Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh fellow readers.
So, thank you for your outstanding patient in waiting for my new post. My study in Miri still proceeds as it's planned, Alhamdulillah. My journey right now doesn't seem anything peculiar. Through hanging out with my friends for a few days, I have encountered many different phenomenon on human's nature. Right now, I'm just going in specifically in emotional response towards unfavourable matters- wrath. Wrath's existence is very subjective. One can never predict that he was actually being driven by anger in daily interaction with or without others. As a human beings, I am also borned with emotions and I am, too, borned with wrath.
Our Prophet, Muhammad S.A.W. once spoken; A strong Muslim is the one that is able to withstand anger at its first burst. Which means, no matter how heavy the loads that one can carry, no matter how much moneypouch one can carry, but still, one cannot be named STRONG unless he managed to substain his anger in any kind of situation.
Anger is a very subjective matter to be discussed of. Different people requires different things to be angry. Some maybe upset because his soulmate or bestfriend ditched her. Some maybe upset because his tea taste salty. But, the real question is; How did we manage our angst? I would like to share my story with you as the faithful readers of my blog. I have a friend in the same university as I am. He even took the same course as I am. Then, he even played rugby as I am. He is very enthusiastic in rugby. He played like he's playing in a tournament. But, the fact that he's playing like he's playing in the tournament really pissed me off. Without mercy, he tried to thrash us, giving out all of his effort without holding off his strength. In my eyes, he was just trying to boast his skill. All praises to Allah for creating me layered with a thick layers of fat, I managed to withstand his attack. At first, my teammates and I tried to advise him, reminded him that brothers of faith don't hurt each other unless in a serious training or fight.Instead, he merely look at us and replied in a sinister tone; Only the weak spoke the word.
We were astonished. We tried our best to hold our wrath yet he called us weak. Yes. I admit. As God's creature, we were powerless without His Blessings. Yet, another God's creature sinisterly called us...weak? To avoid further fight, I turned silence. In the past, I would be literally scolded if I became outrageous. These experience really turned out to be handy in social interaction. Credits to my brothers of faith; Ahmad Saufy Ahmad Azman, Faheem Ahmad Waseem Ahmad, Nazrul Nizam Abd Halim, Muhammad Syafiq Hilmi, Amirul Asyraf Abd Halim and Mohd Asyraf Salehuddin. So we decided toisolate him, to allow him to think about his act for a while. But, he turned out to be worst. One day, he played basketball with the ladies and a few guys. He scolded a girl for not carry the ball towards the shooting basket. He scolded, swore and many other things that humiliated the girl. My face turned red, along with my friends. We scolded him back and ran a total isolation on him. We turned our back on him and walked away. He seemed distress, untill today. He seldom went out of his house. I had determined to never to be close to him unless he decided to change for good.
So, readers. I would like to ask. Is my actions right in the path of Islam? I need an answer to this question. I am a human and I fear Allah. I'm afraid my act will cause Allah to be angry with me. Na'uzubillah min Zalik. So that's it for now. Thank you for reading. Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
