D572~

 Bismillah. 9 Oct. Another routine. Today I start the working engine a bit late due to unpredictable and miracle things that happened to me to clarify and settle first. Whatever it is, I need to settle my studies very soon. very possible. Insha Allah. Ok, now I wanna continue.  

D566 ~ Romantic Sunday..

Bismillah. 3rd October. As usual routine at my workplace. Hope. Dream. Re-hoping and re-dreaming again, we can go travel and have a nice day with our loved ones. Travelling leaves you speechless then turns you into a storyteller (Ibn Battuta). Correct! "Travel isn't always pretty. It isn't always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that's okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind." Anthony Bourdain.

“Traveling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” – Ibn Battuta 

Oh, to the disclaimer, the title is the song I attach to this blog because I love the music, relaxing and making me always smile. Even I do not know the meaning of this song. It feels good, heartwarming, and instantly so feel fresh, a healing therapy of this music and makes feeling energetic and so captivating to do my work even on Sunday haha... Shalallaalaa..... Lalallala... Why today? Alhamdulillah. Even though I have a lot of things to do, Sunday, I have to work, work and make the fourth quarter of 2021. I must push myself to achieve only one of my goals for this year. Ya Allah allows me to submit ya, Allah... 

What else to write? I am so thankful for the beautiful friendships with all my friends since high school, degree, master and PhD mate.. my circle is very limited and exclusive. Those who are one of my friends you are the chosen one hehe... May the coming days and years our friendship remain beautiful and grow immensely. Haha...Shalalala. Shalala... Lalalalala... Ok, I need to pen off now and continue my work. Daa.....For you whom I always remember, my du'a goes to you where I cannot go... my du'a reaches you where my feet cannot get... through my du'a... I believe that I am close to you, although I cannot be right next to you. I may be thousands of miles away from you. But my du'a will always be with you... May Allah grants my du'a for you and multiply its blessing, goodness and brought to the Divine loves by infinity. Ameen.

D553 Ada apa dengan hari ini?

 Bismillah. 20 September. Hari isnin. Ada apa dengan hari ini? Ya ada. banyak. Paling penting lesen memandu aku luput hari ini. Semalaman hujan, pepagi lagi aku bersiap-siap sebab pagi ini ada mesyuarat, makanya aku kena cepat selesaikan urusan lesen mandu. Dalam renyai-renyai hujan, ku terus ke Bakri Agensi untuk renew, tinggal dulu nanti petang singgah ambil. Lepas tu teringat nak singgah baitulmal untuk ambil resit amanah Ustaz minggu lepas.

Sementara tunggu dikaunter, aku dapat mesej dari sahabatku iium, tapi mesej dari orang lain, pesanan dari seorang kakak yang aku sangat2 rindui. Subhanallah.. Allahuakbar... rupa-rupanya dia juga merindui aku. Betapa aku ingat segala kebaikan dalam perkenalan kami sejak 2008/2010 dulu. Aku tak terucap hanya menahan ayaq mata kat kaunter tu sbb diorang ingat apa tiba2 duk menangis depan kaunter.. sebak sbb aku hanya kirimkan rindu dalam doa buatnya dan buat arwah suaminya yg juga senior aku.. aku segan nak mesej, hanya utusan doa melalui Rabbi buatnya agar dia kuat, tabah, redha dan pasrah atas kehendak Illahi. Tapi Allah kirimkan melalui Kak Sak maklumat ini yang sangat dekat dengan aku.. Allah... aku speechless seharian hari ni. Begitulah doa itu senjata orang mukmin. Aku yakin, aku percaya dan aku yakin segala-galanya daripada Allah. tak boleh nak gambar rasa ni. Allahuakbar. Sesungguhnya aku berdoa buat semua sahabat-sahabat ku yang dikasihi kerana Allah, bertemu kita keranaNya, berpisah kita keranaNya, kasih sayang adalah keranaNya. Kalian selalu, selalu sentiasa berada dekat dalam doa-doaku...kerana mungkin aku tidak dekat bersama kalian waktu susah dan getir, hanya doa saja mampu aku kirimkan buat kalian atas segala kebaikan yang pernah kuterima daripada kalian. 

Adui... syahdu sungguh hari ni.. all my x-UM dan IIUM kalian abadi dalam doaku.

D551~Berdamai di hati

 Bismillah. Rutin hujung mingguku penuh kerelaan dan kedamaian di hati. Sepertimana dalam kajianku..iaitu konsep perdamaian atau keamanan adalah asas dan berakar dalam prinsip Islam itu sendiri bahawa ia merangkumi keseluruhan cara hidup Islam, undang-undang, ritual, zikir, dan adat istiadatnya. Islam pertama-tama kali mengajar individu itu untuk berdamai dengan Penciptanya dengan rela mematuhi segala perintah dan larangannya. Seterusnya mengajarkan kita untuk hidup harmoni sebagai anggota keluarga bangsa atau negara...

The concept of peace is fundamental and profound rooted in the tenets of Islam that it permeates the entire Islamic way of life, its laws, rituals and customs. Islam first teaches the individual to be at peace with his Creator by willingly obeying his commands. Then, it next teaches him to live in harmony as a member of a family, a people or a nation and finally lays down rules for the peaceful co-existence of the different peoples and countries themselves. 

D545 Believe it

Bismillah. Again. Clock in. Refine some important part. Review and revise them sloy. Believe it. And make it happens. Insha Allah. 

~Damai di❤️~

D544 Hold it tightly..

Bismillah. Clock in for the routine that I must complete for this year. This month of my born month and the fourth quarter of this year. I believe this month of completing all the important parts related to my study. Just a little. Hold it and dream it to submit as soon as possible. Don't care about what you think others may say, don't bother it. You just aim to focus on your final task before submission. Just a simple reminder to myself today, one of my seniors (when I was a degree) passed away due to C19. O Allah, forgive him and elevate his station among those who are guided. Send him along the path of those who came before, and forgive him and us, O Lord of the worlds. Enlarge for him his grave and shed light upon him in it. 

XX adding from missing 26th August 2021:

Bismillah. As usual, tight with the normal routine even though I took a quite long leave for the third quarter of 2021. Since next week, the fourth quarter will embark soon. I keep asking myself what actually I have achieved this year. Especially in the context of my study, I would say it is quite slow and almost out of my plan but marginally progress. Insha Allah the first month of the fourth quarter is greater quick progress to submit for the final viva voce. Insha Allah. In the meantime, all other parts for the enhancement in the research programmes shall not be forgotten since the full accreditation is just around the corner. Hopefully, this programme will be successfully accredited. More suspended is who is going to be the new leader. All are still questionable. As for me, writing this blog always brought me into a simple reminder of what actually still need to be done and should be completed. Yes of course a lot. And hopefully, I manage to do all the tasks without realising my limitation which I always keep reminding myself too aware of and improve from time to time. Remember, your journey should be finished soon. Insha Allah.

D526 Rainy day

Bismillah. Allah is the best planner. And always now and forever. I believe that. There is nothing to say for today since today it’s almost 6 o’clock almost a day filled with the official task, not the second I’ve managed to view or open for my thesis. The longing feeling is flying here and there in my mind. I don’t prefer to detail what is happening today; instead, I wrapped and found wisdom in everything that happened in my life. Yes. Get back with the words of Allah is the best planner. Sometimes we think we have done much on this aspect and grow it gently, but then in another perspective will look and see differently. But the thing is, we need to get other parties to evaluate and see what they see and observe. We feel we have done enough, but then they see it not enough, or not much has touched on this matter. Implicitly, I would say some people can see and value that aspect when others have covered it. How precious it is.. how niche it is for them and for us who appreciate and respect it. Okay lah, the rain is already seryat. I would stop now.. another perspective is, I am so thankful when some other parties see and value it how precious and important this emerged or special thing has been slowly disappeared….. hahha hanya jauhari yang mengenal manikam. Ok dears.. see you next post.

Kangar in raining day. Elhamdulillah.

D524 Cozy and easy

Bismillah. Sunday afternoon with basic routine survival. Continuing what has been left yesterday. Revising and updating as much as I can for the part of the critical appraisal argument.

Oh ya since I'd attended a webinar related to how you can avoid your major corrections during the viva, I would like to share some important points as follows:

a) title of the thesis is important because, by the title, the examiner will expect the content of the thesis.

b) title represent the aim of the study.

c) title also must clearly and directly represent the type of the research.

d) one thing that I learn new thing is the type of research. Normally the research has TWO types, namely basic/fundamental and applied. If we can define our research type, we will know the type of methodology, instruments, why we must triangulate, etc.

e) the literature review actually has several steps which by having a proper process, the candidate will find the gap of the study. The speaker said, normally the candidate always do a literature search that does not meet the level of reviewing and critically review the previous studies. I can simplify the steps here; first, find the underpinning theories, literature search, categorise, synthesise the literature to compare and contrast and find what is missing in the previous literature, arguing in terms of weaknesses and strengths. The report and provide our proposition. Then we can find our theoretical gap/ gap of knowledge.

f) underpinning theories at least three (3).

g) issue is related to our subject matter or topic, NOT the problems.

h) based on the issues/subject matter, then we can discuss the problems. But all the problems should come from the literature search and review.

i) significance of the study is important to highlight the stakeholders involved in our study.

j) scope of the study is the boundary of our research/ delimitation. Remember that this scope of the study should be bounded by our title.

All the important points that I jotted during the webinar yesterday. Alhamdulillah.

D523 Enduring and embracing the truth

Bismillah. It's okay to be okay in the place that you found not okay. Yesterday on 20th August, was a day that I've been revealed from the perspective that I've been thinking and praying for Allah SWT. Actually, at the bottom of my heart, I've been feeling something since 2017. I keep praying to Allah SWT that this is not a good sign when signing up as a friendship boat. But Alhamdulillah, this is a matter of time that Allah guides us, and time will reveal. ALhamdulillah. 

After realising everything, I've never felt regret for what's happening, but I feel more thankful for every little thing that Allah plans for me. Yes, of course, we have our own plan when we wanted to achieve something. I more feel the sense of thankful Alhamdulillah and smile with everything. May Allah forgive them and reward them with His Blessing and Loves. May they change to be better people Insha Allah. 

Saturday is a normal day to complete all the tasks that still need to be completed soon. Having a weekend without any distractions by the formal tasks makes me focus and maximise the things to do as much as possible. I believe that Allah really appreciates those who really work because of Him and because of the thrust that he or they need to fulfil. May Allah bless my weekend as PhD survival! 💖

D521 - be strong and just little bit more...

Today I keep reminding myself what's more important to complete at this point. This month shall be the independent month for me. Hold it tightly and neatly. You can do it.❤️
