Of hope dan faith

Life, they say, is full of ups and downs. Today you are happy, tomorrow full of sorrows. The wheels of existence churning the naked truth of reality only to prove that what doesn't kill you, will only make you stronger.

The challenge that we face each day, to move forward with hope that what ever we do today will bring the best out of tomorrow.

But hope, is always like the kindling flame of a candlelight fire. Real but small, most often covered within the shadows of doubt. You can hope, but you can never be too sure.

So, how then do we survive this torment of evil thoughts? Of the fear, that hope will only make the disappointment and grief of dejection even more apparent than it would have appeared to be, amplified to a thousand degree.

To have trust. To have faith.

Say: "He is my Lord! There is no god but He!
In Him I put my trust, and to Him I shall return."

[Ar-Ra`d 13:30]



Kalau bukan padaNya, pada siapa lagi mampu disandarkan peritnya hati ini?

Bukankah ujian itu petanda bahawa tingkatan iman kita sedang diberi peluang untuk diangkat ke darjat yang lebih tinggi dari yang sebelumnya?

Takut. Tipu kalau tak takut. Siapa nak ujian susah-susah. Kalau boleh, nak hidup kat dunia ni senang-lenang goyang kaki. Mati nanti terus masuk syurga.

Tapi kalau kita menolak ujian, tak rasa ke kita macam menipu diri sendiri? Ingat senang ke nak masuk syurga? (Waaa, ganazz nye.. =P)

Sampai bila nak berada pada tahap ni? Oh, kalau Allah masih bagi peluang dengan datangnya ujian demi ujian demia ujian tak pe lagi, tapi kalau Allah terus matikan hati untuk merasai nikmatnya iman... aduh, jauhkanlah Ya Allah! Tak mauuuuu...

Langkah harus terus laju. Hati harus tekad. Keyakinan harus teguh, hanya pada Allah. Yakin bahawa apa pun yang bakal terjadi nanti, adalah yang terbaik yang telah digariskan buat diri.

"Inilah jalanku! Aku dan orang-orang yang mengikutiku
mengajak kepada Allah dengan hujjah yang nyata."
[Yusuf, 12:108]

Have complete faith. There is no turning back!

"Lets have faith that right makes might;
and in that faith let us, to the end,
dare to do our duty as we understand it."

- Abraham Lincoln
