never jealous. never intimidated. never in competition.
Seven practical steps to help you face difficult situations.
1. Salah:
Make sure you stick to praying on time – 5 times a day. Never miss salah and do your best to pray each Salah with sincerity as if it’s your last salah in this world.
2. Read Quran:
This Quran is so beautiful that no matter what difficulties you face you’ll find solace in it.
3. Make Dua:
Especially the dua for removing anxiety.
“O Allaah, I take refuge in You from anxiety and sorrow, weakness and laziness, miserliness and cowardice, the burden of debts and from being over powered by men.”
Allahumma inni ‘a’udhubika minal hammi walhuzni, Wal’ajzi walkasali, walbukhli waljubni, Wa dal’id-daiyni wa ghalabatir-rajal
[Sahih al-Bukhari, 7/158]
4. Give Sadaqah:
Give lots of charity, as much as you can, because it helps push away hardship. And if you can’t give money, even kind words or physical sadaqah can do (i.e. helping people physically or emotionally).
5. Set Goals and Have Vision:
Don’t let shaytaan play with you and keep replaying the video of your hardship in your mind over and over again, move on! Set new goals, new projects, and remember you’re with Allah, nothing should stop you!
6. Wake up Early:
Wake up before fajr and work on your ideas and projects, or simply read Qur’an. Getting busy before day break is a definite way to move away from your hardship and overcome challenges. Get most of your ideas/work done in these early hours, these are blessed hours.
7. Hardship is Not Lost:
Remember, Allah will never forget the injustice/hardship you faced, so don’t worry about seeking revenge or trying to get justice.
“…Allah is not ever unjust to [His] servants.” [22:10]
In the end, I pray that Allah (Subhanahu Wa’Tala) removes all your ordeals and hardships, blesses you all with a good life and helps you remember Him day and night, for “Verily, with remembrance of Allah, do hearts find rest”. (Surah Ar-Ra’d , verse 28)
- Islam Practise
Never delay or neglect repentance/istighfaar & keep sending salwaat upon The Prophet ﷺ.

Just for record:
Saturday, 4/4/2020, 10 Sya’aban 1441H.
Today is day 18 Movement Control Order (MCO) in Malaysia due to the outbreak of Covid-19. It has been classified as pandemic by the WHO. The Covid-19 is started at Wuhan, China and now over 200 countries has been affected.
Majlis Keselamatan Negara (MKN) channel on Telegram was created to update current news about Covid-19 to all Malaysian.
End of March (or early April, I can’t remember), TSMY the new PM of Malaysia introduced Bantuan PRIHATIN Nasional (BPN) for all citizen of Malaysia.
I believed his last speech has touched the heart of many Malaysian:
“Saudara-saudari yang saya kasihi,
We are a nation at war with invisible forces. The situation we are now facing is unprecedented in history. And, this government may not be the government that you voted for. But I want all of you to know that this government cares for you. I resigned to the fact that I came in as your Prime Minister not at the best moment. I face political, economic and health crisis all at the same time.
This unprecedented situation of course requires unprecedented measures. So, my dear brothers and sisters, and the children of this beloved country, whether you are a Malay, Chinese, Indian, Sikh, Iban, Kadazan, Dusun, orang asal, please bear with me and my friends in the cabinet and the government. We are not perfect, but we are doing the best we can to pull through this crisis together, as one nation. God willing, we will come out stronger when this crisis ends and the dust settles. InsyaAllah.
Saya minta sokongan daripada saudara dan saudari sekalian, marilah kita berganding bahu mengharungi krisis ini bersama-sama.
Wabillahi al-taufik walhidayah wassalamu’alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.”
MCO is aimed at flattening the curve of Covid-19 (number of case/ time since first case).
1st phase MCO: 18/3/2020 - 31/3/2020
2nd phase of MCO: ¼/2020 - 14/4/2020

the concept of rizq is so beautiful man. like even when you eat a piece of fruit it was always written for you, from the moment it grew from the tree, it went through all these people and travelled all this way until it was in your hands. it was always meant to be yours. everything in this world that is meant to be yours has your name on it and Allah has willed it to eventually reach you, one way or another. from every rice grain you’ll ever eat, to every person you’ll ever love. it’s so comforting to think about.
