Youth Peace Ambassador International Part I

Assalamualaikum, it has been a very long time since my last note. I've been very busy with all the things that i need to do. I really love travelling because when i travel more, i learn more about what is life and it make me feel closer to Allah. Last week i was chosen to represent uitm and Malaysia for 6th UNESCO Youth Peace Ambassador in Bangkok and Kaeng Krachan Thailand. It was a 10 days journey in which i feel so grateful and excited as it was my first time to Bangkok. One of my dream is i want to be a writer who wrote the stories based on her own experience and i want to make a story based on my journey to other places. it is kind of travelogue but i am not sure when will i get the chance to do all those things. 10 days in Bangkok really taught me lots of things especially about Islam. Being a muslim among many non-muslim's friend in a country which Islam is not the official religion is not very easy. Here i was able to practice what i was taught theoritically and it is not easy to put from theory to practice. Yeah it was not my first time going overseas but this 10 days experiences are very different and rare. I am agree that when u become an ambassador of your country you are also an ambassador of Islam. During my journeys i made friends from people all around the world. They are asking me why i wear hijab, why i eat halal food , why i pray etc. Here i see the importance of full knowledge of Islam and how you explain the beauty of Islam to other people. It is not easy to make them understand especially most of them had very bad experience with muslim. I realised now that preaching is the task of all Muslim and that's why man are called "Khalifah" . I hope to extend my journey to other states so that i can see the world more and learn more from different perspectives. Insyaallah if you have faith to Allah, Allah will have faith on you. ^_^
