Maroon 5 Mujahid

Assalamualaikum...

On 9.3.2013 ago, a nasyid competition between classes were held in due to English Carnival. My class, 5 Mujahid, participated in this competition. We practiced in less than 2 days. Many obstacles that we faced.

       On Friday evening, after returning from Friday prayers, we had a practice. In that evening we could only have a training for the introduction. Then, that night we had a practice again. This is the time for our members who play instruments to practice. We practiced from 9 pm until 11 pm. On Saturday, on the day of the competition, we started our practice as early as 9 am. We practiced until 1 pm but no improvement is being shown. We took a break and continued the practice at 3 pm. Earlier, our class teacher, Madam Norliza asked us to perform in front of her, but we were not ready yet. We felt that we had disappointed our teacher. So, in the afternoon we practiced hard because just a few hours, the competition will be started. We practiced till 6.30 pm. We were looking forward to the competition...

       We had to drop a member because he had to practice drama and had no time to participate in training with us. But on the eve of the competition, he was present to support us.

        It's about time, we were the second group that will be performing. We made the perfomance to various elements of shock and our performances were very entertaining. Although we had the practice at the eleventh hour, alhamdulillah, with the performance we managed to get third place. We are very grateful. This is the power of last minute! Hehe..

Someone ate my rabbit.

Assalamualaikum :)

Morning :*

Do not disturb.

I used to have rabbits. I love rabbits. They are so cute. They make me happy every time I see them playing around between their siblings.

This is my cute little rabbits. Just look at their eyes :)

      My little brother and my giant brother are the starter to make rabbits as our pet. They plan to buy rabbits, not a rabbit because baby rabbit can't be produced from a rabbit but two rabbits. Hehe. So they buy the rabbits from my little brother's friend. Not so expensive. Affordable. Not so cheap. Reasonable. At that time, I don't care too much about what my two brothers wanted to do. Let them be.

     But, eventually  I realized that playing with rabbits makes me happier. I always feed them with bran. Morning... Afternoon... Evening... Night... Ups! I don't feed them at night. Hehe. Every time when my relatives or my family's friends come to my house, they'll be shown to our cute rabbits, playing with them, catch them and so on.

     My rabbits breed very quickly. Sometimes they produce many offspring. How happy I am when that time comes. But as the rabbits increases, the cost to buy their food is also increases. If I sketch  a graph, it would be a straight line passes through the origin because the cost to buy food is directly proportional to the rabbits. Hehe. Eventually my family and I are very busy. So, we have no time to feed the rabbits. We think that it is better to give the rabbits to other people.

     Fortunately, my brother has a friend that wants to make rabbits as a pet. So we gave them the rabbits. Baby rabbits.... We sent them to their new owner at Johor Bahru. My brother's friend seems happy after seeing the rabbits.

     After a few months, my brother asked his friend about the rabbits that we gave him.

     "Arnab kau sihat tak?"

     "Oh, arnab tu sihat je kat dalam ni."

Speak the truth even if your voice shakes


Sabda Rasulullah SAW yang bermaksud :

“Dari Abu Hurairah radhiallahuanhu, sesungguhnya Rasulullah Shallallahu’alaihi wasallam bersabda: Siapa yang beriman kepada Allah dan hari akhirat hendaklah dia berkata baik atau diam, siapa yang beriman kepada Allah dan hari akhirat hendaklah dia menghormati tetangganya dan barangsiapa yang beriman kepada Allah dan hari akhirat maka hendaklah dia memuliakan tetamunya.” (Riwayat Bukhari dan Muslim)

                                       


Sepasang suami isteri akan melancong ke luar negara. Sebelum bertolak, mereka memastikan rumah mereka berada dalam keadaan selamat untuk ditinggalkan selama seminggu.

     Teksi sudah menunggu di luar, ketika hendak menutup pintu rumah, tiba-tiba kucing jiran mereka meluru masuk.

     "Alamak! Sayang, tunggu dalam teksi dulu. Abang nak keluarkan kucing tu," suruh si suami.

     "Okey. Abang pastikan ya kucing itu keluar," kata si isteri sambil melangkah menuju ke teksi.

     Sebaik sahaja duduk di dalam teksi, wanita tersebut bekata: "Maaf buat pakcik tertunggu-tunggu pula."

     "Tak mengapa."

     Si isteri bimbang si pemandu teksi tahu rumah mereka ditinggalkan dan tidak berpenghuni, maka dia membuat helah: "Suami saya uruskan emak sekejap. Maklumlah orang tua."

     Pemandu teksi mengangguk.

     Kemudian si suami bergegas keluar dan memasuki teksi. Teksi mula bergerak menuju ke lapangan terbang.

     "Macam mana bang?"

     "Semua dah beres. Ada ke betina tu menyorok bawah katil. Abang pegang kaki dia, tarik keluar. Tapi, abang pula dicakarnya. Bedebah punya makhluk. Abang pegang dan lempar ia keluar ke laman belakang. Selesai!"

     Pemandu teksi yang mendengar kata-kata lelaki tersebut terkejut besar.
Kita selalu berkata perkataan atau ayat yang sebenarnya tidak perlu kita ungkapkan, perkataan yang lebih membawa kesan negatif daripada positif. Contoh yang diberi di atas adalah sebagai pengajaran supaya kita sentiasa bercakap benar. Sebenarnya dalam sketsa di atas juga kita boleh ambil iktibar supaya sentiasa bersangka baik, tetapi bersangka baik perlu pada tempatnya. Pemandu teksi tersebut tidak bertanya apa-apa pun tentang rumah pasangan suami isteri tersebut, jadi mengapa si isteri sibuk mengatakan perkara yang tidak sepatutnya dan tidak benar? Fikirkanlah...

Di sini saya nak membawa beberapa kisah tentang bercakap benar :

Kisah 1:

Kisah ini tentang seorang ulama' bernama Sheikh Abdul Kadir Al-Jailani, semasa beliau masih budak. Beliau ingin menuntut ilmu di kota Baghdad, lalu ibunya memberi 40 dinar sebagai nafkah belajar. Ibunya berpesan agar sentiasa bercakap benar. Di dalam perjalanan, tiba-tiba sekumpulan perompak merompak gerombolan kafilah yang disertai oleh beliau. Kemudian, perompak itu bertanya kepadanya, "Apa yang kau ada?", lalu dia menjawab, "Aku ada 40 dinar yang diberikan oleh ibuku". Si perompak ini terpana, sangat terkejut! "Kenapa kamu beritahu kami hal yang sebenar? 40 dinar bukanlah jumlah yang sedikit." Beliau menjawab, "Ibuku berpesan agar sentiasa bercakap benar." Ketua perompak yang mendengar jawapan Sheikh Abdul Kadir Al-Jailani itu, berasa sangat insaf, lalu bertaubat. Dan ketua perompak itu mengajak anak-anak buahnya untuk turut bertaubat.

Kisah 2:

Kita juga boleh mengambil pelajaran daripada kisah-kisah rakyat. Sebagai contoh, kisah tentang budak penggembala kambing yang menipu kambingnya dimakan oleh serigala. Pada kali pertama dan kedua dia menjerit meminta tolong tetapi ternyata dia hanya menipu. Namun apabila kali ketiga dia meminta tolong, dan benar-benar kambingnya hendak dimakan oleh serigala, tetapi orang lain tidak mempedulikan lagi jeritan meminta tolongnya kerana mereka telah hilang kepercayaan kepadanya, akibat daripada berkata bohong sebelum itu.
