Pent up frustrations

I am not really a highly irritable person but some things just irk me, you know? Like, for example, you were just done doing your laundry after a tiring day walking around in the kampung and since the clothesline is open and you're living on the 1st floor, drops of water from clothes of the people living above you(since the clotheslines are built that way in hostels) may fall onto your clothes but it doesn't matter, so you use an umbrella to cover up your clothes. The next thing you know some highly annoying person dumps a BUCKET of water from above, drenching your just done laundry.

Second example, you've been living with this one person for such a long time and that person never takes an effort to do the chores and that person never cleans the toilet that she's assigned to. The next thing you know she was complaining to other people that the house is dirty. She even moved to the toilet that you used since you made an effort to clean that toilet. 

Tell me why does these people exist? 

I have tried my best to be kind to people but these kind of people just repels me you know? And is that my fault? But I did not torture them or be unfair towards them even if they're being harmful to others. I just ignore them. That's the best I can do in my level of akhlaq. 

I keep on apologizing to Rasulullah for this. If it was him in my place, he would've known exactly what to do and how to react.

Sigh.

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 ...

A letter for you

Date: 4th of September 2009 Assalamualaikum to my fellow sisters and brethrens, who will be one of the occupants in Jannah, insyaAllah. First of all, this is a letter that I composed to all viewers. A letter full of my real thoughts and dwellings, a letter of hope and pain, a letter of almost the truth. So here goes nothing. Bismillahirrahmanirrahim, Dear brothers and sisters, The thing that triggered me to write such a letter is a post, that I read on someone’s blog. It reminded me, well, of about everything . Every single thing that I worked for, every single thing that I fought for. Yes, my story had started long enough, ever since I was back in high school. 2007.... My friend was fasting. I felt excited because I tried fasting too and it’s in the fasting month, yes, I remembered it well. I followed my Muslim friends where I woke up early for sahur and break my fast at Maghrib. I was doing it because I thought it would be fun and why not, since I was dead eager to k...
