Aku demam.
Tadi petang satu gigi dicabut lagi, yang terakhir. Seksa yang amat, kesakitan mental itu lebih perit mengatasi sakit nyata yang dikaburkan ubat pelali. Pulang aku terus tidur, bangun dikejutkan Faeiz yang mahu hantarkan ikan-ikan di rumah Hafiz supaya dapat aku jagakan. Hujan lagi petang tadi. Mungkin kerana badan yang makin lemah, selesai solat Maghrib air mata mengalir. Aku baca Quran kecil pemberian ibu, Al-Lail aku alunkan berkali-kali. Surah ini indah sekali. Tafsir pemberian sahabat di Dublin itu juga membantu.
In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
By the Night as it conceals (the light)
By the Day as it appears in glory
By (the mystery of) the creation of male and female
Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse
So he who gives (in charity) and fears ((Allah))
And (in all sincerity) testifies to the best
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Bliss
But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self-sufficient
And gives the lie to the best
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Misery
Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit)
Verily We take upon Ourselves to guide
And verily unto Us (belong) the End and the Beginning
Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely
None shall reach it but those most unfortunate ones
Who give the lie to Truth and turn their backs
But those most devoted to Allah shall be removed far from it
Those who spend their wealth for increase in self-purification
And have in their minds no favour from anyone for which a reward is expected in return
But only the desire to seek for the Countenance of their Lord Most High
And soon will they attain (complete) satisfaction
I don't preach. I think it's one of the beautiful surah in the Quran, and I love the meaning hidden in it. Food for the soul (which I lack).
