Alhamdulillah.. - MOHD HANAFEE's FotoPage

Alhamdulillah, I finished my Modern Control Theory exam at 4 sharp. The last ever exam as an undergrad here at University of Canterbury, New Zealand. It was a long journey back then when I first touched NZ ground on the 15th of July 2005. All praise is due to Allah for helping me to get through the trials and challenges and in the same time indicating a good ending of my study here.

I've learned lots of things that changed my paradigm as a Muslim here in this foreign land. Despite variety, try to look at the point of unity. Behind the hard work, lies significant countless rewards. As Allah said, after one hardship, come two rewards. I really felt how tiny I am in front of Him, that He is the Almighty, nothing is impossible to Him and He is the Most Merciful to His servants. I truly felt His Greatness. Can't be accurately described by words. Subhanallah. All praise is eternally due to Allah.

Sometimes I see Islamic principals being practiced by non-muslims, vice versa. I come to think, if they are actually Muslims, how good things will be. I traveled here and there to learn about people that eventually made me realized that I am a person with heaps of weakness need to be improved.

Of course along the road, there were tolls and challenges that makes you feel like you are not able to move on. But then, with faith in heart, Allah showed you His mercy, guided you to the right way and made everything easy for you. You can't calculate your destiny, albeit you have master or PHD. Its just the faith that makes you strong, drive your will until you achieved your dream.

Open up your mind and reach out to learn more about life. There are lots and lots of lessons out there to be learned. Knowledge is like a missing treasure for Muslims; wherever you find it, grab it. But knowledge itself is not good enough, unless you convey it to others. That means, you like for others what you like for yourself. You don't have to be a scholar, it's the sense in your heart that makes you want to share good things with others.

OK, enough say. I still haven't finish packing. My flight is on the 3rd of July, 10.25 pm to Auckland. Then 3.30 am 4th of July to Brunei and 11.40 am from Brunei to KL. It's less than a week left. Hopefully I can maximize the time remained. Meanwhile, I like to share some photos from my trip to Melbourne last April. I think I should start postcard business when I'm back in Malaysia soon
