Any Idea How To Get More Idea???

Hmmm... I've sat in front of the screen but still couldn't type even a single word... whats going on Abadi? Feel like sleeping? No? Yes? OOOo for God's sake please...



Anyway, yesterday PPIMI had a Tilawah Al-Quran competition at Malaysia Hall. I got another thing to do, but somehow I ended up being there whole evening. I was on my way to photo lab, suddenly I bumped with my fellas that wanted to go for a soccer match at unknown park. We had a short conversation on the match whereabout... and I decided to join them if and only if I've taken my photos at the lab... and go there by myself. But then, something wrong happened with my brain. I can't even recall which bus to take to, and the most important, which park... Nooooooo....



So then I just dumped the whole plan, and gave Wan a ring, and ask him if he is going to Malaysia Hall too. I knew I'm gonna be late for the Tadarus (reading the Quran in groups), but what the heck, I still have the chance to see the Tilawah Al-Quran competition.



Quite a bunch of guys attended, and surprisingly we received guests from as far as Galway, for the sake of the ukhwah... If I was in his position, I wouldn't even bother... hmmm... that's how evil I am... But, the whole competition was excellent! There was a time when a brother recites sentences about the punishment and mortality, I was shattered deeply... and that was my food for thought for that night.



Speaking of mortality, few days earlier, I received an email about the death of our sisters at Michigan, USA. It was an unfortunate death. Hope Allah will bless them... but the thing is, this incident woke me up, as I've nearly experienced my own demise few months ago. I can imagine whatever they've seen before being knocked down to death. Sound scary huh? Yes it is. Why? Simply because we're feeling that we're not ready for it yet...



So, from now on, be careful. Drive safe. Don't sleep while driving, or else you'll sleep forever. Listen to this song while driving... and you'll awake for the rest of the journey...



Iman Mutiara

Iman adalah mutiara

Di alam hati manusia

Yang meyakini

Allah Maha Esa, Maha Kuasa



Tanpamu iman bagaimanalah

Merasa diri hamba padaNya

Tanpamu iman bagaimanalah

Menjadi hamba Allah yang bertaqwa



Iman tak dapat diwarisi

Dari seorang ayah yang bertaqwa

Ia tak dapat dijual beli

Ia tiada di tepian pantai



Walau apapun caranya jua

Engkau mendaki gunung yang tinggi

Engkau merentas lautan api

Namun tak dapat jua dimiliki

Jika tidak kembali pada Allah...



Translation:

Faith is like a Pearl

Faith is like a pearl

Present in the human heart

Which believes in Allah

The Omnipotent and Omnipresent



Without you, faith

How could my heart submit to Allah

Without you, faith

How could I become a pious servant?



Faith cannot be inherited

From a pious father

It cannot be bought nor traded

It is not scattered just anywhere



Whatever your means may be

You may climb a steep mountain

You may cross a sea of fire

Still it will not come to you

Until you submit to Allah
