INNA LILLAHI WA INNA ILAIHI RAAJI'UN... (TANBIHUL GHAFILIN)

Alhamdulillah, praise to ALLAH for giving us time and health in doing this final year project. Today, I am not talking about my project, just a bit of thoughts that I would like to share to you all my dear friends, about my experience in the making of this project.  In the excitement of exploring Alduino and Xbee, I would like to advice me, my partner and my viewers about the importance of staying grounded, stable, alert and the awareness of we also have another destiny, the Akhirah. 

 As we can see today this world is living in massive madness, madness that is created and continuously being influenced day by day, through the excitement of entertainment. We have to realized that the entertainment that is attacking our brain and thoughts does not only comes from the singers and televisions, it also comes in a variety of fields, not to mention that it was very very fine and never can be detected with our naked eyes.  

 For example, this electronics field is really exciting and fun to explore, and it would be really great if we use the technology to raise our Ummah. Yes, we are all in the process of learning and exploring, but please remember and please note to yourself, that we are doing this to learn the knowledge of the technology world, all because of ALLAH. I am writing about this today because I am once lost  in my own electronics world. Weeks before this post is published, I am ambitious about my project, I want it to be really good to impressed lecturers, friends and my future employer. I want it to be good so bad that I am scared that I will fail it and it will effect my job applications after I am done studying at UniKL BMI. Not that I am saying that it is bad to be ambitious, I am warning you about the excitement that will leads you to forget about your main purpose of living in this world, that is to be the Khalifah to other creatures. 


Then I look back and started to realize that our religion teaches us to be modest about anything, in everything. So from now on, that is what I am going to do. I changed my motives to learn about this field all because of ALLAH, not to impressed other people. ALLAH is the one who have to be satisfied, not anybody, since He is the King of all kings. I feel so much more motivated, plus I have no fear anymore that this project will cause me trouble or failure, since I am now working very hard on it plus I am practicing tawakkal to ALLAH! I will leave everything to ALLAH once I did all my efforts.

We are literally running out of time, the clock is ticking and we are all headed to that one place, that is Akhirah. So wake up,  pray for guidance and ALLAH's forgiveness everyday, work like you live forever and pray, worship Allah like there is no tomorrow.  May ALLAH blesses us and have mercy on our soul...


 From Ibn. Umar Radiallahu Anhu: 

Allah's Apostle said, "Amongst the trees, there is a tree, the leaves of which do not fall and is like a Muslim. Tell me the name of that tree." Everybody started thinking about the trees of the desert areas. And I thought of the date-palm tree but felt shy to answer the others then asked, "What is that tree, O Allah's Apostle ?" He replied, "It is the date-palm tree."
