the valley of patience

the valley of patience.

is where Joseph rejected the offer of Zulaikha in the house of al-Aziz

Joseph : a very handsome guy, young and of  perfect qualities.

Zulaikha : a very beautiful woman, wealthy and of high social standing. *bagaimanapun, beliau adalah isteri kpd al-Aziz... *

.

let's say this is Zulaikha..

what actually happened?

one day, Zulaikha tried to take Joseph to herself and she offered herself to him. this she did because of her strong love to Joseph due to his good looks, good character and intelligence.

Zulaikha had the 'intention' to Joseph and so he did. ( that's normal because all man are born with hawa nafsu.) but what made this story abnormal is that how Joseph managed to fight against his lust and turned himself to Allah praying to make Zulaikha's temptation ineffective. it was granted by God!

why Joseph refused to turn to Zulaikha?

he did this, although he knew no one was there watching them, because of his fear to Allah and he really hoped for His rewards and mercy. Joseph preferred to be imprisoned over the offer made by the wife of al-Aziz.

Rasulullah SAW had once said : "There are seven groups who will be given shade by Allah at a time when there will be no shade except His shade (on the Day of Judgment):...[one of which is:], someone who was invited (for illegal sexual intercourse) by a beautiful and prominent woman, but he replied, 'I fear Allah.'"

here's a song entitled  " VALLEY " by Kareem Salama.

see how each and everyone of us is tested by Allah the same as Joseph was.

and ask ourselves 'have we ever turned to god everytime we are tested? if dont, then to whom we turned to?'

yes, kita sudah CUKUP UMUR...

.............tetapi..........

adakah kita sudah CUKUP MUSLIM?? 

iaitu muslim pada nama juga karakter.
INSYA ALLAH!

sandwiches makeover!

Last Friday morning, Che Uda asked me to go to her school as they were having a friendly camp there, between the local students and the Siamese. what impressed me is the uniform that the Siamese students were wearing actually. they got green maxi skirts with a green blouse and a beige necktie for the females which made it looked like a curtain for me. a beautiful and neat curtain.

so Che Uda had to handle the sandwiches makeover competition. she divided the students into groups and some bread, tomato, chili, salt, mayonaise, cucumber n daun pandan were given to each goups. they have to use the given materials to decorate their sandwiches as creative as possible.

here is the picture of sandwich from the 1st prize winner.. * ce tengok creative x creative budak2 ni.... *
i thought the concept here is Secret Garden as they have red flowers and green leaves there. betol ke???

thank God that the group i was helping had shockingly got the 4th prize. ^___________^
if u could see below that the sandwiches were wrapped with daun pandan bcz we actually wanted to portray the concept of Tupperware..but unfortunately it didn't look like Tupperware much!

and here i also got the chance to learn how to make a red rose from a tomato.
hanya kopek kulit tomato tu tanpa putus and pusing2 sikit, maka u will get like shown below..  how lovely it is, jz like the real one!

 

i'm so glad that God brought me there. although its quite boring to just sitting and staring at the students running in front of me as they got urged by the trainer, but at least i learnt one new thing and create one new experience in life. ALHAMDULILLAH...

.: the first trial :.

on friday, 14 Oct 2011, i was asked by Kak Zatirunnadah to deliver a short tazkirah magrib in front of nursing students at Kolej Insaniah,USM. This is my 1st time ever to deliver a speech to people of older age. I was quite reluctant to accept this offer at first but yea, It is a very miraculous thing that i finally accept that offer! coz i believe that everyone has their own FIRST TIMES..

actually, I started doing this kind of part time job since my third sem in CFS PJ as i was asked by Aini to be one of the facilitators for the study circles cunducted by LTD ( Leadership n Training Dept ).  No, Aini didnt actually ask me, she FORCED me into this, like she always did..

It might be a bit difficult at first when you just start doing this job, but insyAllah u'll finally manage to muster all the courage n confidence needed after going through 2-3 trials of giving out speeches.. As promised by Allah in His words to help those who are in the path of Allah.

so at the first place, my topic for this Friday was supposed to be ABU HURAIRAH AND THE AYATUL KURSI. but at the middle of the speech i jz realised that the thing i was talking about is the TYPES OF SATANs actually, not Abu Hurairah anymore. although i was like losing the track, but it went all right. Alhamdulilah. Satan? who are they? its quite important to know them so that we can be aware of their whispers.. * x kenal maka x waspada kan...??? *

Types of Satans :

they might look like this!

 1. ZALITTUN : they are in the pasar or shopping complex. whispering at our ears to spend more than needed.
2. WATHIIN : their targets are those who are tested by Allah with calamities, to have bad thought on Him.
3. A'AWAN : their targets are the rulers and leaders, to be so proud and forget about their responsibilities.
4. HAFFAF : their targets are the drinkers and they are always at the night clubs and every place place selling alcohol.
5. MURRAH : their targets are those who like musics and entertainment, for not to remember Allah.
6. MASUUD : they are at our tounges, to lead us badmouthing others at every chance.
7. DAASIM : they are at the door of our houses. when we enter our house without salam, they get into our houses too, trying to destroy the family bondage.
8. WALAHAN : they are together with us when we start to perform our daily prayers, trying to lead our mind astray from remembering Allah and leave us in 'was-was'.
9. LAKHUUS : they befriend with Majusi.

* the above highlighted terms are the names of satans whom i think are very close to us...
