Blind girl

There was a blind girl who hated herself just because she's blind. She hated everyone, except her loving fiance. He is always there for her. Blind girl said that if she could only see the world, she would marry her fiance.
One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to the blind girl and then she can see everything, including her fiance.
Her fiance asked her, "now that you can see the world, will you marry me?" The girl was shocked when she saw that her fiance is blind too, and refused to marry him.
Her fiance walked away in tears, and later wrote a letter to girl saying. "Just take care of my eyes dear."
Moral: This is how human brain changes when the status changed. Only few remember what life was before, and who's always been there even in the most painful situations.
Never take someone for granted, Hold every person close to your Heart because you might wake up one day and realize that you have lost a diamond while you were too busy collecting stones. Remember this always in life!
"You learn to love, not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly."

Apa itu Usrah???

“Di dalam diri kita (setiap Muslim), mesti ada rasa cintakan kebaikan dan bencikan kejahatan..” kata Ustaz Habil (ustaz saya sewaktu masih lagi menutut di sekolah menengah).
Katanya lagi.. “ Nafsu yang Tuhan berikan kepada kita adalah sama tetapi ianya bergantung kepada diri sendiri untuk membentuknya, perlu untuk kita tapis (anasir-anasir jahat) dan menjaganya dengan keimanan yang kuat...”
“Perlu ada kepatuhan pada etika dalam syariat Islam..”
“Jadi hiasilah hidup kita ini dengan tarbiyyah..dan dalam pada itu, perlulah ada ketekunan dan kesabaran dalam mentarbiyyah diri kita supaya mendapat keredhaan Allah Taala”
Maka di sini, saya hanya ingin berkongsi dengan sahabat-sahabat sekalian tentang kepentingan mentarbiyyah diri dalam suasana USRAH.

Sand and Stone

Two friends Ismail and Ibrahim were walking through the desert, as the sun was beating down on their heads, and they were thirsty for water they began to argue. The argument got more and more heated and eventually Ismail struck Ibrahim across the face. Ibrahim felt hurt inside, but without anything to say, he wrote in the sand: "Today, my best friend slapped me in the face."

They kept on walking, until eventually they came across an oasis, where they decided to stop and bathe. Ibrahim jumped in and began to wash, while Ismail sat back and relaxed. Suddenly Ibrahim began to scream and shout, he had developed a cramp and was having difficulty keeping his head above water, he was drowning.

Ismail dived in after him, and brought him gently to shore. When Ibrahim recovered from the shock, he scratched a message on a nearby stone:

"Today, my best friend saved my life"

Ismail who had saved and slapped his best friend Ibrahim, asked him, "Why, after I hurt you, you wrote in the sand, and now you write on a stone?"

Ibrahim, smiled and replied:

"When a friend hurts us, we should write his deeds in the sand, where the winds of forgiveness can blow it away, and when a friend does something good, we should engrave it in stone, where it shall remain for eternity."
