MOTTO

The Day every soul will find what it has done of good present (before it) and
what it has done of evil, it will wish that between itself and that (evil) was a
great distance. And Allah warns you of Himself, and Allah is Kind to (His)
servants." (Ali ‘Imran, 3: 30)

Allah will rise up to suitable ranks and degrees of you who
believe and who have been granted mystic knowledge. And

Allah is well-acquainted with all you do.
(Q. S. Al Mujadilah: 11)

The biggest happiness in our lives is when we know if we are loved by
someone (Aditia Fatmawati)

Be your self, give the best effort and never give up
