Notes-to-self

DJ : Jadi apa yg Encik mahu kongsikan tentang isu dlm pekerjaan Encik? Adakah Encik pekerja Swasta atau Kerajaan?

Fadhil : Saya…saya sebenarnya cuma mahu kongsikan dgn para pendengar, saya tergolong dlm golongan kurang upaya (OKU). Oleh itu, boleh dikatakan untuk orang seperti saya dapat kerja memang susah. Walaubagaimanapun, setelah berusaha, saya dapat perkerjaan yang membayar saya RM200 setiap bulan. Turut mendapat bantuan sebanyak RM300. Maka pendapatan saya setiap bulan adalah RM500.

Apa yg saya mahu kongsikan adalah, walaupun pendapatan saya hanyalah RM500 setiap bulan, saya amat bersyukur, berasa lapang dan puas dengan nikmat yang dikurniakan berbanding ketika celik dulu. Sudah tentu saya juga mempunyai bil serta tanggungan dan sebagainya tapi semuanya Alhamdulillah sentiasa cukup. Kerana Allah SWT, saya sentiasa berusaha, Alhamdulillah, saya lebih bahagia sekarang.

I heard this on IKIM.fm while being stuck on the usual traffic. What he said was longer than what was written above, but the main point was that. We must always be reminded that Allah SWT is the Most powerful and He can make anything happen, even with little, He can make it as much. It’s what in our hearts, our nawaitu, our efforts and our prayers. This reminds me of the story about the plate of food that was shared between Rasulullah SAW and his companions, it was never-ending yet it was only on a small plate.

This made my day, Alhamdulillah, such a great reminder. We do tend to be wanting the biggest and awesomest of ‘things’ and yet our imaan are often neglected, nauzubillahi min zalik may Allah SWT bless us with continuous hidayah and never leave us astray. And may Allah SWT bless that inspiring man as well ;’)
