Masya Allah, Alhamdulillah, Astaghfirullah

The garden of knowledge and virtue. Taman ilmu dan budi. Arent those beautiful phrases? These are the taglines (if I can call them that) for IIUM / UIA.


And the convo at the university today went on almost perfectly. The ceremony started on time in fact they were very punctual all the way; everybody queued nicely and everything went on very smoothly.

Uh, except (ha-ha of course I have something to comment on) that the mc went overboard with her pronunciation of the names like Zain which became Zayyn and Mohamed is stressed on the e and not Muhamad etc etc.


Nevertheless, the students nasyid was very, very good. Unfortunately they didnt perform during recess; which is a shame. The rector's speech was quite moving that left tears in the eyes. But I doubt the graduans were listening; they were making all sorts gestures at the camera.

I am happy, relieved that there is yet another milestone achieved.
Dan mengaminkan sepenuh hati doa yang dibacakan.


And yet at the same time cant help but wonder at the audacity of man (or should I translate that to me?);
walau sebanyak mana jua pun rahmat diberi Allah namun masih lagi lupa dan alpa dengan segala kurnia dari Nya.

Astaghfirullahul'adzim.
Astaghfirullahul'adzim. Astaghfirullahul'adzim.
