Aint easy...

Since I got the letter from U.K, my heart went trembling. Your letter really had jeopardized me. Huh, I know your reading it; please give me time (huhuhu).

Ya Allah,
jika saya jatuh cinta,
cintakanlah saya pada seseorang yang melabuhkan cintanya pada-Mu,
agar bertambah kekuatan ku untuk mencintai-Mu.
Ya Muhaimin,
jika saya jatuh cinta,
jagalah cintaku padanya agar tidak melebihi cintaku pada-Mu Ya Allah,
jika saya jatuh hati,
izinkanlah saya menyentuh hati seseorang yang hatinya tertaut pada-Mu,
agar tidak terjatuh saya dalam jurang cinta semu.
Ya Rabbana,
jika saya jatuh hati,
jagalah hatiku padanya agar tidak berpaling pada hati-Mu.
Ya Rabbul Izzati,
jika saya rindu,
rindukanlah saya pada seseorang yang merindui syahid di jalan-Mu.
Ya Allah, jika saya rindu,
jagalah rinduku padanya agar tidak lalai saya merindukan syurga-Mu.

Well, I’m having my 3 days so-called vacation. Wow, it’s a relief that I got the permission from my doc. I really gotta finish dis three days wif jam-packed, sky-scraping struggling effort in accomplishing my ‘mission’. I shud stop talk nonsense in my own blog. I had just gone through Sayyid Qutb’s Fi zilalil Quran (d one dat u gif me a couple month ago… did not have time to open it before). I just glanced at it until my eyes captures the ‘love letter’ on the ‘The Most High’. I really love this because I could memorize it;

Praise the name of your Lord, the Most High,
Who creates and proportions well
Who determines and guides
Who brings from the pasturage
Then turns it into withered grass
We shall teach you to read and you shall not forget
Save what Allah wills. He knows what is manifest and what is kept hidden

And We shall smooth your way to perfect ease
Give warning, therefore, if warning is of use.
He who fears Allah will heed it
But the most wretched will turn aside from it
He shall be cast into the greatest fire
In which he shall neither die nor live

Prosperous is he who purifies himself
And glorifies the name of his Lord and prays

Yet you prefer this present life
While the life to come is better and longer lasting
All this is surely written in earlier scriptures the scriptures of Abraham and Moses


Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal has transmitted on the authority of Ali, the prophet’s cousin and companion that the Prophet used to love this surah. The famous traditionalist, Muslim, has also transmitted that the Prophet used to read this surah and surah 86, “The Enveloper”, in the prayers of Islamic festivals and in Friday prayers. If one of the festivals fell on a Friday, the Prophet would be sure to read these two surahs in the prayers.

The prophet is right to love this surah as it turns the whole universe into a temple whose four corners echo the praises and glorification of His Lord the Most High “Praise the name of your Lord, the Most High, Who creates and proportions well, Who determines and guides, Who brings from the pasturage, Then turns it into withered grass” The rhythm of the surah, characterized by the long vowels with which each of its verses ends, imparts a feeling of the praises echoed everywhere in the universe.

To be continue….
