Wahai jiwa yang tenang!

بِسْــــــــــــــــــــــمِ اﷲِارَّحْمَنِ ارَّحِيم

Alhamdulillah hirabbil'alamin...

 ladang jagungnya Dekalb yg endless... 

"Alhamdulillah.We are very productive today and pretty much got the entire of next semester planned in an hour's time. This is barakah from Allah" said Umar, the president of NIU MSA. Petang yg penuh barakah indeed. As I cycled home at dusk today after the meeting, the weather could not have been better. Angin tiup sepoi2 bahasa after scorching heat wave all week. hilang rasa letih. and Dekalb, subhanallah..never fails to give the best sunset view. Thank you Allah.


To think that just yesterday was a hectic day with classes, cooking, ulang alik naik turun tangga apartment tingkat 6, skyping dgn mama dan tetamu dirumah chicago (hehe this part was fun) sampai hangus cok kodok, entertaining ayah dan ustaz yg datang melawat dari Iowa, helping a friend to move out of her townhouse till late night, losing my precious ear ring that wan gave (the ONE time that i decided to wear them after 4 years of safe keeping, just because i miss wan. In less than an hour, it's gone) - all of that mayhem seems to disappear. 


To think that exactly a week ago, the state of mind i was in when the world seemed so uncertain, so full of question marks, so ready to back off, yet today I feel grounded. Alhamdulillah...


Allah hapuskan sesuatu perasaan itu, tidak berbekas langsung. Apabila diuji, kita seolah-olah kita tak pernah kenal bahagia dan apabila diberi nikmah, kita seolah-olah tak pernah kenal sedih. 


teringat kat ayat ni...  

"Wahai jiwa yang tenang!"

"Kembalilah kepada Tuhanmu dengan keadaan engkau berpuas hati (dengan segala nikmat yang diberikan) lagi diredhai (di sisi Tuhanmu) ! -"

"Serta masuklah engkau dalam kumpulan hamba-hambaku yang berbahagia -"

"Dan masuklah ke dalam SyurgaKu! "

Al-Fajr 89:27-30
