Hidayah itu Milik Allah

Kita semua tahu dan pernah dengar kisah-kisah terdahulu,

Bagaimana bait-bait ayat Al Quran – Surah Taha ayat 1 hingga 5 mampu melembutkan hati Saidina Umar Al Khattab yang dahulunya paling kuat menentang Islam,

Dan bagaimana keangkuhan dan keegoaan yang tinggi oleh Syaitan yang dahulunya ketua para malaikat dicampak keluar daripada Syurga dan dimurkai Allah SWT

Ternyata, hidayah itu hanya Allah SWT sahaja yang berkuasa memberi dan juga menariknya semula

Sudah sekian lama, hati ini terpukul untuk berkongsikan suatu kisah daripada sejarah zaman pemerintahan Khulafa’ Ar-Rasyidin, pemerintahan pertama oleh Saidina Abu Bakar as-Siddiq selepas kewafatan baginda, Rasulullah SAW. Perkongsian tentang Sajjah binti Al-Harith.

Siapakah Sajjah binti al-Harith ini? Dia merupakan individu pertama dalam kalangan wanita yang mengaku dirinya seorang Nabi dan meskipun dia seorang wanita, Sajjah ini mempunyai pengikutnya yang setia – dianggarkan 4000 orang termasuk tokoh-tokoh kaum

Selain itu, dia juga antara mereka yang merancang untuk menyerang dan mengambil alih pentadbiran Islam di Madinah dengan mengambil kesempatan keadaan yang ketika itu sedikit huru-hara ekoran tindakan golongan murtad yang menentang pemerintahan Islam di Madinah. DIa beranggapan bahawa kerajaan Islam Madinah agak goyah selepas kewafatan Rasulullah SAW.

Namun, setelah berlaku pelbagai rintangan menghadapi tentera Islam dan Sajjah telah memerangkap diri sendiri dengan tindakannya sendiri untuk bergabung kuasa dengan Musailamah, Sajjah membuat keputusan pulang ke kampung halamannya di Iraq

Setiba di Iraq, Sajjah mengambil keputusan untuk mendiamkan diri sehinggalah bumi Iraq berjaya ditawan oleh tentera Islam lalu ketika kejadian itu, Sajjah menjadi tawanan tentera Islam

Tidak lama selepas itu, Sajjah mengambil keputusan untuk memeluk agama Islam dan menjadi seorang Muslimah yang beriman hingga ke akhir hayatnya

Jadi, persoalannya di sini, kenapa aku berkongsikan cerita ini pada kalian?

Aku pasti kebanyakan kalian sudah pun menemui jawapan kepada persoalan ini

Ya, betul. Aku berkongsikan cerita ini kerana aku mahu kita semua mengambil iktibar daripada cerita ini. Untuk buka mata dan buka hati, bahawa setiap manusia dan individu samada bukan Islam, Munafik, Fasik dan berdosa ini MAMPU untuk bertaubat serta kembali ke fitrah Islam yang sebenar, yakni menjadi Muslim/Mukmin yang diberikan ganjaran husnul khatimah, pengakhiran hayat yang baik.

Lihatlah, betapa dahsyatnya Sajjah di awal hidupnya, mengakui dirinya Nabi lagi mencuba untuk memerangi pemerintahan Islam dan di akhir hayatnya diberikan ganjaran Husnul Khatimah kerana hidayah oleh Allah SWT

Akhir kalam, aku harap kita semua, termasuk aku dan pembaca yang dirahmati Allah SWT diberikan ganjaran husnul khatimah di pengakhiran hayat kita nanti. Moga Allah SWT hiasi diri kita dengan hidayah-Nya dan hati yang senantiasa tetap di jalan kebenaran

Allah SWT berfirman,

“Dan barang siapa berbuat kejahatan dan menganiaya dirinya sendiri, kemudian dia memohon keampunan kepada Allah SWT, nescaya dia akan mendapati Allah Maha Pengampun lagi Maha Penyayang” – An-Nisaa : 110

Jadikan bulan Ramadan ini bulan barakah yang mencorakkan diri kita ke arah kebaikan. Allahualam.

Ada Apa Dengan Doraemon

“Ali bila nak matang?”

“Tak habis-habis dengan Doraemon dia”

“Suka sangat Doraemon”

Buat mereka yang mengenali aku di luar sana, pasti tidak akan terlepas daripada mendengar keghairahan aku berbicara tentang Doraemon. Ada juga yang bertanya ada apa dengan Doraemon? Apa yang begitu istimewanya karakter kartun Jepun berwarna biru berupa kucing separuh cacat ini? Comel? Kucing? Sebab apa?

Baru ini, aku menghadiri ceramah Bedah Kitab Ustaz Anas daripada Pusat Islam UniSZA. Di awal penceritaanya, beliau bercerita..

“..katakanlah awak minat dekat seorang perempuan. Awak asyik perhatikan dia dan tahu pasal dia. Katakanlah perempuan tu bawak kereta kancil warna putih. Hok mana setiap kali kancil warna putih lalu je, awak dok teringat kat dia sebab dia pun bawak kancil warna putih. Padahal nombor plat lain tu…

Macam itu jugalah bila awak minat ke Rasul. Awak tahu semua benda pasal Rasul jadi bila awak nampak je perbuatan Sunnah Rasul, awak pun terus teringat ke Rasul. Sebab itulah kita kena sentiasa buat perkara Nabi buat, supaya kita pun sentiasa ingat dekat Rasul macam mana Rasul sentiasa ingatkan kita..”

Jadi, apakah kesinambungan antara ceramah itu dengan Doraemon? Rasanya pembaca boleh mula kaitkan antara dua cerita ini

Doreamon berwarna biru. Biru itu kegemaran arwah aku

Doraemon merupakan makhluk berupa kucing. Kucing itu kegemaran arwah ayah aku.

Pernah juga diceritakan oleh ibuku bahawa arwah ayah dahulu suka menonton Doraemon bersama-sama anaknya. Kadang-kadang, terlewat maghrib kerana temankan anaknya.

Aku kehilangan arwah ayah aku ketika aku masih berumur 4 tahun

Aku beruntung kerana sempat merasa kasih sayang beliau yang cukup bernilai buatku. Namun begitu, kadang-kala timbul rasa ragu dalam diri aku.

Bagaimana jika suatu hari aku mula lalai dan lupa akan ayah aku?

Bagaimana jika aku terlalu sibuk dengan hal dunia dan akhirat, aku terlupa akan ayah aku?

Bagaimana jika hadirnya seorang lelaki dalam hidup aku, aku mula lupa akan ayah aku?

Lalu, penyelesaiannya aku memilih untuk menjadikan kegemaran ayah aku sebagai kegemaranku. Pada mulanya, aku membeli barangan Doraemon itu hanya kerana setiap kali aku melihat barangan itu aku pasti akan teringat akan arwah ayah aku. Namun, yang dulu hanyalah kerana teringat kini mula membiak menjadi suatu obsesi yang sukar dibendung

Doa, Yassin dan Fatihah sentiasa bersama aku buat arwah ayah aku juga. Itu semestinya. Cumanya, andai seorang kekasih boleh memilih berkongsi meminati citarasa lagu-movie-drama akan pasangannya kerana ingin pahatkan memori mereka bersama, ingin sentiasa mengingatinya, aku kira tak salah andai seorang anak meminati citarasa ayah kandungnya sebagai pelengkap memori mereka bersama yang kian memudar dan merisaukan hati kecilnya ini

.

Aku mungkin tak matang, aku mungkin kebudak-budakkan

Tapi aku juga punya rasa rindu pada cinta pertamaku itu

Aku mungkin bukan lagi kegemaran ayahku,

Tapi kegemaran ayahku akan sentiasa menjadi kegemaranku buat selamanya.

 Dan beliau juga akan selamanya menjadi jejaka kegemaranku

Al-Fatihah Allahyarham Mohd Nordin b Salleh <3

The Gen-Q

The Geng Bas Sekolah Gen-Q aka Generasi al-Quran! Macam mana nak jadi pewaris generasi Al Quran?

Kena masuk sekolah pondok jadi tahfiz dulu ke? Kena jadi wakil kebangsaan untuk MTQ Tarannum ke? Tak perlu. Apa yang anda perlu ada hanyalah al Quran, diri anda, semangat, istiqamah dan seorang Guru mengajar

Kenapa perlu semua ni? Kerana, untuk menjadi Generasi Al Quran bukannya hanya perlu menghafal seperti tahfiz, atau menjaga tajwid dan berlagu seperti ahli MTQ

Kita memerlukan hati dan akal fikiran untuk mendalami isi kandungan al Quran dengan mentaddabur dibawah perhatian guru dan fizikal untuk mengamalkannya dalam kehidupan seharian

Tak tahu bagaimana nak mula? Baca Al Quran pun merangkak?

Jangan risau! Allah SWT itu Maha Penyayang! Allah akan menilai setiap usaha kita ke arah Generasi al Quran walau pitching lari, walau merangkak, walau sekecil zarah sekalipun.

Antara cadangan untuk langkah awal menghayati bait Al Quran lalu terapkan dalam jiwa,

1.  Ketika sedih, instead of dengar lagu-lagu tangkap leleh dan jiwang seperti rock kapak. Kita hayati Surah Yusuf. Tak boleh baca? Download dan dengar bacaan Surah Yusuf. Hayati maknanya dan kisah disebalik Surah Yusuf

قَالَ إِنَّمَا أَشْكُو بَثِّي وَحُزْنِي إِلَى اللَّهِ وَأَعْلَمُ مِنَ اللَّهِ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ

Ya'qub menjawab: "Sesungguhnya hanyalah kepada Allah aku mengadukan kesusahan dan kesedihanku, dan aku mengetahui dari Allah apa yang kamu tiada mengetahuinya" [Yusuf : 86]

2. Student selalu ada masalah belajar. Susah hafal? Susah ingat? Fikiran tak tenang ketika jawab exam? Nervous presentation FYP?

Bacalah Surah Yassin buat menenangkan hati yang kelam-kabut dan berdoalah moga Allah permudahkan segala urusan

إِنَّمَآ أَمْرُهُۥٓ إِذَآ أَرَادَ شَيْـًٔا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ

" Sesungguhnya keadaan kekuasaanNya apabila Ia menghendaki adanya sesuatu, hanyalah Ia berfirman kepada (hakikat) benda itu: " Jadilah engkau! ". Maka ia terus menjadi."- [Yassin : 82]

3. Merasakan diri kekurangan sesuatu? Merasa diri ini tidak sehebat orang lain? Tidak sebijak orang lain? Hanyalah si malang dalam semua perkara?

Hayatilah Surah Ar-Rahman dan isi kandungannya betapa Allah SWT itu Maha Pemurah terhadap hamba-Nya

 فَبِأَيِّ آلَاءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ

"Maka nikmat Tuhan kamu yang manakah yang kamu dustakan?" - [Ar-Rahman : 13]

Ini hanyalah beberapa surah yang boleh dijadikan sebagai starter kepada perjalanan yang panjang dalam menjadi pewaris Generasi Al Quran. Masih banyak lagi surah-surah yang terkandung terlalu banyak pengajaran dan manual sebagai panduan hidup kita.

Apakah surahnya? Kita hanya akan ketahui dengan membaca, mentaddabur dan menghayati isi kandungan Al Quran tersebut

Selamat maju jaya anak muda

Tidak akan pernah terlewat untuk seseorang itu belajar Al Quran,

Tidak terlalu lewat untuk mengubati hati yang sakit kerana penyakit keduniaan 

Tidak terlalu lewat untuk seseorang itu bertaubat selagimana pintu taubat masih terbuka

إِنَّ هَٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ يَهْدِى لِلَّتِى هِىَ أَقْوَمُ وَيُبَشِّرُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ أَنَّ لَهُمْ أَجْرًا كَبِيرًا

" Sesungguhnya Al-Quran ini memberi petunjuk ke jalan yang amat betul (ugama Islam), dan memberikan berita yang mengembirakan orang-orang yang beriman yang mengerjakan amal-amal soleh, bahawa mereka beroleh pahala yang besar." - [Al-Isra' : 9]

Akhir kalam, Allahualam. Sama-sama kita bersahabat dengan Al Quran :)

A Broken Pearl;

A Broken Pearl

There were sapphires, there were golds,

But only pearl caught the eyes of an old,

An old sympathy her for an oath,

An oath that brutally killed them both.

You are too young and precious, my dear,

Don’t let yourself drown in their pool of desire,

You’re fooling no one except to yourself,

Remember, that thou shalt love thyself

A chunk of advice that's too late to swallow,

Where her world is now in wallow,

As she was crying with her knees on her floor,

For an aftermath, she wasn’t prepared for

Straycatz; 23/2/3017

The Wonderwall

They said,

 “Never go alone. Never put yourself alone too much. Slowly, you will grow fond with the idea of solitude”. 

Yes, solitude. The idea of peace and soundless environment. The idea of world without crowded noisy human

I used to be called as a happy pill. As a fun and happy go lucky girl who brings nothing but only happiness and positive vibes to others. I was extrovert - is what they thought

Slowly, gradually. That side of me has faded. I was already fall. Fall into the pit hole of solitude I wasn’t prepared for. It was a mistake that could never be fixed as I fell too deep that even a ladder nor string could pull me out of it. An aftermath that could never turn back anymore. I begin to build a wall. A wonderwall that separated me from the outside would.

I remember having a close friend. Yes, I did. It was nice indeed. I was having a lot of joyful moment. I was in cloud nine

I remember opening my heart, my feelings to others. They listened to me with all their ears. Like they were interested in me. Like they understand every bit of my problems and messed up life.

But,

A parasite. No, several parasites to be frank. Begin to consume all that pieces of memory and side of me. Old scars hurt me. The past haunted me. I have issues.

I begin to questions everything

What if they don’t really listen to me like everyone did?

What if they’re pretending to be my friends out of pity like you did?

What if they leave me someday and turn against me like she did?

What if slowly they loss interest in me and left me like he did?

What if I annoyed them that it’s too much now for them to handle just like others did?

The wonderwall of mine is thickening and growing by day. I started to keep an indistinctive line with my friends. I started to hold all the pain by myself. Never once expressed my feelings. I was never near nor far from them. I was in the middle line of grey of black and white. I could never express everything to them. I was choking. Something is stopping me from projecting that rough husky voice of mine.

I was alone but never lonely. The idea of solitude has controlled me. The anxiety and depression empowered me.

Hot cup of caffeine, slow-instrumental music, a sketchbook, a pencil and a book are my bestfriends during the day. A blue-striped blanket, pillows, a dark pitch-black room and again, the music are my best companion that keep me sleeping during the starry night. Sometimes the tears come join too.

That wall, is now so thick that even a wrecking ball could never breakthrough. So high that no one could ever cross over it.

For those who wonders what happened to me? What am I doing right now?

I am here fine as always. Secretly enjoying myself being alone behind this wonderwall of mine. Holding my faith, I was born with – Islam. Reaching for some bit of light with help of Quran to lighten up this broken dim heart I own and seeking for Him. Only Him. To help me gasping for some air. To keep me being alive. To slow down the parasites from killing me..

I am here. Behind the wonderwall. Hiding behind the mask of beautiful smile. Waiting for someone to reach for my hand and escape from it. Unlocking the closed heart. 

Sky Juice

Sky juice.
Sky juice tu apa?
Sky juice tu nama lain bagi air kosong versi glamour.
Kalau versi kampung nama dia air bujang
Jap. Kenapa dengan sky juice?
Ada cerita dia..

****************************

Petang. Panas. Kehausan.
Tiba-tiba ayah tiri aku tanya,
"Elly nak air? Nak air apa?"
Entah macam mana, ayah tiri Elly macam tahu tahu je Elly tengah haus.
Macam macam air Elly fikir.
Limau? Boleh buat sendiri.
Oren? Ada kordial
Sirap limau? Boleh buat sendiri

Lepas fikir fikir, Elly kirim air Neslo Ais. Sebab Milo tak ada dekat rumah ni.

Tapi entahlah.
Tiba-tiba tekak ni rasa macam tak nak sangat pun Neslo Ais tu
Rasa macam nak air lain.
Nak Sky Juice.

Elly bangun pergi ke dapur.
Basuh bekas air berwarna merah jambu lalu isi dengan air sky juice.
Elly telan air liur.
Sedap pula tengok sky juice ni.
Warna jernih dia buat Elly rasa tenang.

Elly jenis susah minum sky juice.
Selalu nak air manis je
Kenapa tiba tiba rasa nak air ni eh?

Oh. Mungkin badan ni dah terlebih gula. Dia rasa tak sihat.
Teringin sesuatu untuk bersihkan dia semula

Macam kita selalu sangat tidur lepas Asar, atau
Selalu sangat tengok movie lagha sambil kunyah jajan,
Tiba tiba,
Badan ni teringin nak bersenam.
Nak berpeluh,
Berjogging, berjalan, berlari

Mungkin kita terlalu lama amalkan gaya hidup tak sihat,
Badan pun datangkan perasaan untuk kembalikan tubuh yang cergas dan sihat.

Fitrah.
Fitrah anak Adam mahukan kebaikan. Mahukan kesucian dalam diri kita.

Sama seperti ketika kita terlalu leka,
Terlalu hanyut tenggelam dengan hiburan dunia,
Allah mula hadirkan rasa rindu untuk beribadah,
Untuk berehat seketika,
Dan kembali memikirkan akhirah.

Sebab hati kita yang kotor,
Rindu pada kebersihan.
Rindu pada kesucian.

Jadi,
Saat tekak kita rindukan sky juice,
Minumlah sepuasnya.
Sucikan semula diri kita.

Saat rindu kembali kepada Allah,
Ambillah air wudhuk,
Kerjakanlah solat sunat Taubat.
Ambillah Al Quran,
Baca dan hayati setiap bait kalamullah itu.

Bagaimana tekak rindukan kesucian,
Begitu jugalah hati rindu untuk dibersihkan.

Moga kekotoran yang telah menetap lama,
Akhirnya turut mengalah dan gugur jua.

Tips masuk Uninininininiversity

Assalamualaikum wbt. A junior of mine in Animal Science just dm-ed me at instagram. She asked a few stuff about Unisza and her course.

In few days, she is going to be registered as Unisza's student. So, I thought maybe I should share some of the tips I gain taken from my own experience

Here you go..
*****************************
1. If you're furthering your studies away from your comfort zone, try to learn their cultures. Get to know with them. Experience their traditional food. Try to be extra friendly with the villagers there. It cost you nothing to be nice. In fact, they might come handy in the future. Who knows

2. Your brain couldn't consume all that facts and stuff? You felt like you're the dumbest human being ever? Take a break. Take wudhuk, and pray solat taubat. Cry all you want. Like a new born baby if you can. Pray to Him. Seek for His help and guidance. Still cant consume much? Read Quran. Quran will light up our dark heart and give some space for knowledge to fill in.

Dont do last minute assignments and studies or else you might end up with a headache, stress, cold sweats and smelly hair lol its unhealthy. Do early preparations so that you can relax while others are struggling

3. If you're the kind of girl who loud spoken, tough, brave, brutal and cold-hearted, try to use this side of you to a good use. Defend those friend of yours who is weak and fight for justice. Extra note, its okay to feel weak and fragile sometimes. You dont have to pretend to be strong all the time

4. If you're soft hearted, always with that smile of yours and the yes person kind of girl/boy, continue being you. People in this world need the nice and warm vibes you people brought. But, please be extra cautious to whom you share your kindness with. It might hurt you sooner or later. Extra note, dont bottle up all your feelings and probs by yourself. Try to share it with your friends. They might not be useful but at least they can be there to cheer you up with stupid jokes, aite? And of coz. Its definitely okay to voice out your opinion if you're uncomfortable or irritated.

5. You burn the midnight oil, you push yourself to the fullest, you even consume a gallon of coffee to study and yet, that one friend of yours who you find always in deep sleep and relax got higher marks than you.

Congratulate them. Sincerely, not sarcastically (eg: Untunglah). They might put more effort than we will ever know, without us notice. Its okay to not be as smart as them. Life isnt all about grades, pointers or marks. There are more to it. Work harder for the next one

6. You got great grades but you cliques dont? Then, its okay to be happy but dont express it too much.

"Do not show your happiness in front of those who in sadness"

Try to be neutral. Comfort your friends, be humble and support them to work harder, together for the next test while treat yourself with something you've been crave of. Self-treatment greats in reducing  depression. The excitement can hold and when your friends are moving on with that grades, you can celebrate all you want! He he he he

7. When going out with your friends using their rides, its common sense to 'tong-tong' some money and pay for the minyak kereta. They may politely refuse to accept the money, so you need to force them to accept it. They might not express it but they too got their own financial problem. Not everyone with a car is anak dato or anak tan sri. So, thats the least you can do to pay some gratitude.

8. Group assignments. This is probably the most crucial. Lol. Its either you got a great teamwork or you're caught with piles of work.

Here some tips,
* ensure that you guys got a great and considerate leader who knows how to manage her/his anak buah. Great leader will lead to great teamwork. I can ensure you this

*if you think you didnt contribute much, try to spend some money for all the materials or stuff that needed to be prepared. Or at least, treat them with food you lazy ass

*if you're the type that love to do all the works (like me lol), pls dont push yourself too much and be greedy. Its a teamworks for a reason. Other members might uncomfortable with you if you keep doing this. They might end up choked up with guilty for not contributing much

*if you're the broke and lazy one, just told other members so that they can report you to the lectures and stop troubling others with your selfishness

9. DO NOT BE A SELFISH ROOMMATES. Pls. It's a simple common sense for you to keep the voice down when your roommate is performing a prayer. Its also common sense to ask for permission before you borrow or use their stuffs. Mind using a earphone or headphone when playing video or music unless your roommate is definitely okay with loud music. Its plainly rude to ignore other peoples feeling

And if you got a messy roommate, dont go spreading around the bad words to others. Try to consult with them and advice them instead. Point out the wrongs in manners of course. If you spread the words instead of taking action, you might end up worsen the condition

If you're the messy one, (again, like me lol) pls try to understand others. No. Not everyone is comfortable with room filled with stuffs. So, try to be considerate with each other

And if you brought your friends over, try to not be so loud unless your friends are also their friends.

Most important is - be considerate

10. Teacher's blessing is also as important as parent's. So, respect them and focus on their class. Dont let their effort and energy when into the drain. Try to consult with them as much as possible to ensure that you're fully understand. If you're close to them, its a easier so yeah. Be nice to them and you'll gain the benefits

In fact, be nice to all. To makcik kafe, makcik cleaner, pak guard and all. Again, it cost you nothing to be nice and polite.

11. Oh and also when borrowing some money, try to pay it back asap. And if they said you dont have to, try to pay some gratitude. Treat them to lunch, share some knowledge or help them or anything. I always did that coz I felt like I've been borrowing money recklessly.

When lending some mone to your friends that stuck in some financial issue, it'd be great if you halal it. Be consider and try to help those friends who in need. Niat sedekah.

Friends in need is a friends indeed huhu

12. Bump into argument with your friends? Apologize to them first (either you're the victim or at fault). Its not about winning the argument, its all about maintaining the healthy friendship. Lowering down your ego is also an achievement. Talk them and admit your wrongs. Try to give them /try to gain for yourself some space and time too. People do mistakes. Try to learn to fix our wrongs and forgive them

13. People talk bad about you? Insulted you? Its okay to listen to some of those. Ambil yang jernih, buang yang keruh. If the things they said hit through your heart, then muhasabah diri. Fix it. Its okay. People do mistakes and its about time for you to fix it so that great changes of yours can shut their mouth in the future.

You did good and people still talk bad about you? This is where ignorant is a blessing come handy. Be ignorant and avoid all that negative vibes as much as possible. There are thousands of people that still love you for who you're. Be with those who love, not with who you try to impress

Their words hurt you? Suck it up, mate. This is the harsh truth. This isnt school. This is the pre-world you're going to face soon. So, get ready to be hurt by people words.

In fact, they're also swindlers, back stabbers and more. So, brace yourself to face it. This is why you must be EXTRA cautious. The wolf might hiding under the sheep's wool and you dont know who is yet your true friend....

The best solution is to open up to greatest listeners, Allah SWT when dealing this kind of probs. Share your probs to Him.

Extra note, try listening to Surah Yusuf when you're feeling under the weather and understand the stories behind it. It will soothes your aching heart. Good luck

14. Hijrah-ing? Wanting to change yourself for the better world? Try to force yourself in spending some of your leisure time at nearby masjid/surau. You'll meet some great people, inspired by them. You'll also notice this weird but calm vibes when you're there. Spend time listening to tazkirah and all. Record and jot down important notes. They come in handy in the future

Extra note, try to join Usrah. Here's a thing. USRAH ISNT FOR GOOD PEOPLE. Wait. What? Yes. Usrah is actually for those who wanted to be good people. So, try to join usrah

Usrah filled with flirtatious Islamic girls / guys? Then, try to advice them PRIVATELY. Try to do some changes instead of confessing it on socmeds. They got mad at you? Leave the group and try joining other usrah. If they cant accept your words of advice, they might not fully welcoming you to the group in the first place

15. Last but not least, holidays. Try to went home every time you got a long holiday (min: 1 week) like Hari Raya Haji and etc. Dont be like me. You'll end up in misery missing home more than anything. Homesick is perfectly normal. Lol.

You might think the ticket is a bit expensive. But, when you spend your time with your family. You'll notice the bus ticket that cost you rm50 is nothing compared to that priceless moment

(This one isn't applicable to those who studying in S&S, or to those who live in S&S but studying in Semenanjung)
****************************
There are more that I wish I could share but I think I already typed long enough and you might get tired of reading lol.

So, to end this post. I'm wishing best of luck to all juniors out there! Welcome to the new world. May Allah ease your road and bless your daily ahead. Amin ya rabbal alamin

Sorry for the inconvenience. Hope this post might come handy. Assalamualaikum wbt.
