it would be happy news to the husband too. coz anything that is home cooked is good and filling to him (even if just fried eggs with nasi panas and kicap) *awww..*

an inspirational poem that i could read over and over again.... could bring me to tears...
DOA SEORANG ISTERI
Ya Allah Ya Rahman Ya Rahim
Kau ampunilah dosa ku yg telah ku perbuat
Kau limpahkanlah aku dengan kesabaran yg tiada terbatas
Kau berikanlah aku kekuatan mental dan fisikal
Kau kurniakanlah aku dengan sifat keredhaan
Kau peliharalah lidahku dari kata-kata nista
Kau kuatkanlah semangatku menempuhi segala cabaranMu
Kau berikanlah aku sifat kasih sesama insan
Ya Allah
Sekiranya suami ku ini adalah pilihan Mu diArash
Berilah aku kekuatan dan keyakinan untuk terus bersamanya
Sekiranya suami ku ini adalah suami yg akan membimbing tanganku dititianMu
Kurniakanlah aku sifat kasih dan redha atas segala perbuatannya
Sekiranya suami ku ini adalah bidadara untuk ku di Jannah Mu
Limpahkanlah aku dengan sifat tunduk dan tawaduk akan segala perintahnya
Sekiranya suami ku ini adalah yang terbaik untukku di DuniaMu
Peliharalah tingkah laku serta kata-kataku dari menyakiti perasaannya
Sekiranya suami ku ini jodoh yang dirahmati oleh Mu
Berilah aku kesabaran untuk menghadapi segala kerenah dan ragamnya
Tetapi Ya Allah..
Sekiranya suami ku ini ditakdirkan bukan untuk diriku seorang
Kau tunjukkanlan aku jalan yg terbaik untuk aku harungi segala dugaan Mu
Sekiranya suami ku tergoda dengan keindahan dunia Mu..
Limpahkanlah aku kesabaran untuk terus membimbingnya..
Sekiranya suami ku tunduk terhadap nafsu yang melalaikan..
Kurniakanlah aku kekuatanMu untuk aku memperbetulkan keadaanya
Sekiranya suami ku menyintai kesesatan
Kau pandulah aku untuk menarik dirinya keluar dari terus terlena
Ya Allah..
Kau yang Maha Megetahui apa yang terbaik untukku
Kau juga yang Maha Mengampuni segala kesilapan dan ketelanjuranku
Sekiranya aku tersilap berbuat keputusan..
Bimbinglah aku ke jalan yang Engkau redhai
Sekiranya aku lalai dalam tanggungjawabku sebagai isteri..
Kau hukumlah aku didunia tetapi bukan diakhirat Mu
Sekiranya aku engkar dan derhaka
Berikanlah aku petunjuk kearah rahmat Mu
Ya Allah ...sesungguhnya.. aku lemah tanpa petunjukMu..
Aku buta tanpa bimbinganMu..
Aku cacat tanpa hidayahMu..
Aku hina tanpa RahmatMu..
Ya Allah
Kuatkan hati dan semangatku
Tabahkan aku menghadapi segala cubaanMu
Jadikanlah aku isteri yang disenangi suami
Bukakanlah hatiku untuk menghayati agamaMu
Bimbinglah aku menjadi isteri Soleha
Hanya padaMu Ya Allah ku pohon segala harapan
Kerana aku pasrah dengan dugaanMu
Kerana aku sedar hinanya aku
Kerana aku insan lemah yg kerap keliru
Kerana aku leka dengan keindahan duniamu
Kerana kurang kesabaran ku menghadapi cabaranMu
Kerana pendek akal ku mengharungi ujianMu
Ya Allah Ya Tuhanku...
Aku hanya ingin menjadi isteri yang dirahmati
Isteri yang dikasihi
Isteri yang soleha
Isteri yang sentiasa dihati suami
Amin, amin Ya Rabbal 'Alamin

The Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him) said: " The Muslim is the person whose tongue and hand do not harm others. And the believer is he, whom others trust, about their blood and wealth."
He further said: "Verily ALLAH ordered me to keep relations with those that cut me off, to forgive the one who does injustice with me, and to give to those who withold from me. "
The Qur'an states: "Those who repress anger, and who pardon men; verily, ALLAH loves the good-doers." [Ali 'Imran: 134]
These blessed people suck out malice from others with sincerity, forgiveness, and gentleness. They forget evil that was enacted upon them and preserve the memory of kindness received. Biting, harsh words may be aimed at them, but such words pass by their ears without entering and continue on their path without ever returning. They are in a state of calmness. People in general, are safe from suffering any harm at their hands.

i wonder how am i going to achieve His redha when i'm not fully redha to all of His ketetapan???
haiz, dream on lah ju...hmm but i guess i will still dream on...at least is better than nothing.
wasted $$ on cab fares despite the tight budget coz i was feeling lembik and dun feel like being in super crowded trains. in the rush, i forgot to bring the Quran along for tonite's lesson. but instead my hand grabbed the small ruqyah booklet on the bedstand.
the amazing thing was as i sat in the cab feeling hopeless with myself, after finishing a packet of pokka green tea to sooth the throat, i manage to 'force' myself to take out the ruqyah booklet out of my handbag...and just as a i recited the Al-Fateha in my heart.... i felt a certain soothing coolness in the heart,...the 'burnout' feeling is now gone at the moment. Alhamdulillah.
at times i felt i don't deserve the kindness Allah showers on me...but i need Him..who else can i run to and who else understands me best except Him.
i dunno if i'll pull thru the tests of this world and die in His redha ...only Allah knows....and that is scary. super scary.
P.S. sidetrack - i read that the cleaner who was mauled to death by the tigers recently actually manage to utter the kalimah syahadah before his death.

hv always loved this picture of Chichi. it was another side of her besides her usual mischevious self. the greatness of Allah's words, even an animal felt the effect. nowadays she loves to golek2 on the sejadah and refuse to budge off unless she is carried away. but most of the time she behaves herself and sits quietly on the dressingtable or the bed. hehehe
ujian datang dalam pelbagai bentuk dan rupa.
ujian datang dan ujian pergi.
ujian itu tanda ingatan Allah kepada hambaNya :'(
walaupun kamu gagal dalam ujian itu, redha dan usah berputus harap pada Yang Satu.
for the One who allowed the 'fall' to happen is the only One who can save you.
afterall has He not saved you countless of times from destruction...from the clutches of syaitan..
and remember His Mercy overcomes His Wrath :'(
hold on tight to it...pada tali Allah.
She could feel it coming yet again
She wished she could run and hide
From the craziness of it all
But there is no escape except to ride it through
A sense of worthlessness and failure clouds her again
As she struggles to climb out from the traps of the devil
She reminds herself repeatedly, its just a matter of time
Before the dark clouds all goes away...
Patience and prayer as her pillar of strength
Surrendering to her Creator she must do
Hoping to endure His trials with an open heart
For attaining His pleasure is her ultimate goal
Cry and be sorry momentarily if she must
But trusting in Him, insya Allah she will not stop...
Resigned to her Master who knows whats best for her
And her heart starts to smile again...

at times its just...................................
makes me all the more yearn to "detach" from this crazy world.
till next time...gOOd evening and gOOdnite.
"The contemplative believer who remembers God will begin to enjoy solitude and places of seclusion where voices and movements are hushed…
There he will find strength of heart and will, and he will no longer be worried or depressed…
Then he will begin to taste the sweetness of worship, of which he cannot have enough.
In it, he will find abundance of pleasure and comfort - more than what he used to find in diversion and play, or in the satisfaction of wordly desires…
When he experiences this state, many of the wordly concerns will disappear, as he is in a completely different world from the rest of humanity."
-Ibn Al Qayyim, Madaarij As_Salikeen
======================
a good du'a....
"O Allah!
I take refuge with you
from appearing to the public
to be better than I am
while my inner mind
is repulsive to You
for what it conceals,
preventing the people
from lamenting over me
for all that You know of me,
for I would be showing the people
a fine exterior
while informing You
of the evil of my actions
drawing near to mortals
while distancing myself
from Your favour."
- Ali bin Abi Talib
