"Understand" & "Just Accept" Can Be Separated

Assalamualaikum.

Todays entry is kinda a bit of self-conscious (i think..em. maybe.) and i guess can only be accepted by those who felt the same things.

All this while, i thought everything need to be understood in order to be accepted. 

This theory i've been using applies on human mostly. on one's character i guess. need to understand one's behavior, why one did that, why one is like that, any hidden history that lead to this and that, all those that encompasses every possible reasons behind the present behavior of oneself. 

i've been doing a lot of thinking. em.

It's quite depressing actually. especially for those whom i can't seem to take it or accept it. until i can understand it, i seem to be, not rejecting it, but rather, kinda repulsive unto. 

It's not like the kind that make you hate that person, but just a slight dislike in the heart, as such you can still treat that person well, but there's this small feeling of discontentment toward some things that one did, or towards that person itself.

Astaghfirullahala'zim.

i feel really bad (T_T)

well, some make me more attracted to them. in such a way to understand them better. because their undefined-dunno-where-it-come-from hidden charm are stronger than the repulsive unacceptable-kinda-dislike-dunno-why feeling.

i think everyone has this feeling. pretty sure of it. but the different between us all is how we tackle this feeling. to accept it, rejecting it, or rather like me, always choosing to look for an answer to understand and try to accept.

while i was browsing the fb's newsfeed, i came across this one quote. which become sort of an answer to me, or at least make me realize something. 

This proves something. my theory, i don't think they're totally wrong. i still, do think that we ought to understand something first before we can truly embrace it or accept it well. but this theory however is flawed a bit. the missing part is that not everything need to be understood, but rather, need to be accepted, unconditionally. 

maybe some thing, some people, are just born to be like that. lets now learn to accept. it's not gonna be easy however, but nothing is impossible. if we fail to, try again. try to accept. try to like. 

i don't want to keep having such discontentment feeling toward a person for i can't accept his/her act. it feels kinda suffocated inside. for i know it's not a good thing. such feelings are all little whisper from the Satan to ruin us humans. this is a fact.

for i want to be a Muslim with good, pure heart insyaAllah, so i want to always purify this heart from even the smallest spot. 

may Allah grant us bless to be a better Muslims. Let us strive together =)

The Blessing of Islam

Assalamualaikum.

must watch! ^^

If asked what is the biggest blessing you ever had, what would be your answer?

Shouldn't it be Islam itself?

"So which of the favours of your Lord would you deny?"

(55:77)

"Blessed is the name of your Lord, Owner of Majesty and Honor"

(55:78)

The blessing to be born as a Muslim. The blessing to know Islam. The blessing of having receive the word of Islam. The blessing to accept Islam. The blessing to be a Muslim.

* too tired to write. but want to share this awesome vid here. something beneficial is meant to be shared, not to be kept by oneself. May we can all benefit from this. InsyaAllah. 

Assalamualaikum

"Assalamualaikum"

Seems familiar ryte?.. mesti la, salu bagi kan kat sedara sesama Muslim^^

tapi sedihnya jika salam yang diberi hanya sekadar satu perkataan yang hanya menjadi suatu adat, bukan dengan hati yang ikhlas. 

Sesetengah orang suka bagi salam. Alhamdulillah. Bagus di situ^^ tapi make sure bagi salam tu betol2, agar tersampai apa yang kita nak doakan kat orang tu. jangan cuma "semekom!". haha. apa maksud tu? bahasa baru kah? pastu yang menjawabnya will go like " we-kommsalam!" . ehe elok lah sama2 xdapat apa2.

Alang2 nak bagi salam, sila bagi dengan elok2, dengan betul. 

"Assalamualaikum" . 

kan ke lawa tu. alah, setakat tambah masa satu saat je nak sebut bagi betul, tak rugi pon kan^^ baru leh dapat pahala free. 

"Waalaikummussalam". 

sila jawab ngan relek je. tak yah nak rush2. tak lari pun si pemberi salam tu. kalau dia lari pon xpe.. Allah mendengar doa kita untuk dia. tu yang penting. =)

Ada pulak kes di mana sesetengah orang segan nak bagi salam sebab takut orang cakap dia warak sangat or such. emm.. 

Ehe, I used to be that kind of person. well, sort of. shame on me. tapi syukur disebabkan oleh teguran seorang doktor, beliau dah berjaya cipta satu impak besar kat hati ini. ehemm. hehe.

Kita bagi salam kat orang untuk mendoakan kesejahteraan orang lain. dan di saat orang lain menjawab salam kita, kita juga didoakan kesejahteraan oleh mereka. Subhanallah. senangnya kita didoakan orang lain. free2 je. best kan^^

"Assalamualaikum"

"Aku berdoa semoga kamu  sejahtera" , a very warm meaning of the As salam. an indirect expression of love =)

Memberi salam jangan lah dijadikan hanya sebagai adat. Di saat mulut mengeluarkan kata salam haruslah hati dengan ikhlas bersama niat mendoakan kesejahteraan orang lain. 

Bagi diri ini yang dahulunya tak jadikan salam sebagai suatu kebiasaan, bila jumpa orang, text etc. hati selalu rasa macam nak doakan kesejahteraan orang, maka "Assalamualaikum" menjadi pembuka. rasa seronok bila kita doakan kesejahteraan orang lain. 

Try it yourself, with your heart wide open wishing may peace be upon him/her. 

"Assalamualaikum"

Appreciate This and That Simple Things.

Life is always seem so as busy that we sometime forget to appreciate simple things in our life. Right?

~To have a drink on hot, sunny day.

~Seeing joy of a family-be it our own family or not. because i think family bond is the sweetest joy^^

~getting a 'thank you' from someone even if we only did a small deed

~Seeing a warm smile of others

~watching clouds in the wide beautiful sky (my favourite!)

There are a lot of things that can make us warm inside and smile only if we appreciate that simple things or should i say gifts? Sometimes happiness doesn't directly need to fall onto us to make us happy. Seeing happiness, joy, the colors of life, the present of oneself or even yourself is happiness itself.

The world is created with variety of creature-humans, animals.. we are not alone. and that is why there are more reasons for you to be happy.

As much as smile is contagious, so does kindness & happiness.

Why don't we pause for a moment. re-live. just for a while; appreciate & enjoy life & especially the life around you. those people around you. Why not start with trying to listen. understand. feel. appreciate. and showing gratitude. The complex life can be simplified with some love, care, or just a simple smile-to strangers, foes, and friends.

this is such a lovely, beautiful and inspiring video. must watch ne^^

~life is a gift, and the only appropriate response to it is GRATEFULNESS~

^^

Everything also gone broken

All my electronic beloging; laptop, handphone, sim card (?) -- half-broken, and not to mention heart, which is now still under construction - going to rebuilt it to a stronger, better heart that it used to be.

I'm mad. and i have nothing to lie about it. every human have such feeling, the difference is that how we manage those feelings. this being here is trying to be a better human, but sometimes she fell too. 

i stumped and sat there for a while.

thinking. thinking hard. what to do, and why..why is this happening all at once?

the broken laptop, the broken handphone + just knew the-not-good news. erghh. 

i've been cheated - not cool. kinda like, hurt?.. mad?.. furious?..all mixed

the person i asked about then laugh at me, for that she knew i've been cheated - that's rude!

now what i'm going to do?.. how am i going to solve this?.. trade in and buy new one?.. or let them fix it and use it like i knew nothing bout it?.. or just let it be and use my old hp??

ohhh gerammmmmmnyaaaa!! >,<

sabar..dear self.

(is furious, but this time not to the point that feels like crying,,just...soooo furious.huk)

***

for the things that happened, i'm not gonna cry. i've cried enough (for the simple heart problem which i failed to handle), not this time. i'm gonna stand strong (hope i can! >,<)

come!

there might be some other bad things coming to greet me, but i'm gonna face it with brave. those bad things might 'kick' and 'punch' me till i collapse, and even cry maybe.. and so, for the tears i'm going to shed, i will try my very best to be a better and stronger person than before. 

i might cry a lot after this. and so, if i forget,  remind me, remind me that i should stand stronger. 

i'm gonna collect back each and every pieces of the broken me, glue them together or knead them all over again to make a stronger me!

Dear Allah, alhamdulillah for all this things You gave me; bad or good, are all just earthly test, for the next eternal life. Indeed Allah is The All Knowing. 

"Innalillah wa-inna ilaihi raji'un- Truly to Allah we belong, and truly to Him shall we return"

A true Muslim by Islam or Muslim by religion?

Islam and Muslim might be somehow synonym but they are too, are actually not the same.

Born as a Muslim who's still learning and of course there's a lot more i need to learn. But to be a part of today's society, I think I need to contribute a bit of my little knowledge, to at least let people know of this basic 'little thing' that they seem to miss.

How are Islam and Muslim differ??


"Islam: the meaning comes from the Arabic verbal noun (like gerund) s-l-m. When appropriate vowel markers are added the word Islam appears. The etymology of s-l-m is to submit, accept, or surrender. From this comes Islam's conventional definition of surrender to God."

Islam is a religion, where it teaches people to believe in Allah as the only God and Muhammad pbuh as his messenger. This basic concept of being a Muslims might seem simple, but you need to learn and practice it in order to be a real Muslim by Islam . To tell everything about Islam would need a more detail explanation of course. ^^ Islam is easy to those who believe and practice it in the right way.

"Muslim: also has the roots in the s-l-m verb. It is a participle of the verb and refers t a person who engages in the act of submission, acceptance, or surrender. Therefore a Muslim is a person who submits to the will of God, or a follower of Islam."

So basically, Muslim is people who believe Allah and Muhammad pbuh as His messenger, but are divided into two, Muslim by Islam (Mukmin) and Muslim by religion (Muslim).

Muslim by Islam is the people who practice Islam in the real Islam way and as taught in the Holy Quran. But Muslim by religion is the people who choose Islam simply as a religion they want to or born with; and then they live with it, without fully following the real Islamic way of living and practice.

I'm not going to talk about this by the way, just additional info =) based on what I learnt through my 21 years of living as a Muslim.

Muslims are also people. A human being. Be it Muslim by Islam or Muslim by religion, they are indeed nothing but a human being, created by God like any other humans with other religions in the world .

Terrorism are always associated with Islam. Have you forgot that the Muslims too, are normal human being like those people from other religions?.. When there's an event of terrorism or such, Islam will be accused as a fault.

How are Islam as a religion to be accused for the wrongdoing of the imperfect human action? Isn't it nothing but a taboo or another stereotype narrow-minded thinking of people?..

To people who do not think, do not judge a religion by the action of those people calling themselves follower of the region; as human will never be perfect. There are people who practice the religion the way it should, in the right way. and there are also people who's being an extremist, who thought whey're doing what they do for the sake of Islam, when Islam doesn't actually ask or teaches such thing.

Basically, Islam is holy religion which promotes peace to people, a religion for everyone, a way of live. Whereas Muslim only describe the follower of the religion, imperfect humans like any other humans practicing other religion.

To judge Islam, do not look at its follower, look at the religion itself. Read and learn about the religion, then only talk.

There's this awesome video that I like, wanna post it here, but something went wrong with my blogger video link, so i'll just give the link here:

Don't Hate Islam.

enjoy~!

"O mankind! We created you from a single soul, male and female, and made you into nations and tribes, so that you may come to know one another. Truly, the most honored of you in God's sight is the greatest of you in piety. God is All-Knowing, All-Aware. (Quran, 49:13)"
