Imagining disappointment.

Back at home and I couldn't be happier.

Today started off pretty good, I'd say. I woke up at 6.15.

Almost everyone was busy completing the history documentary. Students everywhere with their laptops and earphones in, editing, listening to audio. Some were begging the laptop to render the videos faster. For my group, Shaspreet had to render the video for 11 hours. That's almost 12 hours. Well, obviously but I think we've set a record. The moment the video was fully completed, we had a silent moment of joy slash almost crying moment. Aha.

I felt bad towards Miss Ing. She cancelled her holiday to teach us but things happened. I guess we were to noisy and eager to go for lunch. I could see her face reddened for she was holding her angst. Such a patient person, our teacher is. Even then, she was able to said a piece of advice to us. She told us to think positively in any situation. Even if the situation is as bad as it could get, there's always something positive behind it. We just have to seek further and open our minds.

Well.

To Miss Ing, if you're reading this. On behalf of 4K7, we would like to apologize from the deepest of our hearts for being what we were all these times. We're also deeply sorry when there were times we didn't pay full attention during class. Please accept our apology, Miss Ing. We love you to the moon and back! Heeee.

During the 10-11 gap (yep, I call the Friday break period as 10-11 gap), something happened. I considered myself blew up a little bit. I seriously don't know what to do anymore. The thing is, I'm not saying this to people who don't know and understand but I'm saying this matter t the people who know and understand. Who knows what's the importance of fostering good relationship with God in order to achieve success. Yep, to the people who know akhirat is the aim. But I guess, I've failed to convey that. Sometimes, I just think that we're selfish. We ask things from God yet we give Him so little. And we still being arrogant for what we have that He had gave yet, still make so little time for Him. Are we selfish?

Some even asked whether or not the 10-11 gap could be cancelled. That moment, my knees weaken and I sort of could feel my whole body was paralyzed for a split second. We (my exco peeps and I) have prepared a module for us (yes. All of us) so that we could understand this deen better. Imagine how disappointed we could've felt when we hear someone asking the 10-11 gap to be cancelled. That was how we felt. Humans. Imagine how God must have feel. I'd like to ask this again, what does it feels like to disappoint your God?

So.

My father picked me up at 2.30. I slept in the car. It was raining when we entered KL zone. Plus the slow traffic. Believe me, I always get 'car sick' when I'm going back. I also get stressed because of the traffic. KL and the traffic. It's a package. You couldn't say no to one without saying no to the other as well.

As usual, I straight away wash my clothes when I got home and searched for food. Eat while watching TV and only then, I will do other stuff. Yea, I think that is it for today. The rest of my day was just normal.

1: Sorry if my way is not correct. Please kindly say it to me if I've failed to behave like how the Prophet did.

Thursday.

Tomorrow is Friday, I'm going back! :)

Nothing worth of writing for today. Ouh, Yana is skyping with her family and was skyping with her brother. Hah, cute! I don't have a skype account and I don't think I want to make one. Probably not now.

I just noticed something weird. I have lots of work. I mean, assignments. We all do but I couldn't feel the burden, somehow. I don't know what this could possibly means. But I do feel bad for not really helping Shaspreet doing the history documentary. I'm sorry, Shas. I wish I could help more.

Arghh, I really don't have anything to write. You wouldn't want reading my post babbling about assignments and works. The thing is, that's the main priority in most of the students' minds here so.....yea.

Looking forward to tomorrow. I will meet Nana whom I haven't see for almost two months now. She's in a boarding school in Perak and I'm at Bangi. We don't have the same holiday schedule so yea, it's hard to see my sister.

Quran at Fajr by Nouman Ali Khan

A little talk by Nouman Ali Khan.

So, here's a little sharing from me for this morning. Take a few minutes to watch the video and I hope you gain something from it. But in case you don't have time to watch the video, let me point out a few things said by this brother in the video.

Basically, the video revolves around verse 78 of Surah al-Isra'. Translation of the verse:

Establish prayer at the decline of the sun [from its meridian] until the darkness of the night and [also] the Qur'an of dawn. Indeed, the recitation of dawn is ever witnessed. [Surah al-Isra': 78]

Allah has commanded Muslims to establish prayer, which means to pray, during maghrib until very late at night. Thus, we have to pray maghrib prayer and isya' prayer, on time. Then, it is also very much encouraged to wake up early in the morning and do tahajjud. It is mentioned in the verse above, "until the darkness of the night".

Okay, the next part gets interesting. Allah said, "Quran of dawn". Here, it means, recite the Quran at fajr. Allah didn't say establish subuh prayer but instead He said Quran of dawn. It basically means, the Quran has its own right to be recited ruing fajr, during subuh time. Yes, it is still compulsory to establish subuh prayer but set aside a little bit of time after your subuh prayer to recite the Quran.

I've been trying to implement this verse in my daily life and I've practiced it for quite a few numbers of times and I must say, it really brings a lot of differences in my daily life. I guarantee you, practicing this small act will bring changes that you've never expected. The most miraculous thing is you'll see the difference immediately. You'll feel different but I can't really say how it is. You have to experience it for yourself.

So, people.

I think we should try, at least, to do this everyday. Even if we can't make it, at least, Allah sees our effort. At the end of the day, Allah sees our effort, not the effect. May Allah makes us among those who practice His religion.

That's it, people. Have a nice day! :)

Subhi - my morning.

No, not that hilarious YouTube dude, Subhi :P

So...it's Monday. We had assembly, as usual. And Dr. Melor always said wise things during assembly. I always get inspired when she talks. I don't know, she must have some magical words that once they get out of her mouth, get straight into me.

Nothing much happen this morning. Woke up, toilet, ironing uniform and getting ready. Oh, sorry Nukman for not replying your message. I did not notice your message. One thing about me in the morning, don't try to contact me when I was in the toilet because I usually don't check my phone when I'm done with my shower. Usually, I check my phone when I'm going down the stairs  for breakfast so yea, after this if I didn't reply anyone's message, it probably means I'm just getting ready for the day.

What else to write about...? I should do Mod Math assignment after this. So much assignments. Oh, a quick little something.
