Bismillah.
I just came back home after a long tiring journey from kl to my hometown.
it has been a very long time. I've not been home since before A Level starts. and that was about 2 months ago. Then i continued with Biro Tatanegara in Meru, Klang. That was another story i'll iA find time to write later. Anyway, as BTN ends i got this golden opportunity to be in Putrajaya International Conference Centre (picc) with Diyana.
Alhamdulillah.
it was again so much worth it, considering i've to travel back to kelantan all alone and all those haste of staying overnight in my aunt's house.
nevertheless, it was awesome!
The first session was with Prof. Dr Muhaya who adressed an inspiring speech on
'Garment for one another'.
As the title suggest, how you can be a garment-a protection, to another person.
it was actually a talk on how having a positive attitudes on the whole and as a muslim, will eventually lead you to the love you're looking for. He's out there somewhere, somehow and your nature most likely resembles him. kata mudahnya, banyakkan 'menjadi' dari 'mencari'.
She kept saying; 'what we attract reflect us'
'A person cannot love another if he/she cannot love him/herself and only a person who loves Allah can love him/herself.'
it was mainly about self-motivation, building a better YOU. Be a person who did everything for the meaning that it brings into life. That way, you'll reach your destination. She stressed on how many people in this world who's too much focused on everything else that they forget the purpose in what they are doing. So, they end up not reaching their destination just how a hamster running in a spinning wheel restlessly. running and keep on running but eventually be in the same place. The passion and satisfaction in what you are doing.... is simply not there.
it is the same thing with marriage. When you marry someone, always go about with the expectation to GIVE not to RECEIVE. That way, you'll have control in what you're doing and vice versa. That is the key to a wonderful marriage.
there's lesson about the type of person you should be. 3 stages in life that you'll eventually progress or in some cases, remains unchanged throughout.
neurotic ----> mediocre-------> personal development.
it is in the third stage that you begin living from 'inside' to 'outside' .
basically with the principle of LOVE, GIVE , GET.
Too much self-criticism leading to enviousness is the most neurotic of all.
While standing in front of a mirror, always remember that YOU are the person looking at it, not the person being looked at.
'calmness of mind is the jewels of wisdom'. and so, by avoiding all the negative thoughts, you make room for much positive things.
'If you are busy looking at others, you'll never look at yourself'
*****
there's too much to write and summaries which i couldn't have done brilliantly here.
There's so much more.
'Ultimate source of Liberation' and 'It's a GIRL'
by brother Yusha Evans.
There's also talk by Syeikh Alaa Elsayed.
overall, i feel so special being a woman . Islam had put us high and at par with men in terms of being His servants. It is true that, being a woman, we can't help showing our identity as a muslim very boldly when we have hijab on our head and a full covering clothes on our body. unlike men, people can tell straight away if you are a muslim.
There's even a syeikh quoting;
' the word ummah itself derived from umm, which is woman in regards. A woman is half the ummah. When she gave birth to a child, she's an ummah'
now that you know how precious we are.. #eh |
