"Cinta kita adalah cinta yang terbaik, kerana engkau meningkatkan imanku dan membantuku di dunia ini, dan kerana alasan itulah aku ingin bejumpa lagi denganmu di syurga kelak. Terima kasih Ya Allah, kejutanMu melahirkan cinta kepadaMu jua. Semuanya buatMu... Benarlah janji Engkau dulu."
"Pelihara agama Allah, Allah akan pelihara kita."
"Sesungguhnya ujian yang tiba dalam kehidupan kita untuk menguatkan bukan melemahkan, Allah amat merindui hati-hati yang jauh terpesong dari mengingati Allah, maka itu Allah berikan ujian supaya kita kembali berharap kepada Allah."
A heartfelt love story of two individuals who met through fate. This is the first non-fiction book I've read this year, I actually bought this book years ago but never I never really got the time to get around to it. So now, since I finally have all the time in this world, I figured I'd read it.
It's crazy to think about what these two amazing human beings went through. The ups and downs, the loss of a father at a young age and the trauma that is developed through that.
This book taught be so much, as someone that is still learning and have not tasted much of the sweetness and the bitterness of life, this book introduced me to one of the greatest things in life, which is the life before and after marriage through the Islamic way. It touches about love after marriage, which many people would get confused on that matter, they'd say, "How can you just blindly marry someone without getting to know them first?". From this book, it was shown that true halal love after marriage will make you happier and content than that of forbidden love before marriage, because forbidden love typically only sustain up until marriage.
Teachings I got from this:
- Selalu percaya dengan rancangan dan janji Allah, sebab dengan jalan Allah, hati pasti akan sentiasa tenteram dan tenang dan in shaa Allah syurgalah buat kitani di akhirat kelak. Indeed, Allah is the best planner of all.
- Manusia akan sentiasa buat salah, iman turun naik, kita semua inda sempurna, and that's okay, sebab itulah fitrah manusia yang ditetapkan oleh Allah. So we have to learn to understand the people around us, the evil ones could change to a better person the next day solely with Allah's consent.
- Apasaja ujian yang Allah berikan atu untuk perjuangan ke syurga, untuk mendapat pahala. Allah uji kerana Allah sayang.
- Setiap kesusahan ada nikmatnya.
- Pentingnya bertawakkal kepada Allah.
- The right person for us will come at the right time at the right moment. Solat istikaharah dan berdoa kepada Allah untuk permudahkan pilihan kalau ragu-ragu.
