“Mengapakah dunia yang dikejari, sedangkan ia akan ditinggal mati?? Apalah gunanya harta disisi tika jasad terkubur terkaku mati??”
Tersentak seketika pabila lirik ini berkumandang tatkala nota En Tommy di belek-belek,,,,,Hmm,,,jadikanlah hidupku adalah ibadahku,,,,
Hohoho,,,,Alhamdulillah,,, finally and officially,,,Kak Mahirah become part of our big family,,, Welcome=) Congratulations to abg Najib,,,Selamat pengantin baru,,,
I’ve learnt many new things form this long journey to Rantau Panjang,,
The most precious thing that I’ve learnt is,,PATIENCE!!!
“Mak,,,when we’ll have another petrol station??” I asked.”Another 40 km kot” she answered,,Ya Allah,,cannot handle anymore,,,I need to go to toilet immediately,,be patience ‘Atikah,,,it was such a very hard journey for all Kelantanese,,,I wonder,,,There was only one RnR available all the way to Rantau panjang after Genting Sempah,,, so,,,next time don’t drink and ride,,,to Kelantan,,,
The route were,,,,How can I describe??
Adventurous + Awesome + Challenging + congested + winding + bouncy + Terrible,,what else??But these description can be equal to = DANGEROUS,,,,Tawakal je la,,,,due to these,,plus,,,Hari raya,,,,JAMla,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
All the way,,,,,,,,heaviest traffic jam ever!!! Kalah KL taw!!
Ayah,,sabar,,,”oit!!ikot turn la!!!” ayah shouted,,”semua orang nak balik umah la!!” Mundzir continued,,Astaghfirullhal’azim,,,Why are they like that?? Sabar je la,,,We took about 45 minutes to move for one km, , but for those who did not follow the que,,haisy!! Sabar je la,,,Imagine that,, how patient my father is,,,,wawawawaw,,(hanya kami yang tahu) We were stranded for more than 2 hours to reach the Pasir Mas round about from ESSO (the nearest petrol station) which was just few km in distance,,,
Besides that,,this long journey gave me the chance to observe n think about Allah’s creation. There are many amazing scenes all the way to Rantau Panjang,,
“We built the universe with (creative) power and We are certainly expanding it. We spread the Earth out wide and how excellent We ordered it! And We createdevery(living) thing in pairs so you could get a reminder.” [51:47-49]
We crossed many attractive recreational area includes many Taman Negara,,,Subhanallah,,,so, as the caliphs on earth,, preserve and maintain the cleanliness of these area is our responsibility!! Do you realize that?? Dissapointed=(
But,,along the way from KL-Rantau Panjang-KL,,, we heard many times of ambulance sirence,,,There are many accidents and broken cars,,,,,Tests for them,,and also for us,,,the others started to move slowly,,,,However,,,Alhamdulillah we safely arrived,,,Sabar ek!!
Even though we faced a little accident,,
Don’t cross the road like a chicken!!! We were about to hit a chicken!! The route become more challenging with the presence of these species,,chickens,,goats,,cows,,monkeys,,and somehow,,the crossing tortoise,believe me,,,,
At last, after 10 hours in the car,,,we reached Rantau Panjang at 8.30 pm,,,Sabar je la,,,all stomachs are singing,,hoping for something to digest,,Suddenly,,Ayah’s phone was ringing,,,”kitorang pon tgh cari mkn neh” mak ngah kot,,”ok!” ayah continued,,,Alhamdulillah,,we directly went to a stall nearby,,But the stall seemed to be ‘Hidup segan mati tak mau’,,hohohoho,,,we have no choice!
Alhamdulillahillazi at’amana,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,no more songs from the GIT =)
2nd day,,,,
Pheeeeeennnnn!!! People started to horn here and there,,,the Q was very long to enter the Rantau Panjang Free Zone Area,,,hohoho,,,it’s lucky for us to reached there earlier,,Rezeqi minnAllah,,,We got a strategic parking space!!
Shopping time!!!
After 2 hours walking at the famous market,,,ntahla,,,it was too crowded!!
I would like to suggest to the Tuan Guru to invest some for this market,,,upgrade the stalls,,restaurants,,and most important thing its TOILET!!! This market is one of the tourist spot which can contribute a lot to state,, plus,,Kelantan = serambi Mekah = Islamic state! And for us,,,don’t litter,,clean the toilets after you have used them,,,come on la,,,it is common sense for a Muslim who is practicing it,,, buat malu je,,,Alamaks,,,forgot to take photo of the hororrrestt toilet!,,,
Adusy,,’Kebersihan kan sebahagian dari Iman’?? please keep the toilet clean,,,I would rather keep my bladder full all the time till we go back to the rest house!! Sabar je la,,,Don’t drink and shop!!
4 pm,,,
We gathered at Masjid Beijing,,nice masjid=) all together are 7 cars,,,When was the last time thatwe got this chance to gather?? Hmm,,,Best!! Everyone is here,,,smiling,,laughing,,chatting,,but for sure,,Najib was having tachy,,,hohoho,,,soon,,become a Husband to Nur Mahirah Ramli,,

“Bub! Tanggungjawab jatuh atas bahu ni kan??” Dalila interrupted immediately after Cik Yis accepted the akad,,,”Aah,,,tkotkan?” I replied,,,we both nodded,,,
Don’t worry Dal,,,InsyaAllah,,,We already have the guidelines,,,,,,Al-Quran and As-Sunnah,,,,Good luck to Kak Mahirah and Abang Najib,,,Barakallahulak!!
“…Maka perempuan-perempuan yang salih itu ialah yang taat (kepada Allah SWT dan suaminya), dan yang memelihara (kehormatan dirinya dan apa jua yang wajib dipelihara)ketika suami tidak hadir bersama,dengan pemeliharaan Allah SWT dan pertolongan-Nya… -(Surah An-Nisa’ 4:34)
8.30pm

Candle light dinner!! Cayalah!!!
It was very dark onced we entered the junction to Kak Mahirah’s house,,,,I couldn’t see nothing,,,,”kan best klo siang,,,bley tengok kat lua”said Kak Yusra,,I just nodded,,,We were all quite,,,Focusing on the small country road in the dark of the night,,,Suddenly,,,,Along’s window was opening,,,,”Woit!! Apsal terbukak neh??!!” along was panic,,”Kurang hasam abg epul nih,,,ad eke ptot bwat camtuh!! Bwat tkot org je!!”BEngs,,,,,,,=/,,,
After 20 minutes drive in the darknest,,,we were all stopped,,”Ya Allah,,x de eletrik??” What a test??? I wonder,,,sabarje la,,

My phone was ringing just after I woke up from a nap after terawikh that night. “nape mundzir?” I asked. “ They are coming home!! Mak got her Iqama already!!” he shouted.
Alhamdulillah,,,I smiled,,,,and immediately performed a syukur prayer,,,,
They will arrive on Thursday at 10.55 am,,,2 days before raya,,,Luckily, I am available at that time to accompany Mundzir to fetch them at KLIA.
I called Yusra for this marvelous news,,,we were really grateful for this news,,,really looking forward this to happen,, every night,,, I prayed for this,,, Thank you Allah,,,
A day before the remarkable phone call from Mundzir,,he,Sumayyah,Kauthar, k.Yusra and me were thinking of a plan on our Raya,, what we're going to do,,everyone had no idea at all!! Even some of us still do not have the so called 'baju raya',,,hohhhohh,,,,we don’t feel the excitement of the celebration,,huhhhhh,,,,bohsan!!
But,, Alhamdulillah,, they are coming back!! Then,,it is Raya as usual, with ayah, mak, along, abg epul, angah, abg najib, umar, yusra, kauthar, mundzir n sumayyah,,,=)
Let us celebrate it together,,,insyaAllah,,,
Saya sangat mengkagumi kerjaya sebagai guru sekolah. Sebuah kisah yang saya paparkan ini saya ulangi dari kisah benar seorang guru beberapa tahun yang lalu.
Ceritanya:
Saya mengajar di sekolah rendah di tengah2 bandaraya Kuala Lumpur . Saya mengajar sesi petang. Salah seorang murid saya setiap hari datang lambat ke sekolah. Kasut dan bajunya selalu kotor. Setiap kali saya bertanya tentang baju dan kasutnya dia hanya berdiam diri.
Saya masih bersabar dengan keadaan pakainnya, tetapi kesabaran saya tercabar dengan sikapnya yang setiap hari datang lambat. Pada mulanya saya hanya memberi nasihat. Dia hanya menundukkan kepala tanpa berkata2 kecuali anggukkan yang seolah2 dipaksa. Kali kedua saya memberi amaran, dia masih juga mengangguk tetapi masih juga datang lambat keesokannya. Kali ketiga saya terpaksa menjalankan janji saya untuk memukulnya kalau masih lambat. Anehnya dia hanya menyerahkan punggungnya untukdirotan . Airmata saja yang jatuh tanpa sepatah kata dari mulutnya.
Keesokan harinya dia masih juga lambat, dan saya memukulnya lagi. Namun ia masih tetap datang kesekolah dan masih tetap lambat.
Suatu hari saya bercadang untuk mengintipnya ke rumahnya. Setelah mendapatkan alamatnya, saya meneruskan niat saya. Dia tinggal di sebuah kawasan setinggan t ida k berapa jauh dari sekolah. Keadaan rumahnya sangat daif. Saya nampak murid saya itu sedang berdiri di depan rumahnya dalam keadaan gelisah. Seorang wanita yang mungkin ibunya juga kelihatan gelisah.
Lebih kurang pukul 1.30 seorang anak lelaki sedang berlari2 sekuat hati menuju ke rumah itu. Sambil berlari dia membuka baju sekolahnya. Sampai di depan rumah baju dan kasutnya diserahkan pula kepada murid saya yang terus bergegas memakainya. Sebelum pakaian sekolah sempurna dipakai, dia sudah berlari ke arah sekolah.
Saya kembali ke sekolah dengan penuh penyesalan. Saya memanggil anak itu sambil menahan airmata yang mula tergenang.
"Maafkan cikgu. Tadi cikgu pergi ke rumah kamu dan memerhatikan kamu dari jauh. Siapa yang berlari memberikan kamu baju tadi?"
Dia terkejut dan wajahnya berubah.
"Itu abang saya. Kami kongsi baju dan kasut sebab tak ada baju lain. Itu saja baju dan kasut yang ada. Maafkan saya, cikgu." Jawabnya
"Kenapa kamu tak beritahu cikgu dan kenapa kamu biarkan saja cikgu pukul kamu?"
" Mak pesan, jangan meminta2 pada orang, jangan ceritakan kemiskinan kita pada orang. Kalau cikgu nak pukul serahkan saja punggung kamu."
Sambil menahan airmata yang mula berguguran saya memeluk anak itu, "Maafkan cikgu, ......."
Kejadian itu cukup menginsafkan saya. Selepas itu saya cuba membantunya setakat yang mampu.
Cerita2 begini membantu melembutkan hati yang keras. Kata seorang guru, sekiranya hati kita mula keras lembutkanlah dengan perkara2 berikut;
i. Solat sunat
ii. puasa sunat
iii. berzikir
iv. bersedekah
v. mengusap rambut anak yatim
vi. mendengar cerita2 kesusahan orang lain
vii. membantu orang susah
menitis air mata tatkala email ni di baca,,,,bersyukurlah atas segala ni'mat pemberian Allah,,,,
"Maka yang mana satu di antara nikmat-nikmat Tuhan kamu, yang kamu hendak dustakan (wahai umat manusia dan jin)?" -Ar-Rahman:13
