Image
Mati tak bisa untuk kau hindari Tak mungkin bisa engkau lari Ajalmu pasti menghampiri Mati tinggal menunggu saat nanti Kemana kita bisa lari Kita pastikan mengalami Mati Sedutan lirik lagu Ungu - Bila Tiba SubhanaAllah, pagi tadi (Jumaat 11 April 2014), mendapat perkhabaran tentang pulangnya seorang sahabiah, Kak Siti Atikah Abdul Rahim (UTP July08, Petroleum Geoscience) ke pangkuan Ilahi. Arwah dikhabarkan kemalangan dalam perjalanan ke tempat kerja di Simpang Renggam, Johor.  Kondisi kereta Arwah Few things about Kak Atikah: - mantan Masulah Lajnah Tarbiyah dan Kepimpinan RAKAN MASJID UTP - Naqibah usrahku tahun lepas, pertemuan terakhir kami sebelum bercuti 4 bulan dan sebelum Kak Atikah bergraduasi (sekitar September lepas). - cukup lembut, penyayang, tegas pada waktunya, banyak yang kami belajar dari Arwah Kak Tikah  Rasa seperti baru sahaja kita berpisah Kak Tikah, terbayang pelukan erat akak, kata-kata semangat akak, senyuman ikhlas a...

Happiness is

Happiness is.. When you just braved a day full of tasks, 2 tests, classes and you still be able to read a few pages of the Holy Quran When you get to know that your friend is happily married since the last few months :) When you know that your parents gives their blessing on what you're doing When seeing the faces of your adik SG ^^ When having simple chitchats with le roomate, le busy roomate When you're early for your class! When being reminded that no matter how tired and stressed you are, Allah is bigger than ALL my problems! When smelling your dried, crisp laundry When meeting your junior UTPian lil' bro When listening to the rain, pouring on your window after a long drought When knowing that all along this long academic hurdle, you are actually doing SOMETHING for the Deen, Biiznillah When meeting your havoc housemates after a long day When realizing that you're actually halfway in pursuing your Degree  When having your usrah after an exhausting w...

Post Election - Part 1

Image
Bismillahirrahmanirrahim,  It has been quite a while since my last post. That was before the UTP Campus Election. Alhamdulillah, the Voting Day was successfully done last 26th and I hold the 3rd highest ranking votes from the 7 winning candidates, Alhamdulillah. Well, the first few weeks have been a roller-coaster ride, we're stabilizing the cabinet right now. The Campaign Period This is the first time UTP sets a 2-week campaign period. Stamina memang kena kuat lah. Lot's of things to be done, tampal poster, photoshoot, prepare campaign materials etc. My classmates and housemates had been really supportive. The 12 Candidates After quite a stint, this Campus Election seemed to be merrier compared to past elections. From my point of view, this is good, although UTP is an IPTS (Private Uni) that are stereotyped with lack of political awareness, this increase of voting percentage is a good start^^ The Supporters They've been really awesome. Even my fellow ...

A Hectic Sem

Image
Bismillahirrahmanirrahim, Alhamdulillah, it's already week 5 in UTP. Time really flies here, MashaAllah:) January has been a hectic month for me, with the Minggu Aluan Siswa , MMK and whatnot. The last 4-month break had been eally invigorating.  It's good to have buffer period sometimes. Trying my best to start strong and start steady. Al-Insyirah:6:)

Headshot II

Image
“Aku kata “astaghfirullah” tapi hati  masih gemar akan maksiat. Aku kata “wa atubu ilaih” tapi jasad  masih melakukan dosa sama. Aku kata “wa nadimna ya Allah” tapi  kesilapan lalu masih kuulangi. Aku kata “subhanallah” tapi aku tidak mampu menghayatinya. Aku kata “alhamdulillah” tapi aku masih tidak bersyukur dengan kurniaanNya. Aku kata “Allahuakbar” tapi cintaku lebih kepada dunia. Aku kata “ma fi qalbi ghairullah” tapi masih ada ruang di hatiku untuk insan yang tidak halal. Aku kata “aku tak layak ke syurga, tapi aku tak sanggup ke nerakaMu ”  namun aku hidup di dunia seakan-akan aku kuat untuk rasa pedih api neraka. Aku kata aku ingin mendekatiMu, Namun amalku tak seiring dengan kata-kataku. Aku malu dengan sepasang mata kurniaanMu ini, Kerana air mata yang mengalir seakan-akan sia-sia. Aku malu dengan tangan yang sudah lelah mengelap air mata, Kerana tingkah laku pemiliknya ini...

Last Year's Derma CSR Throwback

Image
Life is unpredictable, right? Supposedly yesterday (Thursday), I got a JPJ driving test and a Workshop at SMK Derma (beloved alma mater, ewah) and both were scheduled to be conducted in the morning.  But Alhamdulillah, during our last meeting on Wednesday, we were informed that the programme will be conducted on the evening as per requested by the Principal.  Yup, the duration is getting shorter and many slots are being cut to the bare minimum. Tapi apa guna young brains ni kalau tak diuji? So we discussed and tried to come up with the best solution. So the next day I went to the driving test and Alhamdulillah I passed^^ (last week I flunked the 2nd part XD Around 11 I rushed to school and met my teammates. Around 2.30 petang baru program boleh mula sebab technical delay and dewan masih occupied. I won't comment on the participants, but I really appreciate the efforts done by my teammates. For a team of 10 to handle 40++ participants including technicals, it's qui...

Lose Yourself in Ramadhan

Image
*Inspired by Eminem's "Lose Yourself" If you had one shot, One opportunity, Your one moment, To seize everything you've always wanted, Your moment with Allah, Would you capture it, Or just let it slip? Every moment in Ramadan is equally holy, From dawn to dusk, From morn to midnight. It's like sunlight to the heart, It's like being one with your loved one and never ever wanting to be apart. It's like inhaling the crisp and clean breeze in the morning, It's like a flower nourished by water.  We feel the intense hunger from not eating, But we feel stronger from fasting. We feel sleepy from reading the Quran, But through contemplating its meanings, the holes in our souls are filled with Iman. We are no saints as we have sinned. It's time to through away your old hearts,  Ask Allah for a new one. Seek forgiveness like someone drowning gasping for air, Like a child crying, mourning, asking for his mom, Like a slave burnin...
