Lesson Behind The Thomas Cup

Assalamualaikum wbt

Dari Sahih Muslim :

Nabi SAW bersabda "berusahalah untuk duniamu seolah-olah kamu akan hidup selama-lamanya dan berusahalah untuk akhiratmu seolah-olah kamu akan mati esok hari"

Apa yang ingin saya kongsi bersama bukanlah satu kisah kecewa mahupun hampa..

hampa dan kecewa ke atas apa?

Semua mampu mengagak, kekalahan Malaysia kepada China di separuh akhir...for those Malaysian yang penuh semangat datang ke Bukit Jalil, buat kain rentang and sepanduk..jasa dan semangat mereka ini harus dipuji..semangat yang bukan calang-calang..

Hampa memang hampa, bila pulang dengan berita kekalahan, sangat menyakitkan jiwa ditambah raga...namun hakikat yang Allah tunjukkan juga sangat jelas bagi sesiapa yang refleks dan berfikir..

Satu petang, Allah gerakkan hati dan akal saya untuk berfikir dan merenung akan satu hakikat :

"sekurang-kurangnya  kalah nya pasukan Malaysia adalah bersandarkan perjuangan, mereka sudah berjuang untuk negara, ask yourself, apa yang saya buat untuk negara? at least Chong wei and the others team mate semua dah buat semampu mungkin untuk berjuang demi negara...saya..kita...apa yang kita buat????

Therefore stop blaming others?

yes stop blaming this Malaysian team

stop blaming Chong Wei by saying him main tak serius, first double main-main and whatever..

at least they did something,

ask yourself?

apa yang kita buat?

and when,

we had find what to do..

it is a must!

to make sure we did that with our best ability!

untuk diri sendiri

untuk Islam dan

untuk negara

Ikhlas

The Day of Siti Hajar's

Assalamualaikum wbt

Siti Hajar,

A friend which i met 4 years back then.. the first day of knowing her was like any other normal day that i had been through before..we are both 22 years of age. Never had imagine that this friend of mine will someday become a wife of  someone..

Yes..

Had you notice her wedding picture? I must say that..it was great..really great.

Alhamdulillah everything ran smoothly according to plan..although my absence to her day's never going to change even a thing..but my pray will always be with you my dear Hajar..

May you become the ice that melt his anger

May you become the fire that burn his spirit when all of the other fires gone

May you become the rainbows that lite up his days

May you become the wind that calm his soul

May you become the sweets and the salts that pave his life 

and May you grow old together till the day when a soul being ripped away from the body of own.

May Allah bless your marriage

InsyaAllah..

Amin Ya Rabb Al Amin

 

Yours faithfully,

Nurul Damia

The Reason Behind "Sepi Tanpa Berita"

Assalamualaikum wbt

Cuba kira sekarang pakai apa-apa jenis method pun..dah berapa lama Nurul Damia ni tak update blog?
lama...almost 2 month!

Soalan nye mudah...ada orang tanya
"damia, kenapa tak update blog?"
"ko sibuk sangat ke?"
"buat ape cuti?"
"lama tak nampak ko?"

Nak jawab ape Damia...cepat fikir!
gelak dulu, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
mmmm jawapan nye mudah, ringkas and padat

Hilang idea!

bukan tak ada masa, tapi banyak masa, banyak lagi tanggungjawab..sibuk memang sibuk tapi still ada ruang untuk update blog sebenarnya..but bila kita hilang idea, then that is the reason why blog ini dull without latest news and stories yang dapat dikongsi bersama manusia sekalian alam..

Apa yang membuatkan Nurul Damia muncul semula?

muncul balik dalam blog tak macam kemunculan artis dalam dunia hiburan...artis bila muncul balik, akan ada special teaser comeback! but bila orang biasa macam saya nak muncul semula..jangan perasan la ada teaser kan..kalo nak buat sendiri! takda teaser tapi ada reason..

Kenapa Damia?

ada satu hari saya terdengar orang berborak..bla..bla..bla..bla.. sehingga la ke satu point si polan A bagi nasihat pada si polan B..nasihat A ringkas..memang ringkas sampai saya yang mencuri dengar pun terfikir-fikir sampai ke rumah.

"dakwah tak ada penghujung !"

ringkas kan nasihat si polan A, dan dari situ saya sedar akan penting nya memberi nasihat..dan yang paling penting spread the words of Islam di mana-mana sahaja menggunakan apa jua jenis medium selagi kita mampu.

ada kelebihan menggunakan internet,then jom kita maksimum kan penggunaan nye bukan sahaja dgn visiting website-website tak berilmu, tapi lawat juga website yg dapat menambah ilmu di dada dan kepala, then lets share with the others..simple method yang semua orang boleh fikir tapi kadang-kadang tak tercapai di akal.

bak kata ustaz Hasrizal
"hidup untuk memberi"

sekian
selamat beramal =)

When What Is Good, Is Not Good Enough

Assalmualaikum..
dear friends and followers..
Since we are at the youngest age of our life, the age where we become so maniac on sweets and chocolates. We know how to have for at least a dream on something.

At this youngest age we dreamed to be somebody someday,
we dreamed to be at some place someday,
we dreamed to see someone in our future,
we dreamed to have a big houses and big cars,
we dreamed to become richer so that we can buy anything that we like,
we dreamed to grow up and become an adult,
we dreamed to become someone with power,
we dreamed to meet power rangers live!
and we even dreamed to become a famous superstars,

when we think back at all this time that had passes by..we might laugh sometimes..because of all of these craziest dreamed that we ever vow to ourself..
seem so childish
delinquent
and shaky...

we are what we used to be 10 years before today...
making a dream like we used to think that it is what is good for us...
but the truth,
we never know what's beyond it

having a dream you guys, making our life meaningful. I still remember when i was in primary school, i dreamed to enter boarding school just to avoid myself from people who used to underestimate my ability, looking me as someone useless,an ordinary and lame..

but what i wish is not what i gained in the end..due to my "the so so" result in my UPSR
i end up entering the private school, living far away from pampered home and tasty food, it was good then.. i did learn lots of things..

i must said that i grew up well in this school..so many things i had been through it somehow taught me to be independent type of person.

see friends,
sometime what we think is always good to us are not likely good enough,
Allah know best..
be ambitious with what we dreamed for, but never forget to place tawakal above all the matters..
after all we are only human, slave and khalifah..
and pray is the weapon of us..

do remember dear friends and followers
Not everything of what we think is good, is good enough..

See Grandpa, It Is Useless !!

An old American Muslim lived on a farm in the mountains of eastern Kentucky with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his Quraan. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could. One day the grandson asked, 

"Grandpa! I try to read the Qur'an just like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the Qur'an do?"

The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied,

"Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water."

The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said,

"You'll have to move a little faster next time," and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again.

This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned home. Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket instead.

The old man said, "I don't want a bucket of water, I want a basket of water. You're just not trying hard enough," and he went out the door to watch the boy try again. At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would leak out before he got back to the house. 

The boy again dipped the basket into river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather the basket was again empty. Out of breathe, he said, "See Grandpa, it's useless!" 


"So you think it is useless?" The old man said, "Look at the basket." The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean, inside and out. 

"Son, that's what happens when you read the Qur'an. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you will be changed, inside and out. That is the work of Allah in our lives." 

Lesson From A Little Boy

This is a story that I received from a friend. A very short yet inspiring story. Allah's Hidayah is always there, around us. It comes in all sorts of forms. It's either we are aware of it or we simply take advantage on it.


The park bench was deserted as I sat down to read beneath the long, straggly branches of an old willow tree. Disillusioned by life with good reason to frown, for the world was intent on dragging me down. 

And if that weren’t enough to ruin my day, a young boy out of breath approached me, all tired from play. 
He stood right before me with his head tilted down and said with great excitement, “Look what I found!” 
In his hand was a flower, and what a pitiful sight, with it’s petals all worn, not enough rain, or too little light. Wanting him to take his dead flower and go off to play, I faked a small smile and then shifted away. But instead of retreating he sat next to my side and placed the flower to his nose and declared with overacted surprise, “It sure smells pretty and it’s beautiful, too. That’s why I picked it; here it’s for you.” 

The weed before me was dying or dead. Not vibrant of colors, orange, yellow or red. But I knew I must take it, or he might never leave. So I reached for the flower, and replied,“Just what I need.” But instead of him placing the flower in my hand, he held it mid-air without reason or plan. It was then that I noticed for the very first time that weed-toting boy could not see: he was blind. 

I heard my voice quiver, tears shone like the sun as I thanked him for picking the very best one. You’re welcome, he smiled, and then ran off to play, unaware of the impact he’d had on my day. I sat there and wondered how he managed to see a self-pitying woman beneath an old willow tree. How did he know of my self-indulged plight? 

Perhaps from his heart, he’d been blessed with true sight. Through the eyes of a blind child, at last I could see the problem was not with the world; the problem was me. And for all of those times I myself had been blind, I vowed to see the beauty in life, and appreciate every second that’s mine. And then I held that wilted flower up to my nose and breathed in the fragrance of a beautiful rose. And smiled as I watched that young boy, another weed in his hand about to change the life of an unsuspecting old man.


Alhamdulillah
Thank you Allah

Cinta Yang Agung

Allah SWT berfirman:

"Sesiapa yang memusuhi waliKu, maka seolah-olah dia sudah berani mengisytiharkan perang denganKu.
Tidaklah seorang hambaKu bertaqarrub (mendekatkan diri) kepadaKu dengan sesuatu yang paling Aku cintai selain daripada kewajipan-kewajipan yang telah Aku wajibkan kepadanya, dan hambaKu itu sentiasa mendekatkan diri kepadaKu dengan ibadah-ibadah sunnah, sehingga aku mencintainya. Apabila Aku sudah mencintainya, maka Aku akan menjadi pendengarannya yang ia mendengar dengannya. Aku menjadi penglihatan yang ia melihat dengannya. Aku menjadi tangannya yang ia memukul dengannya dan menjadi kakinya yang ia berjalan dengannya. Apabila ia meminta kepadaKu, nescaya Aku akan mengabulkannya dan apabila ia memohon perlindungan kepadaKu, nescaya Aku akan melindunginya."

(Hadith Qudsi-Al Bukhari, no.6502)
