i'm frustrated

have you ever been so frustrated with somebody or something that you just feel like screaming or crying right there? i'm going through it now.
i'm helping a kid from my neighbouring block for her exams. she's taking PSLE next month and her mum asked me to help her revise. i'm not giving tuition at all. just helping as and when she needs help with her homework or revision. so i said ok, i can help only when i'm free. turned out she comes everyday till i'm neglecting my own work. i've got an assignment due on 8th October and i haven't even started on it yet.
so back to the kid. by coming everyday she's showing that she's serious about her studies. so i'm happy to help anybody who show's that they are eager to learn. it's a waste of time if you teach someone who's not willing to learn and only comes when they are forced to.
this kid hates science. i don't see why you can hate the subject. science is happening in our everyday life that you can't ignore it. the best you can do or show even if you don't like it is a slight interest of at least how something goes on. for her, everytime she brings her science books over, the way she's studying is making me want to tie her to the back of the chair to make her sit up. then she'll start yawning and yawning till you just want to slap her to make her wake up. i almost snapped yesterday when she said she don't know what 'flooding' means. oh my god!!!
i have been trying my best to make the lesson interesting to her by giving demonstrations and explaining slowly as much as i can. i can say i'm doing not too bad considering i took my PSLE 15 years ago. but it seems like this kid has switched off herself to science. she likes maths. she has at least another 4 years of science to go. if she doesn't start showing interest she's not going to make it at all.
it's nisfu sya'ban tomorrow night. here's something you can do on the night. ladies, if you are in your 'red light' then you can just recite the do'a.


Untuk makluman semua.... Hari Nisfu Sya'aban akan tiba pada hari Rabu malam Khamis (sebaik saja masuk maghrib), 29 Sept 2004 = (selepas maghrib pada hari 15 Sya'aban 1424H). Oleh itu, marilah kita sama-sama mengambil saat keemasan ini untuk menutup catatan amal ibadah kita kpd Allah dengan baik dan sempurna dan seterusnya berazam untuk memperbaiki diri kita untuk catatan yang baru.

Hari nisfu sya'aban adalah hari dimana buku catatan amalan kita selama setahun diangkat ke langit dan diganti dengan buku catatan yang baru. Catatan pertama yang akan dicatatkan dibuku yang baru akan bermula sebaik sahaja masuk waktu maghrib, (15 Sya'aban bermula pada 14 hb Sya'aban sebaik sahaja masuk maghrib)
Berikut adalah antara amal ibadah di hari Nisfu Sya'aban :

1. Selepas solat maghrib (15 Sya'aban, Jumaat malam) Solat sunat nisfu sya'aban, 2 rakaat.
Rakaat 1 : baca Al-Fatihah & surah Al-Qadar 1x
Rakaat 2 : baca Al-Fatihah & surah Al-Ikhlas 3x
2. Membaca Yasin 3x selepas solat Maghribnya (15 Sya'aban, Jumaat malam)
i) Selepas Yasin pertama : mohon dipanjangkan umur untuk beribadat kepada Allah.
ii) Selepas Yasin kedua : mohon rezeki yang halal untuk beribadat kepada Allah.
iii) Selepas Yasin ketiga : mohon ditetapkan iman dan Islam & mati di dalam iman & pohonlah segala yang baik. Kemudian baca Istighfar 11x & selawat 11x Baca doa nisfu Sya'aban (ada didalam Yasin Majmuk).
3. Baca surah ikhlas 1000x
4. Berpuasa pada siangnya (Khamis) Abul Khair Al Talaqaani r.a. mengira nama2 malam Nisfu Syaaban sebanyak 22

Antaranya yg termasyhur adalah:
1. Malam Dimustajabkan Doa
2. Malam Pembahagian Takdir
3. Malam Rahmat
4. Malam Berkat
5. Malam Pengampunan (Taubat)
6. Malam Penebusan
7. Malam Syafaat
8. Malam Penulisan
9. Malam Keagungan dan Kemuliaan
10. Malam Rezeki
11. Malam Hari Raya Para Malaikat
12. Malam Penghidupan

Antara kelebihan bulan Sya'aban:
1. Sesiapa berpuasa sehari dalam bulan Sya'aban maka Allah haramkan tubuhnya dari api neraka dan dia akan menjadi teman kpd nabi Allah Yusof di dalam syurga.
2. Riwayat dari Osman Bin Abi Al-As, Sabda Nabi Muhammad (saw): pada malam nisfu sya'aban setelah berlalu 1/3 malamnya, Allah turun ke langit dunia lalu berfirman: adakah orang-orang yang meminta maka Aku perkenankan permintannya, adakah orang yang meminta ampun maka aku ampunkannya, adakah orang yang bertaubat maka aku terima taubatnya dan diampunkan semua orang mukmin lelaki & perempua! n, melainkan orang yang berzina atau orang yang berdendam marah hatinya kepada saudaranya. Sebaik-baiknya minta ampun
dengan ibubapa sebelum hari nisfu sya'aban kerana amalan kita akan terhalang dari diangkat ke langit sekiranya kita derhaka/berdosa dengan ibubapa kita.

Wallahua'alam
