::فََاسْتَقِمْ كَمَا أُمِرْتَ::

This is the most precious moment that everybody waiting for. We had completed our examination and everybody making their own planning about visiting places and doing something good for society. I would like to share with you some of my friends’ plan on how they spend their valuable summer.
*Azie,my junior in SASIC, first year IT student in one of University in US, is now joining an Islamic study programme in Ireland, UK. Suddenly I feel how lucky we are because in EGYPT, there is a lot of opportunity to learn Islamic studies compare than in Ireland! Egypt is the heaven of Islamic knowledge. There’s a lot of masyaikh here! What a waste if we don’t grab this golden opportunity to increase our Islamic knowledge here in Egypt. I just thought that it is better for her to choose Egypt as her option.
*Sara, fourth year medical student in Moscow will having her medical practical in Temerloh Hospital. Wow! This is what we call charity programme. I think most of medical student has the same plan for this summer right?! Owh! I almost forgotten to tell, she is also from SASIC.
*Midah, who currently undertaking third year of Islamic course in Al-Azhar university plans to be an ustazah at one of surau in her village. This is what I heard from her telephone conversation with her uncle. She wants to teach the elderly villagers about basic Islamic legislation by using a specific book. She is also encourages me to do so. But I’m not confident enough. My Islamic knowledge, especially in Islamic legislation is still in basic or intermediate level, since I’m taking Arabic course (hehehs excuses!!). What a shame . But I prefer to teach tafsir if I have the opportunity to do so at my resident park area my house. But I don’t know how the environment in my new place looks like. Nilai Impian seems like a new small city. I’ve never been there before because my families just moved out several months ago while I was here in Egypt. Fuh! I’m so anxiety about that.
But the most important is, how I’m going to spend my vacation in Malaysia? I had a very long list about what to do. I’ve named it MSP’07(My summer project 2007). But I think this page is not enough for me to write them all. Heh! So, it’s going to be a secret laa..hehe. However, of course all of us must have our own planning, right?! If we accomplished our planning, this summer will be the GREATEST HOLIDAY in our entire life. Believe it!

Alhamdulillah.Nampaknya keenam2 artikel perancang saya dalam bIsMiLlAh telah dilunaskan selama 3 hari. If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail! So, I’m not going to be a failure. I hope to write something in English even I haven’t speak this ligua franca that much, almost 4 years! Wow! What an ashamed for me. So I think my writing skill is going to be bad. Perhaps it is because, in Al-Azhar, we only learn English similar to level of Standard Four(in Malaysian secondary school).Moreover, we be taught using Arabic instead of English. Our lecturer simply translates everything in Arabic! This is because most of Egyptian has difficulty in speaking English. Thus, English is the subject that they failed most and it doesn’t matter to them because they are also reluctant to learn it .For us(foreigner) here, we found English is a simple subject. We just have to memorize the whole paragraph according to the questions given during tutorial class. Isn’t it simple?! It doesn’t require us to do more than that. So I have to word hard to master this language.
While I was chatting with my sister who pursuing her Master degree in Accounting at Victoria University, Australia last 2 months, I feel so embarrassed .She asked me to speak English while chatting! Alhamdulillah..even it was sounds broken, it was a good started to make me familiar with the use of verbs and grammar and knowing when and where to use them. Therefore, I’ve started to train myself to speak English with Armarian Medic students such as Fatin and Syafiqah. However, every Friday we will use Arabic in order to practice sunnah. As said by Hassan Al-Banna “Do speak Arabic. It’s one of the way to heightened prophet’s da’wah”
I still remember target that I had set when I was first arrived in Egypt for my first year of study on 15th Sept 2004;
1)I’ll master in Arabic
2)I’ll master in English
3)I’ll master in leadership
4)I’ll master in IT
5)I’ll memorize at least 1/3 Quran.
Hope all of you guys will do pray for me so I can achieve those goals and become better and better muslimah. I’ve only less than a year to make it real! Oh God! Please, do bless me for what I am about to do and doing…and I will not stop learning and learn and it will starts by ‘breaking the ice’!!.
