kalau saya…
tiap2 hari we reflect upon things that kdg2 kt menyesal kt buat…or kdg2 kt ditimpa satu mende yg xbes, kt selalu cuba cari mane silapnye….n bile kt ponder upon these things, we often xblh elak from using the word ‘kalau’ kan? cth2nya ni:
kalau dulu saya xkawan dengan dorg ni mesti skrg saya xmcm ni….
kalau saya xpergi belajar jauh2 mcm skrg mesti sempat jumpa nenek sebelum die meninggal..
kalau saya xmain2 n belajar betul2 dulu mesti sekarang saya dh dapat pegi luar negara…
kalau saya dapat la scholarship yg awk dpt tu, mesti saya guna utk tlg family saya…n belajar btol2…xdela nk seronok je mcm awk
kalau saya ni…..
kalau saya tu…..
n the list goes on…..
so, elok ke sbnrnye kt fikir cmni? kalau ni kalau tu….
lets first see the positive side of thinking in such a way:
- its good that we do reflect upon our mistakes…Islam pon ajar kt buat muhasabah everyday kan? so that hopefully we dont make the same mistakes….n become a better person insyaAllah in the future…
- n so some will agree
now ape pulak the negative side of thinking in such a way?
- if we say…kalau lah dulu saya…..the word ‘kalau’ tu dah tunjukkan that mende tu dah non reversible…the fact is, it already happened, and there’s nothing anyone can do to turn back time and change the fact that dah jadi dah pn….since we now live in the present, might as well try our best to fix things yg boleh so that kt xmenyesal nnt..=)
- pastu, penggunaan ‘kalau’ tu as if kt salahkan takdir that things are the way they are because of what happened in the past…whereas, semua yg brlaku kpd kt ni adalah qada’ dan qadar Allah swt….kt pasti ke ‘kalau’ dulu2 kt blaja betul2 kt dpt pegi overseas? kt pasti ke ‘kalau’ dulu2 kt baik kt xjadi mcm ni skrg? truth is: kt xtau~~~~…and all we can do is BERSANGKA BAIK dengan Allah…because die dah susun hidup kt the way it is….it is mentioned in the Quran (Albaqarah:216) ;
“It may happen that you dislike a thing which is good for you, and it may happen that you love a thing which is bad for you. Allah knows, you know not.”
“Boleh jadi kamu membenci sesuatu padahal ia amat baik bagimu, dan boleh jadi pula kamu menyukai sesuatu padahal ia amat buruk bagimu..Allah mengetahui sedang kamu tdk mengetahui.”
So kawan2, its up to you nk tgk mcm mane….nk gune bnyk2 ‘kalau’ hari2 pun boleh…xnak pon boleh…pastu, since we live in the present so kt cuba utk baiki ape yg buleh…so that kt xmenyesal later and xperlu la gune perkataan ‘kalau’ tu lagi…heee~ i think pointnye kat cni, its good that we reflect upon our weaknesses and dosa etc but jgn sampai kt mempersoalkan takdir Allah yg sbnrnye TERBAIK utk kt…
Allah knows that which we do not
