Assalamu’alaikum,
Should have posted ‘road to jannah’ post more than once a week.
Yes, I attend usrah. I love attending talks. Used to.
Recently I lost it.
I stop watching ceramahs. I stop attending talks. I stop being active. Basically, I stop doing anything useful. I stop having that mindset of preaching people towards being good and preach to others too. Maybe I stop preaching myself too. In fact, even my ‘ibadah and hafazan are not something that I can be proud of. I still listen to mufti’s talk. But I stopped reading books. And start reading more facebooks or browsing through instagrams.
I wish for a comfort zone. Resting at home. Jalan-jalan during weekends. Doing nothing useful. Dating. In the end.. I feel empty.
My days are becoming repetitive. Weekends then weekdays then weekends then weekdays. I don’t have anything that I’m looking forward to. Basically, I think I have lost directions.
Of course I’m not saying that attending those talks and usrahs will guarantee you to jannah. No. Of course not.
However, it is a way for you to become closer to Allah. How can do things without learning how to do it first? Pandai sendirinya kali?
Usrah is some kind of support system. Of course it’s not perfect and no one is perfect. But we have to try to reach up the sky.
“Remember Me; I will remember you. And be grateful to Me and do not deny Me.” [2:152]
Remember, it’s up to ourselves. What do you want in this life?
This life is temporary.
What we want is far but actually the deadline is closer than you think.
Remember Me. How can you remember Allah? By doing ibadahs. Do all the fardhu first. Perfect all your ibadah fardhu first. Then followed by sunnah. (This is what I got from some talks I heard today).
Do you feel calm reading this post? If yes, it comes from Allah. If not, then every weaknesses in this post come from myself.
