~WAYS TO DA'WAH USING SOCIAL MEDIA~

DA'WAH BY USING SOCIAL MEDIA

~Assalamualaikum,everyone~

The word “da‘wa” (Arabic دﻋﻮة) is basic to a study of Islam. The word commonly appears in the Quran, its commentaries, classical Muslim texts, and contemporary theological or ideological texts, written and spoken. Through mass media and other channels of communication, even non-academic non-Muslims are increasingly familiar with the term and its diverse connotations. In this new era of globalization, social media  is the best medium to spread the beauty of Islam to constitute the role of talk-based method as the main medium. There are many benefit and advantages of using it. For instance :

1. Youtube

Youtube is a site for video sharing. Communities can utilize the Youtube by uploading and downloading video for their purpose. The presence of Youtube enabled muslim communities to share videos among them. Muslim are able to download or upload videoa related to da’wah to be viewed across the globe. A lot of da’wah related videoa can be found about 1.7 milion videos related to da’wah in just less than one second. This shows that Youtube has become an interesting alternative instrument to deliver da’wah because it can be delivered in an audio visual format.

For instance, Ust Rosdi Blog is still available after his death. All his teaching can still be read by muslim communities around the world.

In conclusion, social media is the best ways for da’wah not only would increase muslim audience but also could potentially attract other non-muslim communities to understand Islam properly. Therefore, da’ie should transform da’wah strategy in the future. 

~MY IDOL~

MY MOTHER IS MY IDOL

~Assalamualaikum~

Everyone must have a source of inspiration and encouragement in their lives. As for me, my source of inspiration is my mother. Although many people have role models and idolize those that are famous but not me. The greatest sacrifice of the world will ever know is that of a mother. It is one that is accompanied with a lot of pain for gain, tears for laughter, frown for smile, struggle for success, and hurt for relief. You are asking, for whom? Who else? You and I – the children. I’m guessing you already know about the pains during child birth, and I am pretty sure you are aware of that heavy nine month journey. Who says a mother shouldn’t be worshipped? A machine the creator used to fashion out you and I, or what do you think the womb stands for? “Orisha bi iya osi – there is no idol like a mother.” For me, my mother is truly a “SUPER WOMAN” because she has made me into who I am today. Without my mom I would not have had any of the values that she has instilled in me over the years. I would not know the virtues of good will and family. I will never be able to repay my mother for the things that she has given to me and the things that she has done for me.

As for me, my source of inspiration or idol is none than my beloved mother, Aishah Md Daham. I called my mother “MAMA”. Now my mother is 60 years old but her look belies her age as many people are fooled thinking the she is 20 years younger than her truth age. My mother always be by my side during the good times. She takes good care of me since i was in her womb. She nurses me when i am sick and has brought me up to be well-mannered and well-educated person. My mother is one of important assets in my life as she always encourages me to study hard and make sure i have a good education so that i can succeed in life. She has been very patient with me and support me in everything i do. she has done a lot to boost my self-confidence and self- esteem. In 2012, my beloved father passed away. We were so sad. Actually, I’m the one who close to my beloved father so it really make my life a bit miserable. After, my father dead, my mother is not only a mom but also a dad. That why I called my mother “SUPER WOMEN”.  She is the woman whom I admire most and this is a person has been affecting me a lots. She has taught me neither knowledge nor the way to become a good person. She becomes a single parent now. My mother earns money to survive our life alone. She was just retire from her professional work as a lecturer. Luckly, my mother was one of best motivator for  whom who want to make haj with ‘Tabung Haji’. She does for a part time just to make sure  her children get what ever we need. My mother truly is my motivaton and she helps me live through all my struggle. Additional, she is the most positive and most important influence in my life.

My beloved mother 

My mother will always be my idol forever. She is the best and the greatest mother in the world. She always understand her children well and always gives her best for me. I really love my mother. I love you mother. I have a big question in my mind, “What can I do to pay back my mom’s love since I was born? What have I done?”. I only can study hard in the college and be a good girl. I will do my best to her because she is my everything, so I will do everything for her. I would like to thank God for creating such a wonderful and loving person for all the kids in the world wide world called 'Mum'. I know I shall feel like someone has cut off my right arm if anyone should take her away from me. No amount of money could repay all her kindness and loves towards me. I shall always cherish the sweet memories of my mother for as long as i live.

~MY AMBITION~

MY AMBITION

~Assalamualaikum everyone~

Ambition is something that you want to do or achieve very much. It can't be said that everyone necessarily has a plan of life to pursue. But most of people have some idea of career. It is advisable that we should devise a plan of life. There must be some aims to achieve. By this way, we can lead a purposeful and healthy life.

Personally, this is a simple question but with a hard answer. Like seriously, have you thought about it? I mean yes, we might answer it for a lot of time. Probaby since kindergarden. During primary school I always thought how good if I can be a doctor or lecturer and same goes to after I finished my high school. But, after I finished my diploma. I realized that there is a gap between rich and poor. And I want to get on the rich side. I got inspired by Robert T. Kiyosaki the book entitle “Rich dad poor dad” and I’ve attend Dr.Azizan talk how to became a businesswoman. And eventually telling me that being employer is better than be employee. Even though, I also have a working experience and I know how suffer to find a money in the present age. That  why I didn’t choose to work because I also have seen my parent struggle working to support us.

                     

Deep inside, my ambition is to become a millionaire by the time I’m 32 years old. That gives me about 7 more years to accomplish that goal. For me, the reason why I want to be rich is to have financial freedom and retire young. Thus, business is also sunnah of the Prophet. I realized that business we can also add value to others. Furthermore, I’ve more quality time for religion, family and community. To become a millionaire is not something impossible in the field of business that I am involved. It’s a industrial revolution in Affiliate Marketing business because this business involves the expenditure of Malaysian by just using Mykad. Realistically, while becoming a millionaire is achievable, it may be a lot harder than it seems to become one before the age of 32. When I achieve my goal, I wouldn't just use it all for personal reasons, I would for instance donate some to charities in need. However, it’s a big challenges for me. Pray for my success in AJ. I  believe what I do and I want to be a knowledgeable millionaire. =)

That's all from me..Thanks for reading..=)
