Sayyidul ayyam~

Alhamdulillah masih dipanjangkan umur untuk bertemu hari jumaat yang mulia. Kali pertama bagi tahun 1435H. Semoga tahun baru ini lebih baik buat agama, dunia dan akhirat kita.

Semoga Allah terus melimpahkan hidayah dan taufiqNya buat kita, serta meminjamkan kekuatan untuk kita menanggalkan karat-karat jahiliyyah dan berjuang untuk kehidupan yang lebih baik di sini dan di sana inshaaAllah.

Ayuh hargai nikmat dan peluang yang diberikan Allah dengan terus meningkatkan iman dan amal soleh. Banyakkan berselawat dan jangan lupa baca surah al-Kahfi ye! :')

A German proverb says:

"To change and to change for the better are two different things"

But did you know something? How sure you are that things around us is going to change? can you guarantee that everything will stay the same for the next 3-5 years? And how sure you are the things around me will change and force me to change too?

Remember Allah The Almighty has said :

"And we will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and the lost of wealth and lives and fruits, but give glad tidings to the patient [Al-Baqarah 2 : 155]

but in the same surah Allah has said :

"Allah doesn't burden a soul beyond its capacity [Al-Baqarah 2 : 286]

First our Lord warned us beforehand the test of change that we will face. Then He told us not to worry because it won't be something that we couldn't handle.

Perhaps we should ponder upon what Aeschylus says:
"I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning to sail my ship"

So my friends, for this Hijrah New Year lets us face upon all the changes that happen around us. Rather than being afraid toward something, doesn't it better for us to change to challenge that 'thing'?

What we ever need is our holy book al-Quran, sunnah, vision and determination to face another year in our live inshaaAllah.
