LiFe aNd EvErYtHiNg In It

Yeah, I know..It's past mid-night and I'm still up?? Well what do you expect?? I am bored...

So on this peaceful night, I would like to ask all of you to MUHASABBAH ourselves and what we have done...

These past 2 weeks have been a wild ride for me. But as my friend Rufaidah always says, "ALLAH tests us to teach us.."

So all that has happened to me in the past 2 weeks..I have come to realized that it has HELPED me in soo many ways. For surely, ALLAH has taught me a great deal about LIFE..

First lesson: 'The doas of people who are accused are always answered'

I know, you guys must say..but the first time in my life, I actually experienced it..I finally felt that ALLAH is there for me..always have..it's just ME who isn't there

Second lesson: 'Forgive and Forget'

I learned that no matter how much someone has to hurt you..and you have the right to hurt them back..but it is much WISER to forgive them and forget about what they have done...It's not easy but once you do it..it feels a lot better...

Imam Syafie once said, " True pleasures of life is when you give forgiveness and you forget."

Third lesson: 'Friends'

Whenever you are in a tough situation..make sure you have friends around...During these 2 weeks there was a DEAR friend that helped me a lot..from the beginning to the end..

She didn't just help me solve my problem but it's like she ...she..I don't know how to say it...

So it is very important to have GOOD friends...if you want to judge a person..look at their friends...

Fourth lesson: 'Trust'

Ah..this is what I REALLY learned...sometimes people tend to go haywired..because they heard something..then because of that thing..all trust is gone..what I learned is even though people lose trust in you, doesn't give you the right to lose your trust in them..

TRUST is very precious...it should not be simply taken away without a GOOD reason..and even if people doubt you, you have to TRUST in yourself

Fifth lesson: 'Quran has ALL the answers'

Here's what Wani told me to do..and it always works...

Whenever you have a problem...take the Quran..open it..read the page that you open...for on that page has the answers to your problems...I did it countless of times...and it has never failed...

MOST IMPORTANT LESSON: 'ALLAH IS ALWAYS THERE'

At the very end, when my problem was solved..that friend told me...

'Hidayah, you are so lucky..because ALLAH is helping you..for the past 2 weeks..I see that ALLAH is always there for you..keep that in mind.'

I won't just keep that in mind..I'll keep that in my heart..because I have never noticed that..Oh Allah..thanks for EVERYTHING...

here are 2 more minor lessons I learned:
- Never trust anyone on the net
- Investigate before you accuse someone..or else you'll end up feeling like a FOOL

So that's what I learned the past 2 weeks...oh yeah..for A FRIEND OUT THERE..

No matter how stinky life is...killing yourslef is not the answer for ALLAH has stated in the Quran...

" and don't kill yourselves for ALLAH loves you..." (An-Nisa:29)

Hope everyone can benefit....
