Be extremely vigilant of the dominant qualities of a given people in any given land, and don’t be heedless of the divine wisdom in the creation and notice gentleness and separation.
Organise your time, in a matter appropriate to the times specific needs using gentleness and toleration and be very wary of either harshness or laxity. This is so because too much laxity concerning permissible maters pulls the heart backwards in its journey; until even a man of resolve ends up like a foolish boy.
Thus do not neglect the externals of your worldly needs, in the meantime don’t be heedless of your end and final resting place. Be extremely vigilant about avoiding positions of leadership but if you are tried with such matters at least know your limitations. Be absolutely sincere to Allah with a sincerity of one who knows full well who is placing demands on him.
Surrender completely to His decree with a submission of one who knows he can never overcome him.
Have a firm foundation for all your affairs and you will be safe from their pitfalls. Organise your devotional practices and you will find your time is extended due to the Baraka (blessings) in it.

My 5th Islamic Birthday
Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
Alhamdulillah! Today is Day of Ashura, (Ten Muharram).
5 years ago, on this faithful day, i pronounced my testimony of faith and entered into the fold of Islam.Well, not many friends would know that i actually converted on this day except for my mentor. He and his other friend were my witnesses to my conversion.
It's only 5 years.... but somehow i felt like as though it has been over a decade.
So I got a fresh 'book of record' the moment i became a Muslim on ten muharram 1426H. Yes, I did strive very hard to keep my records clean but I know it pretty well in my heart, how 'badly managed' is my book of record now...
Deeply etched in my heart is the constant reminder i gave myself: to seek forgiveness from Allah swt in every little sin that I commit with the faculties that He bestows upon me.
In one hadith qudsi, Allah has reassured us:
Son of Adam, so long as you keep calling upon Me and hoping for good from Me, I shall forgive you whatever you have done, and I do not mind. Son of Adam, were your sins to rise as high as the sky, and were you to ask Me for forgiveness, I would forgive you. Son of Adam, were you to come to Me with sins as large as would fill the earth, and meet Me having ascribed no partner to Me, I would bring you forgiveness as great as your sins. (Tirmidhi)
When My servants ask you concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them). I listen to the Prayer of every supplicant when he calls on Me. Let them also, with a will, listen to My call, and believe in me so that they may walk in the right way. (Surah al-Baqara 186)

Words of Wisdom (Part 2)
Act in accordance with principal and appropriate legal rulings and not in accordance with stories and fantasies; don’t even consider stories of how things went with others except as a tonic to strengthen your resolve; certainly not as a reference based on the outward forms or of what they seem to be telling us.
In all of this depend upon a clear path you can refer to and a foundation that you can depend upon in all of your states.
Do not take from others, words unless it is in accordance with your own path; but submit to their implications if you desire a realisation.
Avoid all forms of vain and foul speech to your absolute utmost; put aside anything that you cannot discern its benefit immediately.
Beware of being extremely hard on yourself before you have obtained a mastery over it; also beware of being to lax with it in anything that concerns sacred rulings. This is because it is constantly fleeing from moderation in everything and it inches towards extremism in both maters of deviance and guidance (the nature of the self is extremism in both obedience and disobedience).
Seek out a companion to help you out in your affairs and take his counsel concerning matters that occur both in your inward states and your outward affairs. If you do indeed take his companionship; then treat him in a manner that honours his state, and give him of your counsel based upon his inabilities and abilities because the perfected friend is no longer to be found.
Indeed in these times even a suitable companion, who is agreeable, rarely lasts. Beware of the majority of peoples in matters concerning your religious and worldly states, unless you have ascertained he has some sound relationship with his lord based upon a knowledge that is free of his caprice or love of leadership and a sound intellect free of the pitfalls of hidden agendas.
Do not be heedless of the scheming of others or their hidden states. Consider these two from both their origin and their actions. A person of character and family distinction rarely affects you with other than good; yet a person with low origins; roots cause him to disregard you when times get tough.

Words of Wisdom (Part 1)
Some words of wisdom from Sheikh Ahmed Zarruq (d. in Libya in 1492, a scholar from Morocco):
Know; may Allah give you and me success and rectify our worldly and other worldly lives and grant us adherence to the ways of the truth in our journeys and sojourns; that repentance is a key and Taq’wa is vast and uprightness is the source of rectification.
Furthermore a servant is never free of either blunders or shortcomings therefore never be neglectful of Tawbah (repentance) and never turn away from the act of returning to Allah (swt) and never neglect acts that bring you closer to Him.
Indeed every time one of these three occur, repent and return, every time you make a mistake, listen and obey. Anytime you display shortcomings or show lack of enthusiasm don’t desist in your efforts. Let your main concern be to remove from your outer states anything that is displeasing and then maintain its outward state through continual counsel. Continue doing this until you find yourself fleeing from anything outwardly displeasing is second nature and that your avoidance of the boundaries of prohibited things is as if it acts like a protective net that is placed before you.
At this point it is time to turn inwards towards your hearts presence and to its reality with both reflection and remembrance. Don’t hasten the end result before you have completed the beginning; likewise don’t begin without looking towards the end result because the one who seeks the outset at the end looses beneficial guidance, and the one who seeks the end at the outset loses beneficial care.

Muharram 1431H
I end this year 1430H with a heavy heart.
A heart full of guilt and grief.
A heart full of remorse and repentance.
A heart that is tainted with black spots.
A heart that is congested with laziness and gluttony.
As the year is nearing, I sincerely and seriously want to write down some ‘resolutions’ for myself.
Bad habits that needs to be changed, attitude that need to be reformed, adab that need to develop, behavior that conforms and adhere (insya allah) in the way of the Prophet s.a.w.
The list is endless man… masya allah.
And with a new year approaching, I’ve also changed the theme of this blog. Perhaps there would not be anymore personal experiences nor encounters for sharing especially if it causes displeasure amongst other muslims. Insya allah, I will share more meaningful articles with everyone.
O Allah, I seek Your forgiveness and mercy! Ya Allah, please give me another year to reform; to be a better servant of Allah swt and a better Muslim. I acknowledge my faults, sins and shortcomings ya Allah!

Knowledge
I attended a course on Communications and Relationship Management in CSC last week.And for the first time, i met a Malay speaker.
The experience that i had only reinforces my thoughts on the importance of possessing knowledge and not belittling anyone.
We were in this chapter on dealing with the different cultures and beliefs of the races in S'pore. So there were examples of things that the Chinese hate when it comes to gifts and they loved auspicious colours(red) and numbers(8,9), and they believed that if you don't tie a red string round your little finger when you attend a funeral and the spirits will follow you home. And then when it comes to the section on Malays, there is no doubt that generally most Malays are Muslims and they don't take pork and they think that pigs and dogs are unclean. So when the speaker finished with that sentence, a participant(non-malay) asked him why the dog is unclean.
Did you know what he answered? "How would i know?? I didn't write the Quran!" (Subhanallah!!!)
I don't know what he meant by that answer and i shouldn't be interpreting. So i gave him the benefit of the doubt that he may feel that this is not an environment to explain things like these issues.
And i want to highlight another thing about him which is worthy of mention. Because of the limitedness of this 'government' building, there was no designated space for Muslims to pray. Even though the mosque is nearby, it can be quite inconvenient when the lunch time doesn't coincide within the prayer times. This Malay speaker prayed his asar right in the room itself. Masya allah!(but of course, it was during the times we were doing our group work). Well, my husband too agreed that not many would do this.

On a last note, my teacher, Ust Zhul once told his students;" Muslims have a great product (Islam) but we are poor salesmen."
This post has no ill intentions of judging anyone nor belittling anyone. It just serves as an enlightenment and a reminder to myself.

ALHAMDULILLAH!
I still remember the time when I was browsing through some books at the bookshop in Darul Arqam(Muslim Converts' Association of S'pore) and this Chinese sister came up to me and talked to me. She was the first Chinese Muslim friend i had at that time, even though i wasn't a full-fledged muslim yet.
She has been a volunteer with Darul for donkey years. And she had been my friend and closest pillar of support during those times when i had no one else. Though she's not so good with her remarks, but actually she has a heart of gold. She has to work and feed herself and her 20yr old son who is currently studying in the polytechnic. It must have been hard for her all these years after her husband passed away.
Despite all these, she did not stop showing concern for me. We do not meet as often ever since i got married so sometimes we would call one another. She would always be the one to text and inform me about the events that Darul is organising. She was also the one who told me to renew my membership with Darul and sign myself up as a volunteer so that i could render my services to the new converts. To date, I have not done so. I haven't gotten much support from my spouse and hence the delay.
It is with much regret that all forms of support had vanished together with my mentor when he left, and Darul could not fill in the gaps created from the time my parents distanced me the moment i chose a different religion as them. Those times were really really really challenging.
I ever threatened to him that i will renounce the faith. But at the back of my mind, i kept asking myself the question over and over again;' Will I? Should I?' I need to make the right decision for myself, and not for anyone else. For many nights, I couldn't sleep and I pondered over the question of 'to stay or to abandon'. Abandoning Islam would mean that i would still have a roof over my head but would not mean that i have a good end. But if i stay on, i could risk destroying everything that i have and i would have to start all over again.
Is it worth taking up this challenge?
And alhamdulillah, by the Grace and Mercy of Allah swt, I made the decision and continued my journey as a Muslim.
Although my journey continued without the presence of my mentor, Allah swt sent superb friends along the way. And she was one of them.
May Allah swt reward her in this world and the next for what she has done and continue to bestow upon her strength and assistance in her journey here. ameen ameen ya rabbal alamin.

Troubles and troubled
Of late, my mind was busy boggling with several issues. I have so much to say but not everything can be spoken. Well, although the blog is free for anyone to voice out what they have in mind but most importantly, we need to be responsible with what we write in our blogs.
I wish that i could confide in someone else besides my husband but i feared saying things which i shouldn't say, reveal things which i shouldn't reveal. Well, i guess, the best choice is still ALLAH.
O Allah, the All-Hearing, All-Seeing, All-knowing... You hear, You see and You are totally aware of what's going on with your servants, every single one of them. And for that matter, shouldn't those attributes be the strongest deterrent and reminder to myself that no matter what i think, Allah swt knows jolly well what's going on in my mind. (and everything that i'm thinking right now isn't spared!)
If, whatever that i have learnt from books, to obey and to avoid, and yet i defy it and did not act upon it, am i considered as a hypocrite?
O Allah! Help me! Save me! You got me out from the deepest abyss of darkness into the nur of Islam, please don't ever let me go back there again!

Thankfulness
Do we Muslims thank Allah swt for everything, whether they be good or bad, or when things don't go our way?
I would like to share a very interesting article with fellow bloggers about thankfulness (shakur). The actual source is from this website, so i have provided a link for you to visit and read the article.
"If you are thankful, I will surely give you more; but if you are ungrateful, My punishment is terrible indeed." (14:7)

Advice for memorising the Quran
Bismillahir rahmanirrahim
We can try this:
-Memorize 3 lines after each obligatory prayer.So by the end of the 5 prayers, insya allah we would have memorize 15 lines from the Quran. And by 6 days, you can review all the 90lines.
-Review and review over and over again without boredom.
-Write it down with the meanings.
-When you meet your friends, review it with them and don't leave them with just having fun. Remind your brothers and sisters.

The Cherisher and Sustainer
The likeness of the life of the Present is as the rain which We send down from the skies: by its mingling arises the produce of the earth - which provides food for men and animals: (it grows) till te earth is clad with its golden ornaments and is decked out (in beauty): the people to whom it belongs think they have all powers of disposal over it: there reaches it Our command by night or by day, and We make it like a harvest clean-mown, as if it had not flourished only the day before! Thus do We explain the Signs in details for those who reflect.
But Allah does call to the Home of Peace: He does guide whom He please to a way that is straight.
Surah Yunus 10: 24-25
Say: "Who is it that sustains you (in life) from the sky and from the earth? Or who is it that has power over hearing and sight? And who is it that brings out the living from the dead and the dead from the living? And who is it that rules and regulates all affairs? They will soon say, "Allah". Say, "Will you not then show piety (to Him)?"
Such is Allah, your real Cherisher and Sustainer: apart from Truth, what (remains) but error? How then are you turned away?
Surah Yunus 10: 31-32

God consciousness
Those whose breats God has expanded, by allowing them to confirm the truth in their hearts, to long for the means that lead to Him, and to adhere to the way of those possessing intellects by carefully minding the limits established by the divine law.
It is related that a desert Arab asked the Messenger saw,"Who is the best of all people?" He responded,"One who is blessed with a long life accompanied with good deeds." One given these two things, a long life filled with righteous deeds has truly been blessed.
What are the means that lead to God? Those means are all of the things that lead you, or draw you near, to God, Most High. Obeying His commandments, avoiding His prohibitions, reciting and acting on His scripture, engaging in His remembrance, worshipping Him as He commanded us to do on the basis of knowledge and truth, seeking the assistance of righteous, learned Muslims, sitting in the company of pious people, praying to God that He helps us; all of these are valid means that lead to God. Some scholars have described other means that might be deemed controversial. What we have mentioned here is sufficient, for cautiousness in dealing with controversial matters is one of the best manifestations of true religiosity.
God mentions in the Quran, 'O Believers! Be dutifully mindful of God and pursue the means that lead unto Him; strenuously exert yourselves for His sake in order to be successful.'
(Surah al-Maidah 5:35)
In this verse, we are minded that the essence of God-consciousness lies in leaving off harmful and forbidden things, even though the soul may have a deep craving for them. The essence of pursuing the means to God lies in doing those things He has commanded, even though the soul may find those things difficult and undesirable. Hence, we commanded to exert ourselves strenuously, because the path the believer walks in this world is a difficult one and one has to work arduously to remain on it.

The Reality
Allah swt (or God) is real....
Jannah (Paradise) is real....
Jahanam (Hell) is real....
The rewards are real.....
The punishment are also real....
and......
this world is not real....
Allah swt created this world (dunya) as an enjoyment to the non believers; a prison for the believers and a testing ground for those who do good works and are righteous.
Allah swt has been presenting so many of His manifest signs to mankind; warning us since 1400yrs ago.
What have we prepared for the life to come before us?

A lesson on patience
Friends around me had all becoming pregnant; some having their 1st, whilst others are having a 2nd. Even those who were married after me are already making their way to the hospitals for their ante-natal exercises and check-ups.
Time and time again, i repeat the same old statement in my head;"Don't worry, for Allah swt knows best, and He is the best of Planners." He knows better when is the time suitable for me to be a mommy. Maybe there's still a lot to improve about myself before i become a mother to my child.

And it isn't just a lesson on trust but on being truly patient and sincere, in what Allah swt has decreed upon.
We could only pray for Allah's guidance and blessings to be bestowed with pious and pure offspring. ameen.
