Every struggle you had in your life shaped you into the person you are today. Be thankful for the hard times they can only make you stronger
After 9 years, i still have a special place for you. Warm place you can call “home”.
Kamu mungkin pernah merasa futur, lelah, dan malas untuk melakukan ketaatan. Malas beribadah. Bahkan ketika adzan berkumandang, kamu masih bermalas-malasan untuk bangkit dan bergegas.
Ya. Kamu tidak sendirian.
Kita semua pernah berada di fase itu. Fase-fase ketika semangat ibadah kita mulai kendor. Atau ketika iman kita mulai melemah. Bukan cuma kita yang merasa demikian. Para Sahabat di zaman Rasulullah juga. Beliau berkata, “jika bersama Rasulullah, imanku benar-benar berada di kualitas yang terbaik. Namun jika kembali ke rumah, bertemu istri dan anak-anak, kembali berdagang, imanku melemah tidak sama seperti ketika bersama Rasulullah.” Begitulah kira-kira curhatan seorang sahabat. Bahkan menganggap dirinya sebagai orang yang munafik.
Namun Rasulullah menjawab, bahwa begitulah hati manusia. Mudah berbolak balik. Karena fitrahnya, iman memang naik turun. Ia bisa naik dengan ketaatan. Dan bisa turun sebab kemaksiatan. Jika ingin iman kita selalu stabil, paksakanlah untuk melakukan ketaatan demi ketaatan.
Satu hal yang ingin aku ingatkan. Bahwa bagaimana pun kondisi imanmu saat ini, jangan pernah berhenti melisankan istighfar. Jangan pernah berhenti memohon ampunan. Sebab untuk itulah kita diciptakan. Allah tahu manusia tempatnya salah dan khilaf. Untuk itu Allah berikan solusinya dengan beristighfar dan bertaubat. 🤎
No mother’s heart should ever have to endure losing her baby. To have to watch your child say goodbye to the sibling they never got to bring home. It’s too painful.
Sepertinya platform ini adalah satu-satunya teman, tempat curhat yang tidak berbatas. Selalu. Terkadang tidak pun menulis, scroll dashboard nya saja sudah menenangkan.
Tumblr menjadi satu-satunya teman, sejak bertahun-tahun yang lalu. Tak pernah bosan, selalu merasa menjadi “rumah” untuk pulang.

Sabr isn’t easy, sabr is tears, sabr is feeling alone, sabr is swallowing insults, sabr is smiles covering tears, sabr is crying for the response of Allah. “Behold, I am near.” (2:186)
فأين تذهبون؟
Thus, where are you going, Oh Insaan?
(٨١:٢٦)Where are you going,
When so much of benefit has been placed in your Deen,
And every Hukm aids your wellbeingWhere are you going,
When you are being promised so much in the hereafter,
You are being promised everlasting blissWhere are you going,
When the world is seeing that Islaam is the religion that holds the most wisdom,
And that all its laws are a protectionWhere are you going,
When Allah is calling you back to repent,
And there is so much of hope left for youWhere are you going,
When your Rabb is a Merciful one,
When you know that true peace of heart lies in the remembrance of Allah,
And you know that building a connection with your Creator will bring you true peaceWhere are you going,
When there is so much of consolation in your Deen,
And promised with hardship, is ease Where are you going,
Why are you heading towards the prohibited,
And abandoning the permissibleWhere are you going,
How is it that you are attracted to Haraam,
And you are not satisfied with HalaalWhere are you going,
Does Allāh not ask us over and over whether we observed past nations,
Will we not ponder, it is possible that the same fate could reach usWhere are you going,
Is now not the time to repent,
We do not know whether the punishment of Allāh is hanging above usWhere are you going,
Do you not realise how Allah is addressing you,
He awaits your return, He awaits your TaubahWhere are you going,
You are beseeched Oh Ummah,
Realise, the promise of Allāh is trueإنّ الله لا يغيّر ما بقوم حتّٰى يغيروا ما بأنفسهم
Verily, Allāh does not change the condition of a people until they change the condition within themselves
(١٣:١١)So Oh Insaan, exactly where are you going?
….dan anakku, terimakasih telah berada di perut umma selama 9 bulan lamanya, umma merindukan tendangan kecilmu yang semakin kuat ketika umma hendak tidur dimalam hari. Ketika engkau lahir ke dunia anakku, sungguh tangisanmu mampu meredakan segala bentuk kesakitan selama proses persalinan. Ketika umma pertama kali menyusuimu anakku, rasa haru menyelimuti umma, akhirnya umma dapat memelukmu seperti ini dan memberikan versi terbaik dari diri umma untukmu.
“No mother’s heart should ever have to endure losing her baby. My heart wasn’t made for this kind of heartbreak.”
Kepergianmu anakku mengajarkan umma banyak hal, jangankan untuk berada di posisi ini, membayangkannya saja umma tidak sanggup. Tapi nyatanya Tuhan memberikan umma ujian dengan kepergianmu. Awalnya ini sangat berat bagi umma nak, tetapi seiring berjalannya waktu umma menjadi kuat dan lebih kuat setiap harinya.
“Dreaming of the day i can hold you again and thankful for the hope of heaven”
Terimakasih yang tak terhingga nak karna walaupun hanya sebentar engkau di dunia, tapi engaku telah memberikan kebahagiaan yang luar biasa untuk umma, baba, dan abang Zayd. Mari sayang kita rayu Tuhan agar kita bisa berjumpa kembali di tempat yang lebih indah, di tempat yang sama-sama kita rindukan.
“My heart is heavy, but my heart is full. Thank you for many gifts you gave me through your life and even through your death.”

Our stories and struggles are different but we all deserve to bloom ✨
Berkata Ummar bin Khattab ra “Terkadang orang dengan masa lalu paling kelam akan menciptakan masa depan paling cerah”
Seringkali, kita mendapati orang-orang yang istiqomah itu justru mereka memiliki masa lalu yang buruk, mereka bertekad memperbaiki masa depannya dan takut untuk kembali ke jurang yang sama. Bahkan seorang kafir sekalipun, ketika ia memutuskan memeluk Islam, justru mereka bisa “lebih islami” dari pada yang Islam sejak lahir. Sungguh fakta yang mencengangkan, ketika Allah datangkan hidayah itu kepada siapapun tanpa memandang bulu.
Betapa besarnya Rahmat Allah kepada hamba-Nya yang mau berjuang, hingga di kisahkan “Sesungguhnya Allah itu begitu bergembira dengan taubat hamba-Nya melebihi kegembiraan seseorang di antara kalian yang menemukan kembali untanya yang telah hilang di suatu tanah yang luas.” (HR. Bukhari no. 6309 dan Muslim no. 2747)
Allah begitu menyayangi hamba-Nya yg bertaubat. Selama nafas masih berhembus, masih ada waktu untuk bertaubat dan mengusahakan akhir yang baik. Sisa umur kita, jika bukan untuk memperbaiki diri, maka itu sisa umur yang sia-sia.

The Muslim love for reading is quite understandable.
After all, Islam, as we know it today, began with the word ‘iqra’ — ‘read’ — which was the first word of God revealed to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, who would later noted that the quest for knowledge was an obligation for all believers.
The first revealed word of the Quran was therefore an exhortation to read, to recite. A religious tradition founded on knowledge, therefore, naturally cultivates in people a love of books.

The prayer matt is the only safest place to express your emotion and sorrow.
“Dear Allah…… I thought I messed up. Again. So I cried to You and I asked You, “Oh Allah, don’t let my heart get attached to what’s not written to be mine.” A year later he came along and I thought it was a sign. Someone you’ve put around me are so familiar with his name by now, You know that I’ve been crying. If You see fit, I want this. Strike my heart again if You think I’m lying. I am trying. I am. I’m sorry I always come to you with these petty problems. But you’re the only one who listens. You and only You have the Power to make our paths align. So I beg of You to always preserve his smile, because if he’s smiling at the end of it, then I guess it was all worthwhile. That’s why You put me here right? To make people smile. I’m not always good at it but I try. I know sometimes my faith can be shaky. I know I mess up. I know I hurt people I care for. I know lust. I know infatuation. I know I lie. I know. I know I lie… But I prayed You know? For this. For it to work out the right way. We are both willing to hurt for Your sake. So please O Allah. Can I meet him in the Afterlife if You see me unfit to meet him here? I used to to talk to him a lot about You. So I thought maybe this is the one? I trust Your power Allah. I’m okay. I’m okay. Keep him happy please. Take what You need of me to do it. Let him know I’m sorry for everything I did and everything I couldn’t do. I’m sorry I ask for so much. But for his sake and my sanity, here’s my letter to You.”— Dolla Ariesty - Letter to Allah

I just can’t wait to die, just to meet my creator (Allah Almighty) and to be reunited with my loved ones in Jannah.
