Anakanda ...

Assalamualaikum wbt ...

di tengah malam ... dalam sunyi sendiri anakanda mengingati diri ini ... bertanya khabar ... menyata rindu ... mencatat rasa ...

~

anakanda ... acik faham ...

that you think your life is getting more challenging ... you have your own ambitions to achieve be it as a muslim, daughter, student ... family and friends to care ... 

and the community to serve insyaAllah ... in the end you think your life is about giving ... 

rarely you have time for your own ... but you do hope that you can still remember me in your prayers and that we can still meet in Jannah insyaAllah ...

~

Aameen ... for your doa ... Aameen

Anakanda ...

yes ... masa yang sedikit ... masa yang terhad ... tetapi jangan lupa ... Allah SWT can easily extend the value of time for us such that ... a moment of good deed may have the value of 100 years of life ...

so my child ... despair not ... 

for Allah SWT is Most Gracious in His Favours for us ...

with much love and affection ...

 Acik

anakanda ... lihat ...

the sky and its white clouds ... the limit of time
the islands and their lush greens ... your aspirations
the blue sea ... your challenges
 the beach and its white sand ... upon which you are standing
and the white foams dancing in ... your commitments

Asslamualaikum wbt ...

AlhamduLillah syukur ... before anything else sambung Surah Ar-Rahmaan ... insyaAllah

 

(7) And the Firmament has He raised high, and He has set up the Balance (of Justice),

(8) In order that ye may not transgress (due) balance.

AlhamduLillah syukur ... hari ini immediately after solat subuh terus keluar menuju KLIA ... takut takut tak sempat jumpa anak anak yang must check in by 8.00am ... tak breakfast pun ... just a mug of fresh milk and tea shared with suami ...

kalau saya ikut LEKAS, PLUS onto ELITE way je ... but suami suka LEKAS then NILAI-SEPANG ... dulu selalu sesat so tak suka sangat route ni ... but today bukan nak catch our own flight kita tak stress sangat so ikut je perlahan lahan route tu ... suami said it is shorter by 20km ... ye ke tak sure pula ni ...

so hari ni macam dah confident sikit route ni ... boleh dibiasakan insyaAllah ... except for LEKAS toll lain pun tak ada ... jalan pun smooth je ... mungkin sebab pagi minggu ...

sampai KLIA slightly before 7:30am ... alhamduLillah ... jumpa anak anak yang sibuk digambari for news piece most probably ...

saya pun mengambil kesempatan ...

ini lah anak anak saya ...

5 of them from the entire group of 8 that have been offered placements in various UK universities ... 4 for Masters and 1 Bachelor level ...

anak anak saya ni 2 dari NS masyarakat Temuan, 2 dari Perak masayarakat Semai, 1 dari Johor masyarakat Jakun ... tahniah to them all!

peluk cium yang girls nye je ye ... wishing them all the best and i remembered the last pesan of my Ustaz Dato' Prof Dr Wan Hussein Azmi yang mengajar kami Tafseer Al-Quran di Brunei ... when i went to pay my respect to him and Datin Ustazah before leaving for UK ... he wished me all the best and said jangan tinggal solat ... saya pun pesan begitu pada anak anak ... yang Muslim said InsyaAllah ... yang bukan Muslim jawab dia tak (meaning tak solat) sambil senyum ... 

hidayah hanya dari Allah SWT insyaAllah ... mudahan Allah SWT kurniakan mereka semua kejayaan di dunia dan akhirat ...Aameen ...

after meeting the officers in charge ... AlhamduLillah ... kami pun berlalu ...

~

next stop ... apa lagi nak cari makan pula ... tadi tak breakfast ... so saya pun fikir fikir the best place for breakfast ... alhamduLillah teringat tempat ni ... selalu kami rakan rakan pelajar bawa prof prof kami break kat sini when they came to deliver lectures off campus ... maka saya ajak suami ke situ ... saya teringin nak makan nasi lemak nyaman nya ... suami tak pernah lagi ke sana ... so an opportunity to show him the place as well ... normally saya tak teringat tempat ni pun ...

hari ni ada rasa nak memfoto sendiri ... so ini tempatnya ...

Medan Selera Penghulu Cantik ... tidaklah saya tahu kenapa namanya begitu ...

tempatnya tersembunyi ... off the Seremban Kuala Pilah main road ... kalau menuju Seremban just after one sees CentrePoint there's a traffic light ... turn left oops -right - on the next exit ... follow through the inner road ... it won't be long beefore one sees the signboard ...

hmm apa yang sedap ... quite a selection but i think the mee jawas (plural because ada few offerings) are favourites of customers ... saya makan nasi lemak di gerai no 7 ... nasi lemak kukus ada pelbagai sambal so boleh customise ... minta extra timun ... nescafe O kaw kurang manis ...

nak tunjuk gambar nasi lemak sedap ni tak ada ... maaflah ... sebab part ambil gambar makan ni saya malu sikit hehe ...

so contoh dari gugle je ...

 taklah sama macam di penghulu cantik tu but boleh lah ye ... image source ... here

 lepas makan nampak pula adik gerai sebelah bawa tray with a never before seen item ... bila tanya nama nya adik tu jawab ... roti santai ... nama hidangan bukan nama adik tu hehe ... next boleh cuba insyaALLAH ... di gerai no 8 ...

AlhamduLillah syukur ... for everything ...

sambung di sini ...
AlhamduLillah onto Hadith No 17 of 40 Hadith compiled by Imam Al-Nawawi rahimahuLLAH ...

 Hadith No 17: Prescription of Ihsan

On the authority of Abu Ya'laa Shaddad bin Aws (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Messenger of Allah(peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) said:

"Verily Allah has prescribed Ihsan (proficiency, perfection) in all things. So if you kill then kill well; and if you slaughter, then slaughter well. Let each one of you sharpen his blade and let him spare suffering to the animal he slaughters."

Sweet memory ...

Assalamualaikum wbt ...

is like corals in the deep sea ... you leave it ... grow it will ... and a gesture in a distant past becomes a glow in the present ...

this is how i felt about something beautiful that happened yesterday ... 

just before iftar i received a message ...

Anak: Assalamualaikum acik :-) Alhamdulillah i received the news that i passed my professional exam, d grades are not yet announced. i think i may not have d chance 2 further research in harvard as 4 d cost & lack in qualifications. i still believe in doing research locally iA for the next 1 year. do pray for me :)

Acik: Walaikumussalam wbt dear T... AlhamduLillah syukur banyak for your achievement. Allah SWT eases your path ameen. About Harvard not to worry. Banyak paths insyaAllah to go there. Maybe not now. My doa for you :) selamat berbuka. Allah SWT terima ibadah kita mudahan insyaAllah ameen.

Then after iftar i received another message, just before 'isyak ...

Anak: Acik, i have a sensitive question. Do you think er .. i may get good husband?

(a very very big smile as i read that ... i ve the feeling that she purposely asked to trigger that smile precisely ... but never has anyone asked me such a sweet question ...)

Acik: hehehe. Simple dear. Mohon pada Allah SWT for suami yang baik. Yang sabar dengan perangai kita yang kadang kadang kurang arif. InsyaAllah InsyaAllah. Acik doakan yang baik untuk T... Ameen. Ingat Acik dalam doa T... ye. :) nak solat now. Esok sambung insyaAllah.

Anak: Jazakillah acik. ameen :) Insyaallah ingat acik dalam doa :)

 the anak, though not mine, is like that beautiful fish swimming among the glowing corals ... calm and calming ... SubhanAllah ... AlhamduLillah ... May Allah SWT keep her safe and baik fiddunya wal akhirah ameen ...

update kecik ...

hmmm i ve understood ... her question was a reaction to the flying fox's news about a marriage going through the haze ... the challenge facing a doctor wife must have created fear in this future young doctor herself ...
Wahai anak ... May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala protect you against duka nestapa perkahwinan and this life ... and may you light the lives of those who are in pain ... Ameen
