Kedua-dua lelaki itu mengaku jatuh kasih kepadanya tetapi Najiha rasakan dia hanyalah pesona bayangan Ellina. Justeru itu, dia memilih Redza yang buta sebagai pasangan hidup walaupun keputusannya amat mengecewakan Zarul yang menantinya sekian waktu.

Namun, selepas tahajud pertama, Redza menghembuskan nafasnya yang terakhir di pangkuannya. Najiha rebah lagi di kaki takdir. Dia pakai baju Redza, dia tidur beralas pelekat Redza. Air matanya tumpah tiada tersukat. Luluh seleruh hidupnya. Dia rasakan semua itu kerana dosa-dosanya yang lalu.

Jika Benar Cinta

-Alaf 21
-Jika Benar Cinta
-Lynn Dayana


DIA sukar menyatakan rasa cinta. Seolah-olah ucapan keramat itu bila diucapkan, bakal menjerut lehernya sendiri. Pengalaman lalu yang pahitnya masih lagi terasa juga menjadi punca mengapa dia tidak mahu berlindung di bawah payung hati lelaki. Teduhnya mungkin sementara saja. Kalau boleh dia mahu terus hidup sendiri.

Namun, sejak terpandang senyuman manis Airy, hatinya bermukim di laman rindu. Ada debar membara di dada. Dia sendiri tidak tahu kuasa mana yang sudah menyampuk dirinya. Siang terpandang-pandang dan malam terbayang. Asyik terkenang-kenang.

Gila. Memang benar, cinta boleh membuatkan manusia jadi gila. Jatuh cinta juga umpama jiwa yang dimahkotakan. Semuanya indah berlaka.

Tetapi... sanggupkah dia menjadikan kebahagiaan hatinya satu taruhan lagi? Dia sendiri tidak pasti. Mampukah dia bertahan sekali lagi jika hatinya dilukai? Dia tidak tahu. Menyemai kasih tanpa benih di ladang dan tidak bertanah umpama mencari air yang tidak bergaram di tengah lautan.

Bukan sesuatu yang mustahil, namun 'jika benar cinta' segalanya memerlukan pengorbanan.

Your Best Componian

Your best companion is a book
An activity that brings about joy is for you to read a book and develop your mind through the acquisition of knowledge.Al-Jaahiz, an Arab writer from centuries ago, advised one to repel anxiety through the reading of books:"The book is a companion that does not praise you and does not entice you to evil.It is a friend that does not bore you, and it is a neighbor that causes you no harm. It is an acquaintance that desires not to extract from you favors through flattery, and it does not deceive you with duplicity and lies. When you are poring through the pages of a book, your senses are stimulated and your intellect sharpens...

Through reading the biographies of others, you gain an appreciation of common people while learning the ways of kings. It can even be said that you sometimes learn from the pages of a book in a month, that which you do not learn from the tongues of men in a century. All this benefit, yet no loss in wealth and no need to stand at the door of the teacher who is waiting for his fees or to learn from someone who is lower than you in manners. The book obeys you by night as it does by day, both when you are traveling and when you are at home. A book is not impaired by sleep nor does it tire in the late hours of the night. It is the teacher who is there for you whenever you are in need of it, and it is the teacher who, if you refuse to give to it, does not refuse to give to you.

If you abandon it, it does not decrease in obedience. And when all turn against you, showing you enmity, it remains by your side. As long as you are remotely attached to a book, it suffices you from having to keep company with those that are idle. It prevents you from sitting on your doorstep and watching those who pass by. It saves you from mixing with those that are frivolous in their character, foul in their speech, and woeful in their ignorance. If the only benefit of a book was that it keeps you from foolish daydreaming and prevents you from frivolity, it would certainly be considered a true friend who has given you a great favor."


Sayings that deal with the virtues of books
Abu `Ubaydah said:
"Al-Muhallab gave his son the following advice: `O' son, do not linger in the marketplace unless you are visiting the maker of armor or the book vendor.'
Al-Hasan al-Lulu'ee said:
"Forty years have passed, and I have not dozed off in the day or in the night...except that a book was resting on my chest." Ibn al-Jahm said:
"If I feel drowsy when it is time to sleep - and wasteful is the sleep that exceeds one's needs - I take up a book from the books of wisdom and I find bliss in coming across a pearl (of wisdom).... I am more alert when I am happily engaged in reading and learning than I am when I hear the braying of the donkey or the shrill noise of something breaking."

He also said:
"If I find a book to be agreeable and enjoyable and if I deem it to be beneficial_ you will see me hour after hour checking how many pages are left, from fear of being close to the end. And if it is many volumes with a great number of pages, my life and my happiness are complete."

And the best, highest, and worthiest of books is:
[This is the] Book [the Qur'an] sent clown unto you [O' Muhammad], so let not your breast be narrow there from, that you warn thereby, and a reminder unto the believers. (Qur'an 7: 2)

The benefits of reading

1. Reading repels anxiety and grief.
2. While busy reading, one is prevented from delving into falsehood.
3. Habitual reading makes one too busy to keep company with the idle and the inactive.
4. By reading often, one develops eloquence and clarity in speech.
5. Reading helps to develop the mind and purify its thoughts.
6. Reading increases one in knowledge and improves both memory and understanding.
7. By reading, one benefits from the experiences of others: the wisdom of the wise and the understanding of scholars.
8. By reading often, one develops the ability to both acquire and process knowledge and to learn about the different fields of knowledge and their applications to life.
9. One's faith will increase when one reads beneficial books, especially books written by practicing Muslim writers. The book is the best giver of sermons and it has a forceful effect in guiding one towards goodness and away from evil.
10. Reading helps to relax one's mind from distraction and to save one's time from being wasted.
11. By reading often, one gain a mastery over many words and learns the different constructions of sentences; moreover, one improves his ability to grasp concepts and to understand what is written `between the lines.'

"Nourishment of the soul is in concepts and meanings, And not in food and drink.”

Through reading the biographies of others, you gain an appreciation of common people while learning the ways of kings. It can even be said that you sometimes learn from the pages of a book in a month, that which you do not learn from the tongues of men in a century. All this benefit, yet no loss in wealth and no need to stand at the door of the teacher who is waiting for his fees or to learn from someone who is lower than you in manners. The book obeys you by night as it does by day, both when you are traveling and when you are at home. A book is not impaired by sleep nor does it tire in the late hours of the night. It is the teacher who is there for you whenever you are in need of it, and it is the teacher who, if you refuse to give to it, does not refuse to give to you.
If you abandon it, it does not decrease in obedience. And when all turn against you, showing you enmity, it remains by your side. As long as you are remotely attached to a book, it suffices you from having to keep company with those that are idle. It prevents you from sitting on your doorstep and watching those who pass by. It saves you from mixing with those that are frivolous in their character, foul in their speech, and woeful in their ignorance. If the only benefit of a book was that it keeps you from foolish daydreaming and prevents you from frivolity, it would certainly be considered a true friend who has given you a great favor."

Sayings that deal with the virtues of booksAbu `Ubaydah said:"Al-Muhallab gave his son the following advice: `O' son, do not linger in the marketplace unless you are visiting the maker of armor or the book vendor.'Al-Hasan al-Lulu'ee said:"Forty years have passed, and I have not dozed off in the day or in the night...except that a book was resting on my chest."
