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.
Jazz, a friend of mine put this on her status on Friday…
• "Dan antara tanda-tanda yang membuktikan kekuasaan-Nya dan rahmat-Nya bahawa Dia menciptakan untuk kamu (wahai kaum lelaki) isteri-isteri daripada jenis kamu sendiri, supaya kamu BERSENANG HATI dan hidup MESRA dengannya, dan dijadikan di antara kamu (suami isteri) perasaan KASIH SAYANG dan BELAS KASIHAN." ([B]Surah Ar-Rum, 21[/B])

This was my comment:
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... :)
