You smell OUTSTANDING!

Abu Musa Al-Ash`ari, radi Allahu 'anhu, reported that the Prophet, sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam, said,
"The example of a good companion and a bad one is the bearer of musk and the worker on the fires. A bearer of musk would give you some, you might buy some from him, or you might enjoy the fragrance of his musk. The worker on the fires, on the other hand, might spoil your clothes with sparks from his bellows, or you get a bad smell from him."
-Bukhari and Muslim-

[Lessons from this Hadith]
Who are the top 5 people you hang out with? List them. Now look at their qualities and you'll notice that you are a product of the sum of them. Do they have the outstanding qualities that you seek? If not, then it's time to find some bearers of musk that you can truly smell great from.

Be OUTSTANDING!

The Messenger of Allah, sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam, said,
"Allah has commanded that everything (one does) they should do it with excellence (ihsan). When you sacrifice, sacrifice well. Sharpen your knife and make it easy for the animal to be slaughtered."
- Muslim -


[Lessons from this hadith]
Don't just aim to be 'good', be
outstanding!
This is what is required of a Muslim, in everything
they do!

Dialah...

" Dan (ingatlah) Allah senantiasa mengetahui dengan mendalam akan apa jua yang kamu lakukan." ( Surah Al-Baqarah : 237 )

Dan katakanlah: "Kebenaran itu datangnya dari Tuhanmu; maka barangsiapa yang ingin (beriman) hendaklah ia beriman, dan barang siapa yang ingin (kafir) biarlah ia kafir". (Surah Al-Kahfi: 29)

"Allah menghapuskan apa yang Dia kehendaki dan menetapkan (apa yang Dia kehendaki), dan di sisi-Nya-lah terdapat Umulkitab (Lohmahfuz)." (Ar-Ra'd: 39)

Ilham buat Jiwa

“Maka Allah mengilhamkan kepada jiwa itu (jalan) kefasikan dan ketaqwaannya.
Sesungguhnya beruntunglah orang yang mensucikan jiwa itu,
dan sesungguhnya merugilah orang yang mengotorinya”
(Asy-syams:8-10)

Salary Theorem

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim...

Iklan sebentar untuk engineers...

Salary Theorem :

Why Engineers can never get better Pay than Businessman or the people who Own the business ?

Engineers learn :

Power = Work/Time (Work divided by Time)

Generally Accepted Norm :

Knowledge = Power
Time = Money

Therefore,
Knowledge = Work/Money

To find out how to get better Pay:

Money = Work/Knowledge

That means :

To maximize your Money, you either Work Like Crazy or
Minimize your Knowledge.

The more Knowledge you have (as for Engineers), the less Pay you receive.

For Engineers, even though they maximize their knowledge near infinity, their Pay is still like pennies.

So, to Engineers, the reason why this Businessman get a Lot of Money, is because of They Lack of Knowledge(near zero) as compared to theirs.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Jangan ini memalaskan anda untuk terus belajar.. the less pay you received here, it is much2 more honored to be a knowledgeable person..

Wallahua'lam...

Eight Things to Learn

Bismillahirrahimanirrahim...

I think most of you have read this through misg-net, but I want to post it here for others.

Eight Things to Learn

One time a scholar asked one of his students, "You have spent a long time with me, what have you learned?"

He said I've learned eight things:

First, I looked to the creation. Everyone has a loved one. When he goes to the grave, he leaves his loved one. Therefore, I made my loved one my good deeds; that way, they will be with me in the grave.

Second, I looked to the verse, "But as for him who feared to stand before his Lord and restrained his soul from lust," (79:40) therefore, I struggled against my desires so I could stay obeying Allah.

Third, I saw that if anyone has something with him that is worth something, he will protect it. Then I thought about the verse, "That which you have is wasted away; and that which is with Allah remains," (16:96) therefore, everything worth something with me I devoted to Him so it would be with Him for me.

Fourth, I saw the people seeking wealth, honor and positions and it was not worth anything to me. Then I thought about Allah's words, "….Lo, the noblest of you in the sight of Allah is the most aware of Allah,"(49:13) so I did my best to become aware of Allah in order to gain nobility in his sight.

Fifth, I saw the people being jealous towards each other and I looked at the verse, "We have apportioned among them their livelihood in the life of the world....."(43:32), so I left jealousy.

Sixth, I saw the people having enmity and I thought about the verse, "Lo, the devil is an enemy for you, so take him as an enemy…"(35:6), so I left enmity and I took the Satan as my only enemy.

Seventh, I saw them debasing themselves in search of sustenance and I thought about the verse, "And there is not a beast in the earth but the sustenance thereof depends on Allah……"(11:6), so I kept myself busy with my responsibilities toward Him and I left my property with Him.

Eighth, I found them relying on their business, buildings and health and I thought about the verse, "And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, He will suffice him"(65:3), therefore, I put my trust only in Allah.
