Salam.

I am given an opportunity to give out tazkirah for myself and my friends in FTMM. The title of the talk is “DOA - what, where, why, how and when doa ?'

2. Sounds simple. But the gist of the talk is - we have to create extra effort to make doa. Why did I say so? Becuase we are asking something from the CREATOR of all creations. Imagine we are asked to apply for a promotion say a post of a professor. Imagine how many pages .. w have to find evidence about our worth .. writing journuls, reports, books, grants, products etc etc ..proving the worthiness of our promotion. We create all the pages. We provide all the proofs. Similar is to Allah. We must create the time to make doa. Is 5 minutes doa enough ? Is 20 minutes doa good enough or should it be less than a minute? I remembered my late friend Prof Dr Abdul Ghani Kamaruddin (UM - Mechanical Eng. Department) ..he once suggested us .. if for dunia we are spending so much time asking so and so ..what more the time we must create ourselves seriiously in asking many favours from ALLAH Azawajalla.? Sometimes we ask from Allah but our mind is some where else. How unfortunate r we? Did we not realize Allah is in front of us?

3. What more with Allah. Are we not suppose to be more careful, tactful with our asking (doa) from Allah. Is our soul ready to ask so and so? Examples we want our children to be a good one but .. are we good to ourselves in the first place? We want good health .. but in the mea time we smoking again and again without end. So our asking ..must be parallel to our doing 24 hours of the day.

ok thats all my writing for today. Think about it my dear readers. May we get hidayah from HIM alone. Ameen.

wasallam.
