Summary
This Bayan Linnas encourages Muslims to reflect on the events of the previous year before setting new aspirations. When receiving blessings, a person must be grateful, and when tested with hardship, he should be patient. An aspiration is defined as a strong hope or desire. Ways to build one include deciding to raise the level one wishes to reach, building firm resolve, writing down one's dreams, and giving full commitment.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Justeru tatkala kita dikurniakan nikmat, maka wajib kita zahirkan kesyukuran kepada Tuhan. Sebaliknya jika diuji dengan sedikit musibah, maka hendaklah dia bersabar.
