Bilau

Rajuk manusia pada perihal manusia
Sedih manusia pada hati manusia
Faham manusia pada sifat manusia

Lalu harus apa lagi
Bila semua yang kau tahu
Tentang manusia dan alamnya
Bila apa yang kau mengerti
Cumanya sebahagian dari kesabaran
Yang Tuhan ilhamkan pada engkau

Senyumlah
Tiada yang mustahil dalam pandangan Ilahi
Mungkin jauh dihujung sana
Nampak ada yang lebih indah
Daripada jauh dihujung sini
Mungkin nampak tenang di ruang langit
Tapi belum tahu gelora awan bermain dengan angin

Jika payah susah jerit perih mendatang jiwa
Hantarkan hatimu itu pada Si Pencipta Hati
Dia Maha Tahu apa racau hatimu
Dia Maha Cinta dalam solusinya nanti

Dan aku sentiasa disini
Menanti dengan penuh erti
Sandarkan pada aku
Keluh hatimu yang satu itu
Biar tenang jiwamu bertemu Tuhanmu
Agar nanti sama sama kita cari
Jalan ke syurga yang abadi

Everyday

There are times
We might not see eye to eye
And there are times when we'll have differences

We cant be around too long before we fight
But it's okay
Cuz i love you anyway

There are times
When You you don't know
How your going make it through
I know I've been there too

You can always rest ashore
Dont be ashamed to share with me

We should speak
From the heart
And let love be the solution
Let us forgive
Put the past out of the way
No time to wait
The time has come to give love everyday

There are times those times
when you need to be heard
and there are days some days
when the pain is beyond words

You hold it in
You run
You hide
Cling on to pride when deep down you wanna cry

There are times
bad times
When a secret needs revealing
and there are those
Those who know exactly what you're feeling

Come on home
Theres always room
Someone to share everthing that your going through

Tabah

Saat langit bertukar warnanya
Tika matahari semakin malap sinarnya
Sang bulan kembali membawa cahaya
Burung kembali ke sarangnya

Manusia selalu punya impian
Harapan susunan hidupnya
Biar indah seperti sang pelangi tujuh warna
Biar harum seperti bunga yang mekar

Saat kembara dimulakan
Sepenuh jiwa diserahkan
Agar baik baik sahaja diperjalanan
Aku tinggalkan engkau dengan Tuhan
Dan aku tahu Tuhan takkan pernah menghampakan

Mula

perlahan lahan jari di cari

meminta huruf huruf disusun menjadi kata

namun kata itu pudar maknanya

serinya hilang seperti tak terucap

Tangis dia bukan pada rajuknya hati

tapi pada kacau dia dengan perasaaan

tentang cerita yang entah mana mula

kelam pada akhirnya

tapi dia tahu dan sedar

dengan setia Tuhan dengan ketentuanNya

susunan usaha dia

takkan mungkin setanding 

dengan aturan cinta pemilik Cinta

terduduk dia dalam sendiri

mengerti setiap maksud yang tersembunyi

perlahan lahan dia menanti

hikmah semua yang diatur nanti

Jejak dia kembali

dalam pencarian hati

menuju syurga abadi

pinta dia cuma 

dikuatkan hati

'Assuming the Best about Allah' | IslamToday - English

Jâbir b. `Abd Allah al-Ansârî relates that he heard Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said three days before his death: "None of you should ever die except while assuming the best about Allah." [Sahîh Muslim (5125)]

It is wrong for any Muslim to think ill of Allah. A Muslim should always assume the best about his Lord. As long as the Muslim is striving to engage in good deeds, he should expect the best outcome: that Allah will accept his good deeds; that Allah from His grace will forgive him; and that Allah will bless him to live out his life, until its conclusion, upon faith. This is why the Prophet (peace be upon him) say: "None of you should ever die except while assuming the best about Allah." [Sahîh Muslim (5125)] 

Ibn al-Qayyim says:

There can be no doubt that assuming the best about Allah only comes as a result of righteous conduct. It is the righteous person who assumes the best about his Lord, since he knows that Allah will reward him for his good deeds and will never break His promise. 

On the other hand, the sinner who persists in wrongdoing, injustice, and disobedience is prevented by his evil deeds from assuming the best about his Lord. We can see a similar situation in how people relate to each other. A runaway slave, for instance, is not going to assume the best of his master. Good assumptions never go hand in hand with the disturbed state of disobedience. A sinner is estranged from his Lord to the extent of his sinfulness. The person who has the best outlook on his Lord is invariably the one who is the most obedient to his Lord. 

Al-Hasan al-Basrî said: "The believer assumes the best about his Lord so he does the best deeds. The sinner assumes the worst about his Lord, so he does evil deeds."

The Prophet (peace be upon him) related to us that Allah says: "I am as My servant thinks of Me. I am with him when he remembers Me. If he mentions Me within himself, I mention him within Myself. If he mentions Me in an assembly, I mention him in a better assembly. If he comes near to Me a handspan, I come near to him the distance of a cubit. If he comes near to Me the distance of a cubit, I come near to him the distance of two outspread arms. If he comes to Me walking, I come to him running." [Sahîh al-Bukhârî(6856) and Sahîh Muslim (4832)] 

Think about these words. The first thing Allah calls us towards is to have a positive outlook about Him under all circumstances, since He will be as His servant thinks of Him. Allah will relate to the person the way the person expects Him to. When the servant assumes the best about his Lord and pins his hopes on his Lord's providence, his Lord will not disappoint him. Allah will never let his good deeds go unrewarded. When the servant beseeches Allah, he believes that his prayer will be answered. When he sincerely repents for a sin, he trusts that Allah will forgive him. When he performs a virtuous deed, he assumes that Allah will accept it form him and reward him for it. All of this is part of assuming the best about Allah. 

This is why the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "When you beseech Allah in supplication, be convinced that He will answer you." [Sunan al-Tirmidhî (3401)] 

Assuming the best about Allah is one aspect of our belief in Allah, since it is based upon our belief in His mercy, His power, His generosity, and His might. It is also a fundamental aspect of our reliance upon Allah, which is essential to or monotheistic belief. 

Allah rebukes a group of people who thought ill of Him. Allah shows their bad expectations about Him to be one of the clearest signs of their hypocrisy. He says about the hypocrites who abandoned the Prophet (peace be upon him) and his Companions during the Battle of Uhud: "Another party was stirred to anxiety by their own feelings, moved by wrong suspicions of Allah – suspicions due to ignorance." [Sûrah Al `Imrân: 154] 

Elsewhere, Allah says about the hypocrites: "…the hypocritical men and the hypocritical women, and the idolatrous men and the idolatrous women, who think an evil thought concerning Allah." [Sûrah al-Fath: 6] 

Our assuming the best about Allah really means pinning our hopes end expectations on Allah. We know that Allah can be severe in punishment as well as most merciful, but we must hope for His mercy and be confident that if we sincerely repent for our sins and strive to do good, we will attain Allah's mercy. We must never despair. We must never see our sins to be too great for Allah's forgiveness. That despair itself is a great sin. 

Allah says, conveying to us the words of his prophet Jacob (peace be upon him): “Never despair of Allah’s mercy. No one despairs of Allah’s mercy except the unbelieving people.” [Sûrah Yûsuf: 87]
