puasa sunat

well.. i think it is still relevent for me to talk about this 'puasa sunat', we r still in Syawal month rite? :) this, i dedicate to all my non-Muslims frens out there, since they asked me a lot regarding the puasa sunat.. mind u, i'm not that good at discussing about religious things but i'll try my best, in simplified way :)

situation: during lunch time

frens: F, let's go eat

F: you guys go la, i'm fasting today

frens: fasting? bulan puasa already past rite?

F: err.. yup..

frens: then?

F: i'm fasting puasa sunat

frens: sunat? what's that for?

F: ahah.. how to say aa.. i'm fasting sunat, means that if i fast, i'll get the reward, if i dun fast, i wl not lose anything.. some more, there is this saying, if we the Muslims puasa sunat for 6 days in raya month (Syawal), the reward is like we r fasting for one whole year..

frens: oowwhh..

then, there is one guy said: owh, if like that, u dun have to fast during puasa month la. u just puasa for 6 days in raya month, n u wl still get the one whole year reward!

F: errkkk!!!

ahah.. that's the confusion!

well my fellow frens, the puasa in bulan Ramadhan is wajib, an obligation, a must. on the other hand, the fasting i said in bulan raya is sunat, means if we do it, we'll get the reward, if we dun do it, nothing will happen. these WAJIB n SUNAT are 2 different things.. if we dun do the sunat things, it is not a sin. n God will love it if we do it. the wajib thing is compulsory, if we dun do it, we'll get sin.. (senang cerita la)

so, the puasa in bulan Ramadhan is wajib, n in raya month is sunat.. how to do a sunat while u dun do the obligatory one? logic tak? also, the puasa during Ramadhan is one of the 5 pillars of Islam.. if one pillar is down, the Islam is not complete. how to get rewards if we dun do the compulsory. rite?

hm.. and God is very generous, He gives a lot of reward when u do just simple things.. this is the opportunity to gain His blessings and rewards! (with God's will @ InsyaAllah..) so, this is why i'm fasting... n yah, the puasa sunat is not only applicable during Raya month, it can b done anytime of the year. so, if u see any Muslim fasts during any other time, dun think of puasa ganti (replacement) je tau.. again, the reward of as if u r fasting for one whole year is when u fast 6 days during raya month..

ok.. that's all folk.. anything u still confuse, let me know. InsyaAllah, i'll help to enlighten you :)

“Tiap-tiap yang berjiwa akan merasakan mati. Kemudian hanyalah kepada Kami kamu dikembalikan.” (QS. 29:57)

muhasabah diri.. kematian mmg akan menjemput kita. cuma bila masanya tidak kita ketahui.. semoga diri kita sentiasa dilindungi Allah selalu.. takut juga kalau2 diri ini dijemput ketika terlalai.. nauzubillah.. baca ni. to Nabia, ape jadi dgn azam kita? hg stil ingt kan? :)


~ long weekend. near exam. ergh!

IB vs SPM? apekah?

IB or SPM for MCKK and TKC

PUTRAJAYA: Students of Malay College Kuala Kangsar and Tunku Kurshiah College may soon choose if they want to sit for the International Baccalaureate (IB) or the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia.

The IB diploma programme can be used for entry into major universities around the world.
Education Minister Datuk Seri Hisham­muddin Tun Hussein announced that both schools would be offering the IB from 2011.

"It will be up to the schools to decide if students can sit for one or both examinations," he told reporters after releasing the third report card based on the National Education Blueprint 2006-2010.

In March last year, Hishammuddin said heads of cluster schools would be given autonomy in five key areas: human resources, school funds, student intake, teaching and learning, and examinations and evaluation.

"The heads of both colleges have been given the flexibility to decide. On our part, we want to see results," he said.

Cluster schools have been defined in the blueprint as excellent schools within an existing grouping, and each is supposed to be a role model for other schools.

The schools can apply for funding of up to RM500,000 to carry out various projects, and must also identify niche areas (curriculum and non-curriculum) that they want to focus on.

To date, Hishammuddin said the 30 cluster schools from the first batch had received half of their funding, with the rest to be given based on the performance of the schools.

He said several of the cluster schools were already showing excellent results.

"This includes SK Ulu Lubai in Limbang, Sarawak. This is a rural school but its pupils have a good command of English and have done well in sports and cultural activities," he said.

~pale colour rose for our friendships~

DENGARLAH DUHAI TEMANKU SAYANG

Temanku,
Allah menciptakan manusia sama,
Dengan sebaik-baik kejadian,
Cuma amalan manusia itu berbeza-beza,
Ada yang lalai dengan angan-angan,
Ada yang tekun berusaha,
Tentu nasib mereka berlainan,
Kerana Allah Maha Adil sifat-Nya,
Kelalaian dibalas kegagalan,
Kerajinan dibalas kejayaan dan pahala,
Kau diberi peluang membuat pilihan,
Kau jua yang tanggung natijahnya.
‘Sesungguhnya Kami menciptakan manusia itu dengan sebaik-baik kejadian.’
(QS al-Tin: 4)

Sedarlah temanku,
Kita musafir di dunia,
Kita akan pulang kepada-Nya,
Hidup di dunia akan ditanya,
Adakah diisi dengan sebaiknya,
Atau keseronokan semata-mata?
Mahukah kita hidup terhina?
Tanpa ilmu sebagai bekalnya,
Kelak disana rendah darjatnya.
‘Allah akan mengangkat orang beriman di antaramu dan orang berilmu beberapa darjat.’
(QS al-Mujadilah: 11)

Temanku,
Renungilah sebiji cawan,
Jika tidak dituang air,
Molekul udara memenuhinya,
Begitu juga diri kita,
Jika tidak diisi iman,
Masuklah syaitan bermaharajalela,
Diri kita perlu pengisian,
Dengan ilmu dan agama,
Agar hidup dekat dengan-Nya,
Barulah hatimu tenang bahagia.

Ketahuilah temanku,
Kemuliaan manusia bukan pada luaran,
Tapi pada hati yang takutkan Tuhan,
Oleh itu, tekadkan keyakinan,
Kau umat pilihan,
‘You are the best ummah.’ (QS Ali Imran: 110)
‘Sesungguhnya orang yang paling mulia di sisi Allah adalah orang yang paling bertakwa.’ (QS Al-Hujurat: 13)
Jelaskan visi perjalanan,
‘Ya Tuhan kami, berilah kami kebaikan, di dunia dan kebaikan di akhirat dan peliharalah kami dari azab neraka.’ (QS Al-Baqarah: 201)
Jadikan ilmu sebagai bekalan,
‘Bacalah! Bacalah dengan (menyebut) nama Tuhanmu yang menciptakan.’ (QS Al-Alaq:1-2).
Sedarlah kita pemikul amanah Tuhan,
‘Sesungguhnya Kami telah mengemukakan amanat kepada langit, bumi dan gunung-ganang, maka semuanya enggan memikul amanat itu dan mereka khuatir akan mengkhianatinya, dan dipikullah amanat itu oleh manusia. Sesungguhnya manusia itu amat zalim dan amat bodoh (kerana mahu menerima tugas tetapi tidak melaksanakan).’ (QS Al-Ahzab: 72).
Ketinggian seseorang kerana iman,
‘Janganlah kamu bersikap lemah, dan janganlah pula kamu bersedih hati, padahal kamulah orang-orang yang paling tinggi darjatnya, jika kamu orang-orang yang beriman.’ (QS Ali Imran: 139)

Lantaran itu, carilah reda Tuhan,
Dengan sebaik-baik amalan,
Usaha x istiqomah – malas / masa + yakin,
asas kejayaan,
‘Allah tidak akan ubah nasib sesuatu kaum sehingga dia mengubah nasibnya sendiri.’ (QS Ar-Ra’d: 11).
‘Jikalau mereka bersungguh-sungguh reda dengan apa yang diberikan alah dan Rasul-Nya kepada mereka dan berkata: cukuplah Allah bagi kami, Allah akan memberikan kepada kami sebahagian dari kurnia-Nya dan demikian pula Rasul-Nya, sesungguhnya kami adalah orang yang berharap kepada Allah, (tentulah yang demikian itu lebih baik bagi mereka).’ (QS At-Taubah: 59)

Temanku,
Kau tidak bodoh andai kau gagal selepas berusaha,
kerana itu satu ujian dan dijanjikan pahala,
bakal mengangkat darjatmu disisi-Nya,
jika kau redha, sabar dan terus berusaha,
Tapi, kau sememangnya bodoh,
jika kau langsung tidak berusaha,
kerana pasti kau akan gagal dan menderita,
Tiada nilaian pahala dari-Nya,
Malah kau pula menanggung dosa,
Lantaran kau sia-siakan amanah berharga.

Temanku,
Bangkitlah dari lenamu yang panjang,
dan tidak pernah berkesudahan,
Sekali kau terjatuh,
Jangan biarkan dirimu jatuh selamanya,
Kau punya kekuatan untuk bangkit semula,
dan mara berlari kencang,
mencipta taufan.
Berjuanglah temanku sayang,
Tanpa mengenal penat dan jemu,
Biar hidup kita derita dengan usaha,
Kelak kita akan di mulia,
Jika tidak di dunia,
Nun di syurga.

p/s: eh, sape pinjam my Tautan Hati? lupe la..
