Smile While Looking Back

Aran Island (Inis Mor)

رَبَّنَا مَا خَلَقْتَ هَٰذَا بَٰطِلًا سُبْحَٰنَكَ فَقِنَا عَذَابَ ٱلنَّارِ
"Our Lord, You did not create this aimlessly; exalted are You [above such a thing]; then protect us from the punishment of the Fire'' (Ali Imran:191)*

Alhamdulillah. It has been a year since I enroll medical school in UCC, Ireland. This time last year I was still indecisive on where and which university I wanted to pursue my study. Looking back, I only manage to carve a smile on things that I've been through on this journey. Surely, I am nothing without Him. Thank you Allah. I'm starting to see the blessings in disguise. :)

A year had passed and currently I'm at the junction of the road. I don't want to come back but want to go further. Biizinillah I'll pass it through..


*My friend shared this prayer when we went for jaulah last time :) So lets recite it especially when seeing His beautiful creation

Love,
Atikah

Repost - Travelogue: Jabal Rumat, Medina

A repost from my facebook :)




Jabal Rumah; sebuah bukit kecil di hadapan Bukit Uhud. Disinilah tempat pemanah2 semasa perang Uhud ditempatkan dengan arahan Rasulullah saw supaya kekal di atas bukit. Tempat ni boleh tahan panasnya. Terfikir keseorangan, kalau berada ditempat pemanah2 tersebut, harta-harta di depan mata tentunya sangat menggoda jiwa lebih2 lagi di bawah terik matahari sebegitu. Allah.. Besarnya ujian mereka. Mutawif kami di Madinah sempat berpesan supaya selalu berdoa 


رَبَّنَا وَلَا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا 
Wahai Tuhan kami! janganlah Engkau bebankan kepada kami bebanan yang berat sebagaimana yang telah Engkau bebankan kepada orang-orang yang terdahulu daripada kami.(Al Baqarah:286)

Semoga kita semua tsabat untuk mencari redhaNya inshaAllah
