batu oh batu

saban hari batuan dicipta demi sebuah tembok kukuh...
sebijik batu harus kuat, kukuh dan tegar agar tembok yang hendak dibina takkan meroboh.

tembok kukuh mulai dibina, dibina dan dibina... namun tengtibe..
kenapa macam goyang di sini-sana?
why oh why?

owhh rupanya bila disemak, ada wujudnya batuan yang rapuh di sini, situ dan sana.
maka binaan goyang,
bila kena tiup angin skit, dia gegar2.
pastu cam crack. here and there. owk-oww!

result: devastation.

resolution: wahai batu, kenape awak rapuh? kesian batuan lain.. penat2 mereka cuba menjadi batuan ter-terer seperti diharap oleh penciptanya. tapi kerana awak, maka tembok kite cam goyang2. batuan lain pun jadi hancur sebab awak tak kuat. camni lambat lagilah fort kite nak settle. kerana batuan rapuh camnilah yang akan melambatkan proses pembinaan itu. sedih nye.

"saya tak larat dah! jangan kira saya dah. tayah susah2 nak susun saya! saya taknak jadi batu dah!!! saya bukan lagi dalam golongan batu. maaf," demikian kata awak satu hari.
masa tu kite nampak tukang simen tu gelak.
dia gelak dalam kesedihan.
dia gelak kerana takleh nak percaya,
batu boleh pulak taknak ngaku batu.
nak jadik pasir.
batu ialah batu, kerana ia dicipta bertujuan untuk menjadi batu!
thats final, ok?
its sort of stated onto ur fingerprint.
"saya batu".
so jadiklah batu sejati.

purify the soul.

A young couple moves into a new neighbourhood.
The next morning while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees her neighbour hanging the wash outside.
“That laundry is not very clean”, she said.
“She doesn’t know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap”

Her husband looked on, but remained silent.
Every time her neighbour would hang her wash to dry, the young woman would make the same comments.

About one month later, the woman was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband:
“Look, she has learned how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this?”

The husband said, “I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows.”

And so it is with life. What we see when watching others..depends on the purity of the window through which we look. ^^

Hadith 6 (in Forty Hadiths of Imam Nawawi):

On the authority of Abu 'Abdullah al-Nu'man bin Bashir, radiyallahu 'anhu, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam, say:

"Truly, what is lawful (Halal) is evident, and what is unlawful (Haraam) is evident, and in between the two are matters which are doubtful which many people do not know. He who guards against doubtful things keeps his religion and honour blameless, and he who indulges in doubtful things indulges in fact in unlawful things, just as a shepherd who pastures his flock round a preserve will soon pasture them in it. Beware, every king has a preserve, and the things Allah has declared unlawful are His preserves. Beware, in the body there is a flesh; if it is sound, the whole body is sound, and if it is corrupt, the whole body is corrupt, and behold, it is the heart."

[Al-Bukhari & Muslim]

Wallahua'lam.

1. Are you Passive?

Are you a passive person? When you see something wrong, do you try to fix it or do you wander on comforting yourself that for sure someone else will fix it? When you're walking down the street and you see something on the sidewalk and you know that someone might slip on it, do you pick it up, or do you look the other way as if you didn’t see it? When you see someone smoking in a non-smoking area, do you kindly bring the persons attention to what he's doing wrong, or do you just cover your nose, or leave the place? When was the last time you participated in a public poll or in elections? Remember the last time you saw someone double parking and you knew that he's going to cause a traffic jam, did you go and ask him politely to park somewhere else so that the traffic flow wouldn't be disturbed? Or did you just say to yourself, "Isn't there an officer around here to see this?" and then you just walked away. Why are we so passive? Why do we always believe that "someone else will do it"?


Why don't WE take an action? I'll tell you why, because if it doesn't directly affect us, then why should we care? Or, "we won't change the world, so why should we care?" Right? Isn’t that the reason? That's not the Muslim mentality, that's not how a Muslim should act. The Muslim community is ONE body; if one organ is not functioning it affects the rest of the body.


Do you think for example that as long as you don't do drugs then your safe? Think again, because your duty isn't just to prevent yourself from taking drugs, but to help prevent it on a larger scale as much as you can. How many people are robbed by addicts that are desperate for money to buy drugs? How many people are killed by addicts? Those that were robbed or killed, they didn't do drugs, but it still affected them indirectly. Does this mean that if we see wrong we should get aggressive and force people to do what's right? Of course not.


Our Lord, The All Mighty says, "Invite (all) to the Way of your Lord with wisdom and beautiful preaching; and argue with them in ways that are best and most gracious: for your Lord knows best, who have strayed from His Path, and who receive guidance." (16:125). We must maintain the balance between "taking an action" and "being wise and not offending people".

Some examples:

The Companions asked the Messenger of Allah, "Will we be destroyed even if the righteous ones are amongst us?" Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) replied, "Yes, if corruption increases."

It was also reported that Allah ordered Jibreel to destroy a village that had become extremely corrupted, but Jibreel asked Allah, "O Allah, in this village is your servant that constantly prays to You", Allah replied, "Start with him! For his face never changed with disapproval to what had been going on." Because this righteous man was passive, he too was punished with the sinners.

Omar ibn Al-Khattab said, "If a sin is committed in private, it only harms the one that does it, but if it is committed in public and no one objects and changes it, it will harm everyone!"


The Messenger of Allah (pbuh), the greatest teacher, gave us a great example to demonstrate the importance of this Islamic behavior. "The likeness of the man who observes the limits prescribed by Allah and that of the man who transgresses them is like the people who get on board a ship after casting lots. Some of them are in its lower deck and some of them in its upper deck. Those who are in its lower deck, when they require water, go to the occupants of the upper deck. The occupants of the lower deck said to themselves, ‘If we make a hole in the bottom of the ship, we shall not harm the ones who are in the upper deck.’ If they leave them to carry out their design they all will be drowned. But if they do not let them go ahead (with their plan), all of them will remain safe."

patience is virtue

In the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Ever-merciful. All Prayers and Blessings of Allah be upon our master, the most noble Prophet Muhammad. We praise Allah, thank Him, seek His help, guidance and forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah from the evil in our souls and the sinfulness of our deeds. “Whomever Allah guides, then he is right-guided, and whomever He leads away into error, then you will never find for him a right-minded patron” (TMQ, 18:17)

Today we are going to deal with one of the most essential manners our religion dictates, patience. Often, young men come to me complaining that they are unable to lower their gazes. I always tell them to be patient, but alas, they think I only say it to end our conversation, and so, they never take this advice seriously.

Some say that they keep trying to perform fajr (dawn prayer) and qiyam (voluntary night prayer). To them too, I say, be patient. Unfortunately, most of us think that patience in performing such acts of worship on a daily basis can never be a practical way of life. The word ‘patience’ itself is incredibly practical. People forget that patience is one of the bases upon which rests the system of heavens and earth. Not only does it apply to humans, but it is also a cosmic rule; the whole universe is based upon the concept of patience. Think about the fetus in its mother’s womb and the different, consecutive phases of its development. Think how you grow up day after day. Think about plants and how they grow; as they do not sprout suddenly. Do you see now how all that is in the universe is based on the concept of patience and gradualness? Even Allah (TWT) created heavens and earth in only six days, though He (TWT) could have created them in a single day, in the twinkling of an eye, or even faster than that. However, that would have deprived us of benefiting from the wisdom of it.

By creating heavens and earth in six days, Allah wanted us to realize that patience is not merely a human behavior, but rather everything in the universe is based upon the principle of patience. Nothing can be accomplished without patience. To achieve success in your career, you must bear 16 years of education. To become closer to Allah, you must patiently maintain good deeds. Giving up sinful deeds, such as smoking, requires patience, determination and firm self-discipline.

Therefore, scholars say that ‘Perfection in life and faith relies on patience.’ For example, bravery cannot be a trait of an impatient person. Construction of canals and dams cannot be carried out without patience, let alone building whole countries. The realization of economic development plans depends on patience. Being dutiful to one’s parents regardless of what they coerce one into is actually a sort of patience. In case they ask you to do things you are not keen to do, you will need patience. Likewise, shortcomings in faith take place when similar ones in patience exist. Adulterers are so because of their impatience to be abstinent. If drug-addicts were a little more patient, they would not have sought this way to escape from their problems.

It is said that the soul is the mount upon which one rides to either Jannah (Paradise) or Hell, and that patience is its bridle. Your soul’s bridle is patience; you should always remember that if you give it full rein, it will lead you to wherever it wills. The literal meaning of patience is constraint. Being patient then means that one puts oneself under constraint in order to carry out righteous deeds, to abstain from sinful actions, or to accept without frustration and constant complaining in times of affliction.
