LYRIC REFLECTION

I know I’m waiting

Waiting for something

Something to happen to me

But this waiting comes with

Trials and challenges

Nothing in life is free

I wish that somehow

You’d tell me out aloud

That on that day I’ll be ok

But we’ll never know cause

That’s not the way it works

Help me find my way

 

My Lord show me right from wrong

Give me light make me strong

I know the road is long

Make me strong

Sometimes it just gets too much

I feel that I’ve lost touch

I know the road is long

Make me strong

 

I know I’m waiting

Yearning for something

Something known only to me

This waiting comes with

Trials and challenges

Life is one mystery

I wish that somehow

You’d tell me out aloud

That on that day you’ll forgive me

But we’ll never know cause

That’s not the way it works

I beg for your mercy

From this song, we all know that our final destination is paradise, we are in this world only the a stopover to head to the actual destination. Along way in this Dunya, there are many challenge and trial from Allah. May Allah guide us to the right path and make us strong. 

VIDEO REFLECTION

Negative thought By Yasmin Mogahed

From the video, what I learn that is our bad thought and self hate is actually from Syaitan. When we hate ourselves, we gonna don't have energy to worship to Allah or to repent or anything. We cannot let our desire and Syaitaan control us, so let's change the negative thought with the positive one. 

VIDEO REFLECTION

One of the most powerful cure of the heart by Yasmin Mogahed 

In this video, the most powerful cure of our heart is though Istigfar. Our faults are the primary cause of our hearts' illnesses, one of which is uncertainty. For example, we may be perplexed, unsure of what to do or where to go. Astagfirullah, that is a sign of our sin, and we must cleanse it.

'What Islam say about challenges and difficulties in Life?

Problem-solving is one of life’s great challenges for most human beings. Most of us struggle with the daily hardships of life without always having practical problem solving strategy.

So how can you overcome hardship and solve the problems you face using Islam and its guidance? Islam provides guidelines and a method for living daily life. If you follow this way of life, the overall effect it will have your life is that it will give you the mindset and tools to be able to deal with your problems. Mindset is probably the most important way to deal with problems because our world is controlled by the way we see it. A persons psychology is 50% of the way to a solution as solutions all start in the mind.

1. OWN YOUR OWN PROBLEM: The solution to this problem is to take ownership of every challenge you face. In other words take responsibility for dealing with your challenges and become proactive in trying to find a solution to it. If you feel like you own your problem, then like any owner you have the ability to choose how you will respond to it, control it or shape it.

2. RELY ON ALLAH THE MOST POWERFUL: “those who are patient and upon their Lord they put their reliance”. Surat Al-Ankabut 59. In this verse Allah describes the believers as people who put their reliance upon God. We will face different trials in our lives but the one most powerful Factor in preserving our sanity is to connect to our creator the one who has all power over our situation. It’s like when you have a problem you go to the one that can solve it, which gives you peace of mind knowing that there will be taken care of.

3. BECOME THE PROBLEM SOLVER:  The solution is to change your focus and start looking for way around this problem. Sometimes the problem can be solved and other times we can find ways around the problem. It’s important to take a step back and look at all of the factors and resources that we have that can be used as leverage against the problems.

4. ZOOM OUT AND VIEW THE BIG PICTURE: Looking at the bigger picture helps us to understand that problems are a part of life’s journey. One of the challenges we face is that we expect to go through life with no problems. Yet Allah informs us that indeed we will have challenges. “Do the people think that they will say they believe and that they will not be tested, indeed we will test them like we tested those who came before them”. Surat Al-Ankabut 2.

5. BE PATIENT AND YOU WILL WIN: Tell yourself whenever you face a problem: “I can handle it because Allah would never give me something I can’t handle, I can handle it”. Ask Allah to show you the way to the solution and do it persistently like a child would ask a parent. Be positive that you will find a solution and then be patient and persist.
