I Feel Like A World Citizen

Hahahaha, of course I'm a world citizen.

I wasn't born and bred in Mars.

But all the time, it never hit me that I'm a world citizen.

I always consider myself Malaysian, no more or less.

But the email that I've just received a few moments ago

Well, how to put it in words?

Ok, let me tell you

The title is

[CzeMSA] AMARAN KERAJAAN CZECH: Bahaya debu gunung berapi

It sent me blank for a while

I was like, huh?

And then I give a nervous laugh

You see, I've been living a great amount of my life in Penang

I was on the island when the unexpected tsunami striked

That's the first and last so called disaster from lingkaran api pasifik that we got

Alhamdulillah, Malaysia is spared from volcanoes and earthquakes albeit our neighbours Indonesia and Phillipines sit rightly on the active earth crust

But then, the most we get from that is the tsunami and few tremors when the quakes hit Indonesia

There's no warnings whatsoever I've received

Hence my reaction when I received the email

Iceland is quite far from us, nevertheless the recent eruption from the susah-nak-eja volcano

really caught my attention and concern

If there's somemore eruption in summer, high fat chance air travelling will be affected again

And that means not going home

I think I overthink about this but then this country has closed its airspace due to the eruption

I tanak la be in Czech in summer and not going anywhere for the fear of the hazards the ashes may bring

Here's an excerpt from surah al-Dukhan

10. Then wait you for the Day when the sky will bring forth a visible smoke.

11. Covering the people, this is a painful torment.

12. (They will say): "Our Lord! Remove the torment from us, really we shall become believers!"

13. How can there be for them an admonition (at the time when the torment has reached them), when a Messenger explaining things clearly has already come to them.

14. Then they had turned away from him (Messenger Muhammad ) and said: "One (Muhammad ) taught (by a human being), a madman!"

15. Verily, We shall remove the torment for a while. Verily! You will revert.
