"Anybody who believes in Allah and the Last Day should not harm his neighbour, and anybody who believes in Allah and the Last Day should entertain his guest generously and anybody who believes in Allah and the Last Day should talk what is good or keep quiet (i.e. abstain from all kinds of evil and dirty talk)." - Sahih Al-Bukhari
I can still remember, when we first placed our deposit for our new home, I was asked "Don't you want to know whom your neighbours are?"
I was like.."er, is that really important?"
What a silly question, isn't it?
Well, fast forward...
One year plus since we moved in to our own house.
We are happy for the fact that we are blessed to have good neighbours.
Wish it always be...
Many times I heard & saw by myself conflicts between neighbours..
Tolerance.. is the best policy to tackle this (in my humble opinion)

This morning, I had a good conversation with my wife.
Initially, we planned to have our breakfast at Restoran Puteri in TTDI, co-owned by Habsah Hassan & Rubiah Suparman before proceed to a playground somewhere around there. Quite some time I did not bring Amierah for an outing.
As Ziyad is yet to be even 2 months, definitely a no-no to bring him to crowded places, shopping mall for an example...
(umi's favourite place..hehe..)
Well, back to the subject matter. We chatted basically on blogging. To be exact my own blog.
While I think sometimes that I had crossed the line, my wife begged to differ.
I must admit, I started blogging for the sake of my free time. Writing somehow a therapy for me while undergoing operation & chemotherapy session. At the same time, by sharing my moment, may help few who need some info regarding cancer. For some people, cancer is an alien. So, it might be good to know in more leisure approach. (If you google on cancer, mostly are 'heavy' articles & you will never understand a sentence!!)

Day by day, I do not only share solely on my cancer experience.
It evolved & suddenly become my diary. Some of those stories which I should not share publicly. (Do you let people read your own diary, if you have any?)
Hmm, the conclusion is (I like to have a conclusion for even a short conversation, unlike some 2-3 hours meeting without one)
..if it happen that I did crossed the line, I always have my wife to remind me. You, too, can advise me to do so.
And I promise you, the posting will be removed in no time!!
Would that be a wonderful conclusion?
Thus, if you find any posting deemed unnecessary is still here, please tell me so.
Coz, I may think it should be shared, as my gesture that I do care...
Saban tahun, kita sambut Maulidur-Rasul...
Ada yg berarak, dengar ceramah kat masjid...mahupun sekadar menonton tv...
Elok juga sekarang ni, tv9, astro oasis & tv alhijrah pun semakin berlumba2 utk menampilkan yg terbaik...
semoga semakin hari semakin byk pengisian yg bermanfaat, mengganti drama2, filem2 yg 'kosong' dari segi batinnya...
Pendek kata, mcm2 pendekatan utk kita lebih menghayati kelahiran junjungan Agung Muhammad..
Harapannya, setiap apa yg kita lakukan, dgn niat yg benar2 ikhlas akan diterima Allah jua..
Semoga, saban tahun semakin dalamlah sayang kita pada Rasul Al-Amin, semakin banyak pula pengetahuan tentang perjalanan hidup baginda & bertambah kuat + bersemangat utk kita mengamalkan sunnahnya...Amin, Amin, Amin......

Aku 'mengenali' Maher Zain agak lewat berbanding rakyat2 Malaysia yg lain secara puratanya...
Setelah menghayati lagu2nya, teryata ada 'jiwa' dlm setiap lirik2 yg diucapkannya..
Semoga Maher Zain terus berkarya & mudah-mudahan akan ada seseorang sepertinya di kalangan Muslim di Malaysia..
Pertama kali aku melihat klip video "The Chosen One", sangat tersentuh (perlukah aku disclose bahawa menitis air mata ini..opss, I already did!!)
Namun, sehingga kini, aku masih belum dpt menangkap setiap maksud 'scene' yg digambarkan itu..
Harap ada yang dapat berkongsi...apa2 yg aku tertinggal..lantaran ceteknya ilmu di dada..
"I pray to be close to you on that day...and see you smile when you see me"
Scene 1
Seorang jiran menaburkan sampah sarap. 'Dia' tidak bertindak balas. Kalau kita, jangankan sampah, mungkin benda lain yg teruk yang kita campakkan kembali...
Scene 2
Gambaran kehidupan 'dia' di tengah2 kejahilan puak Arab..berjudi merompak etc...
Kini, kehidupan kita bagaimana? Adakah tumpang sekaki dgn perangai Arab Jahiliah??
Scene 3
'Dia' memberikan sedekah kepada orang tua melalui perantara...
Ibaratnya memberi tangan kanan, tangan kiri tak tahu...
Orang zaman sekarang, baru bersedekah lebih kurang, 'mock cheque' dah sebesar pintu...
Scene 4
'Dia'menjahit sendiri sandal yg koyak utk tidak membebankan isteri..
Ambillah iktibar, cubalah tolong mana2 'chores' yg termampu..
Scene 5
Membiarkan anak kecil bermain ketika bersolat..Jangan dimarahi pula, anak2 seusia 2-6 tahun tidak mengerti apa2.
Kitalah yg perlu menunjuk jalan..bukan dgn jalan meningking, apalagi memukul atau lebih teruk..mendera..
Scene 6
Bermain bersama anak2...
Scene 7
Bola jatuh...kemudian dibuang..hmmm, just can't get it...
Scene 8
Memberi minum kepada seekor anjing..Ada sebuah kisah dahulu di mana seorang pelacur yg memberi minum anjing lantas diganjari syurga...
Masya-Allah...
Scene 9
Berlumba lari dgn isteri...Malah membiarkan isteri menang..
Moga kita pun akan turut mudah mengalah utk waktu2 yg tertentu..
Scene 10
Membantu orang tua (eagerly, swiftly)...Very straight forward..
Tapi kita, kadang2 tunggu orang lain..kadang2 malu pulak tu, takut org mengata...hmmmmm
Scene 11
Memasakkan makanan utk jiran yg sakit...
Berbuat baik walaupun pada yg tak suka pada kita..
High class attribute, indeed!!
Open for discussion, anyone?

In a time of darkness and greed
It is your light that we need
You came to teach us how to live
Muhammad Ya Rasool Allah
You were so caring and kind
Your soul was full of light
You are the best of mankind
Muhammad Khaira Khalqillah
Sallu ‘ala Rasulillah, Habib Al Mustafa
Peace be upon The Messenger
The Chosen One
From luxury you turned away
And all night you would pray
Truthful in every word you say
Muhammad Ya Rasul Allah
Your face was brighter than the sun
Your beauty equaled by none
You are Allah’s Chosen One
Muhammad Khaira Khalqillah
Sallu ‘ala Rasulillah, Habib Al Mustafa
Peace be upon The Messenger
The Chosen One
I will try to follow your way
And do my best to live my life
As you taught me
I pray to be close to you
On that day and see you smile
When you see me
Sallu ‘ala Rasulillah, Habibil Mustafa
Peace be upon The Messenger
The Chosen One
Sallu ‘ala Rasulillah, Habibi Mustafa
Peace be upon The Messenger
The Chosen One
On Our Newborn - Ahmad Ziyad
Berita tentang kehamilan wife aku kira2 bulan Mac, 2010 benar2 mengejutkan kami.
Bukanlah kami merancang utk tidak mendapat baby dlm tempoh terdekat. Malah berusaha ke arah itu memandangkan tempoh selamat yang ditetapkan oleh onkologi (pakar rawatan tumor & kanser) telahpun tamat.
Bercampur baur sebenarnya perasaan ini.
Suka....
Pasangan manalah yg tidak mengimpikan zuriat. Lari dari fitrah manusia jika berperasaan sebaliknya. Ikutkan '5-year action plan', mmg tahun 2010 kami berharap utk menambah seorang. Tapi itu ketika aku belum menempuh saat2 kimoterapi. Aku masih ingat lagi, sebelum menjalani kimoterapi, doktor minta aku pertimbang utk buat 'sperm banking' kerana risiko yg akan dihadapi. (50-50 kebarangkalian ketika itu sama ada aku boleh menambah zuriat atau tidak)
Akibat kos yg tinggi & masa yg terlalu suntuk utk aku buat keputusan, kami hanya mampu bertawakal & berserah segalanya pada Allah...
Lantas, bila tiba kelahiran ini, gembira bukan kepalang atas nikmat yang Allah kurniakan. Alhamdulillah...
Bimbang....
Di kala orang lain pastinya menyambut berita kehamilan dgn penuh kegembiraan, lain pula aku. Doktor, sejak aku menghabiskan sesi terakhir kimoterapi, awal2 berpesan agar wife aku tidak 'conceive' dalam tempoh 1 1/2 tahun pertama, dibimbangi sel2 belum pulih sepenuhnya & mungkin mengundang kecacatan pada bayi..
Maka, bila wife disahkan pregnant, aku masih 'trauma' & rasa bimbang dgn sebarang kemungkinan, walaupun tempoh 'berpantang' sudah tamat. Malah sudah kami consult doktor sebelum merancang utk ini.
Work..Work..Work..
Sejak July'10, jadual hidup aku sememangnya ada perubahan yg agak drastik (alasan utk tidak berblog dgn aktifnya..hehehe)
Pertukaran ke jabatan baru, memberikan perspektif baru dlm hidup aku.
Tidak salah kalau aku katakan, ia suatu nafas baru..
Memang memenatkan, kepala pun serabut...tapi ada kepuasan dlm melakukan tugasan2 yg diberikan. Namun, aku perlukan masa utk perbaiki semua kelemahan..
Mesir in a Mess
Siti Syafiqah, adik ipar aku baru melanjutkan pengajian di Universiti tertua, Al-Azhar Oct'10 lepas. Tak disangka2, Mesir bergolak jua akibat kemarahan yg tidak terbendung rakyat2nya. Siti antara mangsanya..Mujurlah selamat & diberitakan akan menaiki pesawat ke Jeddah malam ini (waktu tempatan = sekarang waktu Malaysia..hehe)
Utk kisah Mesir ini, banyak juga yg tersirat dari yg tersurat.
Kasihan pada kerajaan Malaysia yg dituduh lembab dlm memutuskan perlu atau tidak diselamatkan semua pelajar & rakyat Malaysia di sana.
Dalam hal ini, hanya satu je kesimpulan yg aku boleh buat..
Kalau orang suka kita, kentut kita pun dikatakan wangi..
Kalau orang dah menyampah, pakai la perfume berbotol2...orang akan tetap kata busuk...
Sebaiknya, kita muhasabah diri...
Jangan terlalu 'condemn' ikut nafsu & emosi, berpada2 dlm memberi komen..
Dan jgn pula jadi 'ignorant'..takut2 terkena nasib macam Hosni Mubarak...
