Speakers :

1) Bro Yussamir

2) Bro Rahmat

3) Bro Mujahid

4) Bro Shah Kirit

5) Bro Edry

6) Bro Masyuri

I want to write/type as long short as possible, thank you.

As the above title suggests, I'd like to call upon my fellow friends, especially Muslims to attend this FCR programme whenever you have the chance.

Why, you might ask, it being a must?

FCR has definitely strengthen the faith that I have in Islam. Understanding Islam in different ways has broaden my perspective in knowing Islam better. In all the slots in FCR, you'll get to see that Islam is very very truly wonderful, ya know!

One example. Do you know that there is mentioned of One God in the Bible and the Brahma Sutra in Hinduism? Why, it clearly tells us that the True God, is the One and Only. And oh, being a science- stream student, I am more than happy when there's a slot of Science and the Quran. It just blows you off to see the SIGNS in His verses which has been said by Him for 1400 years ago, but has only been newly found by the scientists of our age. Example, Ami's blog.

 To know the reasons for every single thing that Allah asks of us is marvelous! Please refer to Nabilah's blog for more info on this. One more thing. In one of the slots in the programme, you get to learn and read the Bible. Yes, that's right. READ BIBLE. That's where you'll see how the Quran is so protected, pure and contains beautiful words of ALLAH.

So there! You just gotta go to FCR if you were to have any chance of attending it, my friend. It won't be a waste, I'll promise you that.Inshallah, you'll be more sure of Islam and will be more aware of what have you done as a muslim. As Bro Shah puts it, " Be a muslim by CHOICE, not by chance".

Yosh! Phase 2, here I come! 

P/S: To the organizers and the speakers(though they're not reading my blog), a million of thanks for you guys! Jazakallah...=D. May Allah repay your deeds.

Sensitive Heart

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.


Hadith 27
Al-Nawwas bin Sam'an, radiyallahu 'anhu, reported that the Prophet, sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam, said:

"Righteousness is good character, and sin is that which wavers in your heart and which you do not want people to know about."

[Muslim]

According to Wabisah bin Ma'bad, radiyallahu 'anhu, who said:

I came to the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam, and he said: "You have come to ask about righteousness ?" " Yes," I answered. He said: "Consult your heart. Righteousness is that about which the soul feels tranquil and the heart feels tranquil, and sin is what creates restlessness in the soul and moves to and fro in the breast, even though people give you their opinion (in your favour) and continue to do so."

[A good hadith transmitted from the Musnads of the two Imams, Ahmad bin Hanbal and Al-Darimi] 

How can I be aware of Ghazwul Fikr(psychological warfare) if I were to sit idly and do nothing at all?

Answer: Aha! A sensitive heart can help me. =D

One of the agents of GF is Shaitan. It'd no good if we keep falling into his traps and whispers,eh? His whispers which caused doubts in ourselves whenever we're about to do good. Reflecting back to myself, do I spontaneously agree when someone invite me to watch movie or play "PW" ? Do I do the same when I am invited to usrah or ceramah by Pakcik? And, if I were in the position of choosing either one, which one would I choose?

Having a sensitive heart can help you to do just that!If I had a more sensitive heart, I'd be -without a doubt- choosing to do the good deeds. I'd be more aware of Shaitan's evil whisperings because my heart would keep saying a BIG NO whenever I'm about to do sins. Somehow, it triggers uneasiness in myself whenever I want to do bad bad bad stuffs. ALLAH has already explained why we'd feel such thing in the Quran. (49:7)

If I were to be insensitive enough of my heart's protest, I'd be doomed, I'll tell you that. Not only I'd be easily tricked into Shaitan's tricks, I'd be also feeling nothing when I do sins.

Naudzubillah min zalik.

Remember that ALLAH's the One in control of everything, including Shaitan. Seek His help whenever you're in doubt of yourself and if you keep falling into Shaitan's evil doings. Verily, ALLAH is All-Hearing and know that, He's very near to you.(50:16)
