Why are you studying?

salamun alaik.. love to talk about my favourite topic --> education!
someone said to me " even we're studying lillahi taala, we have to get the best result in exam, and at least become the dean's list, we'll be on the stage". Hurm.. something gets wrong here, you know why? because the term 'ikhlas' lillahi taala that i understand is vice versa. ikhlas means that you're doing something in the name of Allah and only for Him, then, you're not expect anything else others than what Allah had serve for you. By example, when you're studying lillahi taala, Allah will rewards you and will uphold you darjat. am i right? ( i got this in the book of 'adab hamalatul quran'). Then, what is the point by putting the stage as your target in study? are you going to boast out with you result?

Wait.. those words seems too harsh, right? then, someone asked me, "if we're praying solat hajat, then we asked something from Allah, does it means that we're not ikhlas?" ~ this is my answer : the solat hajat is perfomed to asked our needs from Allah, in addition, Allah said in Quran
 " ... Aku mengabulkan permintaan org2 yang meminta apabila dia meminta.. "
  BUT, it is different with studying, the main point of studying is to get the knowledge which make you closer to Him who is al-ilm. In any field that you choose especially for those who choose islamic study ( and the most specially is to the students of quran). By aming the dean's list in your study will throw you in the basket of normal-exam-oriented student! We have to reborn the islamic studying system. they're studying to undersatnd it and apply in our daily life not applying it on the one-and-a- half hour exam paper. 

Aha.. i'm remembering something, my fren had been attacked with questions on her open discussin, one of them said something like this when she uttering about exam-oriented student
" Jangan mimpi, jangan mimpi, jangan mimpi.. sedang belajar malas.. hendak dapatkan result terbaik pun susah, inikan pula mahu bercakap tentang exam oriented ". Wow.. sarcastic!
im not going to answer this statement.. im just writing to convey the true concept of study lillahi taala.

Okay.. lts make it simple. We're studying lillahi taala and answering our exam paper correctly to get the best result for our PARENTS.. im repeating for our PARENTS. why? because it will make them happy in order to become anak soleh. Ehem.. every parents love to see their chldren's success, so, fulfil their wish. Finally, you'll get both --> the knowledge n blessed from Allah and parent's bless. InsyaAllah

    exam-oriented system-that was a big mistake made by government.
    they told student to study,study and study without doing anything else.
    that's why malaysian student did not perform in other field of life such as sports, economy n ect.

Memori Azimat Diriku

Oktober 2009. Jarum jam menghampiri pukul 12.00 tengah hari, kami sebagai peserta Kem Latihan Kepimpinan 09’ sedang menyusun resolusi bagi sesi kami tahun hadapan. Ketika sesi itu berlangsung, Ketua Umum I mempengerusikan majlis. Kami diminta duduk seperti ahli parlimen, semua KP duduk di atas kerusi dalam satu bulatan besar tanpa lapis. Manakala, 10 orang Ahli Majlis Tertinggi termasuk aku, Fatin, Afiza, Timah dan Myrabell dan AMT muslimin berada di tengah. Taktala KU I menalankan sesi itu, fasi kami, abang Hazwan tiba-tiba memanggil dia untuk berbincang sesuatu. Lalu, aku selaku KU II terpaksa mengambil alih peranan KU I. Maka, bermulalah episode yang tidak pernah kami jangka akan terjadi dalam KLIK 09’.   Bilik Badar SMKA SHAMS  Aku meneruskan tugasnya tadi untuk menulis semua cadangan-cadangan dari KP2 bagi sesi kami akan datang. Selesai menulis cadangan yang terakhir muat di atas white board, tiba-tiba aku bersuara, “ Oh, rupa-rupanya ada otak semua KP ni? Ana ingat

Diari Musafir Ilmu 2

Salam kesejahteraan dan keselamatan buatmu guru, Hari itu, aku dikunjungi guru baru. Guru ini sangat aneh bagiku. Namun, aku tetap perlu menerimanya seadanya dalam musafirku menuntut ilmu. Guru ini pelik, fikirannya caca merba. Ayatnya berputar-putar, namun isinya masih ada. Cuma, aku perlu berhati-hati dalam menapis ‘ilmu’ yang dicurahkannya. Ah, mungkin kalian mengenali gerangan guruku ini, tidak mengapalah, aku xperlu mendedahkan siapa jua identity guruku. Aku mempelajari tentang hakikat sebenar keimanan, yang mana tanpa kepercayaan memang sudah tiada apa yang boleh kita laksanakan. Aku juga memperhalusi jiwa seorang yang kecewa, di mana dari kekecewaan itu kepercayaan (keimanan)-nya hilang dan musnah. Hakikatnya, dia sudah tidak mampu mendengar syarahan panjang tentang nafi dan itsbat dalam kalimah syahadatain. Katanya itu sume penipu! Dadaku berombak kencang kala ‘guruku’ itu berbicara. Risau pada sahabat-sahabat yang masih baru dalam ilmu ini. Aku kira dalam perkara ini,

Bernoulli's principle

A principle about speed and pressure (if im not wrong). the applications is on the wings of aeroplane, when the speed of air above the wing is higher, then the pressure is low. while the pressure below the wing will be greater which result in the upwards movement of wings and the earoplane itself. (thanks mama, still remembering u). What about its application in life? let image the speed of air as the obstacles of life, the wings is ourself, while the pressure below is our inner potential. Is it true when we face hardness in life it will rise up our inner potential? I have a story to tell you. It happen when me n my frens (teah, naimah, mizah, nad and ... couldn't remember them sorry ) took part in Karnival Sains peringkat Negeri Sembilan. I still remember how nervous we're with our small and silly experiment with our titlte as the single SMKA student which take part in the carnival, it really make us low esteem. we devided into two group, my group sat beside TKC's (Tun
