Ponder This

Assalamualaikum

Just sharing. It's one of the notes I found on Wardina's official FB page. Copy paste je teeheee. Pegi la melawat, byk lg notes yg bmanfaat and inspiring utk kita baca. She's such a good writer. :)

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

Dear Mama, Ummi, Mum,  Ibu, Bonda...

I have to share this with you... because i feel so happy and i feel that all my penat lelah paid off...

I started to make my Amna to solat 5 times a day when she was 7, on her 7th birthday...we had a talk...(check note lama) tapi preparation since 6 la...tapi dari kecik memang selalu ikut2 la kami solat....she hasnt missed her solat since. Walaupun lambat, tetap solat. I made sure of that - because the key is SOLAT ni kalau tak tanam dari kecik memang LIAT nanti....But it is very important to keep this in mind:-

1) kalau kita bagi dia tinggal WALAUPUN sekali nanti we are sending the wrong signal - kena make sure - every waktu without fail, walaupun penat, ataupun lambat

2)l Selalu kalau boleh solat together..mula2 memang kena solat together....kalau tak ada rumah make sure an adult in the house pastikan anak kita solat. (hari tu Amna pergi her reading class, i asked her teacher to take her to the suarau) - lepas solat time tu lah peluk cium, senyum - i always kiss her at the head and say "Barakallahufiha" Ya Allah make my Amna a good Muslim Ya Allah....make her never miss her solat Ya Allah.....kuat2 bagi dia dengar....ps:-kalau kena amik cuti ambillah - bukan waktu exam je amik cuti - buatlah STEP ini, yakni melangkah ke alam 7 thaun dan tidak meninggalkan solat A BIG Thing! "mama amik cuti hari ni sebab nak pastikan yang adik solat 5 waktu sehari!"

3)Selalu cerita how IMPORATANT it is to solat..how Allah is watching us... how we are good Muslims when we solat, how Allah loves us, Solat tu, untuk kita, bukan untuk Allah.....TAPI selalu jugak cerita yang akan ada orang TAK solat...acknowledge the fact that sometimes we feel lazy to solat....itu semua kerja SETAN! Fight them off....! I tell Amna that even some grown ups tak solat! I tell Amna that....we have to be strong.. we have to tell ourselves we will NEVER miss our solat.....

4)Awal2 subuh ni memang tak bangunkan, tapi as soon as dia bangun pagi, ill ask her to solat straight away.(yes memang leceh..but we have to, and we have to do it with LOVE diselang seli dgn strictness)

5)kalau dia tinggal -  DENGAN sengaja, i take the rotan and hit her on her tapak tangan slowly, just as a reminder. After that i hug her and tell her i love her, and i just want her to remember - and guess what?? memang dia ingat!!! (3 kali baru, i think not bad, sampai satu hari dia terlambat solat, sebab keluar dan memang tak ingat, dia yang suruh rotan) But i tell her kalau TERLUPA atau TERTIDUR its ok...but kena solat terus bila bangun.

Macam ni ceritanya, i told Amna, kalau Ummi ambik Amna dari sekolah lambat, Amna solat dulu Asar kat sekolah....tadi memang datang lambat...i was loking for her..and guess what????

She was actually praying her Asar prayers...sorang je kat dalam surau tu....i wanted to pengsan and cry...she did all by herself.... i pun told her how happy and how proud i was of her...i tanya dia kenapa? dia kata "Amna ingat apa Ummi cakap".....cair nya hatiku ini.

Apa lagi, Ummi ni peluk cium dia....and called nenek at Australia...now im sharing with all of you!!! Because i want us to raise generation of good Muslims that are disciplined, smart, intelligent -that remembers Allah because  the world so BADLY needs good QUALITY Muslims like this!!!

And the foundation is - to start them off right - solat at SEVEN! Yes just as how Rasulullah asked us!

I love you all!!! Good night.....

But the key to all this IS Mak Ayah KENA dan WAJIB solat dulu...anak ketam tak boleh diajar berjalan terus...fahamkan?

** i took that picture of Amna praying from my table, dia sendiri bangun solat Isyak...without even bothering me..berbunga hati seorang ibu....

Tacing kan? Subhanallah. :)

Syoknya Puasa

Assalamualaikum

Ya Allah, halusnya cara Wardina Safiyyah ni mengajar anak2 dia bpuasa. Pendekatan yg sgt bagus pd pdapat aku. Aku mmg minat dgn Wardina ni, da la bertudung, solehah, cantik, petah bkata2 and sopan jgk. Klau nk ikut pkembangan dia, klik 'like' kt page ni. Aku suka cara dia terapkan Islam kt anak2 dia. Takde paksaan contohnya dlm bab puasa. Budak2 yg belum akil baligh mne diwajibkan puasa kn so klau anak dia mengadu lapa, dia akan suro berbuka je. Tp anak dia still tanak berbuka unless dah masuk waktu. Itulah hikmah yg Wardina ckpkan, ble kite tak paksa anak2, insyaAllah one day akan tgeraklah hati dorg utk buat snri mnde tu. Lme2 anak akn bpuasa dgn kerelaan hati sniri dan jgn lupa igtkan betapa nikmatnya bpuasa especially bila time berbuka puasa. Kita akan rasa kemenangan sbb da bjaya menahan diri dr mkn, minum dan berbuat maksiat. Mintak maaf klau msg xsmpai sgt sbb aku ni xde la pndai sgt menulis (UPSR Penulisan dpt B hahaa!) and klau nk bdakwah tu, amatlah jauh skali. Tp benda2 ni sekadar peringatan utk kita. Aku pn kena belajar byk lg pasal kehidupan dan Islam. Rasa diri ni cetek sgt ilmu psl agama.

Nicely done. You're my role model, Kak Dina. Dia tekankan isu solat dlu lps tu baru bpuasa. Sbb mcm dia ckp, ada org yg bpuasa tp xsolat. Padahal solat tu tiang agama. Astagfirullah, btol2 trse diri ni kerdil sgt. Byk kelemahan diri yg aku kne baiki. Kne betulkan diri sniri dlu sebelum nk mengajar org lain. And menempuh alam perkahwinan (?). Ohhhh lambat lagi. Jauhhh lagi tuuuu. Ehem.

Ape2 pun, I wish I can be a mom like her too. One day, insyaAllah. ^_^

I've seen rainbows that could take your breath away, 

The beauty of a setting sun that ends up a perfect day, 

And when it comes to shooting stars, I have seen a few,

But I've never seen anything as beautiful as you.

Of Friendship and Beyond

Assalamualaikum

The moment when you feel lonely and someone send message just to ask how you're doing. The moment when you're bored and your friend suddenly ask you out. The moment when you feel like crap but people still say how lucky they are to be your friends. The moment when you're about to cry and your friends are there to comfort you, through thick and thin. The moment when you think you've hurt someone but the next day, she will call you first and say she's happy hanging out with you. The moment when you think you've complained too much but your friend still glad you're a part of her life. The moment when you're being so dramatic but your friend will still choose you and be by your side. :')

Haa ni la moment2 yg aku face spnjg setahun hidup dgn roomate2 yg tsyg hihi. Well, actually da 4 tahun kita kenal. Dpt dok satu umah tu kire eratkan lg silaturahim kan kan?

Roomate satu - Bae. I love how you always agree with me on so many things. When I feel like everything is against me, you'll always support me. Thanks dear friend. Aku suke gak ble ko cite kt aku ble ko ade masalah or thoughts about anything. Rse mcm dipercayai. Pmpn kn kdg2 suke pkir sket. Aku mcm tu gak Bae! I love how you always make sure the kitchen is clean before you do any cooking. Bgus2, tu la sbbnye dapur kite slalu bersih good2! I love how you say you look fat in your dress but the fact is Nurbahirah; ko tak gemok langsung okay? I love how you always comfort me in any situation. I know sometimes tu mmg ade salah aku, tp ko yg jnis ckp terus terang je ape ko rse. Org kte, straight to the face. That makes me feel better. I love how you manage to spend time with me although you have your own problem to deal with. Aku suke ble ko sgt2 particular psl certain things mcm cthnye klau nk bli heels, nk yg ade kotak jee hihi. And baju2 sume nk cantik2 je. Beg pn branded. Ko da influence aku lahhh, mak datin :p And plg best, I love when you ask me to reach for high things kt dapur. Hihih peace Bae! ;)

Roomate dua - Daly. Thanks for being super duper sporting and outgoing. You're so easy to get along with and sng cite, ko mmg cool abes lah hihi. Ade skali tu, aku igtkan ko mrh aku sbb muke ko masam je tp lps tu ko kate ko x prasan lak ko wt muke. Hahha apelah aku ni. Pstu kt Branscomb mse kite jd roomate, ko penah kejut aku sbb fire alarm bunyi. Sbbnye. Ko overcook something dlm microwave. Asap penuh satu corridor weh. Hahha aku da la tgh tido, bgun2 je tros batuk2. Haha kalat2. And mse kite pegi New York bulan Mei ritu, aku suke gile kot. Dpt spend mse ngn ko and mak abah ko. Thanks sbb ajak aku pegi bcuti skali. Yela parents x dtg time graduation kn sobs. Ultimately, thanks sbb dgar aku bebel2 psl certain things aku rse ko pn da muak nk dgar haha. All in all, thanks for being the coolest person I've ever known!

 

Roomate tiga - Aliya. The most attractive thing about you is your softness and humbleness in advising me. Ko pndai tegur org and bg nasihat without being so offensive. Aku cuak kot ble ko start tny2 ble aku de wt something mcurigakan (lol). It's good to know when people care about you kan. And thanks sbb jd roomate yg best. Rjin kemas dapur, kemas umah, mmg sgt layak buat calon isteri ni hihi. And many thanks to you sbb ajar aku yg kite kne ada positive thinking towards others. It helps me a lot hihi. Btw, aku rindu gile lah banana pudding ko. Sedap gile kotttt. And ko slalu cite psl kwn2 MSA ko. I honestly, love to hear about it. I'm sorry for that one incident that I know, had broken your heart. Mintak maaf sgt2, aku ni kdg2 x pikir pjg. I promise I won't do it again. And lastly, I love you for being cheerful, being happy-go-lucky, being so caring and simply, being you.

 

Thanks kwn2 yg awesome!! I wish you guys nothing but the best in your life. Nnt jgn lupe jmput aku klau ade kenduri *ehem2* ke ape2 ke. Hihihihih. Miss korg gila2 lahhhhh. T_T

Hmmmmm...???

Assalamualaikum

Sje nk cite. Ade skali tu mama dropkan kt satu tpt ni suro bli nasi goreng sotong. Aku pn trn kete ngn Irah. Tggu punye tggu, pakcik tu kate total RM 9.80. Aku baya dgn duit note RM 10 and aku ckp, "Takpela, amek la baki tu". Aku xsure pakcik tu dgar ke tak tp die bg baki dua posen tu pstu muka masam je. Shooot aku de wt salah ke. Aku pn erk dgn kalatnye blah dr situ. Aku gtau mama psl ape yg jd. Mama kate, "Kt sni (Malaysia) and US tak sama. People kt US view thing yg akak buat tu differently. Maybe klau akak buat mcm tu kt org US, depa lebih appreciate kot. Pakcik tu maybe tanak terasa mcm org kesian kt dia. Dia just nk buat business dia so dia nk exact amount of money la, bukan sedekah2". 

"Ooooooooooooooooooooohhhh"  *angguk2 byk2 kali*

Tp aku still xpuas hati dgn pakcik tu sbb dia x senyum haha.

Drive Drive Drive

Assalamualaikum

I've always wanted my own car. My cousin bought hers once she settled down for a job. As for me, I was granted one from Encik Ayah after I returned to Malaysia last month hehe. Sjak blk dr bulan Jun ritu, aku jarang drive. Satu, sbb mmg xbyk klua umah pn. Kwn2 still kt college. Lg satu, psl pemandu2 Malaysia yg sgt "bhemah" haha fobia weh. Dorg bwk kete laju2, aku jd x confident tros nk drive. Dgn x bg signal, and ade yg men mcelah je. Sukati kau je igt jln bapak kau ke haha.

Anyway, di suatu petang yg hening, aku ajak Encik Adik jd co-driver for the day. Aku da pesan kt die, jgn bwk aku pegi highway or tmpt2 yg diyakini bahayanya *hahah kantoi tatau jln kt Seberang Jaya lol* Ok2, pstu Encik Adik gtau line mne kne ikut sume. Die tlg tgk2kan kete gak. Adoiii padahal kt Vandy byk je drive, siap drive for few hours lg. Tgh elok2 drive, tetibe aku tnmpk kt hujung jln tu kete mmg laju2. Mak aih, ko bwk aku msuk highway jugak ke dik? @$#^%^&%$& betol lah. Takpe2 cool2. Agak kalat di situ tp seb bek Encik Adik suro amek exit sbb klau pegi tros, da nk msuk Penang Bridge. Mmg tak dinafikan, laju cm pelesit kete2 kt Penang ni, kalah KL wooo. Kwn aku kate, driver kt KL lg ok dr sni nyer. Ok dr segi ape, haa korg mai la Penang test drive kt sni. Meh meh meh *promo Penang nmpk*

Ape2 pn, klau aku x start engine kete and drive sniri, sape nk buat utk aku kn? Kne la pndai2 ade anjakan paradigma *aku pn tatau kebendanye tu*. It's now or never baby. ;)
