    Sometimes I wonder, whose prayers has been granted by Allah to the point that I can achieve what I have achieved right now. If I were only relying on my own deeds and efforts, I would never deserve everything and anything that I have today. Sometimes I wonder, if I am deserving of all the prayers that my mom always recites for me in secrets at day and night. Even if I dedicate my whole life to payback what she always did to me, I would forever be incapable of doing the exact same thing. For the prayers that reached the heavens, knocked the door of His abundant mercy For the prayers that we are aware or unaware of, known…

    By the time we ate it, we just stare at each other in silence…. “omg.” “omg.” “wait. OMG hoW COME THIS IS SO GOOD” “like sushi!!!!” “Omg. What is this taste.” “I don’t know but it’s just amazing”  My summer vacation started on 20th July 2018, I spent a few days traveling around Busan and hanging out with my friends. On Wednesday, 26th July 2018, my cousin and aunt happened to visit Korea so I picked them up in Busan Station and headed to the hotel near Jagalchi Market around 2 p.m. For your information, it was sooo hot in Korea. Waaaay hotter than in Indonesia I swear!! It’s so humid and the heat-wave is unbelievable, when you’re going outside the room it’s…

      “The capacity to learn is a gift; The ability to learn is a skill; the willingness to learn is a choice” -Brian Herbert Now that I see my country in a wider perspective from a far distance. I still could not fully comprehend why people keep on making war between each other, debating certain topics that should not be debated at all. A lot of people talk in a loud voice without knowledge claiming that what they do is to educate people yet it was all nothing but ignorance and an empty glass. They refuse to understand in the very first place.   I do not expect people to agree or believe what I believe, but I do expect people…

Sebenernya pengen banget share banyak banget cuma banyak banget jadi bingung (?) hahaha lol. “The seeking of knowledge is obligatory for every Muslim.” -Hadith At Tirmidhi   “It is not the knowledge who should come to you, it is you who should come to the knowledge.”-Imam Malik   “Islam is knowledge based. The more you know it, you’ll love it. The less you know about it, the more you will dwindle.” -Mufti Ismail Menk   “The more knowledge (of deen) you have the more humble you should be. Instead, you are becoming judgemental.” -Nouman Ali Khan *** 1.…

    wHOA, I remember I arrived in Korea on 19th February, it means I have been here for almost 6 months! It’s my first time of being away from home in such a long time. I did finish my first semester of the Korean Language Program at Silla University and currently on vacation until September.   Does that mean you’re going to College soon?? nO. Well, I don’t know but I am a bit pessimistic because I didn’t do well on TOPIK 56th. I don’t think I can get level 5/6 soon hahahaa it’s so hard. I don’t know, I am still waiting for the results.   *** If you’re a KGSP Scholar, this 1 year Korean Language Training is obligatory before going to…
