I love you, but never met you



I'm really amazed by this beautiful poem. Its deeply meaningful. This poem and the spoken word video made me think....I'm impressed by the poem, the words are really beautiful and inspiring. Imagine during the prophet's time...it was a time of golden literature. It means that, a man (Arab land) could gain immense privilege and status by producing such a great work of literature. And the greatest literature ever is the Qur'an. It was an amazing work of Arabic poetry. SubhanaAllah!  


I love you, but never met you

I know everything about you,
I research you,
I looks into books to find out more about you,
I Google your name online,
And search small and big libraries for books about you.

Because they told me that you love me.

But

I confused because we never met.

How can you love someone you never met?

They told me that you conquered the Roman for me.
And send you best men to Persian to me.

You blood,
You fought, You a sworn-er and slaughtered
Your injured all this for me.

And how I can't love you?
Even though we haven't met.

And I told them,
that i dream every night,
And wish every day,
That one day....
Even for a fraction of a second
That my eyes could met yours,
And my hand could shake yours
And you let me drinks from your river

I read about your beauty
I heard about you were offered wealth, status and women,

But...
you declined them for me.

I heard that they send the children to throw stone at you
But you replied with patience and pray
I heard that they boycott you for thrice
Took your home
And drove you out of your birth place
The most beloved place to you heart

But

that wasn't enough...

So after you left secretly at night
They send their best men to track you down
And bring you back
To kill your dream for me

But

God protected you with the pigeon and the spider web
And when you arrived to safety
You stood all night
Cry and praying for me
Until tears drip from your beard
Just like water drip from a leaking tab

All this made you stronger,
And more determined to reach me

Years later....

They send an army of thousands men
To fight you
You stood with 300 men and one
Then they form a bigger army
And came back to finish you
But they couldn't

Their hate for you only increase,
But your love for me grew even more

Then they form allies against you
And betrayed you
And denied you the right to return to your homeland
And undermined you in their deals

But.... 

Because of your love for peace
Because of your love for virtue
Because of your love for me
You accepted their term
And agreed to their condition

People say Romeo and Juliet is The greatest love story of all

I said to them:
"how can that be?" 

When the man i love did all that for me
When the man i love sacrifice his life for me
The man i love gave everything he had for me
The man i love send armies to the east and the west so that i can be
The man i love teach me purpose in what i do

I know that he is my prophet
"I'm proud to say" 

He gave me confidence in the right way
For me was a perfect father,warrior and friend
The message of peace,love and justice
He would send,
To every man, woman and child in this world
And to every creation in the universe to

Are remind you that when a prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)
Was granted his supplication from Allah
And when he could have used it for himself

He saved it for his ummah 

He saved it for you 

I now know why i love him more than i love myself......

Tidak (sempurna) iman salah seorang kamu sehingga aku lebih dicintai dari orang tuanya, anaknya dan semua manusia lainnya.
(HR Bukhari dan Muslim) 


Such a profound hadis from the most beloved person Muhammad (Peace be upon him). Visit here to find out more about this hadis

A movie worth watching

I can really recommend this movie, watch it  :)

1. Valley of the Wolves: Palestine (2010)


3 komando turki dalam misi cari & bunuh (Search & kill) commander Israel yang bertanggungjawab dalam tragedi Gaza Freedom Flotila
Filem ni adalah sequel bagi 2 buah filem: temanya lebih kurang sama cuma tempat yang berbeza:  Valley of the Wolves: Iraq (2006) & Valley of the Wolves: Gladio (2009).














2. Five Minarets in New York (2010) 
Isu Islamphobia dan terrorist menjadi elemen utama dalam filem ni. 



Antara scene yang menarik dalam filem ni:

                         "There is only one irrefutable truth to every human, to be born and to die"

"To die is to join Allah"

p/s: Things to ponder - how is our preparation to meet him? -.-' Allah...




 Scene dalam masjid antara tok Imam & bapak polisi yang sangat-sangat skeptikal dengan Islam. Huh!
  
Imam: "Sir, this is a house of worship (Masjid). You can't just go in with your shoes on here & shout to people while they pray. Have some respect!"

FBI agent: "I have no respect, for the religion the gaps abetting comfort to our enemies"



Other scene:

"we can't treat all muslims like terrorists!"

"Anyone who's become involved in terrorism is no longer a muslim"

"You can't blame the whole muslim community for the actions of a few mad men."

"In 23 years as prophet, he fought only for 2 months"

2 filem ni memang ada kaitan secara langsung tentang Islam. (Palestine and terrorism)


P/s: looking forward to watch another turki's film,  Can't wait!...

Rancang Hidup, Rancang Wang

Alhamdulillah! Best & santai! (serius)
Buku yang berikan aku banyak idea-idea asas tentang putaran kehidupan
Bermula dari soal matlamat, dan halatuju hidup, kerjaya, perancangan duit poket, takaful, pelaburan, beli rumah, pendidikan awal anak-anak (terutama anak pertama), konsep rezeki, masalah kewangan, hingga isu ASB.

Itu buku terkini yang aku sedang kunyah lepas kenyang dengan kisah inspirasi lagi menyentuh emosi Buku Leaving Microsot to change the world.

Buku yang dimaksudkan adalah : 

Rancang Hidup Rancang Wang tulisan Hamdy [Haron Mohd Yusof. Ini belog beliau. 


 Credit to abang long. net sebab perkenalkan aku dengan buku ni. May Allah bless you!

Brother Hamdy berkongsi pengalaman hidup beliau dan beberapa idea praktikal berkaitan soal kerjaya, perancangan kewangan, pelaburan dan perlindungan, beli rumah, tips dan pendekatan mendidik anak dan konsep rezeki. Sungguh, banyak yang aku belajar dari buku 232 muka surat ni. 

Isi kandungannya bukanlah bersifat terlalu akademik sehingga memerlukan neuron-neuron otak anda  bekerja keras untuk menganalisis dan mengekstrak isi-isi tersurat bagai. Anda juga tak perlukan kamus Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary untuk faham istilah-istilah yang di gunakan dalam buku ini.

Penulis menggunakan bahasa yang mudah dan santai. Malah idea - ideanya bersifat surface dan ringkas namun sangat penting sebagai panduan untuk permulaan hidup. Terutama bagi mereka yang baru mencecah umur 20-an. [macam aku]

Antara bab yang paling aku suka baca adalah tentang bagaimana Brother Hamdy dan isteri beliau mendidik anak-anak sejak mereka lahir sampailah umur 16 tahun. Pendekatan mereka mengajar anak-anak menghafaz ayat-ayat Quran bagiku sangat menarik untuk di pelajari. Alhamdullilah, kesannya anak-anak beliau berjaya menghafaz antara 12-15 juzuk. 
*ouch!....snap on my face. aku juga kena lebih akrab dengan Quran.. -.-'

Antara ayat feveret beliau yang aku suka.

"Jangan salahkan isteri bila anak tidak perform; selalunya ramai suami yang mengatakan kepada isteri..

'Tu laa you...tu sebab anak jadi begini......' 

Itu adalah ungkapan paling bodoh kerana pemegang saham syarikat tidak akan menyalahkan manager, yang disalahkan ialah CEO syarikat apabila syarikat tidak perform" 
pg: 150

Mahu tahu lebih? eloklah baca buku ni. ok

Meow!
