Knowledge is Light

shakautu ila Waki` su’a hifdhi
wa arshada-ni an tark al-ma`asi
wa akhbara-ni bi anna ilman nur
wa nur Allah la yu`ta al-`as

The great Imam ash-Shafi’, he went to his teacher Waki`
Complaining about the weakness of his memory.
He told him, ‘abandon rebellion, for knowledge is a light
And the light of Allah is not bestowed upon a rebel.’

Am I rebellious? Astaghfirullah.

Jiwa memberontak. Rasa malas. Tak semangat. Baca buku pun agak liat. Apa nak jadi agaknya?

Mungkin kerana round tropical yang agak serabut ni, banyak perasaan tak puas hati, panas, dan banyak mengumpat.

Kesudahannya tanggung sendiri.

Exam minggu depan, tapi susahnyaaa lah nak revise.

Allah ampunkan saya.
