk dan cara yang agak berbeza.

Pada mulanya, agak sukar untuk saya terima. Saya memberontak. Saya menangis.

Tapi Syifa, nanti dulu!

Bukankah bila Allah uji, tandanya Allah sayang?

Bukankah selama ini, Allah beri sahaja apa yang saya minta?

Teringat dialog Nabi Ayyub dengan isterinya:

"Sudah berapa lamakah Allah berikan kesenangan kepada kita?"

"80 tahun."

"Dan sudah berapa lamakah Allah uji kita dengan derita?"

"7 tahun."

Selama 2 tahun sebelum, saya tiada masalah ini. Allah uji kawan-kawan yang lain tapi tidak saya.

Sekarang, tiba pula giliran saya untuk Allah uji kekuatan iman sendiri.

Sesungguhnya Allah akan uji kita dengan sesuatu yang bisa untuk kita handle, insyaAllah.

Bila saya fikir-fikir kembali, kalau saya pilih untuk ini, ada benda yang perlu dikorbankan tapi dari sudut yang lain, ada juga benda yang boleh saya settlekan.

InsyaAllah, jika ini yang terbaik untuk saya, saya redho. Jika ini adalah salah satu cara untuk saya raih redhoNya, saya rela.

Dan kerana Tuhanmu, bersabarlah...

'Ikhlaskan diri hanya untuk Illahi, bersungguh-sungguh demi Islam ini.'

Ya Allah, help me  

Tuesday, January 18, 2011

I'd been holding it in. I didn't wanna shed a tear. But...

Keep telling myself that this is a test, la tahzan, that there's a reason Allah has ordained things to turn out this way. Probably Allah is testing me if I am amongst the grateful. Probably Allah knows I can take it and this test will just make me stronger.

Yet it is still demoralising. It's like I wanna talk to somebody but I dunno how to handle it. Mahmudah called me right after I broke the news. I was still ok then, still trying to hold things together. And I was smsing Pie also about it. But in a sense I'm not looking for comfort. I just want to get it over with.

I guess the U in D.U.I.T. is not enough... I guess I need to work harder.

And right now I need twice the effort to keep myself strong and going on. Ya Allah, help me.

More on Pesantren Kilat 2010  

Friday, January 07, 2011

This was what I shared with some friends about pesantren, and I'd like to document it here...

Pesantren kilat was organised by MHDS (psst,it stands for Moral Human Development Society, check out http://www.facebook.com/reqs.php?bcode=Q1rU5&fcode=6739486a4&f=1164340433#!/pages/MHDS-Youths/116578921718982 and http://www.facebook.com/reqs.php?bcode=Q1rU5&fcode=6739486a4&f=1164340433#!/pages/Moral-Human-Development-Society/137609558611 ). This year is the second time running. Last year I was a participant, this year jadi faci pulak. Alhamdulillah for the opportunity...

Oh, yup the pesantren is one week long, from Sat 18th 2pm till Sat 25th 9pm. Like last year, it was held at Masjid Pertempatan Melayu Sembawang, a great secluded place in Singapore that cuts you off from reality throughout the camp to truly mengabdikan diri kepada Allah swt dan menanam cinta pada Allah swt dan Rasulullah saw melalui ibadah-ibadah harian. Pesantren Kilat ni juga mengajar kita untuk mnghormati dan menghargai guru kita, ibubapa kita dan kawan-kawan kita...

The pesantren memang tak banyak games like we have at Fityan camps. Rather the daily schedule works around the ibadah-ibadah wajib dan sunnah. So, daily, it goes something like this:
0400-0430: Wake-up call and wash-up (siapa yang dah ready kumpul di msjid berselawat beramai-ramai sambil menunggu imam)
0430-0530: Solat Sunat Tahajjud 2 rakaat, Taubat 2 rakaat and Witr 3 rakaat semua berjemaah diselang-seli dengan zikir munajat mengikut buku ‘Excellence and Secrets of the Night Vigil Volume 1 Syarah Ratib Alhadad Chapter 27 Imam Alwee bin Ahmad bin Hassan Alhadad’ dipimpin oleh Ustaz Hassan Saifoulridzal atau Bro Asyraf Hasni jikalau Ustaz tak sihat.
0530-0600: Solat Sunat Qabliyah Subuh, zikir and Solat Subuh berjemaah (lepas Subuh bersalaman sambil selawat)
0600-0630: Bacaan Wirdu Latif mengikut buku (sry tak ingat title, buku pada kawan saya)
0630-0700: Tazkirah pendek oleh Ustaz
0700-0800: Riadah ringan, stretchings, cheer atau bonding sessions (kalau hujan buat indoors)
0800-0830: Sarapan pagi
0830-1030: Free and easy (mandi, rehat atau faci time)
1030-1100: Solat Sunat Dhuha 8 rakaat (berjemaah for the first few days, kemudiannya dilakukan sendiri-sendiri)
1100-1200: Hafalan (in groups, semua orang kena hafal dari Surah At-Takatsur sampai Surah An-Nas dan doa-doa harian, kemudian tasmi’ dengan faci. Bagi yang tak kenal huruf, ada group tersendiri untuk belajar kenal huruf)
1200-1300: Makan tengahari (time makan semua berdulang. makan disediakan dan dihidang oleh unit muslimin and muslimah MHDS tapi anak-anak pesantren cuci dulang dan cawan sendiri, dan kemas kawasan makan sendiri)
1300-1330: Solat Zohor berjemaah diiringi Solat Sunat Qabliyah & Ba’adiyah
1330-1445: Ta’alim Fiqh (belajar basic solat and wudhu’) oleh Ustaz Hassan mengikut buku (title buku dalam bahasa arab, buku diterjemahkan kepada bahasa Melayu oleh Ustazah Sha’abana from MHDS youth)
1445-1500: Rehat
1500-1615: Ta’alim Tauhid (belajar basic apa erti tauhid dan mengenal Allah serta sifat-sifat Allah) oleh Ustaz Hassan mengikut buku ‘Pelajaran Tauhid’ oleh Syed Abdillah Ahmad Aljufri
1615-1645: Solat Sunat Qabliyah Asar, zikir and Solat Asar berjemaah (lepas Asar bersalaman sambil selawat)
1645-1800: Riadah petang di luar masjid (basically time for games led by youths, jog to the beach and have activities at the beach, main Amazing Race, ada cheer competition etc)
1800-1830: Wash-up or rehat
1830-1900: Bacaan Wirdu Latif mengikut buku
1900-1930: Solat Maghrib dan Solat Sunat Ba’adiyah
1930-2015: Ta’alim Tasawwuf (belajar pesan-pesan daripada Imam Al-Ghazali) oleh Ustaz Hassan mengikut buku ‘Duhai Anakku’ (saya tak dapat buku dia)
2015-2045: Solat Isya’ berjemaah diiringi Solat Sunat Qabliyah & Ba’adiyah
2045-2130: Bacaan Ratib atau ada Qaseedah atau majlis Maulid atau mass usrah
2130-2200: Makan malam
2200-2245: Supper, Wash-up and lights-out at 2245

At all times there will be snacks and drinks prepared. Anytime perlu tunggu, masjid dipenuhkan dengan selawat dan zikir. Bila masa yang diizinkan, Ustaz Hassan akan memberikan nasihat-nasihatnya. And the groups are gender-based, 9-12 per group. Even masa ada mass activity, boys group tak mix dengan girls group. Nama group masing-masing adalah sahabat-sahabat, isteri-isteri atau anak-anak Nabi dan cheer pon based on ciri-ciri mereka jadi balik dorang kenal orang-orang ni.

Takde night walk, takde high elements, takde sesi muhasabah khas... Tapi each time kita selawat atau zikir atau berqaseedah, boleh berlinangan air mata bertaubat kepada Allah, memohon Allah menyatukan kita di syurga kelak, mendamba cinta Allah swt dan Rasulullah saw dan meminta agar mendapat syafaat oleh Rasulullah saw di akhirat kelak. This happens even for those participants yang pada mulanya memberontak apa ni boring je pesantren takde activity, tak boleh buat ni tak boleh buat tu, tapi pada penghujung pesantren taknak balik, rindukan selawat, rindukan Qaseedah, takut berpisah sahaja dengan Ustaz dan kawan-kawan di pesantren akan kembali ke diri yang dulu. Some of the participants are from broken homes, yang seriously parents hantar untuk berubah. Memang mencabar bagi Ustaz, bagi exco dan facis but Alhamdulillah Allah membuka hati mereka dan memberi mereka hidayah. I have one participant yang kat luar memang wild, merokok, minum arak padahal baru 14 tahun tapi hujung pesantren sambil peluk cakap taknak balik.

Ade sunnah-sunnah lain yang diajarkan seperti bersiwak, menjawab azan, berselawat atas Nabi bila mendengar namanya disebut, memakai jubah putih dan songkok/sarban (bagi lelaki) setiap masa solat dan ta’alim.

On Thursday afternoon takde ta’alim, instead ada majlis ijazah sarban sebagai tanda dah graduate dari pesantren. Ustaz pakaikan sarban pada setiap anak lelaki pesantren. Kemudian Ustaz ada majlis ijazah sanad untuk semua orang, semua form chain dan Ustaz read out sanad Ustaz belajar agama, dan dengan ijazah sanad ini, bila kita ucapkan ‘saya terima’, itu tanda kita terima untuk melaksanakan perintah-perintah Allah dan mengamalkan sunnah-sunnah Rasulullah saw.
So on Friday and Saturday, basically free and easy, takde ta’alim, except exco make use of the time for participants to rehearse persembahan lagu Aeman Ibu dan Ayah and lagu Inteam Guruku for last day.

On Saturday, tengahari start prize presentation, lepas tu ada persembahan lagu, kemudian mauled lepas Asar and lepas Maghrib ada ceramah ibu bapa oleh Ustaz TM Fouzy. Selesai sahaja, kita bersalaman, bergambar dan bersurai....

Yang dapat kita ambil pengajaran dari pesantren ni mungkin dari segi mengkhaskan masjid sebagai tempat beribadah dan mengadakan activity di luar masjid instead, and untuk mengisi waiting time dengan selawat dan zikir daripada cheering atau energizers dan sebagainya. Qiyam diberi keutamaan daripada night walk dan sebagainya, kerana qiyam lebih efektif bagi kita bermuhasabah diri, lebih-lebih lagi bila solat-solat sunat itu diselang-seli dengan zikir munajat (screen menunjukkan maknanya sekali supaya zikir itu dapat dihayati). Solat tepat pada waktunya juga diberi keutamaan untuk menanamkan discipline. Basically we teach that we work our schedules and activities around our solat timings rather than the other way around through our programmes. Cara Fityan of course lain daripada cara MHDS. But one thing I learn is, we shouldn’t do programmes to please our participants, sekalipun participants kita rasa terpaksa dan memberontak kerana terpaksa menghadiri camp kita, tapi kalau kita tunjukkan padanya kenapa dia perlu hadiri (give them a reason) insyaAllah they’ll benefit from the camp... Tapi tulah 7 days can do wonders, but 2-3 days hardly does anything. It took the participants yang degil-degil until Thursday baru nampak perubahan...

Itu sahaja saya dapat kongsi. Nak tengok gambar-gambar, video dan sebagainya bolehlah tengok kat facebook. This pesantren is the most meaningful camp I’ve facilitated, and bila lihat participants menangis bila menyebut nama Allah swt dan Rasulullah saw, boleh turut menangis jugak. Mungkin kalau ade peluang, next year nye pesantren kita ajak adik-adik kita dan rakan-rakan kita untuk turut sertai semoga menjadi insan yang berakhlak yang mengutamakan cinta kepada Allah swt dan Rasulullah swt dan menghargai ibubapa mereka.
