Semut: "Deep reading"

"Do you command people to good while you have forgotten your ownselves, and you are the readers of the Book? Do you have no sense?" (2:44)

"The ultimate gift that you can give to this ummah and to this world is actually do what you love. There are people who were born to be nuclear physicist. Einstein was born to be a physicist. He was not born to be a screen writer. Had Einstein wasted his time being a screen writer, the world would be a different place.

However, Shakespeare wasn't born to be a doctor. Allah didn't create Shakespeare so he could be an architect, engineer, doctor or other secure professions. Had Shakespeare not done his job, the world would be a different place."

"If you can be unknown, do so; it doesn't matter if you are not known and it doesn't matter if you are not praised. It doesn't matter if you are blameworthy according to people if you are praiseworthy with Allah the Mighty and Majestic"
Al-Fudayl Ibn 'Iyad

"Tanganku akan hancur didalam tanah

Yang tinggal hanya tulisanku

Moga sesiapa yang membaca tulisanku

Doakanlah keselamatanku dari azab neraka"
