8 Zulhijjah 1431 (according to the calendar app on the left, it's 9 and i've always been using dat..strange...)
Anyway, assalamualaikum warahmatullah...
Yesterday was officially my last lesson at PADA for the year...hence, i now have finally gotten the knowledge of the 7 habits of the mind. alhamdulillah...
not to mention dat for the previous perdaus lesson, we also looked thru the traits of a mukmin...
i tink for me, im one of de moz rugi person on earth...y is dat so? i haf so much ilmu from the years of education dat ive went thru...but the worst part is i do not mengamalkan wat i have learnt...
it's juz a waste lah honestly...
my top problem right now is lagha...it's so easy for me to terjebakkan diri dalam lagha...mindless distractions dat doesnt benefit me...sighs...

Assalamualaikum warahmatullah..
Yesterday, I was thinking about how I need 2 b closer 2 my creator...so, i started looking around..looking at de sky n de trees n plants around me...den, i was tinking..perhaps, i shd take it a step further n reflect on wat i was seeing...
so, i decided to reflect on the plants...its beauty, its variety, its benefits...n den i remembered a hadith dat we covered in class recently..so, i decided dat 4 my 1st hadith reflection, i'd like to reflect on dis hadith...
Dari Ibnu Umar r.a., katanya Rasulullah s.a.w. bersabda: "Di antara beberapa pohon, ada pohon yang tidak gugur daunnya; pohon itulah perumpamaan seorang muslim. Terangkanlah kepadaku, pohon apakah itu?" Orang-orang yang hadir ketika itu menebak, "Pohon dalam hutan belukar." Kata Ibnu Umar, "Saya menebak pohon korma. Tetapi saya malu mengatakannya." Kata mereka, " Tunjukkanlah kepada kami, ya Rasulullah! Pohon apakah itu?" Jawab Nabi, "Pohon korma!"Narrated ibn Omar (radiyAllahu anhu):
The Prophet (sallAllahu alayhi wasallam) said, “Amongst the trees, there is a tree, the leaves of which do not fall and is like a Muslim. Tell me the name of that tree.” Everybody started thinking about the trees of the desert areas. And I thought of the date-palm tree but felt too shy to answer. The others then asked, “What is that tree, O Allah’s Apostle?” He replied, “It is the date-palm tree.”
So, anyway, since Rasulullah s.a.w. has said dat a date tree is like a muslim, i went to look up on the benefits of the date tree and date fruits...so, here are some links to share...
http://www.ayushveda.com/dietfitness/benefits-of-dates/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_dactyliferaso, y r we muslims compared to de date tree? It's precisely coz date trees are beneficial...as in they r useful in society..be it the leaves, the fruits, the wood...hence, what we shd contemplate on is how r we as muslims in our society? do we contribute to society? do we make ourself of use to others in the community?
as my ustadz touched on d other time, what kind of legacy will we leave behind when we die? what will people remember us for?
for me, i dun tink i've done much in my life for the society...guess it's sumting i need to work on..=/
hmm...im not sure if dis reflection is gg on well...
btw! i found a muslim manga website! i was amazed dat dere is such a website..alhamdulillah.. i luv reading comics so, perhaps now, i can try to read wat's up at muslim manga..=) i've included it in my links section on the left hand side of the blog..
yupz...ok den, shall go off..
Assalamualaikum!
Luv,
Amal Hayati.
