Di Syawal yang indah itu. . .
Time flies. . .
Everybody says that. When it is gone. . .it will never return. Alhamdulillah by the 29th Syawal, my hubby and I managed to finish our 6-day-fast. History repeats itself for we were repeating what had happened to last year’s 6-day-fast. Put what had happened behind and pray for the next Syawal so that we can do the 6-day-fast again. . .
This Syawal is the eid celebration without the children. Last year, Kakak and Adik were still with us and I met Iman, Anis, Iskandar, Irah and Ica at Mummy’s house. This year just the two of us. InsyaAllah, I pray for another Ramadhan and another Syawal to celebrate with the children. . . All the ten of them. . .hmmm or 11….hehehe

Alhamdulillah. . .Syawal is indeed the month of winnings.
We celebrated Hari Raya Aidilfitri in Batu Gajah. Did the Aidil Fitri prayers in Batu Gajah. Visited relatives in Teluk Intan and Parit.
Papa, Mummy and Mok came over to visit me and Riza in Batu Gajah. The trip was well-worth as we managed to enjoy each other’s company. We went to Lumut, Pasar Minggu Batu Gajah where Papa, Mummy and Mok did some shopping.
Managed to get Papa, Mummy and Mok stayed for two nights and they left for Seremban on Monday morning. … we met again on the weekend when I accompanied Riza to the Annual Meeting of PERKIM in Seremban on the 24th of September. Alhamdulillah. . . it’s the month of winnings….. I love you all Tn Hj Wan Ismail bin Wan Ab Rahman, Pn. Hjh Zuriah bte Hussein and Che Yah bte Salleh.

Andai Ini Ramadhan yang Terakhir…..
I have seen people trying to be sentimental over the above statement…. To me, there is not so much to be sentimental about….
Living life to the fullest ( I am hanging to this all my life ) and living the day by day ( Riza Ahmad’s teaching) have given me the strength to continue life without worries. There were worries then but after one year with Riza Ahmad I have learned to be Redha and living day by day by doing the best you can… as for example in a life of a muslim, one has to fulfill his responsibility to his Creator that is to pray 5 times. Doing it diligently, one shouldn’t be worried anymore…you have performed your duties why worry of the Pahala or whether you are doing it enough…Pahala is from Allah, we shouldn’t be questioning. Kalau ada, dapatlah…kalau Allah tak mahu bagi nasiblah…apa pun sembahyanglah tanpa ada syarat. Kita solat kerana kita difardhukan untuk solat sebagai pernyataan kepatuhan kita kepada pencipta kita Allah Subhanawataa’la.
When we keep track of our solat, solat sebagaimana yg disyariatkan maka tiada perlu berasa bimbang ttg hal solat itu lagi. InsyaAllah solat kita diterima.
Then, we continue our day at work or at studies. At work as a teacher or a lecturer or a student or anything. We should know why we work everyday, is it to get the salary every end of the month or sometimes bonus??? Or allowances for students. If your reason would be purely for money and money shall you get. One should work or study because we have to do good to this earth and Allah will Redha with you. InsyaAllah, Allah’s Blessings( Redha) is there when you fulfill all you responsibility for the day, say you have 4 hours of class so you prepare materials for it, go to class and teach and then clock out. Having to do that you are fulfilling the responsibility towards yr profession which can be made rich by putting in good values such as come to work on time, reach to class on time and finish the class at the expected time. There are of course some give and take in the matter of time but make sure we follow the schedule. The practice is there in our daily solat, we can perform Zohor when it reaches midday, no less, but we are given a duration of time convenient to us to perform it. Yes, we are strongly suggested to perform the solat promptly after the azan, but if you are working at that time and leaving your work may harm or do some kind of damage or loss, one can pray any time in the period given. Starting class punctually is a good habit and a good habit will be carried far, our students will follow the value of being punctual, then that becomes “ilmu yang dimanafaatkan” …rewards for it will never stop. This is one of the example…many more can be done.
Is that all? Doing the best for yourself, doing the best for your job…and your day will be complete? This life is not only for ourselves or our family…there are also other people…life is not going to be complete until you show your care and help others around you.
I am going to stop at this point.
Andai ini ramadhan yang terakhir, maka aku redha akan ketentuanMu Y Allah. Aku telah berusaha untuk menjadi seorang muslim sejajar dengan apa yang disyariatkan. Therefore, if this is going to be the last ramadhan , let it be for I have done the best I can.

Doing life the second time…
I don’t know about others, but I consider myself as being given another chance to do life the second time. My marriage to Mohammad Riza bin Ahmad Hambadley is the chance of doing life the second time.
In life, as Muslim’s, we have the Quran and As-Sunnah as guidelines. In a marriage, the husband will lead the wife to the path of Allah. In doing so, the husband has to have a good knowledge of Islam so that he can guide his wife and later his children. A Muslim must abide by the 5 pillars of being a Muslim. He has to recite the Syahadah, pray 5 times a day, fasting in the month of Ramadhan, pay Zakat and go to Hajj.
Alhamdulillah, in this second chance, I am able to pray five times a day lead by my husband. He will always invite me to perform prayers with him. In the life before, this has not happened. It is a very rare occasion that I completed the 5 times a day prayers. In this second chance of life I have stopped by at more mosques than I did in my 15 years of previous marriage. I have gone to all the prayers places available at the shopping complexes that I gone to, previously, I have never been there as I have never performed prayers when I am out shopping. Thank You Allah.
Since 15th of October 2010, my husband recites “Yassin” everyday without fail. I have breaks of course when I have to take the monthly off duties… I can recite Yassin very well now, previously, I will read when I have time…alone…
Last Ramadhan, I was able to do the 6 days of fasting in Syawal, both of us did. For the first time in my life, I completed the 6-day-fast in Syawal. I am not embarrassed to let people know this as I believe there would be others who were also like me or still like me then. I mean, the basics of being a Muslim are not being practiced well. My students in IPG KPI would not be in the group of people I referred to as almost all of them went to School for the Muslims and they are all well versed in the matter of Islam.
My parents taught me well. They taught me how to pray, sent me to learn to recite the Quran. Papa always called me and my siblings to pray together with him. My father is a good leader. My mummy is a good wife and a good mum.
The leader of my previous marriage failed to guide me to the right path.
I am going to take this second chance to the fullest.

Guidelines are given to us in all aspects of life. One can always stop being bad and be good for each other, it’s a choice. If it didn’t work that way, one can start all over again... :)
