Islamic Sharing : Self-protection 1

Assalamualaikum. Ayat atas ni saya tak pernah tahu apa maksud dia. Tapi di ajarkan oleh seorang kakak senior waktu sekolah dulu.

Waktu tu saya form4, dia form5. Kadang-kadang balik sekali. Jalan kaki kan. Dan selalunya sepanjang jalan itu ada anjing banyak. Dah lumrah sejak kecil budak melayu takut anjing. So there's one day, kakak ni kata, pakcik dia kata whenever kita rasa takut, takut dengan anjing ke apa ke, baca ayat ni dengan yakin.

So I did amalkan it till today. Harini baru tahu ia dari Surah Al-Masad. Surah yang selalu la juga dibaca. Tapi tak pernah perasan ia adalah sama. And Allah turunkan ayat ni sebab Abu Lahab ni mencerca Rasulullah s.a.w..

As related from several written accounts, when the Prophet was commanded to present the message of Islam openly, he ascended the Mount Safa one morning and called out aloud the people of Quraish. When the people had assembled, the Prophet said:

"If I was to warn you of an army behind the mountain that came to attack you, would you believe me?"
They replied: "Yes, we find you the most truthful amongst us."
Then the Prophet said to them: "Verily, I am a warner sent to you all before the coming of a severe torment."
From the crowd, Abu Lahab spoke and exclaimed: "Damn you! You called us for this? May you be destroyed!"

Saya still tak tahu sangat apa kaitan cerita ayat ni dengan boleh bantu kita against benda yang kita takut. Apapun, sepanjang saya amalkan ayat ni, every time anjing datang dekat, dia akan senyap, dan berpatah balik.

Pernah satu ketika lepas balik Solat Jumaat di Masjid Ubudiah, Ampang. Jalan kaki, lalu sebelah lori besar untuk jalan di padang, dari jauh dah intai dah ada tak anjing, tak nampak. Bila lalu sebelah, Allahu Akbar! Kuat betul bunyi nyalakkan anjing, saya automatically baca "Tabbat yada abi lahabiw watab" non-stop sambil jalan slow-slow. Dalam hati mengharap sangat Allah tolong, mengharap sangat tak di apa-apakan oleh anjing itu.

Alhamdulillah.. anjing kembali reda, dan saya tarik nafas panjang. Berjalan seperti biasa. Moga sedikit sebanyak share ni, dapat bantu anda juga! ;]

I am freaking out because I am not freaking out

Understand my words? This is regarding my Diploma-Semester 4 result. It will be release/announce on this friday, 27th April 2012.

I have lived up to 20 years. Therefore I know why I didn't freak out and act calm. Maybe my instinct are wrong, but so far, it is always correct!

Anyway, whenever I act calm, like there is nothing happen, where else, my result will be coming out in few days, that is mean, my result won't be as great as I hope it will be. It will be moderate........ by moderate I mean moderate... not so impressive. Whatever it is, do say ALHAMDULILLAH okay faris fikri!

And whenever my heart beats fast, I act terribly nervous and FREAKING OUT, good news will arrive.. News that I have been waiting for!! KUN FAYA KUN

Thus, I am freaking out now because I didn't feel the feeling that I should feel, feeling that I want me to feel, so that I will get what I hope for.. But people do says, "expect the unexpected". Starting from now till this friday, I will squeeze my brain till I found the answer. The answer that will be the words that I will be using to tell my parents about my result.

I hate telling them the unimpressive result.

Dreaded!

Satu-satu aku tengok kawan seangkatan tarik diri dari course Diploma in Science ni. Kenapa korang keluar? Ada alasan tersendiri. Okay. Rasa sedih, takut. Sedih sebab bila lagi nak jumpa korang kan? Even duduk satu negeri, nak jumpa bukan main susah. Takut pulak sebab takut i'm going to be next. Hope tak la. Kalau boleh nak habiskan diploma ni, and teruskan mencapai cita-cita saya! YESSS

Semester ni kena struggle okay Faris Fikri!! Semester lepas jatuh teruk. Teruk sangat. If I keep jatuh lagi, I might tak boleh teruskan cita-cita untuk sambung degree. Dalam plan pengajian kami, result CGPA semester-4 adalah satu penimbang. If pointer lepas had minimum, korang still berpeluang teruskan cita-cita nak sambung belajar, if not, korang akan diberi laluan kerjaya. =,=

Kalau berjaya complete-kan sem-4 ni, saya tinggal dua semester je la. InsyaAllah. People says lagi naik sem, the harder it is. I will try my best. Kali ni, setiap kali balik rumah, Mak Ayah selalu ingatkan "Faris, jaga pointer sem ni, naikkan, kata nak ________. Okay?"

Pertama kali dengar parents cakap macam tu, rasa terharu, sebab all this time dorang tak pernah bagi pressure or bagitau harapan dorang, kali ni, saya rasa betul-betul bersemangat untuk STRIVE THE BEST! Terima kasih Mak, Ayah.

Dan oleh kerana itu juga la, saya akan jadi teramatlah cuak bila nak quiz or test, sebab aim saya untuk dapat full-marks! Maka dengan itu, bila dapat markah yang tak seperti yang diharapkan, hampa sikit. Takutnya, takut tak boleh buat, takut tak boleh jadi macam kakak saya. Saya nak berjaya macam kakak saya juga! Saya nak capai cita-cita saya juga!!

Setiap kali rasa sedih, rasa macam nak menangis, saya tahan. Sebab apa? Bukan sebab nak cover macho, tapi sebab tiap kali nages mesti hidung tersumbat, mood nak bersedih terus hilang. HAHAHA. Disamping tu, selalu saya doa, moga Allah tabahkan hati saya. If things goes opposite, kuatkan iman saya! Aminn Ya Rabb ;]

Awak, awak, dan awak! Ye awak la, tolong saya boleh? Tolong bagi semangat bila saya hilang semangat. Tolong marah bila saya alpa. TERIMA KASIHHHH!
