unexpectedly

assalamualaikum!

tak tau nak letak title apa.. huhu..

anyway, i've been thinking about death a lot lately.
siap mimpi mimpi lagi.

apa tak nya.. lately we've been hearing, reading and watching a lot of news, near and far, containing deaths.

yesterday, my friends were sharing about a dear person whose life was taken in a car crash.
i don't know this girl personally, have never met her nor heard of her met her at udey's wedding though*,   but the news deeply affected me to tears.

it's a weird thing how we can cry over people we don't know. speaking generally.

perhaps it's because i could feel her loss.
she was about my age, will be getting married & just finished her studies, and she was on her way to a photography job (she's a part time photographer).

memang reminder terbesar: Mati Itu Pasti.
bila? Allah saje yang tahu.

those who have known her would describe her the same way: she's talented and she's super sweet.
she wasn't just a photographer, but she was also a daie and a good friend to many.
goes to show.. character, personality, akhlaq - they stick in people's minds. for me yang tak kenal dia pun boleh rasa sedih, apatah lagi orang yang betul betul kenal dia.

i have tremendous respect for her, and i pray for her and all of our brothers and sisters within our own country, Egypt, Syria, Palestine, Rohingya, and all over the world, who dedicated their last moments in this lifetime to berjihad, to 'amar makruf, nahi mungkar'.


as a reminder for us all,

Surah Ali 'Imran, ayat 185:

Every soul will taste death, and you will only be given your [full] compensation on the Day of Resurrection. So he who is drawn away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise has attained [his desire]. And what is the life of this world except the enjoyment of delusion.

extra note, Jihad means to strive or struggle for the sake of Allah and it comes in many forms:

• Jihad of the Heart (inner struggle against nafsu/evil)
• Jihad by the Tongue (dakwah, tutup aib orang, ...)
• Jihad by the pen/knowledge (sharing knowledge, learning, ...)
• Jihad by the hand (charity, helping others, ...)
• Jihad by the sword (self-defense)

all of course, ikut sunnah =)

and i think we all wondered this: who will be praying for me when i die?

or is it just me.. ehem...

may we be among the syahid. may we be in syurga Firdaus.
amiiin

and i hope if ever i ada tercakap or terbuat something whether face to face atau pun dalam blog ni yang tak menenangkan hati korang, please maafkan.. kekadang tak perasan.. sorry sangat sangat.. ='(

ps: please kalau ada gambar arwah (your relative ke, kawan ke, pape la) yang tak tutup aurat, atau ada kisah kisah diorang yang orang masih gembar gemburkan, tolong stop kan, tolong delete kan. tutup kan lah aib mereka yang dah meninggal.

kita tutup aib orang, Allah tutup aib kita in sha Allah.

*edited. i have met her rupanya. ya Allah.. sedih tambah geram sebab boleh terlupa!! wuwu.. harap2 dimaafkan.. thank you sangat sangat sis haniza & filza sebab ingatkan!!
