just updating

salam

i like the way ppl like the new face of Ms. Blawg, alhamdullilah :)

today:

• is the 15th day of Ramadhan. the 15th day muslims have been fasting - except the fact that being a girl myself, i dont satisfy the number. haha. kinda terseksa restraining myself from eating when i can actually eat, but the all-male office just wont gv me any chance to sneak somewhere and eat. so.,,tahan je la lapar sampai kat umah :(

• berbuke kat tenaganita, the food was sponsored by US Embassy, okay la jugak makanan die. byk lauk2. hehe. and we were referred as 'the three pretty ladies' more than 3 times. hahah.semoge terus jd doa je la ;p and the org puteh tu pun dok amik gamba, and i so happened to always stand nxt to the important ppl, so agaknye masuk gamba kot? haha sgt mengambil kesempatan like apahal kan.

so en. azman (my boss, that is) utilize this blessed month of ramadhan, by requiring us to gather evryday b4 zohor and there ll be like session macam usrah. hehe. good for me tho cuz ive been missing my usrah routines, uhh lets just say eversince i started my chambering, word usrah has just been ripped off of my dictionary -mercilessly. huhu, no need to wonder why okay. back to the tazkirah session at office, so. during the 'session', we alternately read aloud the chapters from 'peribadi muslim' , which i know, it has been the basic module for any usrah beginner, and i just realized that the famous book was translated by my Grandfather! hoho. bagus banget ey..apehal kan baru sedar.. yea, anybody can just slam my back now and say TAK GUNE NYE CUCU! .. yea wtv

so i ponder...
da'wah is an obligation for ALL muslims. obligation is thus defined by dictionary.com as something by which a person is bound or obliged to do certain things, and which arises out of a sense of duty or results from custom, law, etc. which in short it means something we cant NOT do. like we HAVE to, we are BOUND to do. got it. next,
wat's da'wah anyway?
according to this one book which we dont know whos the author, as the book only mentioned the translator's name which of kos i forgot ady, haha, da'wah is ta'muruuna bil ma'ruf wa tanhauna anil mungkar. or in our mother tounge, mengajak kpd kebaikan, dan mencegah dari kemungkaran. the definition just got me thinking like, laa tu pun dah dikire da'wah. tak smestinye kite cam pegi kpd org2 yg tak kenal dan menyebarkan ajaran islam (which of COURSE IS da;wah too)..

so i reflect..
lately all i hv been doing is mengajak kpd kemungkaran MORE than mengajak kpd kebaikan.
why eh? easy. the answer is because its easier. we dont wanna go against the crowds, its hard, and ppl will stir away. we dont wanna be alone do we?

but lets just see it this way. there, before and when we are measured, (of kos le namenye di alam akhirat) we ARE going to be alone.
every man for himself. remember?
so much for the cliche frens forever right? hehe

hehe okay, just something to ponder about. now u can all go on and about ur daily routines, and lets do some da'wah along the way okay. now it seems that its kinda senang je sket nak ajak2 kpd kebaikan, sometimes it need not be sumthin big. sometimes its just small2 things like 'ha,, jom ngaji jap pas teraweh tu. 2-3 muke jd le,,huhu' like old ppl say, sikit2 lame2 jd le bukit. kan. hm seriously, by saying this here, im actually saying it to myself. and thats the utmost important!

nite ppl , enjoy ur ramadhan . with byk2 ibadah of kos. (yea again, speaking to the mirror ;p)

Everyone shall taste death.
And only on the day of Resurrection shall u be paid ur wages in full.
and whoever is removed away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise,
He indeed is successful.
the life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception.
