Heart

I never get bored to write about heart. I believe heart is the most valuable thing that you take everywhere. Yes, everywhere. Or wait, is it possible for you to take out your heart when you feel 'too much things'? Hehehe A big no, ain't it? 

One action that consists two words when you are dealing with heart : TAKE CARE!

Based on my experiences, taking care of your heart is really difficult, too many obstacles. For me, you won't deal with yours alone, you deal with everyone heart, then it comes to habluminannas. It is. But, if you think the other way around, sorry to say, but yes, it is one of the characteristics of an egoist. :)

The one and only person on this earth who had clean and pure heart was our beloved prophet Muhammad (pbuh). Allah asked the angel to take out Muhammad's (pbuh) heart to purify it, and of course by His amazingness, Allahu Akbar. Well, we are trying our best to follow him. Allah, please always guide us. Heart does need to be pure and clean.

I am worried of my heart will drift further away from Allah and feel lost without His Guidance. T_T

Imam ibn al-Jawzi (ra) was once asked:

"Is it better for me to make Tasbeeh (praise Allah) or to make Istighfar (seek forgiveness)?"

He replied:

"The dirty robe is more in need of soap than perfume"

Simple words. It does mean that, we have to prepare our heart before you fill with the love to Allah. The heart is the house of Allah and therefore before we intend to place Him within our hearts we have to ensure that it is clean and free of the sins, and this can be achieved by seeking the forgiveness of Allah from our sins. A taubah, a repentance.

Dear Seeker of Islam;Seeker of Submission;Seeker of Deeds;Seeker of Jannah,

Do stop to wait for the right time to change. There is no such a right time for it. Wake up!

Allah listed in Quran :

“The day that neither wealth nor sons will be of any benefit except for he who comes to Allah with a pure heart.”- Qur’an, 26:89

There will come a Day when NOTHING will benefit you except a pure heart.

…Is your SOUL ready to meet its Creator? T_T 

Are you ready for it?

“…to clean you thereby and to remove from you the whispers of Shaytan and to strengthen your hearts, and make your feet firm thereby.”- Qur’an, 8:11

This section is designed to enable you to put the heart back in your actions. No more empty movements and mumbled words in salaah. Love your Creator! Begin the process of self-purification now!

Smoking Reduction : 50%

All praises due to Allah. ALLAH LISTENED MY DUA. Alhamdulillah YA Rabb. Alhamdulillah 'ala kulli hal.

People! You don't have any idea how HAPPY am I right now. Super duper happy. Having full mark for test? FYP progress? Done with projects and assignment? NO! Wrong guessing. 

I just received a love SMS from my beloved father, I can't stop smiling and my happiness is bloated up now. Do I over act on this situation? Of course, not. This is the moment where I was waiting since years. I do wait this thing to happen long time ago.

Abah sent me SMS :

"Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb. Bil, abah sampai skrg sudah berhasil 50% ngurangi rokok. Km boleh tanya umik. Insyaallah bisa berhasil 100%. Doakan yaa sayang."

p/s: HELP ME! I can't stop smiling. Thank you, Allah. Thank you!! Alhamdulillahi rabbil alamin. Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah. Abah, I always here supporting you, always Bah. Always and always. I love you for the sake of Allah. Love you! :) :)

180 Miles Away From Wishes

29 February, its once in every 4th year, leap year that is. Nothing special about it, but somehow it has uniqueness, so I write this post as if in another 4 years later on, I could re-read again this post. Another 4 years, who am I gonna be? A wife - insya Allah, of someone out there who has big heart to deal with me in rest of his life and maybe become mother. Errr, what am I talking about? Allah knows best about it! :)

Well, here we go I wrote down list of wishes, where I wrote it? On my mind. I really have some plans of what to do this year, graduation is one of it.  In my 7th semester, many friends asked what is my planning after done with the degree? Really, I only have rough plans of it, my big desire is, I really want to continue my studying, I wanna be a lecturer one day insya Allah. But if my luck isn't there, then maybe I will work which is related with my field of course, again these are only my rough plans, I don't want to put so much hopes on it, since I experienced so many times, if I am too optimistic with plans usually I won't get what I want, Allah is the best planner, ain't it? Well another wish that hasn't became true yet is, I wish that my father could stop smoking by this year insya Allah. Starting from last 2 weeks, I keep sending him messages, some of it he replied back. This is the one of the examples :

"Abah sayang kan sama Nabila? Kalo sayang jauhin rokok ya, please banget. Nabila sayang Abah." -  (Abah loves Nabila right? If you love please stop smoking. Nabila loves Abah)

I don't really know whether the messages will touch his heart or not.

Talk about wishes and those things, I kinda always do day-dreaming recently (isn't that my hobby? lol) I feel like, the playing times are enough for me, the past 21 years is more than enough for not becoming real serious in life. Am I that old? Wohoo! Time does flies real fast.

This semester is another disaster for Uniten students, I have 3 elective subjects, which are two of them have another big projects as well, yes it is excluding my FYP1. I chose Image Processing, Applied Telecommunication and Radio Frequency (Microwave Engineering) as my elective subjects. Don't ask me why I chose them, it is simply I want to know more about it and a lil bit feel interested, though. Okay, I think this writing is enough to write something to remember in the next 4 years, insya Allah. I have so many things to read on, I have meeting with my supervisor tomorrow for progress report 1. Wish me luck, fii amanillah Nabilaaa! :)

ISWS 2012

Indonesian Students World Symposium 2012 - ISWS 2012

Last friday, all the active Indonesian students in Uniten had their chance to attend ISWS. Actually, it comes from Dewi's invitation - the new foundation girl, she sent us sms for attending the symposium, she got the invitation from PPI-M (Persatuan Pelajar Indonesia Malaysia). Well, the symposium started from 16-19 February 2012. But we only have invitation for second day, yes they invite all the Indonesian students from all University in Malaysia, but they give us the limitation for the number of student from each Uni. Min 5 students, max 10 student. Well, it doesn't make any matters for Uniten students, since the total of us now not even reach 10 people. So, here we go, we all came to the symposium.

Since the first day, all the representatives Indonesian students from all over the world had meeting. As far as I know, there were at least 27 countries. From UK, Japan, Sudan, Portugal, Australia and many mores. The priceless thing is, to know if there are brainy Indonesian people out there who are struggling over the world. They were just simply awesome. Indonesian ministers came for the 2nd day symposium, they gave some talks, Hatta Rajasa-Minister in Economy field, Akbar Tanjung and etc. But there are some important people didn't attend, we assumed they got corruption cases (Ohh Indonesia!) one of it is Anas Urbaningrum well we know what his problem is. 

Hatta Rajasa gave us advice to come back 'Home' after gaining knowledge from outside Indonesia, make the contribution for the better Indonesia. Do it for Indonesia, not other countries. As we know, the brainy Indonesian usually choosed to spend their entire life to live outside, they feel more appreciated. Hmm...

Currently, there are more than 14,000 students who are studying in Malaysia (only) and 20,000 students study in Singapore. What a number?!

All I could say, it was priceless oppurtunity to sit and listening some talks. Well, eventhough I could attend one talk, because I have FYP meeting in the morning and FYP class in afternoon.  Seeing those students made my spirit bloated up. Indeed. Indonesia has really bright future, insya Allah. We have.

Here are the pictures of us (don't get a chance to take picture with the ministers):

Adit, Bang Jhon, Hana

Nabila, Robin, Hana *lagi :p

Alhamdulillah, I hope I could maximize any opportunities during my last year in Uniten. Bismillah.
