Happy

Okay it's time to go back to bright side of the world. Where the grass is always green, the sun is always shining and the birds are always chirping in early Sunday morning that makes you want to own an air rifle just to shoot them up so they will go away. Haha. Just kidding.

Why I have to be happy?

1. I have to be happy because I have someone that I can relate to. My families, my friends, my neighbours, my colleagues and my boss (rolling eyes). Those are the people around me who cherish my day and makes me feel not so bad at the end of the day.

2. I have to be happy because I can have all the things in the world that I wanted to. Car, house, money, food, clothes. You name it. The list will go on and on and on. Well, some people say material would not make you happy. Some say it will. I think, it depends on your financial status and how you define happiness.

3.I have to be happy for I have accomplished something. Be it defeating the final boss in Final Fantasy Game or completed a big project that my boss asked me to do. The bigger the challenge the happier and the wider the smile I got on my face.

But...okay hold your breath for this...

4. I have to feel happy because I still have this breath. The movement of my chest going up and down is actually a dance of joy to commemorate the chance given to me so that I can enjoy all those things that I mentioned earlier.

hey...why don't you check this Ahmad Bukhatir vid titled Last Breath

and the last of all. This will make me happier like I am the king of the world.

5. I have to be happy because I have Islam.(I don't have to explain this, do I?)

Sad

It is sad to see Muslims nowadays does not act the way Muslims should act. People start to behave like they didn't have control over their life. Well, there are a few things that we can't control. I'm talking about things that we, as a human beings, gifted with great mind, should be able to control. We can control how we act. We can control what we eat. We can control what to say or what to see. So here are few things that make me sad as a Muslim.

1. Smokers

Don't care if you are active or mildly active, but the thing that you do is just wrong and impermissible. First of all, you risking you health and more than that you are jeopardizing the rest of the people around you. People, stay away from smokers if they don't want to stay away from you. Don't you know that there is a fatwa saying that smoking is Haram. Or you just trying to be an ignorant fool. Moreover, even ustaz is among the heavy duty smokers. The one who teach kids about Islam and yet, they are the one who do the sinful act. Can you believe that? Can you believe that?


2. Musicians and Dancers

I know, it's almost the end of the world. Even muslim are behaving like non-muslim. They sing and dance like there is no tomorrow. There are limitation in singing and dancing in Islam. In Malaysia, it sadly to see that young generation is overwhelmed with this music thing. Major contestants of singing reality tv show is Muslim or Muslimah. I mean what on earth are they doing on the stage. They are not even near good vocal if you know what I mean. And the worst thing of all, their parents, yes their parents, wearing tudung (hijab) and all covering up, just let their kids jumping around and screaming like crazy people on the stage, performing their talents so that everyone can clap their hands. And you know what. The saddest of all, the clappers and the big applause and the standing ovation are all coming from Muslim audience. If i think about it, it's just make me sick. And it happens in Malaysia who claims that Islam is our official religion. Wake up Malaysian! Wake up.


3. Gamblers

For you who like to queue up to enter the gate of hell, i just want to say, i don't have any idea on what you are doing. It is sick to see Muslim brothers lining up in a lottery shop to buy a lottery ticket. Do you know that it is Haram to eat from money sourced from winning lottery. What do you expect from Haram money. It does not even have barakah at all. May Allah protect us from consuming Haram things. Dear gamblers, have a pity for your family if you don't have pity for yourself. Don't drag your family with you to the hellfire. Drag yourself in. It's less burdening that way. I know, we live in material world. Money is not everything!


4. Mat Rempits

Okay, if you are Malaysian, you know what I am talking about. These young kids really piss off everyone. They ride like a pro but they die like frog. Splat on the road. Okay, we know your skill. You good. Even better than pro like Rossi. But can you consider this. You are killing yourself! Okay, minor accident may not be a slap on you face. If you die on the road, on that red spot, there is no slap on the face anymore. It's a one way ticket to the graveyard. Okay, good activity such as reading, exercising, praying sounds like so boring to you. Try find a good job. Stay away from the rempit thing. You are better without that.


5. The Gender Confuse

Yes I know. You do not wish to be born like that. Girl stuck in boy's body and boy stuck in girl's body. Okay, it's a complicate thing to discuss. But hear this, Allah created us with purpose. And that purpose is only to worship Him. Do not question why you are like this and that. The answer has already been given to you. So stop pretending someone that you are not. Your instinct may be unexplainable. Only Allah knows what is best. He will not burden you unless you can take that burden. So, be strong. Don't get carried away by nafsu and people around you. It's okay to be gentle or rough as long as you are not crossing the line. And for the rest of us, don't be too judgmental. We are not perfect. I am not perfect. So, stop being so prejudice about them. They are human being like us. We need to approach them with care and compassion. Not fear and ridicule. They need to be told and they need to understand. What they did such as men behaving like woman and vice versa is wrong. It's wrong in Islam.


I write and I reflect to myself. I don't like what you do. But I respect you. You know why? Because what you will be tomorrow maybe better than what I am today.

5 coolest things I should try today!!

1. Stop cursing

I do not know what's wrong with people nowadays. It seems that we can live without cursing, bad-mouthing or harassing someone. Be it a stranger or people that we know around us. Is it in our blood to produce faulty language that somehow lead to inner satisfaction or expression? or we just like to belittle a person and end the argument with some nasty words.The culture or the so called 'in' right now is actually something really bad.I mean, people just considered cursing is normal. It's considered cool and normal to bad-mouthing someone as people around did the same thing too.Do we just agree with that? Take a step back and think about it. You are much cooler than that.


2. Stop blaming

'Hey, it's not my fault, it's his'.Yes, sounds familiar isn't it? We all like to blame someone for something that really considered not our fault. We all just gonna plunged into a drama of never ending episodes if we start the blaming thing. Look, the person who did a wrong things has something that the others do not. It's called 'guilt'. Have you heard it? So basically, it's pointless to blame someone who already knew that he is guilty. No matter how hard you gonna try, heshe will never admit. Thus, we come across the term 'ego'. So 'ego' and 'guilt' sometimes can be seen as best friends forever. Stop blaming. Focus on solving. You are wasting tonnes kilojoules of energy by participating in blaming campaign.


3. Stop complaining

Okay, complain, complain, complain. That just human nature. We never feel satisfied for what we have been given. It's not enough and it will never be enough. [The world is not enough is playing on the background]. Sometimes i complain about weather. Sometimes i complain why bad things happen to me. Sometimes i complain why i don't have this and that. Well guess what, what happen to you is nothing compared to those who live in Palestine or Africa or somewhere in Ulu Segan. For those who can access the internet ,which considered alien technology by tribes who live somewhere in Bhutan, it's called a blessing. Yes, when you are typing this blog, half of the world population is hoping for proper food and shelter. Yet, you considered yourself inadequate in many ways. Hah! think about that. You ungrateful homo sapiens!


4. Stop daydreaming

People dreams about successful career, big houses, finding the best spouse and so on. Do 'death' is considered in one of you contingency plan? Well if you don't have it, it's time to make one. It's okay to dream big. There is no one pulling you from having a million dollar dream. But you have to remember this. There is always a big chance you are going to collapse and end up in cemetery after reading this blog. Well, i'm just saying that there is a possibility. Remember don't let the material world blinded you from the hereafter.


5. Start praying

Why we need to pray? Ask yourself why you pray? For me it's the only visible act that connect me to my creator. As a human, we're designed with one major flaw which is forgetfulness. We tend to forget everything from the day we born till the time we read this line. Sometimes, we just forgot that we are created solely to pray to our creator. Nothing more and nothing less.
