How to get up early.

Assalamualaikum and hi people.

*English mode on.*

I’m kind of a morning person. I like waking up in the morning to do something instead of you know, dreaming again. *sometimes I did that too, you know when you too tired or too lazy to do anything :b.

Let’s just say in Islam, it is better to not to sleep after Solah fajr because our prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) told us so. Even when you do that you’ll notice you’ll become weaker and your day might not be productive.

But here’s some tips to get up early that I figure it out myself and some from my research on the web (I did googled it!) and most of it from Anna Vital.

1.       Have enough sleep. For an adult or youth like me it is enough to have between 5-6 hours. Recite dua/prayer.

2.       Sleep comfortably. Use a blanket that keeps you warm vice versa. Depends on your situation. Good sleep is between 16-21 degree Celsius *research.

3.       Sleep in total darkness because melatonin (the sleep hormone) is produced in the dark. *research

4.       Drink before you sleep! I did this to myself because I’m easily got a sore throat if I’m not hydrated. And drinking some water not only rejuvenating but keeps you hydrated. According to a research we lost lots of water in our body through breathing and of course, sleeping.

5.       Put alarm. Far than your bed so you can’t snooze it. Ahaha

6.       Plan an exciting breakfast. So you’ll look up to make that. And of course, if you want to work productively you’ll need a good boost because you brain feeds on glucose/sugar or something like that. I’ll just go as simple as a banana and hot chocolate. Or maybe some caffeine/coffee.

7.       Read a book. From a book (not online) because you can’t browse away from it. Or maybe your math/history books :D

8.       Have your goals of the next day/ schedule your most important task of your day especially in the morning so you’ll get excited to get up to do it.

9.       To my Muslims readers do look up for sunnah. The sunnah the better right? InsyaAllah I’ll list out some sunnah of sleeping (before/after) soon. There’s always goodness in every sunnah. You didn’t only get physical benefits but also rewards when you do it.

10.   Last but not least, in order to get rid of the sleepiness after you wake up a few tips that I can list out is :-

·         Be active. Sing in the shower or do some light exercise.

·         Caffeine. A cup of coffee always works on me.

·         Do something.

I hope that those tips might help even a little. I did not do the whole tips that I wrote up there but some of them help me.  Just to remain clear that my English is quite not good as I’m still working on it, through writing like this. If you do notice some mistakes grammatically or anything just tell me through all my social media networking account like twitter/comments bellow or maybe emails me at hdimussqim@gmail.com . I would love to know anything like ideas/tips/anything from you guys. With that, thank you for reading!

Movie thought (Miracle in cell no. 7)

Assalamualaikum and hi.

 Just a few days ago I accidently watched a Korean movie. YES. Korean. And it’s not a clingy, cliché or anything-in-your-mind love story. It’s  a life story. A GOOD ONE and makes me  just wanna tell everybody I know to watch this movie and so far, the victims are my roommate, my friends and of course, you.  Aha ;B

The first time I found out this movie is through Astro, but didn’t buy the channel so tengok trailer ja lah. Tak silap cita ni dah lama. Kot.

Warning: Before you watch this movie, make sure to spare a tissue box and sit alone. Because even the toughest guy cry *even a little* hahaha *kidding. Tapi serius cerita ni banyak main emosi. Tambahan pulak it’s a family story.

So tak mau jadi spoilers, nak cerita la sikit synopsis ? karangan ringkasan? Apa pun boleh la.

Cerita ni tentang bapa dan anak perempuan. Bapak dia ni kureng cerdik sikit. Satu hari bapak dia kena penjaara sebab kena tuduh walaupun bapak dia tak buat pun. Tapi something happened that they could reunite.

Dalam penjara.

Dan bapak dia kena hukuman mati. Jadi, depa spare last moment sama-sama. Even kawan2 bapak dia dalam penjara pun tolong depa at anything they could. Sebab dari polis yang jaga penjara tu sampai kawan2 penjara tau bapak dia tak bersalah.

nah trailer sikit. Kot nak usha.

Cukup sikit-sikit, post ni lebih kurang movie review la. Rate?

Dari skala 1- 10, aku bagi 8. Tapi it’s really a good movie. A must watch. Kalau hampa dah pakat tengok, cerr komen sikit. Eheh ~,~

Sekian,.

Life little instructions.

Assalamualikum and hi.

Welcome to 2015 :B

Alhamdulillah, since 2015 here I thought maybe it’s quite “relevant” if I share something like tips or from the title,  ‘Life little instructions’. I got this from tumblr few months ago. It’s about an advise I guess from 95 years old William Snell (1993).

You know, sometimes older person knows. And they got it right.  Sebab depa makan garam lebih dari kita. Eh? And for sure I did orter sikit ayat tu. Mengikut sedap hati.

So here we go,.

   - Sing in the shower.

    -Treat everyone you met like you want to be treated.

    -Watch a sunrise once a year.

      -Never refuse homemade brownies.

    -Strive for excellent, not perfection.

    -Plant a plant on your birthday

    -Learn 3 clean jokes.
    -Returned borrowed vehicles with full tank.

   -Never waste opportunity to say you loved someone.

   -Leave everything a little better when you found it.

   -Keep it simple.

   -Think big thought but relish small pleasures.

   -Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.

   -Be forgiving on yourself and others.

   -Say ‘thank you’ a lot.

   -Say ‘please’ a lot.

   -Avoid negative people.

   -Wear polished shoes.

   -Remember other people birthday.

   -Commit yourself to constant improvement.

   -Have a firm handshake.

   -Look people in the eyes.

   -Be the first to say hello. *or Assalamualaikum.

   -Return all things you borrow.

   -Make new friends but cherish the old one.

   -Keep secrets.

   -Have a dog/pet.

   -Plant flowers every spring.

   -Always accept outstretched hand.

    -Stop blaming others.

   -Take responsibility for every area of your life.

   -Waves on all kids on school buses.

   -Be there when people need you.

  -Don’t expect life to be fair.

   -Never underestimate the power of love.

Live your life as an exclamation, not an explanation.

Don’t be afraid to say “ I made mistakes” and “I don’t know”.

Compliment even small improvements.

Keep your promises no matter what.

Marry only for love.

Rekindle old friendship.

Count your blessings.

Call your mother and your dad too. If they happen to be alive.

Refleksi 2014

Alhamdulillah,. Dah nak tamat 2014.

Dugaan tahun ni ( Tragedi MH370, MH 17, Putting beliung, Banjir besar) biarlah jadi pengajaran buat kita yang Allah itu takkan menguji kalau tidak tak mampu.

Bala atau kafarah. Itu atas kita. Cara kita terima.

This year  has been a great year of my life (so far) and I hope 2015 will be better.

Banyak perkara yang penting jadi tahun ni. *ecewah*

Not to say that I’m completely reach my goals or what. Hanya sekadar refleksi buat diri aku ni yang tak seberapa.

Cuma, nak share kat sini few things that I managed to accomplish this year.

First. I start baking dan start jual even terima order which means I get to do what I love to and get something from it. Walaupun tak seberapa, Jadilah untuk tanggung sikit buat beli handphone baru.

The best  part from baking I get to make my Ibu her birthday cake. and her reactions on that moment, is beyond what I can say here. It’s something that I’ll always remember. Tapi tak sempat buat ayah punya birthday cake. Dan wish ja. Sebab dah fly dah waktu bday ayah.

Kedua, aku dapat pengalaman mengaji pengajian pondok.

Tau madrasah pondok?

Cuma tak la tidur/makan situ. Cuma dapat rasa biah, cara tarbiah depa. Dan pengajian di situ mengajar seribu satu cerita. InsyaAllah post yang lain kot. Jenuh 1001 nak cerita dalam post ni.

Ketiga, terbang ke benua Afrika. Sampai ke bumi Musa (as). Entah, macam tak real tapi memang camtu lah ceritanya.

Moga Allah kuatkan hati untuk terus teguh dengan tali dia.

Dan moga aku bermanfaat buat ummah juga. Doakan.

Dan cukup disini saja kot, nak cerita lebih habis la special value. Tak gitu?

So, sempena nak masuk tahun baru masihi tajdid niat selalu. Pasak azam teguh teguh. Biar utuh walau ribut merempuh. *cewah*

Nak tuju lagu, my song of the year :

Terbang Tunduk – Kokping Jamal. Heeee

Akhiaq sekali, nak rekemen buku. Catatan Matluthfi . First aku ingat buku ni lebih kepada nak cita hidup dia, cara belajar dia etc.. tapi senang cerita buku ni mengajak kita berfikir tentang banyak perkara.Dari politik sehingga society.Sarcasm dia pun boleh tahan. Aha :B  Dan aku memang rekemen hampa semua beli bagi ada sorang satu. Bermanfaat insyaAllah.

Sebelum tu nak pesan,

Owner tak ingat dari mana ambik pic ni.

 Sekian.

Bersahabat seperti Sayyidina Abu Bakr Assiddiq.

Assalamualaikum, bismillah.

Entry kali ini secara totalnya nak bercerita tentang persahabatan dan Saydina Abu Bakr.

Sebab tu tajuk pun bersahabat seperti Saydina Abu Bakr. Eheh  - - *

Kalau tentang persahabatan, memang tak lari dari perkataan ni. Ukhwah.

“Ee.. geli lah dengar perkataan tu,” kata anak Pakcik Meon jiran sebelah tahun lepas.

Hurm, ukhwah sebenarnya bukanlah perkara geli geli. Ukhwah adalah nadi utama dalam persahabatan. Lebih kurang kalau kata takda ukhwah, for sure sesuatu persahabatan takkan utuh. Tak payah mengaku BFF kalau sebut ukhwah pun dah geli. Eheh.

Tapi, point kat sini lebih kepada nak cerita fasal figura besar dalam dunia Islam, Khalifah pertama Islam, Sahabat pertama yang memeluk Islam dalam kalangan syabab dan kalau nak senarai, tak habis entry ni jawabnya.

Beliau dilahirkan dua tahu/tiga tahun selepas tahun Gajah, atau selepas keputraan rasulullah. Beliau tidak pernah menyembah berhala dan tidak pernah meneguk arak.

Oklah. Tahu kan, sebab apa beliau digelar as siddiq? Yang membenarkan?

Sebab semasa rasulullah s.a.w mengkhabarkan berita Isra’ dan Mikraj, ramai ragu ragu dengan baginda. Dalam kalangan ramai ramai yang masih bersyak wasangka, beliaulah yang tanpa ragu ragu membenarkan baginda.

Dan gelaran As Siddiq yang digelarkan oleh rasulullah kepada beliau tidaklah terhenti disitu.

Ketika kekalutan pengkhabaran kewafatan rasulullah, ketika seluruh manusia tidak dapat menerima pemergian baginda, hattakan Saydina Umar sendiri berkata : “Barang siapa mengatakan bahawa Muhammad itu wafat, nescaya akan aku pancung kepalanya!”.

Beliau membenarkan kewafatan baginda.

Kata-kata beliau yang mahsyur ketika itu, “ Barangsiapa menyembah Muhammad, sesungguhnya Muhammad wafat. Barangsiapa menyembah Allah, sesungguhnya Allah hidup dan tidak mati,”. 

Maka terdiam semua manusia.

Ketika Islam ditindas, umat Islam disiksa oleh musyrikin Makkah ketika itu, beliau adalah antara yang menyumbangkan hartanya untuk membeli hamba hamba yang disiksa. Seperti Saydina Bilal bin Rabah

Dan ketika hijrah nabi s.a.w ke Yathrib (Madinah), beliaulah yang menemani baginda. Mereka diburu dan diancam bunuh. Beliau masih setia disisi baginda. Maka turun ayat quran khas buat mereka berdua. *tak ingat dengan sempurna ayat tu jadi tak berani nak tulis.

*nangis*

Dan pengakhiran hidup beliau, beliau wafat selepas beberapa tahun kewafatan rasulullah.

Disemadikan bersebelahan baginda.

Beliau sahabat rasulullah di dunia, di kubur dan di akhirat sana. (Beliau adalah sahabat yang dijanjikan syurga).

Cukup setakat ini mengenai beliau. Yang penting mampukah kita bersahabat seperti beliau?

*terduduk*

 Andaikata tulisan ini banyak cacat cela, mohon disempurnakan. E-mel ja. Takpun komen bawah. Cakap baik baik tau.

But more than anything, moga entry ini bermanfaat. Berguna buat kita terutamanya syabab/fatayat islami.

Sekian, Wasalam J
