As al jawaher sings,





Duhai insan yang mulia,
ingatlah kepadaNya
yang telah memberimu
nikmat di dunia

Apakah engkau sedar
pemberianNya itu
penuh mengandung makna
tidak terkira

Andainya kau mengerti
bersyukurlah kau sayang
kerana hidup ini
sekelip mata

berubahlah semua
seperti kehendakNya
cuma amal dan soleh
melindungimu...

ingatlah rakan, ingatlah sayang
kudratnya Tuhan
Maha Segala
sucikanlah jiwamu
dengan amal dan taqwa
tanpa rasa curiga kepadaNya jua

Tuhan Pengasih
Tuhan Penyayang
Pohonlah kepadaNya
Sujud padaNya



the song that was aired over and over. Im loving the song. It made me realize how great Allah's nikmats are. Just sometimes we are just too ignorant to realize.. and worse, to be grateful.

The tazkirah tonite was also about nikmat Tuhan and it hits me hard.

kadangkala kita sedih dgn kesempitan hidup yg kita lalui tetapi kita lupa dgn kesenagan lain yg diberi Tuhan.

The ustaz was telling us about a lady who came to him complaining. She was utterly sad and depressed, with the fact that her relationship with her husband was not very loving and that he rarely even smile to her. And she was even more sad that her doa for a better relationship was never answered.

And so the ustaz tried to remind her about OTHER things that she has. She has a job, and she's happy with her job. That is one nikmah.
She has kids. And she's very close with them. Thats another nikmah.

To conclude the story, sometimes Allah might not give what we ask for, but He will give something else which sometimes are much better or something we didnt even think of.

Nikmat Tuhan begitu luas. SubhanaLLah.
It made me think that sometimes I complain I dont have this and that, but yet Im always full of something else. I should stop and look around me.

But that, does not mean we should stop asking from God. For Allah Himself wants us to seek from Him.


“Dan Tuhanmu berfirman: "Berdoalah kepada-Ku, niscaya akan Kuperkenankan bagimu. Sesungguhnya orang-orang yang menyombongkan diri dari menyembah-Ku akan masuk neraka Jahannam dalam keadaan hina dina”.” (Surah al-Mu’min, 40: 60)


With that, he reminded us about waktu mustajab. Means, waktu yg doa2 akan dikabulkan.
Its at night. Late at night. What more nights of Ramadhan. And what more the nights of last 10 days of Ramadhan. That is why we are encouraged to Qiyam. Qiyaamullail.

Rasulullah SAW bersabda:
“Rabb (Tuhan) kita turun di setiap malam ke langit yang terendah, yaitu saat sepertiga malam terakhir, maka Dia berfirman : Siapa yang berdoa kepadaKu maka Aku kabulkan, siapa yang meminta kepadaKu maka Aku berikan kepadanya, dan siapa yang meminta ampun kepadaKu maka Aku ampunkan untuknya”. (HR. Al-Bukhari no. 1145, 6321 dan Muslim no. 758).



InsyaAllah. Ameen.
