Welcome to the Family




Salam.
17th July 08, the date when my friend, formally, officially, and legaly became my cousin-in-law.
Suhail got married this day, with my cousin Hasanah bte Khairuddin.

Honestly, I was happy, because one of ikhwah here has joined my big family. And I always think that he would be one of families that could help us run this group for Islam, insyaAllah, with the Prophet's way.

Before, I was jealous, when I heard, that some ikhwah had many ikhwahs in their families, and including ustaz2 mesir (yang mantap2), because they at least must have something to be together with, to be striving with, to be discussed, together, because we know, that we are brothers and ikhwah.

I thanked God, for His plan. He put Suhail (one of my closed friends since years - doing things together, crying together, laughing together) in my big family, I know He knows best. Maybe one or two or more of our family members didn't really agree to this marriage, but sincerely, this is one of the step of tawakkal in dakwah. We may not know what will come, but we put things at its right.

To Suhail, I just hope that you will remain calm and just nice to my cousin and get connected with our family members in Malaysia, insyaAllah.

To my cousin, Hasanah, I just hope that you will be a solehah wife, and will be more understanding to Suhail.

One quote for you two ; Man needs to be understood, and woman needs to be loved. Suhail, don't try to understand her, just love her. Hasanah, don't try to just love him, but understand him is just enough for a man.

Afterall, I hope you two will be forever and hereafter be together, and more important, together in da'wah, which is thing you just agree together.

Salam.

PMPI 08 : Memories of Brothers

Salam.
ISMAmesir Summer Camp 08.
Jamasoh, Mansoura.
Theme : Ceria dan Seronok Hidup Bersaudara.
Two main objectives that I could notice are = Feel the happiness of Ukhuwwah, and Knowing the Syumuliatul Islam, includes camping, swimming, playing together etc.


Opening ceremony. PMPI (Perkhemahan Musim Panas ISMAmesir)
Right = Akh Shuhaib Ar-Rumy (Pengerusi ISMAmesir penggal 08)
Left = Akh Salman Al-Farisi (Setiausaha ISMAmesir penggal 08)


Sampai di Jamasoh pukul 1 petang. Bilangan ikhwah lebih kurang 100 org, termasuk AJK. Kalau tak silap. Kumpulanku mempunyai seramai 9 ahli kumpulan. Nama kumpulan yang kami beri, adalah Hanzolah / Handzalah.

Kumpulan kami terdiri daripada 3 org 'ustaz' dan 6 org 'doktor'.
Ustaz-ustaz itu adalah = Syamil (Ketua), Ihsan, Syahiid.
Dan doktor-doktor itu adalah = Ihsan, Hafiz, Affan, Azizi, Kimie, Asyraf.


Kami memilih tema "Mess with One, Mess with All".




Ahli-ahli kumpulan sangat-sangat bermotivasi dan bekerjasama dengan mantap dan penuh semangat. Beberapa aktiviti yang dianjurkan sangat-sangat menguji ukhuwwah kami. Antaranya, Ular Tangkap Ekor, Police and Thief (duck version), Makan Tembikai Kena Suap, dan lain-lain, banyak sangat acara-acara ukhuwwah yang best-best. Tapi kalau cerita semua, tak best la kan.








Pada malam pertama, BBQ. Hehe. Itu la kot aktiviti yang paling orang nantikan sebab makan sedap. Esoknya banyak nya kepada aktiviti-aktiviti pantai, dan mandi manda.








Program kali ini sangat-sangat bergantung kepada kumpulan itu sendiri untuk mendapat manfaat daripada apa yang pihak penganjur mahukan. Alhamdulillah kumpulan Hanzolah melazimi sembang menyembang dan selalu berkumpul untuk bersama-sama bermuhasabah dan refleksi terhadap apa yang diperoleh daripada aktiviti-aktiviti yang dibuat. Kebersamaan kami, 'rasanya' mungkin lebih daripada kumpulan lain. Kami meyakini bahawa kebersamaan atau ma'iyyah itu sangat-sangat membantu dalam memantapkan lagi ukhuwwah di antara kita.





Pada malam terakhir kami, seperti biasa, mesti penganjur adakan persembahan. Malam Seni Budaya. Kami melakonkan keadaan beberapa orang ahli selepas 20 tahun PMPI 08 ini, bagaimana akhirnya kami boleh menangis terkenang ukhuwwah yang terukir dengan pengalaman dan susah-senang yang kami hadapi bersama di Jamasoh ini. Pertemuan yang hanya mungkin 2-3 hari ini sudah mampu kami mengekalkan ikatan suci akidah ini sehingga ke tahapan tahun ke 20. Tapi sayangnya pada malam itu, sepertinya rezeki kami bukan seperti yang kami maksudkan. Kami mendapat turutan yang terakhir daripada 8 lapan buah kumpulan. Dan kami ada juga tersilap dan tersasul dalam lakonan dan nasyid. Tapi takpe, kami redha dengan takdir Ilahi. Mungkin pengajaran untuk ketua kot. Adeh!










Satu slot ilmiah dalam program ini adalah pada hari terakhir iaitu slot ISK (Ini Sejarah Kita) yang dibentangkan oleh Akh Salman Abd Rahman. Beliau mengulas sejarah Islam dari mula hingga ke hari ini, kenaikannya, kegemilangannya, kejatuhannya, tokoh-tokohnya, segalanya diceritakan secara kronologi dan menarik.






Slot terakhir adalah sesi bergambar. Nanti insyaAllah akan dimasukkan ke dalam blog ini.



Ni gambar nak packing barang utk balik ke Kairo.


Hanzolah Group.


Awards that this group got ;


1. The Best Leader


2. The Best Participant = Abd Syahiid Syafruddin


3. The 3rd Best Group. from 8 groups.


Alhamdulillah.


We learnt, that ukhuwwah is not words, talks, speeches, movies, but ukhuwwah could just show it's true shape when it's practical. We got tested, and so many we crossed together, may Allah bless us, for this never ending ukhuwwah, that we meet in His shade in the hereafter.


May our ukhuwwah remains forever, till we meet our Lord.


See ya next time, brothers.


I just want to say, I love you all.


So, that's all that I can blog here. Want some more? Just get yourselves involved in next year's PMPI. InsyaAllah we'll meet there.

A Point of Updating Blog

Salam to all.
Good condition? Alhamdulillah.

My sis asked me to update. So I think I could do her favour.
Just don't really know what to update *simple boring saying of bloggers

So my next activites ;
1. ISMA Summer Camp 5-7 July 08 - Mansurah
2. Akad Nikah = Akh Suhail Sufian & Hasanah Khairudin 19 July 08 - Cairo
3. Tanta's planning & activities.
4. Join the Musabaqah Quran in Sayyeda Zainab, Cairo. (Thanx to Hafiz Abd Rahman, for inviting me, and helping me for the registration)

So my planning =
1. Talaqi Quran
2. Specialise in Seerah
3. Specialise in IM - knowledge, methodology, action!
4. Reading books, that I bought in Book Fair, Cairo. (need to have a schedule)
5. Jaulah & Rehlah & Ziarah
- Alex, Dumyatt (Damietta), Pyramid, and.. Holland (evil laugh to Alak and Imang) kalau ada rezki. So miss my Luqman and Iqbal.
5. Capturing people.. hehe. Need to collect so many baits.

So then,
Thanx and jazakumullahu khairan kathiira, to those who wished for my 21st Birthday. My family members and friends. Sorry for not replying the SMSes. Nothing's so special. One thing, maybe special, because the date is in the middle year 1st July. Rasenye la kalau tak silap..
if that's so, so I think I was born to be a 'pertengahan' person, maybe, or simple, or basaathoh (I so hope so) ameen.

And to those who don't have the chance to wish, maybe out of reach or whatsoever, I really think that you must be praying for me. I really appreciate that.

Afterall, I've never asked to be remembered. Just having you all in my mind and heart is wonderful enough for me.

p/s : Words and theories maybe are not worth to be talked much without deeds, or tiring things but it is just enough to give someone something they just didn't have / notice / realize.

p/s : I think I have to change my profile, /swt, since 2004 never changed the layout and backgrounding things. haha. I sense a smell of loyalty. Well, maybe. Credits to Thaaqhib.

It's good, whatever it is.


Salam to all.
