Dec 2012, I sat for my last paper in Diploma in Usuluddin which I pursued since
2010, filling me with mixed emotions. In those 3 years I love being able to
increase my knowledge in Islamic studies, whilst at the same time I can’t help
but feeling sad as I do not know on how best to utilize that knowledge.

Juster once quoted "You can swim all day in the Sea of Knowledge and still
come out completely dry. Most people do."
I
have yet to decide on what to do next…should I continue with PhD that was
put-off since 2008, or should I continue with a Bachelor in Usuluddin. Some friends are keen to continue in the
field of Syariah, some are interested in pursuing a certificate in Arabic
language, some wanted to master the reciting of the Quran, some who wanted to
“top-up” their credit at Darul Hikmah, and there are also some who just wished
to “chill”.
For me, follow whatever field as long as it is beneficial and we sit in the council that speaks the name of Allah, إن شاء الله blessing and grace of God is always with us. Where we study and the area of specializations is not important. The most important is the prior knowledge of who we are and what we are after getting knowledge.

Wa'alaikumusalam Mazlin. Ya, lama kita tak bersua muka. Harap Mazlin & family sihat selalu.
ReplyDeleteTake time to reflect upon what really matters in your life. Discern the difference between what you want and what you need in your life. Choosing what you need is your ‘soul path’, although what we need may not necessarily be what we want.
