Da'ie workshop oleh Dr Zakir Naik - pengajaran yang dalam mengenai rezeki

Satu hari masa tengah sibuk, dapat satu mesej. Dari Bro Mas Yuri. Invitation to Training by Dr Zakir Naik. Katanya ini closed event dan hanya boleh datang by invitation. I checked my calendar. The training was on 4th Oct, my examinations were on 2nd and 7th October. I had programs oleh IKRAM that 6th. I kept silence and did not reply. Hoping there would be a way out. To spend RM70 for me for that short amount of time was not wise. My pocket was indeed on a strict ration. Nak pinjam kereta ikhwah, tak ada yang idle. Nak tidur pula, ada program packed before dan after 4th. Program DnT. Kena amanah dengan janji dan masa. Punya lah fikir option. No reasonable options left.

My heart sank. Yes, indeed. It was a disappointing situation for me. I couldn't come to any of his talk. I hoped at least I could make it to the training. Just to meet him face to face. Punya lah kecewa dan sedih. Hati paksa juga untuk redha. Ada hikmah Allah buat macam ini. Akhirnya reply mesej Bro Mas. Cakap yang aku tak boleh pergi. Pergi mengadu sedih pada Allah. Doa sungguh-sungguh biar Allah tunjuk hikmah. Kenapa aku tak dapat pergi to even satu pun talk dia? Untuk aku, there are only a few things that can get my blood boiling. Aside from Palestine, gaming, superbike, math and science, it is majlis ilmu macam ini lah. Jadi bila tak dapat, boleh faham macam mana kecewa aku jadi.

Aku pun membawa diri lah di hadapan Allah. Minta ditenangkan hati (ceh). Alhamdulillah, aku lama-lama redha. Walaupun ada kecewa, tapi yakin hikmah Allah. 

Sampai satu hari, IKRAM Penang anjur MABIT. Selepas slot malam, kami pergi makan roti canai. Punya lah sporting YDP IKRAM Penang, dah lah ada title IR. Rilek je dengan kami mahasiswa ni. Lepas habis makan, kami kembali ke tempat Mabit. Masa itu ada dua ikhwah minta aku ajar pasal Bible dan Quran. Ikhwah tu anak usrah dia classmate aku, jadi anak usrah dia cerita lah pasal aku pada ikhwah tu. Aku pun buat bulatan di satu sudut kat surau, present topic Bible, Al Quran, its authenticity and comparison. Jadi lah macam halaqah sikit, sebab masa tu masa free jadi adalah beberapa ikhwah join sekali dengar presentation aku di sudut surau tu. Panjang jugak. Dah habis present, aku bukak soalan. Kemudian bila dah bersurai ada seorang akhi ni, pelawa aku nak tak jadi wakil Hidayah Centre Pinang pergi training 4th October. Aku masa mula-mula dengar macam tak percaya. 

Aku minta dia ulang balik point dan detail. Yang transportation semua disponsor etc. Aku pun macam terkejut. Aku jabat tangan dia kuat-kuat, sebab gembira gila. Nak peluk segan, sebab dia pakcik umur 40 lebih. Lepas bagi nama penuh dan IC aku sujud syukur. Menitis air mata keharuan (ceh lagi sekali). Masa itu memang aku seronok, aku doa sampai hati Allah usik aku macam ni. 

Aku pun clarify pada Bro Mas. Ada lagi dua slot rupanya. Aku pun ajak lah dua orang classmates aku. Yang anak usrah ikhwah yang tanya aku tu lah. Asalnya ajak ikhwah, tapi semua ada paper masa tu. 

Kami bertolak ke KL pukul 12 dari Penang, sampai terus solat di Masjid Negeri. Masa habis solat itu, aku rasa macam familiar sangat suara imam. Rupanya imam tu guru aku masa di Akademi Imam dulu, tahun 2009. Aku pernah cerita dulu, peserta akademi ini bacaan tajwid dia sangat outstanding me EXCLUDED. 30 orang satu Selangor dan KL. Tapi masa kami di akademi, perh, kaw-kaw kena tegur al fatihah sahaja dua jam lebih. Tajwid dan bacaan imam ini memang lah sangat kemas dan mantap. Tapi nak jumpa lepas solat tak sempat. Dia dah pergi. Cukup lah, tengok muka pun dah sejuk hati. Once a teacher, forever a teacher. Aku pun panjatkan doa untuk ustaz tu.

Kami akhirnya sampai di Concorde Hotel Shah Alam.

Not much to be said. Masa di sana. Cuma, bila nampak Dr Zakir Naik in front of me. My eyes swelled. Rasa macam nak menangis. It's not easy for me to be there, but Allah put me there. Right where I want to be. It's like Allah told me, that my presence there not because I wanted to be there, but Allah wanted me to be there. That's why I failed to find a way to attend the program the first time, and then Allah somehow put myself and brought me to the program the way He wanted. Allahu Akbar. Wastaghfirullah. Walhamdulillah. 

Dr Zakir Naik's presence was what inspired me. He being there in front of me, the feeling was indescribable. 

Plus masa forum ada Dr Amir Farid (I am still on a research about him, the way he talked and the way he acted during the URI program was different. I bet there are reasons for it, he's not calang-calang. I want to learn from him one day. I love to know what his views. I'll make him my teacher one day), Bro Shah dan Pakcik Nicholas. Bro Shah dan Pakcik Nicholas were there masa Ramadhan lepas untuk Majlis Iftar Perdana Hidayah Centre. I still remembered how pelik ikhwah Penang were when they came, I hugged them and talked with them macam kami dah kenal lama. Bro Shah is my teacher. I met him few times luar dari FCR. And Pakcik Nicholas lagi lah. Anak pakcik tu kawan baik aku, Omar. Selalu je pergi rumah dia, siap pinjam buku dia lagi in which sampai sekarang tak pulang-pulang (-.-). Jadi, pakcik tu memang kenal aku dari sekolah rendah lagi. These are all great teachers. I want to learn from them as much as I could.

Moga Allah beri kemudahan dan kekuatan untuk aku terus istiqamah di Penang. 

I just wanted to tell you, that my journey to KL was indeed amazing. How finally I was able to attend the program. It may not seem significant to you, but to me it was indeed a sign of Allah's wisdom. Moga Allah menjadikan aku asbab untuk tarik kawan-kawan aku di sini ke jalanMu. Amin.
