Understanding the messages

Have been trying to find means to understand the Quran. Sedih bila mendengar tapi tak mampu menikmati keindahan kata-kata Tuhan.
My experience during the last umrah in Ramadhan seolah mendesak the pencarian. Bacaan surah and doa dalam terawikh made many cry - surah dihayati and doa diaminkan dengan penuh pengharapan. Except for the Fatihah, I don't understand any the ayat from the surah nor the doa, but its simply beyond words to describe the feeling to being there with millions of other muslimin mengaminkan doa pada Yang Satu. Terasa shahdu, terasa dikasihi. At the same time terasa ruginya tak memahami...

Back in M'sia, met Kak Ani who is a committee member of the masjid at one of the terawikh in Al-Falah. Our conversation brought me to mention about my interest in arabic class should there be one. Then semangat masih terbakar... Yup - those days when tahap iman terasa terbelai.

It's been almost 4 months. Many things happened within the period. Dalam kemelut keresahan - mixture of loneliness and kejauhan penurunan level of iman, hilang tak keruan how to be back on track, I received a call from Kak Ani. Was in KSB when she called about the arabic class she found.

Tonite i attended my first class on memahami bahasa al-quran. The class is packed with messages and peringatan. Susah nak digambarkan - but terasa disayangi...

Allaahumma inni as aluka salaamatan fiddeen...

Alhamdulillah. Do not bow down to wimps of the evil powers of the earth. InsyAllah, you will be guide by His lights and righteous path.

Ameen.
