Assalamu'alaykum,
Alhamdulillahi rabbal 'alamin. All praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. I am ecstatic to be informed that Husni Mubarak, at last put an end to his near 30-year reign of dictatorship.
Apart from that, I was really engrossed with so many stuffs to do, for the past 2-3 months and indeed am I. Since I joined Al-Aqsa Friends' Society and elected as the head of Publications Bureau, things have changed gradually in terms of my time, studies and money wise. By Allah, I was really confused at times that it left me besotted, knowing nothing to do with the jobs on the waiting list and on the other side of the notes, my assignments, exams lining up in the line tantalizingly while on top of it written name Allah and Da'wah. I began to think is it what I am doing now impeding my Ibadah?.
It does not mean here the responsibility I am carrying now is such a burdensome but it is about how do we manage our time.
I used to say to my friend
" Ya Allah!. How busy I am this semester. Lot of things to do and have no time for it. " I paused and continued.
" We do have time, but maybe, yet to learn on how to manage it wisely through faith in Allah. "
Prophet Muhammad Sallahu'alayhiwasallam was given exactly 24 hours the same as us, but did he ever complain about the time given to him or what bothered him the most was his duty as the messenger of Allah?. Sit properly and think, he carried with him uncountable responsibilities by Allah i.e. to spread Islam and perfect the moral of human behaviour and he managed to do it without any single grumble. Subhan Allah.
Ikhtillat, barriers between men and women and I am feeling like start to lose it and seem could not careless about it. Allah, I am so afraid of all the words I have uttered but end up with no practice at all, not even put into implementation. In spite of sardonic statements I do received once in a while with people around me, honestly speaking I scared if Allah twists and turns my heart thus lead me to the state of perplexity and Shaytan will hold my hand bring me to the path I have never desired to be on. As to enlighten, I have been dealing with quite number of sisters lately and it gives me discomfort about it.
Allah says in the Qur'an,
Not that I am trying to exclude myself from them nor am I demeaning their dignity, but it is really challenging when dealing with non-Mahram sisters. I try my best to avoid it when it has no valid reason to do so. They are the pearls of Islam and if we do not take care of them properly, they might just turn out to be like a thorny cactus. Taking care of them meaning here is to take care ourselves from manifesting improper action that will lead to destruction of human civilization.
Currently in the Masjid sitting with my friend after performing our Subh prayer here in IIUM Masjid. It is beautiful, it breaths in serenity, it is such reviving to wake up early in the morning and have some conversations with Allah Azzwajalla.
