Random Post

I have no mood to blog, but I wanna write. Well, today I was feeling unwell, but it is getting better alhamdulillah. There are only two things that yasir told me if you are not in good condition. Drink warm water as much as you can and Sleep. It works, alhamdulillah. Never take medicine easily, if you still can bear with it. 4/5 days left to ramadhan! I miss ummi and abah so much. Yesterday I called her, she was like, 
"Bila, ummi kangen. cepet pulang nak". T___T

I was wishing, praying and wishing, if my parents can transit to Malay instead of Brunei. They wished the same too. But then, can't. They still have to transit there, before travel to Macca for umrah. I really wish. Well, I talked to abah also, he watched my video for my performance during festival seni uniten. He still can't believe, every time I talk to him after he watched, he still like, 
"Bila, beneran itu? kok berani sih nari saman dgn nyanyi? kok bisa? kok PD? itu beneran anak abah kan?" HAHA ohh

Yeah, my parents call me 'Bila', well most my family do. But here, bila means when. haha, so they prefer to call me with full name or else just 'Nab'. But, I prefer people call me 'Bila'. :)
(What I write here just rubbish)

p/s: Ramadan is four-five days away. What have you done to prepare for it? :) Grab the blessing. Once a year and we are so lucky, Allah still let us to face this month. Alhamdulillah

Marhaban Yaa Ramadhan

Everyone starts to count down the days for ramadhan. Marhaban Yaa Ramadhan. Marhaban Ya Syahrul Syiam. I feel so excited for next month, SOO EXCITED. I don't care of how many projects I have. I don't care of how many assignments I have. Quizzes, presentations, lab report, tutorial and final exams. I don't care (sure) for not going back during Ied. I don't care (sure?) will spend my ramadhan without family. Having my brother in Malaysia, but it seems that he isn't here. I am alone (not), Allah is with me. :)

Ummi told me, if no reasons to be afraid, not enough sleep? don't have supply for using the brain? Naah, on the other hand, insyaAllah by Allah's blessing, every single dunya thing is nothing. Some more, He will make it easy for you. Just believe in Allah.


p/s: please don't try to knock, until the right time comes.

July!

Everything is in july.

I have saman dance training. (dance? saman?) Ya! An unpredictable girl who named Nabila is brave enough to go out from her 'normal' zone. I never perform a dance. I don't have any idea how nervous it would be. I don't have any idea how people will look at me. I don't have any idea why I choose this. Well ya, less than a year I will leave this university, so it-is-simple I just want to do the unusual thing of me. This year, I also force my Indonesian friends to open booth during cultural night, I just want to do this before I leave at least. I wanna people see how different Indonesia and Malaysia! Even there is less of Indonesian students here means the work-force also less. But nothing can make our spirit decrease. INDONESIA! I just love Indonesia! I love no matter what happens before or now, no matter what. I don't care. I was born there. I grew up there and I wanna go back to give my contribution. Even it is small.

This week I just helped my club to organize the talk for 'Strategic Thinking of Muhammad Al-Fateh'. It was nice talk, though.

School. I never ever take a side of it. I should prioritize my study here. Yes, I have 2 big projects for this semester, Communication System and Creative Thinking. I enjoy for doing the project of creative thinking, well that's the only subject which I can relax during classes. I have to write a report for Random Process. I have lab test. I have presentation. Assignments. Oh, this semester is really killing me!

I might be busy, but my heart can not lied. I feel no feeling. Now Allah is testing the patience of my family. Everything is in this month. Everything. Allah. :(

Ramadhan is just around the corner, around 15 days left insyaAllah. Prepare everything from now! Your Iman and everything. This blessing month - never ever waste it with unimportant activities. Grab His blessing! :)

He is the one who can heal my heart. :cry:

Fatimah's Story (r.a.)

The story before she got married with Ali r.a. ...

Fatima was 18yrs old, so the men starting coming to her father requesting Fatima in marriage. They all wanted to be related to the Prophet. Abu Bakr, then Umar ibn alKhattab, then Abdul Rahman ibn Auf all came asking for Fatima's hand in marriage, and the Prophet in a nice way turned them back.

The Ansar then started telling Ali why don’t you request Fatima. He said, 'I don’t have much'. They said, ‘But the Prophet loves you’. So he went and sat in front of the Prophet peace be upon him and did not say a word.

The Prophet pbuh said, ‘why are you silent O Ali?’
He did not say anything.
The Prophet pbuh said, ‘maybe you came to ask for Fatima's hand in marriage?’
He said, ‘yes that’s it, that’s it’.
The Prophet pbuh said ‘do you have anything to marry her with?’ He said, ‘no O messenger of Allah’.
The Prophet pbuh said, ‘do you not have a dir3 (shield) that I gave you once?'
He said ‘yes, but its not worth more than 250 Dirham.'
The Prophet pbuh, ‘I will let you marry her with it’.

He brought the dir3 to the Prophet, and the Prophet pbuh sold it for him and came with 250 dirham, and so he gave a portion of it to Bilal and said, ‘O Bilal, buy with this some perfume for Fatima’ and he gave the rest of the money to Ummu Salama and said, ‘buy for Fatima the clothes and necessities of a bride’. See how the Prophet pbuh is dealing with this, his daughter is going to be a wife.

Ali came after a day or two and said, “O Messenger of Allah, I paid the mahr, so when am I going to marry Fatima?” (he was embarrassed).

The Prophet peace be upon him replied, ‘today if you want’.
He said, ‘yes, O Messenger of Allah’.

So they invited the people and slaughtered an animal. The Prophet pbuh said, “if a person comes to you of whom you are satisfied with his deen and his character then get him married, if you do not there will be fitnah on the earth and great fasaad (evil)’.

This is in our time now. Fatima was riding on a camel, and Uthman was directing it. And the sahaba had their swords raised up as a form of celebration. And the women were surrounding Fatima, and some anasheed were being sung. Afterwards, Ali and Fatima entered their simple house which was further out from the Madina (not in the city center) because that was all Ali could afford.

As they were about to enter the Prophet said, ‘O Ali don’t get up to anything (don’t get close to her) until I come to you’.
Ali says, ‘so I sat on one side of the house and Fatima sat on the other side’.

The Prophet came and placed his hand on her hand, and he began to make du’a, he said,
‘O Allah, Fatima is a piece of me, O Allah Fatima is beloved to my heart, O Allah Ali is my brother and the most beloved to me, O Allah give them Baraka (an increase in all that is good) and place on them baraka and unite them on good, O Ali place your hand on Fatima’s head and say, ‘O Allah I ask you for the good in her, and for the good that she was created for, and I seek refuge in you from her evil, and the evil that she was created for, O Ali, may Allah place baraka among you’
(Taken from islamway.org)


I do really wanna have a love story like Fatimah’s, Rasulullah’s daughter.
Do you know if Fatimah has loved Ali before they got married?
But she never showed it to Ali until Allah united them together into a marriage bond.

Maybe only Allah who knows her feeling.

Betapa Fatimah pintar menjaga perasaannya dan bersabar menjaga harga dirinya sebagai seorang wanita. Betapa Fatimah begitu percaya akan takdir Tuhan tanpa harus gundah akan rasa cintanya pada Ali. Dan betapa Allah berbaik hati memberikan Fatimah rasa cinta kepada orang yang tepat, orang yang memang Dia takdirkan menjalani separuh agama bersamanya.

Don't Lose Hope in The Mercy of Allah (38:53)

Don't put question mark when Allah puts a full stop. (anonymous)

We always ask why our du'a never answered? Somehow, you are doubting your du'a. Allah gives you mercy, Allah gives you hopes.

...and do not lose hope in the mercy of Allah; indeed none lose hope in the mercy of Allah except the disbelieving people." - [Yusuf 12:87]

So, in which category are you? Now, I'm in a bit doubtful. I have so many things to decide. If I don't seek His help, who else I can ask for? No one! except Him. Only Allah in my heart. He knows everything I need. Maybe, He won't give what are things you want, but He will give things you need.

Hope for the Hopeless

Well ya. That's what I feel for Indonesia's conditions lately. One of Indonesia's labor in Saudi Arabia got Qisas Law. Yes. She is died in Saudi around 2 weeks ago. I don't really know the problem why she got that execution. Ruyati binti Satubi. What I read in Jakarta Post, Indonesia 'feels cheated' by Saudi Government. They just carried the execution without letting Indonesia government in advance. (I'm not really sure for this fact). I know only a bit, if Ruyati often abused by her employer, did not receive her salary and her request to return home was denied.

I quoted from a law expert from Universiti of Indonesia,

“In qisas [the principle of ‘an eye for an eye’], someone who commits murder must be sentenced to death. But that applies only when that person does it with ill intention, [which was not the case with Ruyati],” he told The Jakarta Post. “No Indonesian migrant worker who comes to Saudi Arabia has bad intentions, or intends to kill someone there."

We must withdraw all our migrant workers there until we have a proper protection system for them, said from one of social activist. (What The???!!) Are you sure? Are you letting almost a million people who counts as workers in Saudi missing their job? Do you have large field work to promise them jobs? How about their families? Do you know if this is the biggest income for Indonesia?

That's what I thought when I heard the news, but then it makes me re think again, and i think that's good or even the best. Stop It. Stop to send our workers to work oversea let say, Saudi and Malaysia. We are kinda tired. Those rich countries indirectly do 'occupation' to us. We are independence country, are we? They always make us a shameful. And, I don't like Saudi's government for the first place. I don't like some of Saudi's people, when they come to Indonesia, they just WRECK image of Islam. They come and do what they aren't supposed to do. Some more, because of this case. Some people said bad things for Qisas law. There's nothing wrong for this law. There is one nice quote,
Never ever judge Islam by its follower, but judge Islam by its teaching.
Saudi should know if we are A COUNTRY too that has DIGNITY. Yes, dignity. We are poor, yes YOU are rich country. But can't prove it by this way!

But, we can't see from only one side. Indonesia has to fix their government too. They should take care MORE to the people who work, study or live outside Indonesia. And yes, I read news today, said if Saudi stop to receive the labors from Indonesia. Great! another problem comes again, to our country. Loads of unemployment people will be hugely increase. FYI, there is more than 6 millions Indonesian workers who work oversea and mostly are women.
  
And what i feel extremely sad is, there is list of 25 people who sentenced to death in Saudi Arabia and several other cases. Ya Rabb! Is there any hope for a better Indonesia?
