..:: Apabila manusia diuji Allah ::..

Huhuhu .. jiwa kacau ...

Manusia sering mengeluh apabila diuji Allah dengan kesakitan, kegagalan, kekecewaan, kemiskinan dan kefaqiran. Tetapi manusia tidak pernah gelisah apabila diuji dengan kekayaan, kebahagiaan, kecukupan dalam kehidupan dan kemewahan. Itulah lumrah manusia………..anda, saya dan kita semua.

Tetapi berbahagialah manusia yang diuji dengan kesakitan, kegagalan, kekecewaan dan kemiskinan kerana sesungguhnya mereka di dalam golongan yang dikasihi oleh Allah. Sahabat-sahabat Rasulullah s.a.w suatu ketika menangis apabila mereka tidak diuji oleh Allah, kerana takut mereka telah hilang kasih sayang Allah. Tetapi kita hari ini di saat diuji........

Maka ketika hati kita tertanya-tanya “mengapakah Aku yang diuji?” maka ingatlah firman Allah:
"Apakah manusia itu mengira bahawa mereka dibiarkan saja mengatakan;
"Kami telah beriman," sedangkan mereka tidak diuji? Dan sesungguhnya
kami telah menguji org2 yg sebelum mereka, maka sesungguhnya Allah
mengetahui org2 yg benar dan sesungguhnya Dia mengetahui org2 yg dusta."
-Surah Al-Ankabut ayat 2-3

Tatkala diri berkata “Mengapakah aku tidak memperolehi apa yang aku citakan?” Allah berfirman:
"Boleh jadi kamu membenci sesuatu padahal ia amat baik bagimu, dan boleh jadi pula kamu menyukai sesuatu, padahal ia amat buruk bagimu, Allah mengetahui sedang kamu tidak mengetahui."
-Surah Al-Baqarah ayat 216

Lantaran disaat diri terasa lemah, nafsu telah mengalah, hidup terasa tidak bermakna lagi maka renungilah ayat Allah:
"Janganlah kamu bersikap lemah, dan janganlah pula kamu bersedih hati, padahal kamulah org2 yg paling tinggi darjatnya, jika kamu org2 yg beriman."
- Surah Al-Imran ayat 139

Ditika hati bermonolog “Bagaimanakah harus aku depani segala ini” maka Allah telah berfirman untuk mu:
"Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Bersabarlah kamu (menghadapi segala
kesukaran dalam mengerjakan perkara-perkara yang berkebajikan), dan
kuatkanlah kesabaran kamu lebih daripada kesabaran musuh, di medan
perjuangan), dan bersedialah (dengan kekuatan pertahanan di
daerah-daerah sempadan) serta bertaqwalah kamu kepada Allah supaya,
kamu berjaya (mencapai kemenangan)."
-Surah Al-Imran ayat 200

"Dan mintalah pertolongan (kepada Allah) dengan jalan sabar dan mengerjakan sembahyang; dan sesungguhnya sembahyang itu amatlah berat kecuali kepada orang-orang yang khusyuk"
-Surah Al-Baqarah ayat 45

Sementara dirimu tercari-cari dahan untuk bergantung, seseorang untuk memperolehi kekuatan, Allah telah sedia ada bersamamu .....:
"Cukuplah Allah bagiku, tidak ada Tuhan selain drNya. Hanya kepadaNya aku bertawakkal."
-Surah At-Taubah ayat 129

Dan apabila kau merasakan “AKU DAH TAK MAMPU BERTAHAN LAGI !!!!!”
Maka ingatlah firman Allah.........
"... ..dan jgnlah kamu berputus asa dari rahmat Allah. Sesungguhnya tiada berputus asa dari rahmat Allah melainkan kaum yang kafir."
-Surah Yusuf ayat 12

Sesungguhnya..............
" Allah telah membeli dari org2 mu'min, diri, harta mereka dengan memberikan syurga untuk mereka... ..
-Surah At-Taubah ayat 111

Dan akhir sekali ingatlah diriku, dirimu dan diri kita semua “ Allah tidak akan membebankan seseorang itu melainkan sesuai dengan kesanggupannya.”
-Surah Al-Baqarah ayat 286

“ Ya Allah..... jika ujian ini untuk menguji keimananku, berilah aku kekuatan, keimanan dan ketaqwaan. Jika ujian ini untuk kaffarah dosa-dosaku, berilah aku kesabaran dan keredhaan.”

. : 5 great tips to handle stress : .

Asking Uncle Google about 'tips on how to handle stress problem' . I want to share it with whoever read this post . Hope you can get something useful from it specially to whom that have a problem right now :p

Stress has always been a part of our lives. In this hectic time, people lead an increasingly stressful life. Experts state that a little stress can be good; it keeps you sharp and ready to move forward, and is sometimes vital for achieving optimum performance. However, medical research has determined that prolonged stress is very bad for the body, and can block the body's natural ability to repair, regenerate and protect itself. Over 90% of disease is caused by stress. Stress is both a physical and psychological response. It can lead to chronic disease, obesity, insomnia, deteriorating relationships, depression, and more.

Stress is such a powerful and harmful force that it is vital that you learn effective stress management techniques to live a successful, happy, and healthy life. We must remember that we will always come across inevitable factors that cause pressure and anxiety on us. What we do not know is that it is not really the problems that are difficult to deal with, but our attitude towards them. So basically, the cause of stress is your attitude toward these things. What, then, is an effective way to deal with stressors?

Below are 5 great tips to handle stress.

1. Identify what makes you stressful and uneasy. Making a list of your stressful experiences is useful. Immediately deal with the issues that you can change, for instance waking up earlier for work in the morning, not leaving things till the last minute, and delegating tasks in case you are taking responsibility for everything. Forget about the issues that you cannot influence like being stuck in a traffic jam or not getting into the elevator because there is no room for you.

2. Calm down. A few minutes break would do you good. Wash your face, breath slowly and deeply, and notice if there is tension in any part of your body and release it. You can also listen to relaxing music, or call a friend. Releasing your inner feelings to a friend is healthy option.

3. It will pass and it will be over before you know it. Remind yourself that the stressful event will end sooner or later can make you see the positive sides of things. At the same time, calm down your emotions and think of what is the best thing to do rather than take your energy away from what needs to be done.

4. Know yourself. Ask yourself: What triggers your anxiety? If for example it is your job, then maybe it’s time for you to reconsider whether it would be best to find a less stressful job. You can also make your job more tolerable by allowing yourself to get that needed vacation or leave.

5. Learn to use your relaxation response. Just as we all have within us the stress response, we also have an opposite response, which is the relaxation response. A person should elicit that on a regular basis. The relaxation response involves two steps. Repetition, the repetition can be a word, a sound, an expression, or a repetitive movement. The second step is to ignore other thoughts that come to your mind while you're doing the repetition, and come back to the repetition. The technique should be used once or twice a day for about 15 minutes. Sit quietly and choose a suitable repetition, like a prayer, the sound Om, or the word love, or calm. Or you can do a repetitive exercise, for instance yoga, jogging, Reiki. Additional repetitive activities are knitting or handicraft. When you incorporate this into your everyday life, you become calmer and better able to handle the stressors. Practice makes perfect and the more you practice relax your mind, the easier it gets.

The true causes of stress are not the problems or negative experiences that you encounter in your life; but your attitude toward them. So, the trick is to change your attitude and to develop a relaxed state, because you cannot be stressed and relaxed at the same time. It is important to understand that what we focus on, we energize. The more you continue to think about the factors that cause your stress, the more energy you give it. So it is vital to let go and focus on relaxation instead. Consequently, you're less likely to be upset by a stressor, and thus less likely to have its harmful effect occur. Eventually, it is your choice. You could either continue to react in the same stressful way, or you could choose to improve your life by changing your attitude and becoming relaxed. There’s no other way around it.
