Assalamualaikum wbt,
Ni nak citer satu pertemuan menarik sy ngan sorang mamat Libya dlm bus a few weeks ago..
It happened by accident...i was on my way back to OT from North Manchester GH yg jauhhhh itu!!...He sat next to me (biasanya..i'll put my bag on that sit so that nobody will sit there!!) tp hari tu, bus penuh la pluk.....huhu
He was an old fellow by the way...taking phd in QA. Self-sponsored thus he had to work whenever he had no class (unlike me)....
Basically, the subject of our conversation was more about Islam and Libya..He was so happy to tell me about them...and I was more that pleased to listen...hehe
Libya is a country which 98% of the ppl are muslim and all of them practise Islam the way it should be (sunni @ sunnah wal-jamaah).... He said "in Libya, the wages are low, since everything is subsidized by the goverment...10 kilo of flour is as cheap as 10 pence (lebih kurang tu ahh= lupa dah exact value dier)"....he added. "I miss it during Ramadhan...in Libya, all of the restorant and shop will be closed during the day!!"...(fuh, leh practise kat msia nih!!....)
"in Libya, children as young as 6 are already able to memorize Quran or atleast a few surah."
"in the mosque, every night after maghrib, there'll be students, doctors, engineers, and many more ppl, reading quran as to memorize them..."....SubhanaAllah!!!! (Mantap betul Libya, able to produce 'hafiz' professionals......
THIS IS MAGNIFICIENT!!..one country that i never cared to know before, is one country that should be proud of!!!... (need to investigate a lot more about LIBYA...heheh)...........
He told me many other interesting values of Libya which has made me wanting to go there oneday, InshaAllah................
one unforgetable event during the 20 minutes conversation. i mentioned the prophet's name....but, seemed not to say SallaLlahu Alaihi Wassalam...(i was going to say it, only, later than him)..but He replied...'whenever we mentioned Prophet's name S.A.W, we praised him to get the 'syafaat'. Do u know 'syafaat'?..'..................(merah muka tang tu..huhu)
Basically, he opened my eyes..not to take things lightly......be firm with our belief thus firm in our action as well.
Anyway...that was an interesting discovery for me....hehehe (take sure org lain leh rasa yg sama ker tak....)
LIBYA...LIBYA...LIBYA....
wallahuAllam
By accident..!
