It was hard for me during my last semester. My mother was diagnosed with a stroke just after I took my first final paper. I was so sad and was feeling demotivated,\u009d Nur Fatihah described her feelings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though there were many challenges, overall, with support from her family and friends, she overcame all the challenges, although she almost gave up multiple times when things did not go her way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u0153Allah SWT surely knows what&#8217;s best for me, and He tested me with challenges to grant me this achievement after all the sweat and tears,\u009d Nur Fatihah said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nur Fatihah added that her mother is her inspiration, &#8220;When I think I cannot take it or do it, I always tell my mother to pray for me to make everything easy&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u0153My family is also my source of inspiration. They never forget to pray for me and congratulate me on my achievement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Losing my father after Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) broke my heart, and after his passing, my eldest brother, Faez, has since become my father figure and has always supported me,\u009d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Nur Fatihah, being in good surroundings and with good people surely impacts her growth. Having good lecturers and friends is the greatest blessing she appreciates and is irreplaceable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u0153No matter your struggles, always remember that Allah SWT knows what is best for us. We are diamonds in the making. We have gone through all sorts of hurdles to be diamonds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;You can rest but never give up, come back stronger for yourself, your family, and everyone who loves you,\u009d she concluded.***<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Farah Husna GOMBAK, 28 December 2022: Despite being tested in her final semester, Nur Fatihah was still able to deliver her best in final&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23897,"featured_media":171723,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,4,11,8,3,24],"tags":[],"nelio_content":{"isAutoShareEnabled":true,"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"followers":[11247,156,91,469,23897],"suggestedReferences":[],"efiUrl":"","efiAlt":"","highlights":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[]},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/nur-fatihah.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/171301"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/23897"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=171301"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/171301\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":172273,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/171301\/revisions\/172273"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/171723"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=171301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=171301"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=171301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
