Bismillah.
Buya Hamka is one of individuals that I look up to. At first, I only fell in love for his writings, then after acquired about him, I admire his background, his effort and his view of life.
One day when I was at home in my comfort and safest zone that I almost at times wanted to give in to that zone forever, I browsed tru his sayings and this one got me to unwrap myself from the cozy blanket immediately;
Salah satu pengerdilan terkejam dalam hidup adalah membiarkan pikiran yang cemerlang menjadi budak bagi tubuh yang malas, yang mendahulukan istirahat sebelum lelah. – HAMKA
From my view, what Hamka is trying to deliver is that your ideas can bring you anywhere you want to be if only if you have a determination to fight against your malas. The biggest enemy to success for human being is no one but our temptation to give in, all-day relaxing and resting because yes to many of us rest comes before the work. Gosh,that is so me.
Today is my day 3 at my new environment for a new adventure. I do like the environment so far but it is too early to decide if this is truly what I want to do in the future.
I was not sure of this path at first not even after I had made the decision , I am not even sure if this is the one for me up until now. But I feel peace in my heart. I really like of what I have read from this website when I searched for "when and how to perform istikharah prayer".
Rasulullah SAW bersabda: “Di antara kebahagiaan anak Adam ialah Solat Istikharah (minta pilih) daripada Allah Taala dalam segala urusannya dan di antara kecelakaan anak Adam ialah meninggalkan solat Istikharah daripada Allah pada segala urusannya.”
I had always wanted Him to listen to my wishes with excuse that they were all for my own good. But while desperately I wanted Him to listen to me, I had not once wanted to hear to His guidance. Selfish me. He knows the best and if we ask for His guidance, He will light the way for us, make it easy and easier.
In the latter context, I find the further elaboration from Mizi Wahid in his book, Call Upon Him is reliable and straight-forward.
He mentioned that even after you have made the decision, you need to continuously asking for His guidance. Do istikharah even after the decision has been made because "decision has been made" doesn't signal anything. Ask for guidance until you find peace in your heart with your decision.
And never forget to be grateful for His blessings, He will bless us more,
because He knows we like what He has blessed us with!
