Being 22 and 7 days Old

2011-07-29T01:00:00.000+08:00

Salaam people!

Okay, so been 22 for about a week now
And mind you, a gazillion of things have happened in just these 7 days!

And really I don't like the tears which have been goin' around these days
To see people you love break down is just so not cool yaaar!
You know, if I could turn back the time, I would
But who am I to do that?
And I know that all these are only happening to make us stronger
God is testing us
God wants us to remember Him
And God knows what's best for us all

May these tears go away
And laughter will come by to surround us soon

p/s: I love you little sister. If I could bring back all the joy, happiness and smiles that once filled you, I would, sweetie. But know that this is just the beginning. And Allah loves you.

*Ellen's style*
I was sooooooo very happy today when I woke up
And found that something I've been waiting for had arrived

It's as if they knew that someone's birthday's tomorrow!

So what's that,you must be wondering
TADAA!

Yeahh,it looks like a package cause it is a package from US

(they had my dad's name spelt wrongly..grrr..oh ohhh and my address too)

*rolls eyes*

But I don't give a damn
Now this is the accurate one!

So what's inside this nicely wrapped package????

(it wasn't actually that nice I'd say..a few crumples here and there and some stains..like eeeww!!)

But whatever!

So here's what's inside

YEAAHHH!Okay okay..here it comes..

Some of you may have seen this before

So pardon me

And some of us just can't be excluded from the description

It's a good laugh

CRAZY RIDE

2010-06-05T00:25:00.011+08:00

Salaam 'elaykum y'all!

So I hit the town today for dinner

My dad was supposed to drive

I gave him the car key and told him to drive

But nooooooo

He insisted that I drive

So yeahh I took the key and hit the busy road

I tell ya,Orchard Road was friggin' crowded!

The traffic was waaaay too heavy!

And like you'd guess

I can never face these kinda situations

I'd never fit in

Na-ahh

(I'm the PANIC QUEEN,remember?)

So there I was,driving and hoping I won't hit ANY living creature

They say the more careful you are,the more mistakes you'll make

So yepp,I have to believe that theory now

I almost hit 2 old men

But they were jay-walkin'!!!

How's that my fault!

Luckily my reaction time's not that bad
I made a great maneuver and I'm proud of myself!
*grins widely*

But that's not the climax yet

This one that I'm gonna tell ya will cause any human being

With a sane mind and sense of humour

To either shake their heads in disgrace or laugh their arses off

You know Centrepoint?

The one which has a traffic light in front of it and there'll be dozens of people crossing?

Yup that one!

I followed a car in front of me pretty closely

And when I thought I would make it to the next traffic light before the first one turned red,I couldn't make it and had to stop in the middle of the crowd of pedestrians!

The traffic light turned red and there I was,stuck right at the traffic light where the pedestrians were crossing

I was crowded by a wave of people!!

(for a moment I was the centre of attraction,mind you)

My gossshhhhh!

I wished there was a huge curtain to cover my car windows

My sis and I screamed our lungs out in the car

(Yupp with both our mouths wide opened and eyes half closed)

And I bet some pedestrians stared and laughed at us

(imagine a HUGE crowd crossing and you're like the only freakin' vehicle there in the middle.Can't it be more embarrassing?)

As I wondered how my mum and dad managed to stay cool and just laughed

Sheez,I think I blushed like hell

A group of guys laughed at me and looked at me as if I was the stupidest driver they've ever seen

(I bet they must be wondering how did this poor innocent girl passed her driving test)

And yesss I felt steewwww-pid!

Errgghh!

Gawwd,there it was,my pride

I saw it washed down the drain

*sighs*

Anywho,

The next time you see any car or driver stuck in a situation like I've mentioned above

It's either me or my acquaintances

Sometimes I wonder how I passed and got a car of my own

*looks down in disgrace*

Oh ohh ohh

Before I leave

I need to thank my sis

For standing by me

Especially during my embarrassing moments

Shim,there are still more to come!

So you must always be on guard okay,womann!
You're THE BEST!!
(I have to say this even though it's gonna hurt my ego a lil)

TEEHEE!

You remember the game Crazy Taxi?I think I'd make a good taxi driver for that game

They'll always love you and care for you

'Cause they just love the way you are

And when you can't think of the right words to say

They'll finish off the sentences for you

Because they know you better than yourself

And you can't lie to 'em

You know that!

MY 7-DAYS EXPERIENCE

2010-05-03T01:46:00.006+08:00

Hello people!

I've been busy lately

Hahaha,actually not really

Been lazing away

Sheez,I think even my house is sick of me

*huge sigh*

Anyways,last week on the 26th of May at exactly 1037hrs

I got what a teen has always wanted

(wait,am I still a teen??naahh,forget it!)

A driving licence!

(even though it's a temporary one,and mind you it's a BIG piece of paper,too big for a licence,it's still a licence)

And yessss,on the very day I passed

My dad made me hit the highway!

Craaaaay-zeeey as can be

It was scary!

I actually screamed in the car seconds before I entered the highway

(if you guys were askin' which highway,it's ECP)

And daaaang!

It was during the peak hour that my dad made me do the freakiest thing on earth

(yesss,after office hours)

Okay,so that's in the evening

That I drove my brother's car

Later that night

My dad made me drive his car

(not really a car. An SUV to be exact)

Yesss,imagine how big that is!

For an unfortunately small driver like me

You can't really see who's driving

(I swear I felt like a dwarf on a giant truck)

Ohhhh boy,I felt my head spinned

Luckily the car didn't spin

Sooooo that was the first day

The next day

I became my brother's chaffeur

(danggggg you bro)

HAHAHA

He made me drive all the way to BKE

When we were supposed to go to Queensway

(yesss,we were supposed to exit at Adam Rd)

And my sis and bro blamed me for that

Cause they said they were too focused on my driving

(they tried to make sure that I stayed in the lane)

Which eventually made 'em lose their attention on the exit

How's that my fault?

HAHAHAHA

Two people whom I trust so much whom I could rely on especially for directions

(fyi,I really don't have the sense of direction of a living creature!)

Have "breached" the confidence!

(errmm,nope..am not talking about the actual breach of confidence like in law..na-ah)

Hence we had to make a U-turn

And SNAP!We made a wrong exit again!

This time round,we chose Onreat Rd as our "exit"

(by the way,cool name for a road..okay,whatever)

And do you know where exactly that is??

I bet you've heard of ISD

Yeaaahh,that's the place where they ''store'' people

The worst part's that it was a friggin' small single carriageway!

And I had to make a U-turn 'cause there was a no-entry-except-authorised-personnel sign

Plus,there were 2 big drains,each at the sides

*slaps forehead*

Guess what

I made my way out

But of course with the most unimaginable way

And what did I get?

A devilish grin from a guy in a car entering the road

Bet he's one of the officers there

GOsssshhhhhhh!

And then the lunch at the Toa Payoh hub

I had to follow the way my instructor taught me how to do the vertical parking

I totally forgot about the existence of my creativity and common sense

I went by the book

And of course!

The honks and the flashlights in the carpark

(for a moment I felt like a diva walking on a red carpet..you know,flashes..flashes..okay Dian,you can stop now)

Luckily my dad was there too

So I got down from the car and let him park

After which,forgot to switch off the hazard light

Thanks to the person who "flashlighted" me

He told me that I'd left the car's hazard light switched on

*shakes head*

And again the carpark at Sempang Bedok

I swear it's the worst!

Okay maybe it's just me

But yeaaahh!It was dark and I couldn't even see the car next to me

(okay,sorry I'm exaggerating a lil)

But true it's dark

And again I couldn't go into the lot

I made the cabbie behind me mad I guess

And he "flashlighted" me

Not once,but a couple of times

My dad who was in his van,got down and shooed him away

My bro almost did the same

But luckily he didn't

That's what happens when you chose not to ride the van with your dad and drove your brother's car

*covers face with the most humongous blanket on earth*

On Sunday,the same thing happened

Got down from the car let my dad park the car

There were of course other things that I've done

You know like beating the red light 'cause I thought I saw the amber light,forgetting to stop at the traffic light junction 'cause I was unaware that it was a traffic light junction and pressing the accelerator till it hit 100km/h and I didn't even realise that!

What a mess I've caused within these 7 days

And yessss I think I've improved!

Errrr,I think

HAHAHA

Okay,but some things were exaggerated

So am not a reckless driver after all

If not I wouldn't have passed with 10 points ehh

And that too all accumulated from inside the circuit

HAHAHA

So all the chaos are over

Now it's the car

Come to mama!

(5 more days yaar!)

LOL!

(Finally one that I could call my own)

Alright,

Toodlesss!

p/s: I need to extend my gratitude to my most awesome sis cum P.A. for being so patient with me. HAHAHA. Shim,you must pass okay!So I can be your P.A. in return.HEHEHE

And I found this!

The 10 Most Ridiculous Lawsuits of All Time

Some people will try anything to make a million. Ever thought of suing someone because they look like you? Check out this and other frivolous lawsuits for a laugh, but don’t try them yourself! Frivolous lawsuits very rarely make it through the courts, and usually wind up costing the plaintiff.

Do Beautiful Women Really Come to Life When You Drink Bud Light? 1991, Richard Overton sued Anheuser-Busch for false and misleading advertising under Michigan State law. The complaint specifically referenced ads involving, among other things, fantasies of beautiful women in tropical settings that came to life for two men driving a Bud Light truck. In addition to two claims of false advertising, Mr. Overton included a third claim in his complaint in which he claimed to have suffered emotional distress, mental injury, and financial loss in excess of $10,0000 due to the misleading Bud Light ads. The court dismissed all claims. For more information about this lawsuit, click here.

If you can’t sue the system, sue yourself. 1995, Robert Lee Brock sued himself for $5 million. He claimed that he had violated his own civil rights and religious beliefs by allowing himself to get drunk and commit crimes which landed him in the Indian Creek Correctional Center in Virginia, serving a 23 year sentence for grand larceny and breaking and entering. What could he possibly have to gain by suing himself? Since being in prison prevented him from having an income, he expected the state to pay. This case was thrown out.

Criminals need not bear the responsibility for their crimes alone when the real money is in Hollywood. 1996, the family of Patsy Ann Byers sued Oliver Stone, Warner Brother, and others involved in the making and distribution of the movie Natural Born Killers for an unspecified amount. They claimed that the movie caused Sarah Edmondson and Benjamin Darrus to go on a crime spree which resulted in Edmonson shooting Byers during a robbery, leaving her paralyzed from the chest down. The lawsuit was originally filed in 1995, against Edmonson and Darrus, the actual perpetrators of the crime spree. Stone and the others involved with the film were added in 1996. The portion of the case aimed at Stone and his associates was dismissed in 2001.

Since when were haunted houses frightening? 2000, Cleanthi Peters sued Universal Studios for $15,000. She claimed to have suffered extreme fear, mental anguish, and emotional distress due to visiting Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights haunted house, which she said was too scary.

When kids commit heinous crimes, who is responsible? The makers of every video game they’ve ever played, of course. 2001, Linda Sanders and other family members of Columbine High School shooting victims sued 25 movie and video game companies for $5 billion, in a class action lawsuit.They claimed that were it not for movies includingThe Basketball Diaries and videos games including Doom, Duke Nukem, Quake, Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil, Mech Warrior, Wolfenstein, Redneck Rampage, Final Fantasy, and Nightmare Creatures, the massacre would not have occurred, and that the makers and distributors of the movies and games were partly to blame for their loved ones’ deaths. The case was thrown out and the plaintiffs were ordered to compensate the video game and movie companies for their legal fees.

Negligent security is a legitimate claim, when you’re the victim, not the perpetrator! 2002, Edward Brewer sued Providence Hospital for $2 million. He claimed that the hospital was negligent because it had not prevented him from raping one of its patients. The judge ruled that any damage Brewer suffered due to his crime was his responsibility for choosing to commit the crime, and that the hospital had no legal duty to protect him from that choice.

In another role reversal, dog killer sues victim’s owner for mental anguish. 2003, Andrew Burnett sued Sara McBurnett and the San Jose Mercury News, claiming they had caused him to suffer mental anguish and post traumatic stress disorder. Burnett filed the lawsuit while serving a three-year sentence for killing defendant McBurnett’s dog in a road rage incident, claiming that the incident had caused his suffering. The case was thrown out.

Music piracy can get you in real trouble, but you have to be alive to do it. 2005, Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) sued Gertrude Walton, who had passed away the year before at the age of 83, after having received notice of her death and a copy of the death certificate. The RIAA claimed that Watson had illegally downloaded and shared over 700 songs. Watson’s daughter claims that she never even had a computer in the house. Although RIAA dropped the case against Watson, it was only one of over 20,000 similar lawsuits filed by the association beginning in 2003. While some of the lawsuits are legitimate cases of piracy, defendants have included a twelve-year-old girl whose parents wound up paying RIAA $2,000, and families who have never owned a computer. Defendants can face charges of $150,000 per song.

Weak stomachs and gross-out TV don’t mix. 2005, Austin Aitken sued NBC for $2.5 million. He claimed that an episode of “Fear Factor” caused him “suffering, injury, and great pain.” He said that watching the contestants eat rats on television made him dizzy and light-headed, causing him to vomit and run into a doorway. He judge said the case was frivolous and threw it out.

Mistaken for a superstar? How insulting! 2006, Allen Heckard sued Michael Jordan and Nike founder Phil Knight for $832 million. He claimed to suffer defamation, permanent injury, and emotional pain and suffering because people often mistook him for the basketball star. Heckard dropped the lawsuit later that year.

So, what about the infamous McDonald’s coffee case – the one that kicked it all off? We all know that coffee is hot, that’s not in question. What most people don’t know is that McDonald’s was serving their coffee at about 180-190 degrees, hot enough to cause third degree burns in mere seconds. After 700 claims for serious injuries caused by their coffee, they continued to serve it at that temperature. 79-year-old, Stella Lieback suffered third degree burns, was in the hospital for eight days, had multiple surgeries and skin grafts. All she asked of McDonald’s was to pay her medical bills. They refused, prompting her and her family to take them to court. Contrary to popular belief, Stella did not walk away with millions.

Really something to be made fun of
And I bet the solicitors who represented any one of em must've been really really down in the mouth at the thought of what they had to go through
Imagine going through a case file which you know will get your case nowhere!
It's gonna suck big time!!
I'd most probably just sit on the file!
(not literally of course! HAHA)

I won't even start on the judges

They must've had the hardest time (actually not) to pass judgments

But come to think of it again
It's easy money for the solicitors yaaar!

The world's full of weirdos I'm telling ya!

In the Name of Allah The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful

Have you ever fallen in love?
If you were to ask me
I'd definitely say yes

I'd be lying if I had said otherwise
Love,crush,or whatever you may call it
But how could this happen?
Watch this to know the reason and the cure

Remember that the command to lower one's gaze also applies to women

And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex; and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O ye Believers! turn ye all together towards Allah, that ye may attain Bliss.

{Surah An-Nur:31}

Hence,seek His Love
For His Love is the Truest and Everlasting

Yet we forget that they've always been there

The stress is over~

2010-03-10T08:02:00.001+08:00

Assalamualaikum,

Finally the STRESS is over, I thought sooner or later, i'm gonna fell into depression, but Allah know's best, Those crazy times, where I work more than 12 hrs, went home at midnight, and almost everyday I went back late,cry, don't mention, its like always...

Trying my best at work, giving my best at tuition, relief at En-naem, I work 6 days a week, at yeah, and moreover trying to balance my time, between, ibadah, family, and friends.

Alhamdulilah No matter how tired I am, How stress I am, I did went to those 2 Islamic classes Tafsir and hadis.

Thanks to my dad, my pillar of strength, I still remembered he said, work work, busy busy, but don't because of this, it gives you the reasons to minimize your ibadah, to not go to all this Islamic classes.

Now, i gain some experience, working there for about a month, is actually, 3 more days to 1 month, the job itself, the bosses, the colleagues the clients, the surrounding, To the benefit for those who didn't know, I 27 days ago I started working at an accounting firm, as a full time job, this firm is actually deals with doing accounts and finance for other company.

I was in-charge of a company called 3G Logistics, they were my clients, i did, salary payout, invoice, and e.t.c.

It was quite hard for me, as at first my mentor went for holidays, and I was told to learn very fast, only 2 days, instead of two weeks, and this job has lots of deadlines, and you need to rush, if not, 1 deadline delayed, they rest will delay too, and its your amanah, who wants to received their salary late, or who want their salary over payed or underpaid. Its you amanah, at the end of the day, u'll be ask, where did you get your money from, and how do you spend them.

I like my job, my colleagues, but is just too stressful for me, too many work, and too many deadlines. Its tired to run and never stop, and the end of the day, the results that is most important, and when you rush you tend to be careless and stuff.

Anyway, I know, Allah has plan for me, I plan he decide, I plan to stay at this firm until the end of the year, but HE wants me to quit now, and do other things.

I leave everything to Allah's will.

What I know, I tried my best to do my amanah, I did not give up, and at the end of the day, there was no fights, my bosses love me, my client loves me, and it ends, in a beautiful ways.

Like what my cousin said, you come happily nicely, in a good way, you leave nicely.

I admit during those stressful days, I did mistreat some of my love once, especially, to my two younger brothers, Dian, and 2 of the NI-ans, I want to express my sincere apology, for all the mistake I did, I hope you forgive me.

I'm really grateful, to have an awesome family members and friends.

Thanks for all your support, during those times.

and really thanks a lot abah, mum, Muhd, Izah, Thalhah, Dian, and abang Thahir, for making me feel so much better, for calming me down, and stopping all this tears to come out.

continue to doa for me , InsyaAllah, in the future, who knows i get a better job, kalau rezeki murah, boleh belanja, or maybe taking my degree instead, who knows.

hehe, alright guys, i think i talk a lot,

Love you guys a lot,

take care=)

THEY ARE DIFFERENT!

2010-03-07T16:31:00.008+08:00

In the Name of Allah The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful

As usual, I'm gonna pen down my thoughts

Actually it has been on my mind for quite sometime

But only now I can find the best time to talk about it

So here it goes

I was on the bus on my way to meet my friends a few days back

And random commuters started to fill up the seats opposite mine and some beside me

So I started my normal routine of observing strangers

(okay,fyi I'm not a psycho and neither am I a geek. I just like observing people and it somehow stimulates my brain and sets me thinking)

The couple opposite me were doing God-knows what

A pair of friends beside me were laughing out loud and obviously were trying to attract the attention of the guy sitting opposite me who has a tattoed body

I have to admit that all of 'em are speaking my first language

And of course they are of that race

So I was a bit crestfallen by that mere fact

Hence I asked myself

So this is the "Malay-Muslim society" or "masyarakat Melayu-Islam" they're talkin' about huh?

You must be wondering why I'd put inverted commas to the aforesaid terms

Because I don't like the two terms to be put or "attached" together

You know,my point here is that these two terms are not supposed to be side-by-side

I often see 'em appear in the media as together

Which only confuses the society

You see,one needs to know that there is a major difference between the two

The latter is a religion while the former is a race

Islam is not owned by any races

Not even the Arabs own Islam

So why this term?

I think it's a bit unfair to have this term used

Why so?

Because,back to my earlier story

How can one be labelled a Muslim when he/she does not even symbolise it?

And it would be even more prejudiced to the people who practise Islam

The people around us will see that Malays equal to Muslims and Muslims equal to Malays

Which is factually and linguistically wrong

Point is,people will question

"Why can't you drink? My friend's a Malay but he drinks"

"Why are you wearing the headscarf? My friend's a Malay and she doesn't wear it"

"Why can't you have your body tattoed? My friend's a Malay and he has his body fully tattoed!"

And my answer would be

"Ohh,because they are Malays whereas I'm a Muslim.Islam prohibits all these acts and set guidelines but these prohibitions or guidelines are not found in the Malay traditions or rules because simply it is just a race."

You know,even sometimes we ourselves give the wrong ideas

When asked why we can't drink

We'll answer "Ohhh,Malays can't drink"

Guys,use the correct term!!

Now,you get what I'm trying to say?

People DO get confused!

They are in fact ignorant

People don't know the difference between a race and a religion

You may think that it's a minor matter and does not concern you so why should you bother

I used to have the same thinking too

But after sometime,I realised that I need to stand up for my deen (religion)

I can't just let ignorance spread and let my deen be perceived negatively

Just because some irresponsible people do whatever they like and claim Islam theirs

Yes I know most of the Malays here are Muslims

But that basically won't make Islam theirs

Islam is owned by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

And anybody (i.e. any race) can embrace Islam

Conclusively,act wisely

Always put your best character forward when you're in public

Because people will not judge you

But the whole lot of us who wears the same title

Because nobody in this world is as fair as Allah

Allah judges you fairly based on your acts or deeds

But people judge you and whoever surrounds you based on your acts or deeds

I know I may have hurt some people by putting this post up

But this is the truth

And I don't mean to hurt or be racist or whatever you call this

(how can one be racist towards her own race right?hehe)

Starting from today,use the correct terms

Don't use them interchangeably

It may sound pretty minor to some

But I bet there's a vast difference between these two terms

I am just reminding myself just in case I forget

And I hope that we can stop this ignorance together

InsyaAllah

On the authority of Al-Nawwas bin Samaan radhiyallahu 'anhu ,that the Prophet sallahu 'alaihi wasallam said:

Righteousness is good morality,and wrongdoing is that which wavers in your soul and which you dislike people finding out about" [Muslim]

Uqbah bin Amre Al-Ansari narrated that the Messenger of Allah said:

"Among the words people obtained from the First Phrophecy are:IF YOU FEEL NO SHAME,THEN DO AS YOU WISH" [Bukhari]

Oh...I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place
I'm walking with my head lowered for my race

FRIENDS OR FOES?

2010-02-17T02:03:00.004+08:00

In the name of Allah the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Remember I was talking about the 'in-crowd' a few days ago?

Yepp, the popular crowd or whatever you guys name 'em

I learnt about all these only when I put my feet into the 'tertiary education world'

And that too I realised only when I'm in my final year

All these things about peer pressure never hit me until I joined Poly

I thought that all these can only be seen on T.V.

But heyy, I was wrong

It's sooo true that sometimes I felt like I was one of the characters in a typical high school movie

I gotta tell you that I sure learnt lotsa stuff from all my so-called friends

(you must be wondering why the ''so-called'')

Sheez, I have to be frank here

Nobody..I repeat..NOBODY there (i.e. my course of study) can be regarded as friends

In fact, they are "frenemies"

In case some of you haven't heard of the aforesaid term

It's a word derived from the words "friends" and "enemies"

Which simply means "untrue friends"

There are of course nice people

But they aren't "nice" enough to be your friends

I don't know what's your definition of "nice"

As for me, nice means someone whom I can look up to and who represents his Deen

I think you'll get what I mean after you read the following

Choose who you Hang Out with
·        You become like those you hang out with. As the Prophet Muhammad Sall Allaahu`alayhi wa sallam once said, “A person is likely to follow the faith of his friend, so look (carefully) whom you choose to befriend.” (Ahmad)
·         Don’t belong to the ‘popular crowd’. The quarrels, competition, fads, and deception involved in the ‘popular crowd’ are not worth the image. Choose your friends based on character, not popularity or status.
·         Friends who are not sincere and do not love you for your principles, will    gradually lure you into an artificial world of false hopes. Either help these friends change gently, or abandon their company before it’s too late!
Does he help you become a better and productive person?
It’s a mistaken belief that a ‘good friend likes you for what you are’. A sincere friend inspires you, either with words or actions, to improve your personality and situation.

In a beautiful analogy, the Prophet Sall Allaahu`alayhi wa sallam likened the company of a sincere friend to visiting a perfume seller. Every time you visit the perfume seller, you benefit from his shop: You get some perfume as a present, or you buy some from him or, at the least, you obtain a beautiful fragrance from his company. (Bukhaari & Muslim)
·         Is she like a mirror to you?
The Prophet Sall Allaahu`alayhi wa sallam stated, “The believer is like a mirror to other believers (in truthfulness).” (Aboo Dawood). Like a mirror, your friend gives you an honest image. She forgives your mistakes, but does not hide or exaggerate your strengths and weaknesses.

·         Do his manners and lifestyle remind you of Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta`aala?
Once the Prophet Sall Allaahu`alayhi wa sallam was asked, “What person can be the best friend?” “He who helps you remember Allaah, and reminds you when you forget Him,” he, Sall Allaahu`alayhi wa sallam counselled.

The Prophet Sall Allaahu `alayhi wa sallam was further asked, “Who is the best among people?” He replied, “He who, when you look at him, you remember God”. Such a friend reflects qualities of love, mercy, honesty, service, patience, optimism, professionalism, and the entire lifestyle taught by Islam.

·         Does he love you solely for the sake of Allaah Suhaanahu wa Ta`aala?
The bonds we form at work, school and in the neighbourhood may whither over time if they are not built for the right reason. Friendship based on Islamic principles is sincere and everlasting, since it is strengthened by a higher purpose and fervent faith.

·         Do you feel comfortable and secure in her presence?
If your friend’s company makes you feel guilty about the things you do and thoughts you share, you must question the benefit of this relationship. Consider the wise saying: “Being alone is better than having an evil companion and having a sincere companion is better than being alone.”
If your friend does not like you for the beauty of your character, intelligence, morality, and sincerity, you deserve better!

And one thing that I've learnt from all the above
Is to choose who I befriend
What's the use of having SO MANY if they can't give you benefits
The benefits of getting closer to your Creator and to uphold your Deen

Lastly, be a good friend yourself

So that you can shine light unto others and others unto you

Insya-Allah

I am just reminding myself

For I am a forgetful creature

Whom sometimes is too attached to this temporary world

“And keep yourself content with those who call on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His Countenance, and let not your eyes pass beyond them to those who seek the pomp and glitter of this life...” (Al-Kahf 18:28 - interpretation of the meaning).

THE IN-CROWD

2010-02-09T00:24:00.005+08:00

In the name of Allah the Most Beneficent and the Most Merciful

I was in class today sitting and thinking
As I watched the others laughed,talked and gossipped
I kept asking this question
"Is this true?Or is everyone just pretending?"
People who had never talked to each other are now friends
Persons who used to be the subject of joke and the "cool" kids are now buddies
People take random pictures of each other from every corner of the class
Everybody seemed to know and like everyone

Is Facebook to be blamed?
Is it because someone just liked your post on Facebook or liked the photos you uploaded
You are friends with that person right away?
Or is it because you have so many friends on Facebook,you think you're popular
And thus you can be said to be the in-crowd?
And now that you're part of the in-crowd
You claim to be "cool"
And everyone wants to be your friend
And when everyone is now your friend ,you rule the class?
Or you rule the place and gain popularity?
Hey,do you know that you're not even close to being popular?
Even if you do,what is there to gain?

I left the class feeling awkward and strange
My heart and mind couldn't accept what's happening

"Why is everyone trying to be in the in-crowd?"
"What is so "cool" to be in that group of people?"
"What will you gain by just being part of it?"
"Why must you try to fit in just to make others feel better?"

So brothers and sisters, to increase your iman

Read the miracle, read the Quran

Here’s a fact for the ones who are keener

92 surahs revealed in Mecca, 22 in Medinah

Read it every day and to read it be proud

The word Quran means to read it aloud

Read the book from the Lord of the worlds

Over 6,000 verses and 77,000 words

Read with respect, no disturbance, no laughters

from Al Fatiha to An Naas, all 114 chapters

And in it 14 times you need to prostrate

And say Allah ho Akbar, meaning Allah is great

In this book, 25 prophets are mentioned by name

Who came at different times but their message was the same

This miracle was revealed over a 23 year span

Sent from Allah (swt), to an angel and then to a man

That man was Muhammed (saws), the best of creation

And we are proud to be part of his nation

He gave us a message and that was Islam

So read this miracle, read the Quran!

Peace unto y'all

I've been busy for the past I don't know how many weeks

Restless days and sleepless nights

Time seemed to fly pretty fast

WAIT!!! STOP!!!!!!!!!!

What is this?

I was too caught up in this...this dunya

I forgot to look around myself

I haven't even been able to look within myself
How disgraceful!

Is this what I've been wanting in life? What about the afterlife??

(Dian, you've totally forgotten about it)

Your purpose in life

Or were you just trying to conceal the truth?

The beautiful creations of the Almighty have since left my thoughts

The daily routine of remembering Him has become a burden to me

Why is it so hard to remember Him?

Only go to Him when you need Him?

How can I even let myself to think that He is not watching me during my busiest moments?

*casts eyes down*

Dear God

I've been so blind

Ignoring Your signs

Thank You my Lord for giving me everything that I have now

Sahih International

"Indeed in that are signs for those who discern."

Tafsir al-Jalalayn

Indeed in that, which is mentioned, there are signs, indications of God’s Oneness, for those who take note, [those who] observe and take heed.

"They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them."

As I look around
I see girls complainin' about their guys
Girls grumble about being stared at or touched by strangers
Young girls claiming "guys ain't respecting girls no more"

I turn around and see a group of young boys and girls
Holding hands, pushing each other and laughing

With so much disgrace, I turn and look away

"Would you buy second-hand goods?"

it didn't go the way that I want it to be...

Why did I get IT in the first place,

I remember my dad ask me to retake my O's.

But of coz who wanna go thru that stress again.

And so i leave it To Allah,

I'm doing IT, maybe there's a hikmah behind it

But I'm a lost child now,

work, NO~

Never in my life that I plan to work at the age of 20~

I wanna continue study,

something that I like,

that I'm good at~

I don't no, what to do, where to go~

Ya Allah Please guide me thru, and show me what's best for me.

Salaam all!

I am very very very happy today

I heard that my juniors in Madrasah Al-Arabiah Al-Islamiah did pretty well in their O-Levels

The top scorer got 7 points for her L1R4

Alhamdulillah!

There's also one who scored 9 points

Who said madrasah students can't do it?

Who said we can't make it to the top?

I'm proud of you my brothers and sisters

I pray that Allah will make you the stars that will shine

Make the ummah proud, make our deen proud

You are the futures of tomorrow

The light of the ummah

But sadly,they won't publish this

They don't want the world to know

They want to make us look like we're a bunch of fools,failures,etc.

I remember reading an article recently

It kinda said that the student featured in the article was the first madrasah student to enter poly or something around those lines

Are they nuts?!

Some of our seniors are already in NUS!

How did they think these seniors make it there?!

*sighs*

A few days back, my lecturer asked me whether I was featured in the "papers" or not when I graduated from madrasah and entered poly

I told her I wasn't

And she asked me why not because she saw a madrasah student featured in one of the "papers"

I simply said they didn't come

Probably they didn't bother to interview us

I think I have only one conclusion to that

They just didn't want the world to know

They made us sit for O's as private candidates

They published our bad performance for our PSLE results

They told the world our system ain't no good enough

They interfered with our learning system

Yet, when we showed 'em what we have

They didn't even bother

*shakes head*

Never mind my brothers and sisters

It's okay to not have the world to recognise you or know how well you're performing

Allah alone is enough for us all

Let Him be the judge

Because in the end, He will be the only judge on Judgment Day

And at the end of the day, nothing else matters

Except our imaan

I pray that with all the knowledge that Allah has provided us with

Will bring us to the correct path

And that we'll use it wisely

Because if not, Allah will question us on the Day of Judgment

Again,MARHA MARHA!

Then I remembered something a sister once told me

"You never cared. You're always waiting for me to make the first move. How long are you gonna be like this?"

That really made me ponder

Everytime I look at myself in the mirror

I'd ask myself

Am I really this stubborn and "hard"?

But I'd never be able to find an answer to this question

It's just the way I am

I care about my friendship

I love my friends as much as they love me

But one thing I lack is

I don't like to let my emotions show

I feel very uneasy if people can read my emotions

Especially in a relationship i.e. friendship

Remember I once told y'all that I'm not good at expressing my feelings/emotions?

Yeahh, this is what I was talkin' about

People always think I couldn't care less

Especially friends

(my family reads me pretty well)

One thing for sure my friends

I really do care about y'all

But I don't like it to show

So if I didn't call, text, e-mail or talk to you for days or weeks

It's not that I didn't care

I just didn't wanna bother you 'cause you might be busy with something

Family, school, work, etc.

And just so you know

This I did because I cared for your well-being

I didn't wanna go into your personal space

'Cause I have mine too

Because I believe in this golden rule

"Do unto others as you would want done unto you"

What I give is what I expect in return

If I don't like to be interrupted when I'm out with my family, I won't do the same to others

I know I may sound like a selfish lad

Nevertheless, I was brought up this way

So I adapted this poem which expresses my thoughts and feelings

I can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts,
Or fears. But I can listen to you, and together we will
Search for answers.

I can't change your past with all its heartache and pain,
Nor the future with its untold stories.
But I can be there now when you need me to care.

I can't keep your feet from stumbling.
I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall.

Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine;
Yet I can share in your laughter.

Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge;
I can only support you, encourage you,
And help you when you ask.

I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship,
From your values, from me.
I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you.

I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you,
But I can give you the room to change, room to grow,
Room to be yourself.

I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting,
But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces
And put them back in place.

I can't tell you who you are.
I can only love you and be your friend.

May Allah Make It Easy In Whatever We Do

Insya-Allah

And that is why people like me need sayings, lyrics and poems

They're really helpful especially for someone who has an "emotional deficiency"

Peace be unto you!

I was trying to read my notes

But my thoughts kept wandering

I couldn't take charge of my mind

It kept jumping from one to another

Then I learnt that the least the mind can hold a thought is for 3 seconds

And the one thought I managed to take a firm grasp of

"Where has all my time gone to?"

I kept asking myself why didn't I have time to do this and do that

My work is piling up

Deadlines are drawing nearer

I've got like what,10 deadlines just for January??

And then suddenly I heard my inner voice telling me to stop

"Stop what?" I had asked

Stop being too indulged in this worldly stuff

I have forgotten the most important thing in life

The reason I'm being here and doing all these

Ohh Allah

I forgot to kneel down to You

I thought I could survive without You for a few minutes

My busy schedule has caused me to cast You aside

I am such an ungrateful soul!

An arrogant pathetic living!

Astaghfirullah-al 'adzim

Hence this poem...

I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work
For bills would soon be due.

So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees.
My Muslim duty was now done
My soul could rest at ease.

All day long I had no time
To spread a word of cheer.
No time to speak of Allah to friends,
They'd laugh at me I'd fear.

No time, no time, too much to do,
That was my constant cry,
No time to give to souls in need
But at last the time, the time to die.

I went before the Lord,
I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God held a book;
It was the book of life.

God looked into his book and said
Your name I cannot find.
I once was going to write it down...
But never found the time"

How I wish I'd never whisper to you one day

"I disobeyed you my Lord"

I know you forgive my sins

And conceal my defects

Ohh Allah please help me Lord

Don't let me go astray and show me the right path

So that I'll be amongst the righteous and not those who catch your wrath

Ameen

WHAT HAPPENED?

2010-01-03T17:13:00.003+08:00

What happened to the ummah once known so well?
Our greatness was known, but now can you tell?
Our Masaajid are empty, but our refrigerators are stocked.
We've lost our deen, but we feel secure, our mansions are locked.

What happened to the ummah once known so well?
Our greatness was known, but now can you tell?
Our children don't know even how to pray.
"but hey, little Mo got an A in Physics, so I guess that's OK."

What happened to the ummah once known so well?
Our greatness was known, but now can you tell?
We sleep through fajr, but are up for the world cup.
"What go to the Mosque? Brother I'm busy filling my pocket up!"

What happened to the ummah once known so well?
Our greatness was known, but now can you tell?
Children in Africa are starving and thus can't even afford to cry.
"What? Sorry I missed that, I was on my cell, but go on I just said good-bye."

What happened to the ummah once known so well?
Our greatness was known, but now can you tell?
We used to smile at each other with faces full of light.
Now we frown at each other, we bicker and we fight.

What happened to the ummah once known so well?
Our greatness was known, but now can you tell?
The Qur'an has left our hearts and is stranded hanging on our walls.
"Brother what was that, did you say something about a mall?"

What happened to the ummah that was once so fare?
"Forget the ummah, man I don't even really care!"
But our sisters in Chechnya are raped, beaten and left alone just weeping!
"Brother, I got to go, my pager is beeping............."

Salaam!

A lot of things are running on my mind right now
They're all over my brain cells!
Can't seem to identify which is bothering me the most
Okay, listen to this

We used to be so full of hope and aspirations

Now we only giving in to our temptations
And the media full of half an hour series
Ain't nothing serious
These signs will make us feel inferior
Stopping all the protests when they conquer Syria
We live in world of things
Snatchin' all the focus when the war begins
They using billions of dollars on pre-war campaigns
Convincing us to take their side in this money game
We used to walk as lions
Groundbreaking in everything from design to science
But divided into nations they muted our defiance
And middle eastern rulers are all a part of this

Hypocrisy turned out to be a profitable business
But y'all listen, everything's gonna be alright
If the King of kings Rabbil 'alameen stand by my side
Stand by my side

Ya Rabbi, Rabbi stand by me
Oh stand by me
Oh stand now,stand by me
Stand by me

Here's some facts for your deliria
10% of the money in America
Comes straight from families in Saudi Arabia
Internally guarding values as Islam's savers
If only half of these people were helping al miskeen
No one would die of hunger in Ummat al Muslimeen
But instead of helping out the poor
They be building casinos 2 miles off shore
But for sure The Day will arrive to choose
Between people of An Naar and people of An Nuur
Cause when Bedouins with money running nations
Competing to build the highest houses with no foundations
Signs of the Final Hour drawing nearer

And people too attached to life will find that what is to them dear
Will disappear and left will only be the Truth of The Revealer
La ilaha illa Allah Mohammed Rasool Allah
I'm a believer

Sallahu 'Alaih wasallam (4x)

Ya Rabbi, Rabbi stand by me
Oh stand by me
Oh stand now stand by me
Stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountain should trumble to the sea
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
Just as long as You stand,stand by me

Ya Rabbi, Rabbi stand by me

Ohh stand by me
Oh stand now stand by me
Stand by me (3x)

Alright Dian
There's nothing to be afraid
Your Lord is in fact very near to you
Make du'a y'all

*Kecantikan wanita bukan pada kehalusan wajahnya. Tetapi kecantikan yang murni, terpancar pada jiwanya, yang dengan penuh kasih memberikan perhatian dan cinta yang dia berikan. Dan kecantikan itu akan tumbuh sepanjang waktu.

A very very good story, presenting "4 WIVES" ~

2009-11-18T09:29:00.004+08:00

There was a rich merchant who had 4 wives. He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her to delicacies. He took great care of her and gave her nothing but the best.

He also loved the 3rd wife very much. He's very proud of her and always wanted to show off her to his friends. However, the merchant is always in great fear that she might run away with some other men.

He too, loved his 2nd wife. She is a very considerate person, always patient and in fact is the merchant's confidante. Whenever the merchant faced some problems, he always turned to his 2nd wife and she would always help him out and tide him through difficult times.

Now, the merchant's 1st wife is a very loyal partner and has made great contributions in maintaining his wealth and business as well as taking care of the household. However, the merchant did not love the first wife and although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her.

One day, the merchant fell ill. Before long, he knew that he was going to die soon. He thought of his luxurious life and told himself, "Now I have 4 wives with me. But when I die, I'll be alone. How lonely I'll be!"

Thus, he asked the 4th wife, "I loved you most, endowed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?" "No way!" replied the 4th wife and she walked away without another word.

The answer cut like a sharp knife right into the merchant's heart. The sad merchant then asked the 3rd wife, "I have loved you so much for all my life. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?" "No!" replied the 3rd wife. "Life is so good over here! I'm going to remarry when you die!" The merchant's heart sank and turned cold.

He then asked the 2nd wife, "I always turned to you for help and you've always helped me out. Now I need your help again. When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?" "I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!" replied the 2nd wife. "At the very most, I can only send you to your grave." The answer came like a bolt of thunder and the merchant was devastated.

Then a voice called out : "I'll leave with you. I'll follow you no matter where you go." The merchant looked up and there was his first wife. She was so skinny, almost like she suffered from malnutrition. Greatly grieved, the merchant said, "I should have taken much better care of you while I could have !"

Actually, we all have 4 wives in our lives

a. The 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish in making it look good, it'll leave us when we die.

b. Our 3rd wife. Our possessions, status and wealth. When we die, they all go to others.

c. The 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how close they had been there for us when we're alive, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.

d. The 1st wife is in fact our soul, often neglected in our pursuit of material, wealth and sensual pleasure.

Guess what? It is actually the only thing that follows us wherever we go. Perhaps it's a good idea to cultivate and strengthen it now rather than to wait until we're on our deathbed to lament

* Knowledge Enlivens the Heart *

2009-11-10T14:06:00.001+08:00

Acquire knowledge because doing so is good. Seeking it is worship. Reviewing it is glorifying Allah. Researching it is jihad. Teaching it to the ignorant is charity. Serving the scholars is a way of drawing near to Allah because knowledge is the path of ascension to the ...stations of Paradise.

It is a companion in isolation and a comrade in distant lands. It speaks to you in solitude. It is a guide to prosperity and a shield against adversity. It beautifies one among friends and is a weapon against enemies. With it Allah elevates people and makes them guides and bellwethers of good.

The scholars are people whose words are sought and whose actions are imitated. The angels long for the scholar’s company and comfort them with their wings. Everything, the fish of the sea, the beasts of the earth, the predators of the land and sea, and the cattle pray that blessings come upon him.

This is because knowledge enlivens the heart against ignorance, illuminates the eyes against darkness, and strengthens the body. It transports the servants to the mansions of the select and the righteous and to the highest ranks in the world and in the Hereafter.

Contemplating it is equivalent to fasting, and reviewing it is equivalent to the Night Prayer vigil. With it, kinship is united and the lawful is distinguished from the unlawful. Knowledge is an imam which leads to righteous actions. It is craved by the people destined for Paradise and shunned by people destined for Hell.

Apa salahnya berdiam sejenak ketika azan?

2009-11-10T09:43:00.003+08:00

Salam,
everyone:)

Here's an artikel written by a dear friend, atiqah
I find it very good, enjoy:)

Apa salahnya berdiam sejenak ketika azan?

http://cyberita.asia1.com.sg/mrencana/story/0,6879,153072,00.html

Oleh
Nur Atiqah Haizan
Pelajar Madrasah Al-Maarif Al-Islamiah

'Baris.... Sedia!'
...*lagu kebangsaan pun dimainkan*

EH nanti... nanti, ini bukan peringatan bagi Hari Kebangsaan, bukan sama sekali. Itu dah lama pun berlalu. Tapi saja teringat tentang Hari Kebangsaan dan barisan semasa upacara tersebut.

Teringat pula semasa di sekolah, setiap hari Isnin saya terpaksa berdiri di hadapan (ehem, maklumlah ketua pelajar, hehehe...) bersama pembantu ketua pelajar untuk menyanyikan lagu kebangsaan dan membacakan ikrar.

Semestinya bukan suatu kerja mudah. Pelajar juga seringkali diingatkan untuk berdiri dengan tegak, tidak bergerak dan berdiam sebagai tanda penghormatan. Wah, satu tugas yang baik dan mulia bukan?

Apabila seorang pelajar bergoyang, tak tahu nak berdiri dengan tegak, terpaksalah ditegurkan sebelum guru lain nampak. Tapi itu masa zaman sekolah, ada saja yang nak menegur kesilapan kita. Bagaimana pula jika sudah tidak bersekolah ya? Siapa nak tegurkan?

Hmm... oh ya, mengapa kita berdiam diri semasa lagu kebangsaan dimainkan? Ada sesiapa yang tahu? Oh, tanda hormatlah Atiqah. Oh hormat rupanya, barulah saya tahu! Tetapi... saya hairanlah, kenapa semasa azan di masjid berkumandang, jarang sekali kita lihat para jemaah yang tidak bercakap hinggalah azan selesai. Susah tau nak lihat, betul tak bohong. Mana 'hormat' tadi hilang?

Ada yang tiba di masjid semasa azan bergema, masuk ke perkarangan masjid sambil tersenyum riang dan saling bersalam-salaman dengan jemaah lain. Alhamdulillah, bagus. Ia merupakan suatu amalan yang luhur dan murni lagi boleh diteruskan.

Tapi yang spoilnya, dia berbual pula... mula buka cerita... ingatkan lepas azan dah habis, cerita habis, sekali tu azan dah selesai, ceritanya masih tak sudah. Apa nak jadi? Apabila lagu kebangsaan kita boleh senyap, mengapa tidak semasa azan ya? Bukankah azan tu lagi penting? Kan... kan...kan...? Agaknya cerita yang nak disampaikan tu cerita panas ke, sampai tak boleh tunggu lepas azan? Iyalah takut cerita tu basi pula nanti. Hehehe...

Saya ada terbaca satu hadis yang bermaksud: 'Hendaklah kamu mendiamkan diri ketika azan, jika tidak Allah akan kelukan lidahnya ketika maut menghampirinya.' Gerun tau baca hadis ni kawan-kawan! Cuba bayangkan, roh dah di pangkal, tapi lidah kelu tak boleh nak mengucap lailahaillallah. Eee... minta jauhkan daripada kita semua.

Apalah salahnya kita diam seketika sepanjang azan berkumandang? Bukannya lama pun, tidak sampai sepuluh minit. Lepas tu kalau nak cerita sampai azan yang berikut, ah silakanlah.

Saya rasa macam nak cadangkan sesuatulah pada masjid-masjid di Singapura. Boleh tak agak-agak? Kalau sekarang sudah biasa kita lihat papan tanda memberi amaran 'Dilarang berjual beli di dalam masjid', apa kata kita buat papan tanda baru 'Hormati azan, insya-Allah dapat mengucap' Ataupun 'Hormatilah azan, tiada panggilan yang selayaknya selain panggilan Ilahi' (panjang betul pesanan papan tanda ni!) atau apa-apa saja yang sewaktu dengannyalah.

Kawan saya pula mencadangkan agar setiap kali sebelum muazin melaungkan azan, beliau mengingatkan agar semua jemaah senyap. Bagus juga idea tersebut! Boleh dipertimbangkan.

Oleh itu, diamlah sejenak, sekejap saja tidak lama... Diam sebagai tanda hormat mendengar panggilan Allah pada kita, hamba-Nya. Tak banyak pun, Allah cuma panggil kita lima kali saja dalam masa sehari. Jadi, mari sama-sama kita cuba hayati dan berdiam semasa azan dilaungkan dan semasa lagu hari kebangsaan didendangkan.

Wahabi~

2009-11-09T10:27:00.002+08:00

ku nasihatkan, rujukan kita adalah al-Qur'an dan sunnah Nabi
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku katakan, hadis hendaklah dipastikan sahih dari Nabi
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku cuba amalkan ibadatku mengikut cara Nabi
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku cuba amalkan solat mengikut cara Nabi
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku nasihatkan bahawa amalan itu dan ini bukan dari Nabi
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku katakan ramai guru-guru kini tidak mengajar dengan kaedah yang asli
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku bertanya guru, apakah dalil sahih untuk aku ikuti
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku katakan agama ini tidak semesti semuanya mengikut as-Syafie
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku katakan, khurafat, syirik dan bid'ah amat dilarang oleh Nabi
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku tidak hadiri kenduri arwah kerana ianya dilarang oleh Nabi
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku mengatakan kenduri arwah juga dilarang oleh as-Syafie
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku katakan amalan khusus Nisfu Sya'ban bukan diajar oleh Nabi
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku juga katakan ianya juga dilarang oleh al-Qaradhawi
Lalu aku dipanggil Wahabi

Aku pun tidak tahu, siapakah sebenarnya Wahabi?

Kata mereka Wahabi adalah Wahabi

Aku bertanya lagi, siapakah sebenarnya Wahabi?

Kata mereka Wahabi adalah Wahabi

Aku semakin bingung siapa itu Wahabi

Namun ...

Jika benar Wahabi adalah yang nak ikut sunnah Nabi... Biarlah aku
dipanggil Wahabi

Jika benar Wahabi yang melarang khurafat, syirik dan bid'ah dari diikuti... Biarlah aku dipanggil Wahabi

BEING A YOUTH

2009-11-09T00:40:00.001+08:00

Salaam!

"How old are you?"
"Errr,twenty? Why'd you ask?"
"What are you gunna do after this?"
*pin-drop silence*

I've been thinking about what I'm gunna do next after I graduate
Only a few more weeks before the second semester begins
And less than 5 months before I leave the school
But what's been bothering me is
What have I done to change this world?
What good have I brought to my ummah?
I would disgracefully say I've done nothing

You know,the sahabah at my age would have achieved and done a lot for their ummah
Led the army and things like that
I am nothing,I repeat NOTHING as compared to 'em
Instead,I'm following the west
Trying to be just like 'em
When I am supposed to be concerned about my Deen
How irresponsible am I?!

Oh Allah,please don't let syaitaan to lead me astray
Please draw me closer to You
I'm callin' You
Please take no more than I deserve
Still need to learn more

Oh Allah,please protect the Youths of Islam
Do not let us go away from you
Ameen...

Let's wake up y'all!
We ain't letting 'em snatch away our identity from us no more

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: You would tread the same path as was trodden by those before you inch by inch and step by step so much so that if they had entered into the hole of the lizard, you would follow them in this also. We said: Allah's Messenger, do you mean Jews and Christians (by your words)" those before you"? He said: Who else (than those two religious groups)? [Sahih Muslim, Book 34, Hadith 6448]

THE ART OF COMPLAININ'

2009-11-08T01:22:00.003+08:00

Peace be upon y'all

I've been thinkin' 'bout this for quite sometime
And I finally came out with the verdict
I think I complain a lot
Like "I don't have this, I don't have that"
"I don't like this and I hate that"
Doncha think so?
But as I look at myself and the life I'm living
It's not that bad after all
I just like to complain
Ungrateful me!
*shakes head*

So whenever you think your life "sucks"
Like many of us think
Hey,just remember that we at least have shelters and food everyday
Which others may not have
Say "ALHAMDULILLAH"

Look into my eyes

Tell me what you see
You don't see a damn thing
'cause you can't relate to me
You're blinded by our differences
My life makes no sense to you
I'm the persecuted one
You're the red, white and blue

Each day you wake in tranquility
No fears to cross your eyes
Each day I wake in gratitude
Thanking God He let me rise
You worry about your education
And the bills you have to pay
I worry about my vulnerable life
And if I'll survive another day
Your biggest fear is getting a ticket
As you cruise your Cadillac
My fear is that the tank that has just left
Will turn around and come back

Yet, do you know the truth of where your money goes?
Do you let the media deceive your mind?
Is this a truth nobody, nobody, nobody knows?
Has our world gone all blind?

Yet, do you know the truth of where your money goes?
Do you let the media deceive your mind?
Is this a truth nobody, nobody, nobody knows?
Someone tell me ...

Ooohh, let's not cry tonight
I promise you one day it's through
Ohh my brothers, Ohh my sisters
Ooohh, shine a light for every soul that ain't with us no more
Ohh my brothers, Ohh my sisters

See I've known terror for quite some time
57 years so cruel
Terror breathes the air I breathe
It's the checkpoint on my way to school
Terror is the robbery of my land
And the torture of my mother
The imprisonment of my innocent father
The bullet in my baby brother
The bulldozers and the tanks
The gases and the guns
The bombs that fall outside my door
All due to your funds
You blame me for defending myself
Against the ways of my enemies
I'm terrorized in my own land (what)
And I'm the terrorist?

Yet, do you know the truth of where your money goes?
Do you let the media deceive your mind?
Is this a truth nobody, nobody, nobody knows?
Has our world gone all blind?

Yet, do you know the truth of where your money goes?
Do you let the media deceive your mind?
Is this a truth nobody, nobody, nobody knows?
Someone tell me ...

Ooohh, let's not cry tonight, I promise you one day it's through
Ohh my brothers, Ohh my sisters,
Ooohh, shine a light for every soul that ain't with us no more
Ohh my brothers, Ohh my sisters,

Americans , do you realize that the taxes that you pay
Feed the forces that traumatize my every living day
So if I won't be here tomorrow
It's written in my fate
May the future bring a brighter day
The end of our wait

(pause)

Ooohh, let's not cry tonight, I promise you one day it's through
Ohh my brothers, Ohh my sisters,
Ooohh, shine a light for every soul that ain't with us no more
Ohh my brothers, Ohh my sisters,

[with kids]
Ohh let's not cry tonight I promise you one day is through
Ohh my brothers! Ohh my sisters!
Ooh shine a light for every soul that ain't with us no more
Ohh my brothers! Ohh my sisters!

And I also think I need to do some reflections
