No, I did not just sit in front of my laptop the whole day.

In the name of Allah,
Most Gracious, Most Merciful,
Praise be to Allah,
the Cherisher and Sustainer of the Worlds,
and Peace and Prayer be upon the Final Prophet and Messenger. Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Quran

I've been somewhat 'emo' these past few days. I was getting more and more agitated that I started to grab the thing that always consoled me whenever I feel sad;

the muqaddimah of the tafsir fi zilal by Syed Qutb.

Reading that always managed to bring out the tears in me, and I felt better.

Alhamdulillah.

"Dan tiadalah daripada seorang penulis melainkan akan kekal, 
Tulisannya walaupun telah musnah dua tangannya, 
Maka janganlah engkau menulis dengan khatmu selain kitab, 
Yang menggembirakan engkau pada hari kiamat untuk melihatnya."

- Mohammad Nidzam Abd. Khadir, TASAWUF KONTEMPORARI


Right after I posted my previous post, I grabbed a book from my shelf, started to read and 'bumped' into this. All the more reason I shouldn't stop writing.

Beautiful isn't it, Allah's work? He gives you answers in places you least expect.





"Sometimes we can't just say "Allah has a better plan for us." 
We have to believe He does."

    “ Tiga orang yang akan selalu diberi pertolongan oleh Allah adalah seorang mujahid yang selalu memperjuangkan agama Allah SWT , seorang penulis yang selalu memberi penawar , dan seorang yang menikah untuk menjaga kehormatannya.” (HR Thabrani)

A revert's thoughts on LGBTQ

First of all, what does LGBTQ stands for?  L = lesbian G = gay B = bisexual T = transgender Q = queer I am pretty sure everyone's familiar with the first 4 sexual orientation but what about the last one? Queers are people who are not sure of their own sexual identity.  So what does it mean to belong to the 5 sexual orientation? Let's just assume I am secretly a lesbian. So how would you react to that?  Do you judge me?  Or do you accept me as I am? I got married with a man and have 2 kids as a result of the marriage, there's nothing wrong with that isn't it? I am doing nothing wrong despite having an against the fitrah inclination towards the same sex.  It will only become wrong if they chose to act on their sexual orientation.  They claim that the sexual orientation is a result of nature and nothing can be done to change it. Like in a transgender's case, they think that "God made a mistake and switched their ge...

My dad's turn

because ALLAH is with me.... Earlier today i was shocked by a text message sent to me from one of my aunt from my dad's side. "Why didn't you tell me that you've become a Muslim? Sampai hati tak bagitau, bukan perkara tak baik pun." This raised a question mark in my head. Who told her? She's a Muslim by the way. Then onwards, after a few exchanging text messages, i finally come to a realization. I have to tell my dad before he found out from someone else. That would be worst. So, i started to type on my cellphone. "Daddy, i've become a Muslim. Ever since i'm at KTT. I am telling you via sms so that you will be clear of why i am doing this and so that you will not hear this from other people who might exaggerate the story. I didn't become a Muslim because i have a boyfriend. Not because i was influenced by my friends. And also not because i wanted to join PAS. But because i have taken interest in Islam ever since i'm at...

Mummy

Finally, after 1 and a half years(maybe more), the truth is out. I confessed to my mum about me being a Muslim. When I first told her, she was upset and angry. She asked me: Who influenced you into being one? Did u have a boyfriend? Who converted you? Did you know that it’s a big sin to convert when you are already baptized?! I was silent all the while she was bombarding me with her questions but Alhamdulillah, I feel calm and unmoved. I didn’t feel guilty at all. So I told her, Mummy, nobody forced me to become one. No, that is not the reason I become a Muslim. Do you notice that I’ve become more closer to you since past one and a half years?  And my mum said yes, you’ve become better but still… Then I said, it is because of Islam that I changed from my old ways. I used to yell at you but since I became a Muslim, I learned how to be better, to appreciate my parents better. And then she said something I expected she would say. No wonder you didn’t pass your ...
