AlhamdulilLah! Like intelligent conversations, beautiful companionships are blessings bestowed by Allah SWT, which I cherish dearly. Never would I lose sight of what is important - Islam is simple, but not simplistic and it requires the self to master the knowledge of the Deen to appreciate the significance of correct intentions, lilLahi Ta'ala. Ummi's advice sticks in my head - "Di mana pun kita berada, jaga diri dan nama baik keluarga" (loosely translated - no matter where we are, preserve one's honour and family's reputation).
O Kiraman Katibin, I'm reminded of the supplication of Rabiatul Adawiyah - "O My Lord! I don't deserve Your blessings of Paradise. Yet, I don't have the strength to withstand Your torments of Hellfire. Thus, accept my repentance, and grant me Your forgiveness for my sins. For You are the Forgiver of great sins." Aamiin ya Rabb!
