From Aku, with love

We thought we have everything but there's always something that we lack or we don't have. Other people have it . We feel sad. We feel very sad. We pray to Allah to have it. And we pray harder. But Allah still doesn't want to give it to us. He will give other things that will make us happy. There's a reason why Allah won't let us to have it. Allah wants us to remember that we are not perfect. We are like other people. You have this one, I have that one. Just accept it with an open heart. Allah wants to test our patience. There are many times the word "sabr" mentioned in Al Quran. Only Allah knows what is the best for us. We don't know . We are just His slave. Only He knows. He is our Creator. Just be good. We will get the rewards. Insya-Allah.

 Today, my husband took me and our son to my sister's house. I was so happy to meet her, my brother in law and my niece. Then my sister told me that it's Mother's Day today.  Alamak I forgot to wish my mother. After that he took us to AEON to buy t-shirts for our son. While waiting for them, I called my mother to wish her "Happy Mother's Day". She's very happy to hear that. Then we left AEON. I thought my husband was going to take us for lunch but he stopped at Ariani. He gave me his debit card and asked me to buy any tudung that I like. And I bought two hahahaha. Guys cannot trust ladies when it comes to shopping. I didn't like that brand before but actually I didn't wear branded tudung . Now, I start collecting that tudung. I wear it only for certain occasions. To my husband, thank youuuu. Before having lunch, we went to the MITC mosque for our Zuhur prayer. After we reached home, my husband asked me to go to my garden. I went there and saw him w...

 Other than my RR gang (DnA friends), I have a new gang now. My masjid gang. Last time, before the MCO they called me ,"cikgu". I just called them ,"akak". After I started praying in the mosque again, we asked each other's name. Yalah it's like a new beginning. It's more "mesra"lah. I only go the mosque for maghrib and Isyak prayer. And listen to the religious talk - fiqh , sirah,...oklah tu. Alhamdulillah. But I still remember my breakfast gang at school. Today, I met one of them at Marrybrown Restaurant. Adik NF who was with her sister and her cute son. I gave her a hug.  Miss that lady. So happy to meet her and her family.  There's another former colleague that I met , Miss T. It was last Ramadhan. Really-really happy to meet her. I was inside my husband's car at that time . She knocked the car window. I was shocked. I came out of the car and hugged her. She told me that her father had passed away. And I told her that I just lost my ...

I went to a mosque, I saw a green dome, I stopped, Thinking of someone, A person that I admire, A person that I miss. A loving father and grandfather, Also a caring friend and leader. A great man but very humble, His patience and kindness touch my heart,  An orphan that melts my heart. He's Muhammad, Our Rosulullah (SAW).

 This morning, when I was in a restaurant, a young Chinese guy said hello teacher to me.  He looked very happy . I told him that I am a retiree now. He said, " I know  teacher. The students made you stressed". Sighhhh. It's not because of them. I told him that I couldn't teach anymore. Enough la.  I was so tired and I want to focus on my family. And he knows that I always love my students. Smiling, he said , "yes". He is 21 years old now and has a diploma. I didn't  teach him. I think he was in the last class but he always spoke English  with me at school. Oh ya, he took part in my drama when he was in form four.  We got third place in the district. I noticed that his English is good now.  He had an accident four months ago and he's looking for a new job. I advised him to be careful. Hope he will get a job that he likes. 

 When you feel angry with someone, Remember the kind thing that he/she had done, It will soften your heart. When you feel worse in your life, Say Allah, Allah , Allah many times, It will give you strength. When you feel to cry, Just let the tears fall on your cheeks, It will ease your burden. When you feel happy, Ketawalah, Laugher is the best medicine, It will release your stress, It will relieve your pain.

 Before leaving for Hajj, Feeling of sadness, Thinking of our children, Will they be ok? Before leaving for hajj, Feeling of worried and scared, Thinking of our never ending work, Thinking of our house and car,  Will they be ok? Before leaving for hajj, Feeling of excitement, Thinking of Mecca, Thinking of Medina, Blaming the time for going so slow, Are the batteries ok? Before leaving for hajj, Feeling of love,  Thinking of Allah, Choosing us to be His guests, And everything will be ok, Insya-Allah.
