Assalamu'alaikum, hairi fatimah
I’ve been receiving quite a few queries about the morning routine and the stuff we e-mailed you
about in the past 4 weeks, here are the top questions and answers:

1. How many hours should you sleep?

 The answer seems to be the intention of sleep; if you’re sleeping for dunya (that is to be completely relaxed at work, home, family and to have a long healthy life), then sleeping would be very important to you and you would ensure that you sleep a minimum of 6-8 hours each night. However, if you’re sleeping for akhirah, or sleeping for the sake of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala), you’ll be sleeping just enough to give your due right to your body whilst not neglecting the fact that you’re here in this world for a temporary period and you’ll soon return to your Lord. You would try to minimize your sleep so that it doesn’t affect your worship.Having said that, I would like to emphasize that giving due right to your body is part of the concept of sleeping for akhirah.

2. How do I stay up after fajr?

The time right after Fajr prayers is a blessed time that Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) made dua for, He said: “O Allah, bless my Ummah in its early hours”.

Here are 2 ways to help you stay up after Fajr to become a beneficiary of blessings and success insha’Allah:

  1. Go to bed early and rest
    After the Isha prayer, the Prophet (Peace and blessings be upon him) would not like to engage in unnecessary talk and would take to his house to go to sleep.
  2. Recite/reflect/memorize Quran
    After Fajr prayer is an amazing time to be alone with the Quran. Before the day’s distractions set you off course, use this time to recite, reflect and memorize The Quran.

Lucky? Alhamdulillah:)

Sejak kemarin sahabat saya F, asyik kata saya " lucky" ( Nasib baik di sini: tak kantoi kalau terlambat datang) . Katanya dah lama dia perasan saya selalu bernasib baik ( mungkin dia lupa saya pernah dihukum kerana lambat;) ) . Tiap kali dia bagitahu saya, saya jadi tidak tahu nak respond macammana. "Alhamdulillah ;)",respon saya. Mungkin sebab saya pun tak rasa itu sebagai nasib yang baik. Atau sebetulnya itu memang bukan nasib baik. Mungkin itu berkat doa yang diajar Rasulullah saw untuk dibaca setiap pagi dan petang apabila keluar ruma h Bismillah hillazi La Yadhuru ma'as mihi syaiun fil ardhi wala fis sama'aie Wahuwas sami'ul 'alimm Ertinya : Dengan nama Allah,tidak dapat sesuatu pun yang memberi mudharat di bumi dan tidak juga di langit kepadaku dengan berkat namanya, dan Allah amat mendengar lagi amat mengetahui. Meaning: In the name of Allah, by whose name nothing is harmed! Neither on earth nor in the heavens and He is the all-Seeing, the a...

Demam

Bila jadi houseman ni, demam pun rasa bersalah.Tapi demam tu datang juga tanpa rasa bersalah, nak buat lagu mana kan.... Kadang-kadang, saya sedar yang saya dalam beberapa perkara tidak meletakkan sesuatu pada tempatnya.. zalim ke macam tu? mungkin, ya, mungkin jugak tidak.. cumanya, pada saat perkara tersebut terjadi saya tidak sedar sampaila tak lama kemudian terdetik dalam hati, kenapala aku buat macam tu, kenapala, kenapala..tapi dah buat kan... how i wish i can roll back time and be more ****..... I want to move on now... despite all my weakness , my inabilities, my limits, my discouragement , lack of confident, i believe in myself that i can go through this. i really love doing this! its actually my actual feeling but its deteriorating over time. how come i'am weakening so fast? till then..
