FROM MATRICULATION TO CONVOCATION BI'IDHNILLAH! A hearty happy matriculation to all the newly admitted world class students of Lagos State University. On this day, I celebrate you all, as this is JUST a stepping stone to your victory, greatness and academic excellence.
Still, I want to remind us that this matriculation ceremony will only last for A DAY, but the REPUTATION you build as a student of this university as well as your GRADES, will last FOREVER.
Dear world class students, I rejoice with you on this joyous occasion, and you have the right to enjoy it to the fullest, for today is your day. But in as much as you are trying to make today a memorable day, in as much as you are trying to live this moment, in as much as you are trying to look your best on this day, and in as much as you are going to indulge in fun filled activities, do not indulge CONSCIOUSLY OR UNCONSCIOUSLY in activities that will tarnish your reputation,
do not have fun to the extent that you stain your chastity, do not be tempted to remove your hijab JUST TO LOOK GOOD OR PLEASE YOUR FRIENDS, for your hijab is your CHASTITY, it is MANDATORY for you to use it, and it is the ideal beauty you need to attract the best of ALLAH'S creatures.
As you celebrate this day my dear world class student, PLEASE do not be tempted to wear exposed and indecent clothes all in the name of fashion or attracting the attention of guys who have LITTLE OR NOTHING TO OFFER TO YOUR PERSONAL GROWTH OR AL-JANNAH, do not disobey Allah all in the name of having fun and obeying your nerves, do not disobey your parents just to obey your friends, do not drink alcohol all in the name of having fun, do not be tempted to go clubbing, for that night may be YOUR PAINFUL LAST NIGHT ON EARTH,
Do not allow anyone tamper with the sensitive parts of your body, do not over do anything, do not over-eat, for it has it's own side effects, do not indulge in tabarruj(unnecessary and incessant display of what is meant to be concealed as a lady), do not cross your boundaries, and most importantly DO NOT NEGLECT YOUR SALAT just because you want to take pictures or indulge in worldly acts, for in the end, your salat and NOT the pictures you take will earn you the Ramah of Allah or Al-Jannah.
Lastly, amidst all the stress, distractions and obstacles, always stay strong and never forget WHY you are here.
