life is about "FOCUS"


Assalamualaikum...

"Krek krek kruk krek", bunyi cakaran jari Samsul yg sedang mengutil tika plastik, tiba tiba..."PAP!!"..ustaz Ghazali mengetuk tgn Samsul dengan ekspresi wajah yg serius lantas berkata, " Haa...dah kene kacau syaitan dah!, dalam majlis ilmu kita kene fokus! kene tawajuh!!, dengar elok2 apa ustaz cakap ni!" tekejut Samsul dibuatnya. Samsul dgn segera memberi tumpuan penuh dan bertawajuh dgn penyampaian ustaz........

*******
"huaah...sahaja aku datang ke kelas untuk menuntut ilmu kerana Allah ta'ala, aku akan faham dgn lebih jelas apa yg lecturer akn smpaikan, dan ak x akan tidur dlm kelas walaupun sesaat!..", dengan langkah kiri Firdaus keluar dari bilik asramanya menuju ke kelas sambil memperbetulkan niat dan "mind setting".....setelah tiba di kelas, seperti biasa Firdaus mengambil tempat duduk di barisan tengah, dan lecture Dr. Wan Azizi pun bermula....

Ketika Firdaus sedang khusyuk belajar, matanya tidak dapat dikawal...biji mata melilau lilau mengimbas tudung2 warna warni teman2 belajar wanita di sekitarnya...."ish....jaga pandangan!!!" tegas Firdaus dgn dirinya...setelah berkali kali bertegas dgn dirinya utk menjaga pandangan barulah dia dpt beri tumpuan penuh..kunci mnjga pandangan hanyalah dengan FOKUS...
*********
Dalam kehidupan harian kita, fokus dalam urusan yg kita buat adalah sgt penting...fokus bukan boleh diaplikasikan dlm belajar dan ketika membuat kerja sahaja, tapi fokus dalam matlamat utama kita, iaitu untuk mencari keredhaan ALLAH sangat bermakna, dan mampu memberi impak besar dalam kemajuan hidup.....

Dalam menjalani kehidupan harian, memang akan terlintas fikiran2 yg tidak sepatutnya seperti teringat kereta yg diingini, wanita yg diminatinya dan mcm2 lagi..cepat2 betulkan matlamat, dan dalam hati ini hanya inginkan redha berkat, rahmat dan keampunan Allah sahaja...tidak ada selain Allah yg layak bertapak dalam hati kita...insyaAllah, dengan mengingati Allah, hati akan jadi tenang dan dgn berharap HANYA pada Redha dan pertolongan Allah, hidup bahagia dan tidak akan menyesal.....

Kematian semakin menghampiri...JOM FOKUS UTK MENGHADAPINYA!!!

all the best =)
matahari, haiwan dan tumbuh tumbuhan sentiasa fokus dgn perananya, sbb tu mereka sentiasa
berzikir dan tidak putus putus memuji Allah.....manusia bila hilang fokus akan lalai dari mengingati Allah.
dalam kehidupan kita hanya ada dua keadaan, sama ada ingat Allah atau lalai...wallahu'alam.

(dive sites location)

Pulau Sipadan is the only deep sea island in Malaysia. The depth is about 500m deep, divers can hardly see sea beds during diving. Fishers are not allowed to do fishing activities in the area about 2km around Sipadan Island. this Island is uninhabited except for rangers and soldier protecting this island from pirates invasion. I am very grateful being able to inhabit this island for about 5 days under the authority given by UKM for research purpose with my dad.
Pulau Sipadan is a gift from Allah for Malaysia. Thus we must protect the purity of this island as the wonder of this island seems to be degrading. despite seeing the wonder of this island, i feel some disappointment during the trip to Pulau Sipadan because what i see is that this island is more appreciated by non-malays and non-muslims. I have met with Elizabeth Covey during the trip. She was one of the person who is very concern about the preservation of this island. May Allah give her hidayah. From my bottom heart, it would be better if muslims takes the responsibility in preserving the world, playing his role as the khalifah of the earth. we muslims need to wake up from our sleep, its time to play our role as the khalifah, the world is no time to play...Takbir!
