My amazing students

BismillahirRahmanirRahim.

Salam alaik buat semua. Masa berlalu begitu pantas. Alhamdulillah sudah sebulan aku bertugas sebagai guru pada tahun ini. Hari-hari berlalu begitu sibuk. Awal tahun sahaja begitu banyak jawatan di sekolah yang kuterima. Dua jawatan besar kuterima sebagai guru Tingkatan dan guru Data (Unit Sistem Maklumat Murid) sudah bisa membuatkan jadual harianku begitu padat. Realiti tugasan guru kini bukan sekadar mengajar tapi terlibat dengan kerja-kerja teknikal yang menguji kekuatan fizikal. Melangkahkan kaki dengan taklifan sebagai guru adalah tugas penting buatku. Lillahi ta'ala. Honestly, I love teaching so much and the conclusion is I have to be proactive in handling teacher's chores.

Being so special as a teacher

This becoming Monday, my UPSI juniors will start their duty as practical teachers. Mabruk 'alaikum. Inilah masanya merasai dunia realiti di medan pendidikan. Bukan sekadar menyampaikan ilmu malah lebih lagi..meng'islah'kan ummah dengan nilai-nilai Islam. Hakikatnya melangkahnya kita ke sekolah bukan sekadar seorang guru sahaja malah tanggungjawab yang digalas jauh lebih besar iaitu sebagai Khalifah Allah. Therefore here are 3 main responsibility on being a Khalifah of Allah:

1. Make myself good

Quran : (Surah Al-Hijr:29)

Hadith: Actions are judged by motives (niyyat), so each manwill have what he intended (Sahih Bukhori & Muslim)

2. Help others to be good

Quran: (Surah Al-Imran:114)

Hadith: Religion is nasihah (Sahih Muslim)

3. Make the physical world clean & beautiful

Quran: (Surah al-Mulk: 15)

Hadith: The world is green and sweet, and Allah has made you gavernors (Khalifah) over it to see how you behave. (Sahih Muslim)

Realizing those responsibilities, really motivate me when I'm at school. Bila students buat hal dalam kelas (kelas bising, homework tak siap, masuk lambat dalam kelas) dan pada masa tu aku sedar yang diri ini adalah Khalifah Allah (I have to make others to be good) terus rasa marah tu 'vanish'. Alhamdulillah, aku memang tak pernah marah2 dan garang dalam kelas. A very cool teacher indeed (^^). InsyaAllah. To all teachers, do instil in yourselves that you're Khalifah of Allah that specially selected to fulfill the Khalifah responsibilities towards your students who are the upcoming generation to uphold the Deen, Islam!

Khalifah Method the best alternative in educating!

Alhamdulillah keterlibatan dengan Khalifah Institute banyak mengajar aku teknik mengajar berlandaskan Sunnah. Ya, Khalifah Method is actually theory in educating berdasarkan suunah Rasulullah. (Very nice to be learnt by every teachers)

Sewaktu praktikal awal 2009, aku diberi amanah mengajar kelas yang dikategorikan sebagai “kelas hujung” yang dikatakan nakal dan lemah kognitifnya, majoriti guru2 senior minta aku berperwatakan garang. Tapi bila aku minta nasihat Khalifah Trainer, Subhanallah, satu motivasi bermakna yang kuterima, katanya "Erase all the bad perceptions about the students. Believe that they are closer to fitrah, see potentials in themselves. Recite surah al-Kahfi verse 10 before you enter the class. Remember that you are not just a teacher, but you play your role as Khalifah of Allah”.

Suatu motivasi yang ku pegang sehingga kini.. dan Alhmdulillah, I did my best to my students during my practical.

My students and I: Ketika meraikan kejayaan mereka mendapat Anugerah Kokurikulum kerana menjadi wakil sekolah dalam Perlawanan Bola Sepak. I believe that they have lots of potential to be a good ummah. As a teacher, guide their potentials towards good path that make them closer to Allah. It is not an easy task but need patience, love and strength. May Allah bless them. I'm proud of your achievements.
