love and marriage today

today i had practical while my other medics housemates had a day off school.. great for them!
yet it was wonderful for me..
in the 'lab', i had a chat wif my coursemate. a muslim. < many more> but this one is what i go deep into my heart. 

we were talking about 'something' that brought us to an interesting teens topic ie marriage, 

she asked

friend: do you have more love marriages or arranged marriages in malaysia? 

i was silent for a while..not knowing what to say. 
some people i know, had love marriages or engagements. 
some people i know, do had arranged marriage. 
she noticed the silent, i think. 

friend: i my country, there are more arranged marriages than love marriages. 

me: oo yeah. well (i think) we have more love marriages than arranged. obviously, it is for this generation. previously, arranged marriages were most common :)

then the chat continued. 


BUT, is it really is? that there are MORE LOVE marriages? 
isn't that there are quite a number of arranged BM marriages?  
those are arranged ones, right? considering this, i should have said that both are equal. love marriages and arranged are equally popular and practiced..

YET, for me, i have reasons for saying that love marriages are the most common! 
despite those who are marrying for love, i still consider those who married without having to date their husband or wife-to-be before marriage to have LOVE MARRIAGE. 


yes, BM is LOVE MARRIAGE!

marriages on basis of their LOVE to ALLAH, the Messenger and our RELIGION. 

a sacrifice and tawakal for HIS LOVE and BARAKAH.

Pahit bak hempedu..

Sekali lagi satu petikan dari saifulislam.com. Aku suka pada pengakhiran artikel ni.. Bentangkan sejadah. Dia Teman sejatimu… ______________________________________________  “Sabarlah… kawan aku dahulu sakit macam ini juga. Walaupun dia meninggal dunia, aku yakin engkau mampu mengatasinya!” seorang teman yang baik hati memberi nasihat. Hatinya baik. Tetapi hati yang tidak dipandu akal, menyebabkan mulut ditimpa bebal. Bercakap sesuatu dengan maksud yang baik, tetapi salah memilih perkataan. Dia menyangka perkataannya bisa mengurangkan penderitaan teman yang diziarahi. Hakikatnya, perkataan simpati yang dilontar itu sungguh pedih dan membunuh harapan. KANSER “Engkau beruntung. Allah sayang engkau sebab dia peringatkan engkau yang hidup ini sementara!” kata seorang lagi. Kata-kata perangsang yang ditujukan kepada seorang teman yang sedang bertarung dengan kanser. Apakah yang ada di kepala teman seperti ini semasa dia berkata begitu? Apakah itu sahaja harga sebuah ...

keunikan suku Quraisy

Hal yang menarik untuk kita kaji adalah mengapa nabi dan rasul terakhir bagi umat manusia dibangkitkan Allah dari kalangan suku Quraisy di Semenanjung Arabia? Jawaban atas pertanyaan ini diberikan oleh Allah sendiri dalam Alquran Surat Quraisy ayat pertama dan kedua yang berbunyi, "Karena tradisi suku Quraisy. Tradisi mereka mengembara di musim dingin dan di musim panas". Kota suci Mekah pada mulanya bernama Baka atau Bakkah, sebagaimana tercantum dalam Ali Imran 96. Dalam bahasa Arab, kata baka mempunyai dua arti, "berderai air mata" dan "pohon balsam". Arti yang pertama berhubungan dengan gersangnya daerah itu sehingga seakan-akan tidak memberikan harapan, dan arti yang kedua berhubungan dengan banyaknya pohon balsam (genus commiphora) yang tumbuh di sana. Oleh karena huruf ...
