Alhamdulillah, let’s pray to Allah SWT for giving us the bounty of Islam and Iman till this precious moment. May Allah forgive all our wrong deeds through this long journey and our life will be blessed by Him. Life is about making decision. We had been given the rational thinking to make the decision accordingly in the light of the Qur’an and The Sunnah.
Life as university student is most precious, memorable and sweet journey. In fact, spending around six years from the matriculation program till undergraduate level is really meaningful for me. Sincerely, becoming the family of Garden Knowledge and virtues’s is a great opportunity for me. I learned a lot throughout four years period of the studies. Now, there is one more month left ..to leave this my beloved university. Final examination is around the corner. Time is running so fast. I will graduating soon... insya Allah..=)
The journey does not end here. In fact, at the out side, there are many challenges that we will face. Do we really well prepared?. Basically, we live in the comfort zone in which routinely that we do every day ..attending the lecture, doing the assignment, examination, books, notes and many more. Sometimes, student did not know what happen out there. However, those who are grabbing all the opportunities will miss it so much. The quality of student is not merely measured by the how many they gain dean’s list in ever semester and the higher that they achieved in GCPA. But, the issue is that how they put the theory in to the practice.
Rasullulah SAW said: Knowledge is of two types, one that goes straight from the tongue into heart. This is beneficial and useful knowledge. The other stays upon the tongue and will testify against man in the Court of Allah.” (Narrated by Ad- Darimi)
Therefore, participating in society or club is important platform to enhance our potential and talent. Every body is born to be a leader. We are the vicegerent and the servant of Allah on this earth. In addition, knowledge and skills will develop the personality of the person. The natural talents and personal skill of each student are given ample opportunity to enhance and become useful to the community.Imam al Ghazali said thateducation must not only seek to fill the mind with knowledge, but must, at the same time, stimulate the child’s moral character and stimulate him to the properties of social life.
Nowadays, the number of students in the higher learning institution either in the public or private is increasing day by day. University did not play a role as factory of producing jobless citizen. But, a university is place that builds the civilization as well as producing the intellectual talent to contribute to the nation and religion. Thus, the process of islamization of knowledge plays a vital role in building a good muslim toward building the khaira’ ummah. Learning is life long process. The more we know the more we want to . It is just like drink water in the sea, the more you drinks the more you feel thirsty.
Education is obligation to all Muslim. Al Attas defined education as a process of instilling something into human beings. In this answer “a process of instilling” refers to the method and the system by which what is called “education” is gradually imparted; “something” refers to the content of what is instilled; “human beings refers to the recipient of both the process and the content. The main function of education in Islamic point of view is to educate the Muslim in the divine religion of Islam, develop them the spirit and ideals of this religion and prepare them for a missionary life in the services of Islam.
Indeed, let’s renew our intention in seeking knowledge is not mere to achieve the excellence of the CGPA in order to gain good job, good salary and good life in the future. Not for exam-orinted!But, it is all about to fulfill the obligation as the khalifah and servant of Allah SWT on this earth as well as to gain the Pleasure of Allah in the world and the life of hereafter. Remember, the society needs us afterward. Life after graduation from the university is a long journey regardless it is merely graduation in the worldly life. But the real graduation is when our “answer” will be judge by Allah in the Day of Judgment after we had gone through long the long period of ‘examination”. After it had been analyzed by Him, we will receive our “real scroll”. Is is we will go to the “right” or “left” side?..Hopefully, our deeds will be blessed from Him. Be a good Muslim in giving our contribute for the betterment of ummah.
“The life of the individual depends on the relationship of the body and the soul. The life of the nation depends on the preservation of its traditions and culture. Individual dies if the life flow ceases and nation dies of the ideal of life is ignored"- Dr.Iqbal…
