EpiFunny’s of Mine

one of the thing that learnt in life is that u’ve got to know when to just slow down and look around.i learnt that sometimes,the best thing to do is to stop and smell the flowers,smile at the fullmoon,watch the raindrops(or snow).it’s one of things that help me to hold myself together in life.knowing that i’m not the center of the world(not even my own private world) and how miniscule i am among all of Allah’s creations.if He wants,i’ll fall like a drop of rain,or shine like the full moon.

anyway,last sunday was a kind of a busy day for us here in volgograd(ironically it’s the only day off for us)
in the morning,zul n me went to the weekly ceramah at hiroshima.like always..we’re late but couldn’t stop oursleves taking some shot on our way there,earlier it was snowing and the mixture of snow,green grass and fallen leaves made quite a nice few.

to those who asked”best tak dok russia”..examples like that day was the answer.i dunno whether there’s a view like this in front of any apartment anywhere in the world,but down here is some of the pictures zul n me snapped along the way(the main reason we were late to the ceramah was that we overslept though,the pic-snapping part took only a few minutes.hehe)

after the cramah,there’s a meeting bout the weekly usrah(we’re just going to start all over again).i dun think i gave anything beneficial by being there except when i reminded that we should call the “naqibs” “rangers” intead and rename the “usrah” to “ring of wisdom”, so that it’d be a cool thing instead of having a heavy ring to it.if u live here long enough,u’d know that going to watch a soccer game in a windy day will attract a bigger crowd than a cramah inside a cozy building.

meeting over,i brought some of the tutors for the AL(arabic language) gang to my house(gang sounds cooler than class).there were 15 of us and we continued our lesson with hamid at the lead.alhamdulillah that we can meet a good arab here willing to teach us.

after the lesson and maghrib,me and some of the tutors went to the open house in ploshad sovestkaya.most of the food are gone,but kitorang bantai jerk mana ada.sorry and kudos to all the tutors who prioritized the class over their stomach.a volunteer’s will is always stronger than any paid worker’s ,heh.

thanks to the open house hosts’ kindness we ate to our fill(at least i did) and went home with satisfied grins.
looking forward to another sunday…insyaallah

By (the Token of) Time (through the ages), Verily Man is in loss, Except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy. ( 103:1-3 )

“Bergeraklah, kerana diam bisa mematikan. Sebesar-besar keuntungan di dunia adalah menyibukkan dirimu setiap saat pada aktiviti yang memberikan manfaat paling banyak di Akhirat. Menyia-nyiakan waktu, lebih bahaya daripada kematian. Kerana ia memutuskan mu daripada ALLAH dan Akhirat. Sedangkan kematian hanya memutuskan mu dari dunia dan penghuninya.” - Ibnu Qayyim al-Jauziyah -

there’s grass of summer,yellow leaves of fall and white snow of winter

kompem takle tengok kat blakang umah aku kat KB ni.
