A Righteous Woman

Assalamualaikum my blessed sisters...

  I'd like to share my opinion about 'A Righteous Woman'.

I remember one of the authentic hadith of Prophet Muhammad (May Allah's  Peace Be Upon Him). He said:

"The whole world is pleasure, and the best pleasure of the world is the righteous woman." (Muslim)

A Righteous Muslimah is one who always behave well towards her husband. She loves her husband for the sake of Allah, obeys his commands, makes him happy every time he looks at her. A righteous wife is not going to burden her husband with a variety of demand. She always willingly accepts whatever given by her husband.

Don't Give Up on Allah's Mercy

Assalamualaikum warahmatullah wabarakatuh
My dear blessed sisters...

Allah's mercy and help are indeed very close, if only we just want to pray and put our trust in Him.

This actually just happened to me. This morning, I left home for uni at 8.00 am. Usually it only takes an hour to reach the uni. When I was on my way to uni, I got stuck in a very heavy traffic. Well, traffic is kind of common in some parts of my city. But what made this 'extraordinary' was I got stuck almost half an hour on the way which was usually 'free from traffic'. It did get better. I also had an exam today at 10.00 am and the lecturer was the meanest lecturer I've ever met at uni, which made my day seemed complete.

ASYIKNYA BERLIBUR SAMBIL BELAJAR DI KAMPUNG INGGRIS PARE

Berita Fiture oleh Siti Fatimah

Sambil menyelam minum air, nampaknya peribahasa ini cocok untuk menggambarkan apa yang saya alami selama 2 minggu di kampung inggris Pare, Kediri pada liburan tahun lalu. Tak hanya refreshing untuk melepas penat, Kampung Inggris Pare juga menawarkan paket “wisata pendidikan” yang unik dan menarik. 

Pertama kali mendengar nama ‘Kampung Inggris’, rasa penasaran saya langsung tergelitik. Apakah itu kampung yang dihuni oleh orang inggris? Rasa penasaran saya terjawab ketika kakak saya sendiri (yang saat itu baru lulus sekolah dan ingin melanjutkan ke perguruan tinggi) pergi ke Kampung Inggris Pare atas rekomendasi dari sahabatnya. Saking bentahnya, kakak saya sampai menghabiskan waktu satu tahun lebih disana. Sepulangnya dari Kampung Inggris, saya sempat dibuat amazed dengan kefasihan kakak saya dalam berbahasa Inggris (maklum, sebelumnya kakak saya tidak begitu mahir berbahasa Inggris). 

Usut punya usut, ternyata kemahiran bahasa Inggrisnya diperoleh dari kunjungannya ke Kampung Inggris Pare. “Di satu kampung itu ada banyaaaaak banget tempat  kursus bahasa Inggris.  Dari anak-anak, remaja, orang dewasa bahkan tukang pecel sekalipun hampir semuanya bisa bahasa Inggris. Jangan takut kalo nggak bisa sama sekali (bahasa Inggris), karena disana tuh diajarin dari dasar banget. Gimana nggak cepet bisa, orang dari bangun tidur sampai mau tidur lagi wajib pake bahasa Inggris.” Ungkapnya antusias. 

Dear My Future 'Imam'...

By: Fatima Zahra

O my future imam...

I may not know who you are.

I may not know where you're from.

But I don't care…

I'm sure someday Allah will let me know about you.

I'm sure you're the best that Allah has chosen for me.

I'm sure Allah will allow me to meet you on the right time.

Oh the owner of my rib...

Whoever you are...

I promise, 

If I found you, I would love you eternally because of Allah.

I would always obey your commands.

I would stay by your side, no matter what.

And keep this love till the end of time.

A Peal In Its Shell

By : Fatima Zahra

“Hey, Sarah! How are you doing?” Lucy’s voice surprised me. I was about to leave my class when she came. Her lovely hair and glowing skin appeared. She was definitely beautiful.

“Good, Alhamdulillah! And you?” I answered while giving her a smile.

“I’m cool. Where are you going?”

“I’m going to the mosque. You want to join?" I ask her 

“Oh come on! Mosque? That’s boring. You’d better follow me to Glenn’s party. It’s going to be fun!”

“No, thanks. It’s more important rather than going to Glenn’s party.”

“Well, it’s alright then. See ya.” Lucy said while waving her hands.

To You Whom I Miss

By: Fatima Zahra

O you whom I always miss,
Your face never depicted on the canvas of my life
Your smile never crossed my imagination
Even your name never carved in my heart

O you who always disturbs my inner peace,
Who are you?
Don't you know how restless I am?
Every time I longing for you
When are you going to pick me up?

O you who paralyzes my heart,
Never had I know who you are
I couldn't guess where you're from or what you're doing there.
But I am sure you're always with Him
Keeping your love for Him to love me later only for the sake of Him.

O you who always haunts my nights...
