my dream house

I wish one day, I will have a green house beside my kitchen. I want to plant veges on my own.

JOB INTERVIEW IN ARABIC LANGUAGE SCOPE

Yesterday, I had my fifth interview during my master’s studies period.

The list of companies that I’ve attended as below:

1.      Translator at a law firm-succeed but not attend the job

2.      Tv Al-Hijrah broadcaster-failed

3.      Arabicara as an Arabic teacher- iv on phone and succeed

4.      Uia CELPAD teacher- failed during the exam, need to compete with Arabs and also PhD candidates.

5.      PCOM as an executive secretary- failed (updated)

So yesterday (22/5/2018), I went to PCOM and had my iv session with 2 Arab guys from Palestine. One named Haris-the boss, and the other guy named Muslim, the chief of PCOM.

At the beginning, I was not interested to apply for this position. I knew about this job vacancy from a friend. But then, in an event organized by Brikid, I met Muslim. He encouraged me to send my resume since I was about to finish my studies.

When I arrived at their office in Titiwangsa, I had a chat with my friend and she told me that an applicant has failed due to her lacking in English even though she already has her master and scored 4 flat in political studies! I felt a little bit scared to hear the story as I wasn’t that excellent in English too.

During the interview:

I was asked to introduce myself. What is my opinion regarding the new government? Who is the chief minister from Amanah? -it's the CM of Melaka. I can’t answer that. What about my personality test? What do I know about PCOM? What was my view about PCOM Fb’s page? I can’t answer that also because I really don’t remember the contents. Do I have any experience as a group leader and giving out tasks to the group members? What do I want to be? I answered that I want to be a lecturer but I need to pursue my studies to be a lecturer. From this question, I think it’s the best to answer a career which 
is related to the job we asked for. For example, I am intended to participate in volunteering or seeking a job associated with the Palestinians and other refugees or something like that.

At the end of the day, I knew that I can do better IF and only if I was well-prepared. It was my mistake to take this opportunity lightly. I was influenced to hear my friend’s experience having an iv with them, as she was asked simple questions about her background and something related to it. The position she applied for wasn’t the same position as I applied for, and that clarifies the different levels of our interview.

From this iv, I learned that:

1.    We need to know about the company that we apply for very well.

2.    We need to be knowledgeable and updated on the news.

3.    We have to know our career goal.

4.    What is our added value that will make them choose us?

5.    Read more and master the English and Arabic language, both in speaking and writing.

For all the things happened, I thank God for this opportunity and for giving me time to contemplate this life.

Aku ada buat dakwah ke?

I just so touched when this morning I saw a video in fb, how an Australian man converted to Islam. He was converted by ust firdaus wong and masyaLLAH he is also a revert Muslim. I rasa malu dgn diri sendiri yg sejak lahir muslim, belajar dalam Bahasa arab, ajar mengaji (berbayar) ni pun masih solat subuh gajah. Pagi tu I had a deep thought thinking of what job I should apply after graduating (insyaAllah in nov 2018). Bila tgk video tu terus rasa nak join the organization-Multiracial Reverted Muslims - MRM, buat street dakwah. Kalau hidup kat dunia ni duk kisah pada diri sendiri je memang tak ke mana kita. I need to start thinking of how to make benefit from my life in this dunya for my living in the hereafter. I also feel a bit upset of my decision making utk taknak pergi usrah and hafazan class, making excuses and all. Take anything for granted. Astaghfirullah3x.

Secondly, I terbaca comment kt fb tentang betapa tingginya keperluan guru agama and Bahasa arab diperlukan di sabah Sarawak. I pernah tahu pasal tu, dan kebetulan mmg pernah ada student from arabicara dari sabah yg try jugak ajar anak dia Bahasa arab even she just knew nothing but a little about Bahasa arab. Sekolah kat sana mmg ada buku teks Bahasa arab, tp guru yang nak mengajar yang tak ada. And this commenter said, kalau dia selfish, mmg dia akan enroll master this sept but he can’t. He has a big responsibility of being a teacher and he did it! MasyaAllah, may Allah bless this brother from the scarification he made T.T

So kalau betul hidup di dunia utk akhirat, I need to join any organization, buat dakwah. I berhajat one day I can teach people mengaji without ambik upah. I need to have a high salary, buat donation, support ngo2, and mengajar secara sukarela.

And not to forget, embrace everything around me and not taking them for granted. Commit usrah to learn more about Islam, correcting myself, kutip nasihat and panjangkan lagi tali dakwah. Tali dakwah akan terus memanjang dan disambut oleh orang2 yg bersedia dengannya, tapi takkan kita just nak tgk saja, tak nak jadi orang yg menyambungnya???

Watch the video:

Apa tujuan sambung belajar??

Semalam ada liqa dgn murobbi baru. Alhamdulillah, bersyukur kerana tergerak jugak hati utk pergi usrah sbb walaupun semalam hanya sempat buat taaruf dgn usrahmate yg baru (and ada juga 3 org usrahmate yg lama), still byk sgt dpt input yg berguna.

Disebabkan ini ialah usrah for PG students, masing2 share academic background masing2. It was truly wide opening session bila kita dgr tajuk kajian masing2 dan interest field mereka. At first, I was really shy to share my research topic sebab tak rasa pun my thesis will contribute much to society. It was because, my usrahmate yg perkenalkan diri before me said her research paper was about takaful. Generally her paper akan kaji pasal system takaful di mana pada harini, hanya org berkemampuan shj yg mampu untuk bayar. Tapi sebenanya konsep takaful ialah dia saling membantu. Kalau org miskin tak mampu bayar takaful, jadi apakah cara yg membolehkan mereka menerima takaful itu? And my murobbi did ask her, after you siap kajian, kat peringkat mana hasil kajian you boleh diaplikasikan? And she said, she targeted corporate people. And her paper topic pun sgt menarik minat semua org sebab berkait rapat dgn maslahah org Islam.  

And lagi sorg ukhti pulak, dia masa degree ambil bahagian mass communication atau media com (lebih kurang macam tu). So sekarang dia dah kerja dgn NGO Palestine(PCOM: Palestinian Cultural Organization – Malaysia) yg berfungsi sebagai org tgh antara ngo2 malaysia sprt MyCare dan sewaktu dgnnya dgn Palestine. Dia ibarat embassy of palestin tapi NGO punya organization. Ukhti tu seorang shj malay yg kerja di situ. Dia byk uruskan perkara2 yg melibatkan orang besar@ kerajaan something like that. Dia cerita yang org2 palestin ni pandai2. Bila cakap pasal academic, mereka mmg target utk belajar shgg phD. Jadi ukhti ni sedikit sebanyak menjadi tekad utk further study sampai phd memandangkan semua collegue dia pun master and phd candidates. So, skrg this ukhti is in her first sem in master, and Alhamdulillah, dia dpt scholarship drp kerajaan turki utk buat master di sana. Dia katanya mmg sgt passionate utk membuat kajian sehinggakan masa degree dulu, doc dia pilih paper dia utk dipublishkan. So bila macam tu, dia lagi la berkobar-kobar utk sambung master. And lebih mengujakan lagi, dia akan buat research mengenai conflict Israel-palestin! Ini lagi wow! Sbb international issue punya level dia kaji.

So masa my turn utk taaruf session, I pun cerita laa pasal bidang I iaitu Bahasa arab dgn shy-shy cat nya.. sbb rasa inferior betul dgn org lain. To my surprised they actually sgt interested nak tahu pasal kajian i. and diorg rasa awesome gila I boleh further study in Arabic. From there, I rasa terharu la jugak sbb org lain sebenarnya pandang tinggi je bidang Bahasa arab ni dan tak seperti yg I rasa rasakan selama ni. So apa yg I rasakan sebelum ni? I cuma rasakan bidang ni sgt tak popular dan tak wow sgt pun berbanding bidang2 lain. So insyAllah lepas ni I akan cuba lebih mengahrgai nikmat ilmu yg Allah kasi ni sbb ramai yg ingin mendalami bhs arab tapi mereka tak mampu. Semoga, I boleh ajar ramai org mengenali dan memahami bhs arab yang akhirnya bertujuan utk lebih memahami isi kandungan al-quran itu sendiri, insyaAllah.

Untuk penutup I suka sgt dgn kata2 penutup dari murobbi i. dia kata semoga kita ni menjadi org yg ada barokah. Barokah pada ilmunya, waktunya, rezekinya, umurnya and everything. Cuba bayangkan kita ni menjadi org yg barokah, tak tergambar rasanya betapa byk kebaikan yg kita boleh salurkan hatta kita dah mati sekalipun, sepertimana ulama2 terdahulu, umur mereka tak panjang pun, tp kerana keberkatan pada umurnya, dirinya, dia mampu beri contribution hingga ke hari ini. Wallahuaklam.

kelas murajaah part 3

5 ways to memorize the quran

1.          listen to qurro’ like محمود خليل الحصاري، محمد صديق المنشاوي.

2.          keep repeating

3.          read in solah

4.          do not rush

5.          do tasmik to the mutqin person

من لم يكنْ رُحْلَةً لن يكونَ رُحَلَة

who do not seek(travel) for knowledge, 
people will not come to him for knowledge.

banyakkan pergi ke kelas2, syeikh2 luar drp uni. Sbb apa yg diberikan uni hanyalah رؤوس الأقلام (basic things)
Orang yg graduate drp kuliah AQ & AS belum tentu ada ijazah qiraah. Dia perlu keluar, mencari ilmu seperti ulama terdahulu. Mereka mengembara beribu-ribu batu hanya untuk mendapatkan satu hadis.
Ada kisah di mana seorang tabiin (maybe) dia pergi berjumpa seorang budak hanya untul mendapatkan makna satu kalimah drp ayat berikut:

إِنَّهُ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ (الانشقاق:14)

lelaki itu ingin mengetahui maksud perkataan يحور, 

dia bertanya kepada budak itu; mana ayah kamu

budak itu menjawab: هو سوف يحور بعد العصر 

maksudnya : "dia akan pulang selepas asar"

and the guy suddenly realized that he already get what he wants to know. The end.

my futuristic idea

1. 29/12/2017 - I imagined there will be an auto car yg akan alih diri dia sendiri sbb dia block parking orang masa tuan dia tak ada. Kereta tu pandai bawak diri dan kembali semula ke tempat parking tuannya atau dia masuk ke dlm parking yg telah kosong tadi.
2. 15/5/2018- dah ada pengeluaran jem tp dalam bekas mcm pencuci muka- tak perlu gunakan sudu.
