MyEXPI: Ilgaz Mountain Kastamonu Turkey

“Bila kita bersyukur dan bersabar dengan setiap kekurangan kita, Allah gantikan kekurangan yang kita ada dengan kelebihan yang orang lain tiada malah diganti dengan nikmat dan rezeki yang tidak pernah diduga😍.” #HNquotez #renunganbersama


[Cerita tentang 'trip'] Izzati dan kawan-kawan Mevlana 'join' satu 'trip' ke Gunung Ilgaz, Kastamonu yang dianjurkan oleh kelab Pelajar Pertukaran Global Universiti Karabuk. 'Trip' percuma termasuk sarapan pagi versi Turki dan tambang perjalanan pergi balik (jarak lebih kurang 2 marhalah). Alhamdulillah! 

Perasaan masa mula pergi adalah biasa sahaja sebab Izzati risau dan takut terelerji semasa di Gunung Ilgaz nanti (I ada elerji terhadap cuaca sejuk melampau).


[#HNsharestips untuk orang yang tak tahan sejuk yang melampau]
Jadi, sebagai langkah persiapan, Izzati pakai empat lapis baju ('thermal inner', baju, 'sweater', 'winter coat') dan dua lapis seluar ('inner' dan seluar 'slack'), bawa mafla (untuk tutup separuh muka takut semput bernafas dalam cuaca sejuk), ‘glove’ kalis air (untuk pegang salji), stokin termal (‘in case’ kaki tak tahan sejuk).

Pengalaman sebagai 'foreigner' : bila musim sejuk, orang takpakai palazzo. Kalau pakai, sepanjang keluar orang akan renung palazzo kita haha! Lagipun, mereka biasa pakai baju labuh sampai bawah lutut dan seluar jean 'slim fit'. Jadi, memang Nampak pelik lah kan pakai palazzo; "Eee budak ni tak sejuk ke?" Hahah.


Haa, siapa yang nak tengok suasana salji tu macam mana..nanti Izzati share link video untuk awak okay? Inshaa Allah! 'Wordless to describe the feeling is' sebab memang seronok sangat (senyum taklepas dari awal sampai balik).

Ada beberapa sahabat tersayang Izzati yang 'jealous' bila tengok 'best'nya Izzati dapat main salji. Tapi, percayalah. Izzati pun tak rancang atau ada niat nak pergi sangat pun. Sebelum pergi Gunung Ilgaz ni, memang ada rasa risau tapi cuba tawakkal. 

[Cerita masalah elerji sejuk Izzati]
Dulu, pernah semput sampai sesak nafas sebab duduk dalam bilik bersuhu 17 darjah selsius. Alhamdulillah dulu masa ter'elerji' ada ibu yang tolong bacakan al Fatihah sebagai penawar segera sebab takbawa ubat. Alhamdulillah, masa pergi tu Allah bantu sistem peredaran darah Izzati dan kawal untuk tidak elerji. Cuma bahagian kaki lah elerji sikit (bintik merah, ungu dan rasa miang sangat). 


[Sambung cerita di Gunung Ilgaz]
Dan, hasilnya berjayalah rasa pengalaman baling salji dan buat mini olaf. Itu pun sebab ada 'glove'. Kalauu tak, memang takpegang la salji, elerji sejuk kan... 

[Hadiah sempena 'trip']
Jadi, Izzati ada hadiah untuk awak yang sedang membaca agar Allah rezekikan awak realitii untuk setiap impian hidup awak dunia akhirat:

1. Sedekah; beri walaupun merasa diri sendiri tidak cukup atau perlu (bonus kalau kita bagi masa kita sendiri takmampu memberi; memang Allah ganti)
2. Kongsi rezeki kita dengan orang lain terutama dengan ibu ayah dan orang terdekat kita walaupun kita belum kaya
3. Istiqamah solat dhuha (walaupun di hujung waktu)
4. Istighfar dan selawat sebanyak mungkin dalam hati (makin rahsia daripada pengetahuan manusia lain, lagi berkesan)
5. Istiqamah baca surah al Waqiah (cuba paksa juga walaupun beratnya rasa haha)
6. Senangkan urusan orang lain (tumpangkan orang naik kenderaan dll)
7. Melabur dengan meletakkan duit yang kita ada di mana-mana tabung masjid (makin ikhlas dan yakin, makin dapat pulangan yang berganda)
['Last but not least']
Pilihlah mana-mana tips yang kita mampu buat. Hidup ini pilihan; dan awak dah pilih untuk dapatkan “bestnya” hidup orang lain... boleh inshaa Allah. Tapi, tugas kita adalah usaha😆 mana boleh percuma je dapat keseronokan tanpa penderitaan🙊 heheh😇

Rahsia untuk lebih berkesan: Ikhlaskan hati dan yakin Allah akan beri😇 

Semoga berjaya semua! Ingat, lain orang... lain kejutan hehe! Minta tolong doakan yang terbaik untuk Izzati, semua ahli keluarga, rakan-rakan, dan para guru Izzati. Terima kasih kerana sudi membaca. Assalamualaikum wbt!

MyEXPI: Nadia is wanderluster?

Assalamualaikum wbt, go out from your places for not only get a nice original photo for your Instagram (or other social media) but let us together set an useful and beneficial intention to observe how Mercy Allah creates the world with His Super Power until we realize that He is the only One who able to create the wonderful world, Maasya Allah!

[Intro] I like travel but I don't care where ever it is! Meaning as long as I can observe and watch my aesthetic things (sky, beautiful view of Allah's creation, cats, kids, sunset, sunrise etc) it's alhamdulillah; okay for me <3

So, from my childhood, I didnt dream to go travelling or studying to/in abroad other than my beloved county; Malaysia (maybe because of my allergy to extreme low temperature). But! wait hehe actually from the bottom of my heart, I wish to go to Kaabah, Mecca (at least as first abroad country that I reach).

[Let me continue sharing my travel experience] The story begins when my beloved close and soft-hearted friend, Damia expressed her willing to go to Turkey as exchange student in September 2018.

[My expression] I denied and didn't support her dream to study abroad because of my stand at first. Astaghfirullah my bad at that particular time.

P/s: Please help me to pray for my life next goal to be a supportive person for everyone in future inshaa Allah. Thank you in advance, may Allah rewards you!

[Turning point of my stand]  Suddenly, with the Wills of Allah, He arranged His plan special for me.

What is it? Haaa, during my second year first semester of my bachelor studies, Allah gave an opportunity for me to change mind about Damia's idea (being an exchange student in Turkey).

How could it be?

[Let us see the beautifulness of His planning] One day, in the class of Quranic and Prophetic text...our lecturer asked one of the international classmates. She's participating exchange program from Marmara University(Turkey) to our university; IIUM (Malaysia). Simply saying, at the moment, Allah turned my heart. Suddenly, I set an intention to join the program (even I’d think its impossible for me).

[Sedikit luahan hati terbuka] Maaf, nak tulis Melayu hahah! Akhirnya, termusafirlah Izzati Nadia ke Turki. Walaupun Nampak macam negara lain pertama yang Izzati jejak selain Malaysia, tapi sebenarnya Allah beri rezeki Izzati untuk jejak Jeddah (King Abdulaziz International Airport, Madina Road) yang mana terletak hanya lebih kurang 1 marhalah untuk ke Mekah. Alhamdulillah! walaupun belum ada rezeki untuk ke depan Kaabah lagi (macam kalian yang pernah pergi, yaa saya belum lagi, pity Nadia~), tapi yang tersirat...Allah rezekikan juga Izzati untuk tiba di negara Saudi Arabia yang Izzati pernah niat dulu dalam hati (walaupun belum lagi depan Kaabah).

[The mainpoint is] Then, I build my next and new dream to visit the world that Allah created; maybe all around the world especially the places that can change me to be a person with good understanding of Islam and can make me a better slaver of Allah, inshaaAllah! P/s: The dream starts since October 2018M (pity myself late dreaming).
