Believing in God.....


My heart broke to see this.  The story is very similar to mine.

  • three siblings
  • all girls
  • she was the eldest
  • the disease related to brain 
  • died on the 1st of Syawal
The only thing that makes the difference is I didn't have time to put on her baju Raya.  All were ready, I planned for us to wear baju raya and have a family photo on the hari raya, no matter what condition she was in.  I took both of her sisters to KL, just to celebrate raya with her. But Allah's plan was the opposite. 

What I have lost was never meant to remain in my life.  What has come into my life was meant to come. I do not waiver on this belief.

Believing in God doesn't make the pain go away.  It makes it manageable- there is ease and relief coming.

Believing in God doesn't remove the wound, but it bandages it and helps it heals.

Believing in God and fate is what reminds me that everything I experience serves a purpose.

Knowing that Allah encompasses all things in His wisdom makes me absolutely sure that what is meant for me will come, and I hope and trust that it is good.

 After a few days of no progress, this particular news hit me the most.  Alhamdulillah, finally my manuscript has been published.  To see my name written on it as the first author is something that I can't believe. This one means a lot to me. It is not an easy job, being rejected twice from another journal, I just try my luck sending to this SiELLE journal.  It was accepted but with so many revisions (corrections) needed.  Yes, there are many until I feel like I rewrite a new paper (manuscript). It took me a few days to settle all the revisions before resending them to the reviewers. As expected, nothing worth having comes easy. There comes more revisions. 😅😅.To cut a long story short, here is where the manuscript belongs. Thank you to all who are with me in this manuscript making from the very beginning, may Allah ease the next step until the end. Amiin..     To read the full paper, click here

Satu hari dalam perjalanan pulang ke rumah, tiba-tiba sebuah kereta hampir2 melanggar seekor anjing yg sedang melintas jalan. Spontan reaksi saya,” nasib baik tak kena kereta, kalu tak kemek!”..pintas cik abang, “eh kenapa pulak nasib baik tak kena kereta? Nasib baik tak kena anjing la. Mana lebih penting nyawa anjing ke, kereta?” saya terpukul dengan jawapan itu. Sebenarnya pesepsi banyak orang melayu khususnya saya, anjing itu binatang yang hina, tak berguna, garang, ditakuti dan dibenci. Pesepsi itu diwarisi sejak turun temurun mungkin disebabkan statusnya sebagai najis mughollazah, iaitu najis berat maka kita seboleh mungkin cuba untuk menghindarinya. Malah di Malaysia, banyak kes anjing gila yang menyerang manusia. Di tempat saya mengajar sekarang nih, ada seekor anjing milik tuan punya bangunan yang sangat besar dan ‘garang’. Setiap kali ke situ, saya akan berdoa sambil mulut tak abis2 mengucapkan ayat 'summum bukmun~. Kalau bernasib baik, saya tak akan berjumpa dgnn
