It's Mother's Day, What do you expect?

So this time, it's about mother's day, So Imma make a special post. like other people do(LOL)

Firstly before I proceed,

Some people said that celebrating Mother's Day is HARAM. Well, It's different from me.. And people said this every time people celebrate it

1: Everyday is Mother's day, why have specific day for it?
2: This is Bid'ah, DON'T CELEBRATE IT!
3: This is not from Islam, save your IMAN, DON'T CELEBRATE IT

Well, hear this.. I know someone might not like what ill be saying or saying I'm just being ignorant and ego n bla bla bla.... Let us be clear that for me, I don't THINK it's HARAM.

1: I look at this celebration is in fact, very Islamic. It's not that I am saying that this celebration is a religious festival, It's a day to show to give to express our love to our Mom, and we all know that ISLAM, the Prophet(P.b.u.h) told us to favor our mom. So MOTHER'S DAY is in fact, one of the ways we can do it

2: Bid'ah, YES I KNOW that this event was not celebrated during the time of prophet, SO DOES THE INDEPENDENCE DAY CELEBRATION! But is this why we can't do it? NO! there's a lot of thing's that we do that doesn't even exist during the time of Prophet(p.b.u.h) in fact FB and blog and twitter and so on.. IS THIS THING HARAM?

3: It's not from Islam, yeah everyone knows that, so does the INDEPENDENCE DAY, TEACHER'S DAY and WORLD CANCER DAY! All of them are not from ISLAM.. but we do it as a sign of respect and honor... don't be to narrow. ISLAM IS NOT A PRISON so dont make yourself prisoned by Islam.. its a religion of love and peace

Okay so now i will proceed(phew.. at last!)

I would like to praise Allah, for giving me my mum, well also for the other MOMS out there..

you really are the MOST AMAZING WOMAN in life! I would really hope someday, I will be able to repay all your deeds though ONLY ALLAH CAN DO SO.. And thus, the Aim of my life, is to please you, to make you happy, and to have a family, that loves you, and take care of you..

I know I have not be the best child.. but I'll try my best to do so, I know i have disappointed you so many times, whether I do it on purpose or not, still I HOPE YOU'LL forgive me.. The degree i will bring back home, is always your dream.. I remembered when I always asks money from you.. and you'll say "You can ask anything from me, but please do your study well, that will please me, and thats my only request" So UMMI, I hope to bring back not just 1 degree, but! I HOPE I CAN BRING YOU 2 Degrees after I graduate! Insya-Allah

I can say I am really close to you, everything I do, you are the one who I will think of and hoped that my stories can make you happy.. yea I know I talk too much sometimes, but telling you stories will make me happy and I hope you'll be happy to listen to it too( SOMETIMES I ADDED UP MY STORIES AND IT SOUND ABSURD! SORRY!) But this is the best I could do(given the situation that most of my talent goes to my mouth so... yea...)

SO UMMI(AND ALSO ALL THE UMMI'S OUT THERE)

I dedicate this song for you(IM NOT GOING TO SING) just the lyrics

The Perfect Fan lyrics
It takes a lot to know what is love
It's not the big things, but the little things
That can mean enough
A lot of prayers to get me through
And there is never a day that passes by
I don't think of you
You were always there for me
Pushing me and guiding me
Always to succeed

[Chorus:]
You showed me
When I was young just how to grow
You showed me
Everything that I should know
You showed me
Just how to walk without your hands
Cuz mom you always were
The perfect fan

God has been so good
Blessing me with a family
Who did all they could
(From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/backstreet-boys-lyrics/the-perfect-fan-lyrics.html)
And I've had many years of grace
And it flatters me when I see a smile on your face
I wanna thank you for what you've done
In hopes I can give back to you
And be the perfect son

[Chorus]

You showed me how to love
You showed me how to care
And you showed me that you would always be there
I wanna thank you for that time
And I'm proud to say you're mine

[Chorus]

Cuz mom you always were,
Mom you always were
Mom you always were,
You know you always were
Cuz mom you always were... the perfect fan

I love you Mom

Next, I would also share some hadith that is related to this post.. I know this hadith IS VERY POPULAR! but just as a reminder and the reason why we should really appreciate and do good to our mom :)

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: A person came to Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and asked, "Who among people is most deserving of my fine treatment?'' He (PBUH) said, "Your mother". He again asked, ``Who next?'' "Your mother", the Prophet (PBUH) replied again. He asked, "Who next?'' He (the Prophet (PBUH)) said again, "Your mother.'' He again asked, "Then who?'' Thereupon he (PBUH) said,'' Then your father.''

In another narration: "O Messenger of Allah! Who is most deserving of my fine treatment?'' He (PBUH) said, "Your mother, then your mother, then your mother, then your father, then your nearest, then nearest".
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

Commentary: This Hadith tells us that the rights of the mother are three times more important than that of the father for the reasons that:

1 She is weaker than the father.

2. The following three troubles are borne exclusively by the mother while the father does not share them with her:

a) She carries the baby in her womb for nine months,

b) The labor pain which she suffers.

c) Two years' period of suckling which disturbs her sleep at night and affects her health. She has also to be very cautious in her food for the welfare of the baby.

I wish I can do more than this... but yea.. I write this not direct from the heart.. so What came up during I type.. that is what im going to type..

Anways, I take this opportunity to request from the reader to pray for the 3 children who lost such a heroic mother, reading the story about those children, I cried, even life can be sacrificed for her love to her children, May Allah place you in heaven, you are an amazing mother, and for the children, I pray for the best in life and may you'll be placed together with you mom in Jannah, that's the best I can do..

So dear reader's, appreciate our mother, love them, please them..

and also for the reader who is already become a mother, this is a special day for you too :)

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
