Alhamdulillah syukur kehadrat Allah swt kerana dengan izin-Nya aku masih mampu dan berpeluang bernafas di bumi pinjaman-Nya ini.
I am currently sitting and facing my lappy in a small but perfect room with my sister Azimah. Perfect room? Yeah, this room equipped with a single bed with 1 pillow and blanket, locker, bathroom+toilet+utilities, balcony, fan, air-conditioning, mini freezer, internet access off course single sofa, long mirror, personal table with chair, and also mini coffee table.
The place where my sister stay for a month.. Sudah pasti saya juga tumpang sekaki di tempat ini.. :D
IIUM main building
So, im sure u can imagine how comfortable the room provided for my sister and the rest of the participants. Actually she have a short course of Islamic Da'wah for a month held in International Islamic University of Malaysia (IIUM), organized by Regional Islamic Da'wah Council of Southeast Asia and the Pacific or RISEAP. The 16 participants came from different country has been selected by the RISEAP. Only 5 candidates from Malaysia (2 Sabah + 2 Sarawak + 1 Pahang), and the rest are from Hongkong, Taiwan, Cambodia, Myanmar, and Sri Lanka.
At first, I was planning just to visit my sister since we cannot have chance to meet often. So i decided to stay here since last wednesday (yeah, all my classes was cancelled) till this sunday, In Shaa Allah. Look, my plan just to visit my sister ended up with an awkward feeling from inside of my heart. I just didn't know how can i explain or confront that feeling. Frankly, i am quite jealous with my sister for her to have this precious chance because they got so much benefits for themselves. Not to mention how friendly all the participants even they only can communicate in English. Some of them cannot speak in English properly, but that is not a big issue as long as the other can still understand what they are trying to deliver.
What am I trying to point out here is my sister is very lucky to be one of them. She made some new friends from different country, meet up here and gain knowledge about Islam together. The day i arrived here, i got chance to have a short conversation with the girls from Hongkong, Taiwan, Myanmar, and Cambodia. You know what? They're freaking friendly. I wish soon i will get the same chance as my sister.
