Bismillahirrahmanirrahim..
Life in the university..
be a smart and clever student is a gift
But be responsible and committed to the work/task given to us is much more noteworthy
at least, for what I've seen for the past four six years..
I think that's why some of our lecturers are really strict to give exemption to pass the course especially for those who are always absent in class, not attending the quizzes, not doing the assignments and so on and so forth. How they can commit to more bigger Responsibility after graduating when they entering the working life if simple thing like entering the lectures during the undergraduate studies (Im not saying to be punctual, or coming before the lecturer come) cannot be done ?..their biggest worry perhaps. A simple question to rational back all the decisions that have been made by our lecturers without putting the blame on them.
But then, while thinking and having some conversations with my friends while waiting for our convocation day (heard that it will change to this November) we came to one conclusion. After all, it is all about Rezeki. It is all Qada' and Qadar Allah that has been written in Luh Mahfuz. Some people are working so hard, but with Allah knowledge He holds the reward until a certain period of time that only He knows when the best time to give. Some people Allah makes their life easy to get whatever they want.
وَلَنَبۡلُوَنَّكُمۡ حَتَّىٰ نَعۡلَمَ ٱلۡمُجَـٰهِدِينَ مِنكُمۡ وَٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ وَنَبۡلُوَاْ أَخۡبَارَكُمۡ
And verily We shall try you till We know those of you who strive hard (for the cause of Allah) and the steadfast, and till We test your record.
Dan sesungguhnya Kami akan mengujimu sehingga Kami mengetahui orang-orang yang berjuang dan orang-orang yang sabar (dalam menjalankan perintah Kami), dan hingga kami dapat memastikan keadaan dirimu dengan sebenar-benarnya.
(Muhammad, 31)
Death, sustenance and mate have all been determined by Allah before since we born in this world. Our duty is to do the best that we could as servant, khalifah, student, daughter and whatever responsibility that we are holding right now.
I'm writing this, at this early morning as tears and sadness knocking myself since yesterday after looking at a 'banggla contractor' having a banana and another one of his friend taking a cup of maggi for their dinner at kedai runcit Kiki. Betapa kurangnya kita bersyukur dengan rezeki dan takdir yang Allah dah berikan kat kita. Dan kita masih merungut itu dan ini. Dan senang-senang meremehkan rezeki dan nikmat yang ada.. Astaghfirullah..

Time to go to the class. Yes, I forgot to tell u, I'm continuing my Master. Rezeki. InsyaAllah.
