Assalamualaikum wr wb,
NICE STORY-WORTH READING
Since last night my young son has been unwell. When I got back from Work this evening I decided to take him to hospital despite my exhaustion.
There were many waiting; perhaps we will be delayed by more than an hour. I took my number and sat down in the waiting room. There were many faces, young and old, but all silent. Some brothers made use of the many booklets available in the waiting room. Some of those waiting had their eyes closed, while others were looking around. Most were bored. Once in a while the long silence was broken by a nurse calling out a number. Happiness appears on the one whose turn it is, and he gets up quickly; then silence returns.
A young man grabbed my attention. He was reading a pocket-sized Qur`an continuously; not raising his head even once. At first I did not think much about him. However, after one hour of waiting my casual glances turned into a deep reflection about his lifestyle and how he utilizes his time. One hour of life wasted! Instead of making benefit of that hour, it was just a boring wait. Then the call for prayer was made. We went to prayer in the hospital’s Masjid. I tried to pray close to the man who was reading the Qur’an earlier in the waiting room.
After the prayer I walked with him. I informed him of how impressed I was of him and how he tries to benefit from his time. He told me that most of our time is wasted without any benefit. These are days that go from our lives without being conscious of them or regretting their waste. He said that he started carrying the pocket-sized Qur`an around when a friend encouraged him to make full use of his time. He told me that in the time other people waste he gets to read much more of the Qur`an than he gets to read either at home or in the masjid. Moreover, besides the reward of reading the Qur`an, this habit saves him from boredom and stress.
He added that he has now been waiting for one and a half hours. Then he asked, when will you find one and a half hours to read the Qur`an? I reflected; How much time do we waste? How many moments of our lives pass by, and yet we do not account for how they passed by? Indeed, how many months pass by and we do not read the Qur`an? I came to respect my companion, and I discovered that I am to stand for account and that time is not in my hand; so what am I waiting for?
My thoughts were interrupted by the nurse calling out my number; I went to the doctor. But I want to achieve something now. After I left the hospital I quickly went to the bookshop and bought a pocket-sized Qur`an. I decided to be mindful of how I spend the time.

The Prophet (Sallallaahu ‘Alaihi Wasallam) also said “Pass on knowledge from me even if it is only one verse”

alhamdulillah, adik antara org terpilih Allah beri kesedaran.
syukur padaNya, akak pun mmg telah diberi kesedaran sebegitu, kat umah banyak al quran kecil, jk mata masih cerah leh akak hadiahkan quran sekecil 3″x4″,
tapi yg selalu akak gunakan adalah tafsir al quran kecil yg senang di bawa kemana jua, baca sambil mengamati maksudnya, selalu sebut kat diri sendiri..kenapa la tak dari dulu aku sedar betapa indah dan berharganya masa2 yg di peruntukan utk menghayati firman Allah ni.

i always carry with me al-quran kecil yg aruah bapa tinggalkn utk saya b4 aruah pergi buat selama2nya..
dulu.. pd satu tempoh masa dulu.. saya sgt tidak stabil.. time2 tak stabil tu tak menentu.. dan kerja saya mnyebabkn saya sentiasa bjauhan dgn hsbd n anak2 hingga ke luar negara..
bila alone in spite of org2 lain dikeliling.. saya mudah sedih n teringat kisah2 sedih saya.. al-quran itu la pengubat duka lara saya..

terimakasih.
selain daripada itu masa lapang boleh diisi dengan bertasbih bertahmid bertahlil.
setahu saya ada juga amalan-amalan zikir hati. mereka yang mempunyai amalan zikir hati dapat sentiasa berzikir tanpa mengira keadaan samada semasa mereka berdiri,duduk dan berbaring.
inilah orang-orang yang beroleh keuntungan diakhirat kerana banyak mengingati Allah semasa hidup diatas dunia.

puan sutera,
itu adalah tasbihnya nabi yunus semasa berada didalamnya perut ikan nun.
“Sesungguhnya tiada Tuhan (yang dapat menolong) melainkan Engkau (ya Allah)! Maha Suci Engkau (daripada melakukan aniaya, tolongkanlah daku)! Sesungguhnya aku adalah dari orang-orang yang menganiaya diri sendiri”.
zikir ini terakam dalam surah anbiya` ayat 87 puan.
