Besarnya pengorbanan seorang ibu

Seorang insan yg tidak akan terbalas segala jasa-jasanya walaupun harta dan nyawa dipertaruhkan. Insan yang sanggup berkorban apa sahaja demi anak-anak tercinta sehinggakan Allah meletakkan tarafnya sebegitu tinggi, iaitu selepas Allah Ta'ala dan Rasulullah. Sehinggakan syurga itu diletakkan di bawah telapak kakinya. Bukannya secara fizikal syurga itu letaknya dibawah telapak kakinya, ia hanyalah suatu simbolik sahaja. Dengan erti kata lain, untuk mencapai syurga Allah yang tidak tergambar dek imaginasi kita manusia biasa ini, ketaatan terhadap insan ini adalah kunci utamanya. Dialah insan yang teristimewa: IBU/MAK/MAMA/UMI.

Who should I give my love to?
My respect and my honour to?
Who should I pay good mind to
After Allah and Rasulullah?
Comes your mother
Who next? Your mother
Who next? Your mother
And then your father

Cause who used to hold you
And clean you and clothe you?
Who used to feed you
And always be with you?
When you were sick
Stay up all night
Holding you tight?
That right no other My mother

Who should I take good care of
Giving all my love?
Who should I think the most of
After Allah and Rasulullah?
Comes your mother
Who next? Your mother
Who next? Your mother
And then your father

Cause who used to hear you
Before you could talk?
Who used to hold you
Before you could walk?
And when you fell
Who'd pick you up?
Clear your cut?
No one but Your mother
My mother

Who should I stay right close to?
Listen most to?
Never say no to
After Allah and Rasulullah?
Comes your mother
Who next? Your mother
Who next? Your mother
And then your father
Cause who used to hug you
And buy you new clothes?
Comb your hair and blow your nose?
And when you cries who wiped your tears?
Knows your fears?
Who really cares?
My mother

Say Alhamdulillah
Thank you Allah
Thank you Allah
For my mother

Ina starts schooling

2/1/2008

Anak sulungku dah start sekolah. Pejam celik-pejam celik dah 7 tahun usia dia. Alhamdulillah, tak ada masalah besar sangat nak menguruskannya ke sekolah. Lagipun dia dah biasa ke taska dan menguruskan diri sendiri.
"Ibu, ina dah berapa tahun?"
"Ibu, bila ina nak sekolah kebangsaan?"
"Ibu, esok berapa hari bulan?"
Hai.. letih dan jenuh nak jawab soalan-soalan dia. Tiap-tiap hari asyik tanya soalan sama. Nak tak nak kena la jawab dengan penerangan yang panjang lebar.

"Hari ni ina dah sekolah kebangsaan. Dalam kelas jangan main- main ngan kawan, dengar cakap cikgu baru ina jadi pandai. Kalau ina pandai, nanti cikgu sayang kat ina, nanti dapat hadiah".

3/1/2008
Hari kedua sekolah
Balik aje dari sekolah, anakku melaporkan :
"Ibu, kat kelas ina kan, ada budak handsome. Termenung je ina tengok dia".
Gulp, anakku baru darjah 1 dah fikir pasal budak handsome. Mak aii... advance betul budak sekarang ni. Jangan tak concentrate masa belajar nanti sudah lah..
