April is a transition period between study phase and examination phase of many students be in the secondary or university’s level all over the over. As for me the last two weeks of April was very hectic and exhaustive physically and mentally. Besides the essentials meetings – MTM, HRC, CEO, and the HSE, I faced by two serious disciplinary cases on defamatory issue and falsification of document. One case had been terminated and the other is still on the second part of story line. Other story that had disrupted us mental strength psychologically was the sad news transmitted to from Malaysia; one of the Yayasan Yusuf’s houses in Miri was intruded, clean swept by some unknown freak. I cannot blame them though, because the house itself was unattended and not properly managed. Good lessons learnt for all of us. Before that, we were shocked when we were informed that one of my brothers-in-law might have contracted blood cancer or leukemia! Alhamdulllillah, it was just some kind of rheumatoid syndrome. Towards the end of April, the whole world was alerted by the swine flu pandemic, which started in Mexico and spread dramatically within few weeks crossing the continent to New Zealand. The outbreak disrupted tourism sectors, transportation, consultants, etc. On the other hand, it developed some kind or awareness to many people on hygiene matters, diet, networking, etc. As for me, I will have to cancel my Valencia, Spain trip. There was one fatality case in Valencia itself reported 3 days ago. Alhamdullillah, I have recovered from my ‘spring’ flu, which I had contracted since almost two weeks ago, which had wrecked havoc my mental strength and forced me to visit the el-Salamah Hospital, Alexandria.
These whole things are something shown by the Almighty Allah swt, for us to ponder, think, and subsequently enhance our faith and devotion before Him. It reminds me about this very famous Malay proverb, it says; we could only plan, the Almighty Allah swt decides. Yes, our jurisdiction as a humble non-perfect human being is planning and putting the best efforts to execute it, and leave the results to the Almighty Allah Rabbul Jalil. For instance, as a student, he is expected to focus on his study, work hard before any examinations, and insert the best attitude during the examination. How many ‘A’s he will achieve after all the efforts he made, is not really. But, what does matter is, he did it in the course of Allah swt and for Allah swt. At the end of the day, our success in this worldly world and life thereafter, is not depend on how many ‘A’s that one achieved but rather on how pious we are in obeying and complying to Allah swt’s ‘Rules’ as shown and demonstrated by His great Messenger, the prophet Muhammad saw (peace be upon on him)
