2 Cinta – Prioritise 1

Saturday, 9th February 2019

Key Events of the day:
– aLIVE field trip to Discovery Centre
– Tahfiz class with reminders
– Halaqah at Masjid Omar Kampung Melaka

So glad I was able to make time for this trip. They were soooo adorbsz mashaAllah. Stay curious and cheerful ok! ❤

As the fieldtrip ended at 12pm, I had time to drop by MKS and to finally attend tahfiz class. Huhu. I love this class. Ustazah Zahidah has this mini sharings at the start of the session. So today’s sharing was about prioritising. We need to plan our time around Quran. But what really got to me was when she mentioned about music. Hatta nasyid sekalipun, kurangkan. Kalau boleh, stop. Sebab…

Dua cinta tak mungkin menghuni di hati.

Music and the Quran will try to compete with each other. Both are something that you listen and recite/sing. So one must stay focused in order to memorise well.

I felt that this hit home as I was listening to so many nasyids as of late to the point that I find myself humming these instead of revising the Holy Book. It’s so hard to change our habits kan… But I need to try. I must. Doakan ye..

The plan was to do work at MKS while waiting for Asar and then travel to Chinatown for halaqah. Instead, I decided to go back home. Home = lepak.

I told Nadiah that I would need to skip halaqah as I didn’t finish my work. But upon hearing other sisters who were sick or who came from the west and those who still manage to find time after work, I felt so motivated and went for the halaqah. Alhamdulillah for DTL. :’)

Main takeaway from halaqah was about 5 before 5. Sentap sangat as I currently grapple with masa lapang sebelum masa sempit. Bila dah lapang, lapaaaang. Bila dah sempit, fuh stressnye mashaAllah.

I hope today will remind me to be thankful for the presence of baby bro. Somehow, I feel safe walking home with him in Chinatown after our halaqah at masjid Omar Kampung Melaka. He had his Perdaus class there too.

That night, I received some reminders about Quran on Telegram. Here is one:
