Salam.
I'm having a problem about my night dreams for the past few days.
I had good and nice dreams at the beginning of my sleep but they were a sort of nightmare at the end or in the middle of it. lol.
Yesterday I dreamed of traveling the whole peninsular via a caravan.If happened you had the experience of traveling via a caravan in certain countries where there are those things you should know that there are pit stop in every (I don't know) miles.You'll need to refuel,rest and get other services there.Like if you're traveling during winter,the pit stop will provide you the electricity for you to plug in the cable for the heater.
It's a nice thing to travel in a caravan.
Unfortunately since I dreamed of traveling across Malaysia,I don't know why or how I've been killed by someone at the pit stop.(though Malaysia never had such pit stop)- I'm dead.
I believed it's a safe place (pit stop)since we never encountered any problems while traveling via caravan across xxx years back.
All of my dreams I could summarize that I was dead at the end of it.
Camping with friends at the beach and setting up camp fire and overnight in a tent is a nice dream to have.The nightmare comes when someone sneaking into your tent and stab your chest with a knife.- I dreamed that incident was happening to me.
I can't help myself to list down all of the nightmares.
Wallahu'alam.
- I believed the crimes in Malaysia which keep on rising from day to day have a major contribution to all of my dreams.
We do not feel secure enough everywhere,anywhere and at any time.The feeling of insecure affected our mind and later affected our subconscious mind.
*As long as we didn't take Allah as our LORD,the insecurity will keep on happening...

3.0 (Three point 'O')
Assalamualaikum
3.0? what's that mean?Well I'm proudly to announce that we're going to organize the next BERSIH 3.0 next week..Ops..Joking.
Oh it's about the next Nasi Lemak 3.0.The most awesome film of the year.
No no no..Not about that.
It's about 3.0 - Too confidence brings nothing but ruin.Yes,that's all about!
I found my MUET (Malaysian University English Test) result slip in my file the other day.Looking at the result made me feel 'silly'. Why?
Let me briefly tell you.
On the day of 'writing skills' exam I was so and too confident.Well,not to say that I got an A1 for my English in the SPM and A2 for the GCE level.These two things keep on telling me that I can easily strike the written exam.
I read once the question and start writing.The ideas and points keep on growing in my mind and I just harvest them with my pen,confidently.
As I walked out the exam hall I realized something.I had wrongly answering the question.
The question asked about the relevance of incorporating the firearm training for the National Service camp.
As I looked at the word 'firearm' I don't know why suddenly the term firefighter came to my mind and my mind starts generating ideas and points for the relevance of firefighting training for the National service camp.Of course it's totally two different things. (Ok take 5 to laugh and cursing me for the 'silly' thing I'd done)
What else I could do at that point?Just praying and hoping that Allah will help me.
At the end of the day,I only deserved Band 3 for my MUET though I've scored so so in other skills (speaking.listening,reading etc.)
For the writing skills,I only got 17 / 75..hahaha.What a shame!
Overall points/marks, I need another 2 marks for me to achieve Band 4. If only I've scored in my writing, I should have received Band 4 or 5..Allah knows best :)
The moral of the story is:
- Confidence is good but never be too confidence.
- Read the question more than one though u've already understood what to do cause your eyes might lied.hehe
- Never ever looking back for the mistakes u'd done but keep on stepping forward and looking for a better future.
- Allah is our creator and He knows best what His creations need and deserve.
Wallahu'alam.

Postponing piddle
Rahim (not a real name)is a young man was driving a car with his friend to Bota Kanan when suddenly he feels the need to urinate..Rahim told his friend about his 'need' and his friend just nodding without saying any words indicating he is listening.
His friend pointing the signboard indicated 'Masjid 500m ahead' on the left side of the road and expecting Rahim to stop by to fulfill his need.
As they come across the Masjid,Rahim didn't stop the car and he keeps on driving. "You said u wanna pee?" asked his friend.
"Yeah,but it's ok to wait and postponing my pee", replied Rahim.
"Are you serious?You could suffer 'coral reef' if you keeps on doing that", argued his friend.
(His friend keeps on lecturing to Rahim about the effects and consequences of postponing the urinate)
After about 15 minutes they come across another Masjid and at this time Rahim stop the car and went to the toilet.
5 minutes later,they're both on the road again.The watch strikes 1.30pm and it's already the time for zuhur prayer.
"We'll stop at another Masjid for solat", tells Rahim.
"No,no,no..It's too early.Maybe we could wait and stop later and perform it when we reached Bota", countered his friend.
"Hmmm..ok la.Insha Allah the time we reached Bota,It's still Zuhur and we could perform it at any Masjid in Bota", replied Rahim,agreeing with his friend idea.

Prostrating when we still have the chance.Who knows our soul will still be here later?
This situation seems familiar to us..We only stop at the Masjid to 'hurriedly' fulfill our 'need' as we know the health effects of postponing the piddle.
But when it comes to prayer,we tend to have double standard judgement though we're passing by a Masjid where at that time azan is being called.We assume we could pray later.
The Imam Hassan Al Banna once told us "Whenever you heard the calling for prayer,stands up and perform it in whatever situation/condition." (the 10 Advices of Hasan Al-Banna)
Wallahu'alam...

The Black Dot
A teacher asked his students to take out a piece of white blank paper and draw a small dot using their black ink pen in the middle of the paper.The dot shouldn't be too big or too small.Just so so and should easily seen by the naked eyes.
Just a simple order...
After a while the teacher asked the students what did they see on the paper.Students are eager answering the question and most of them saying that they could see a black dot.Nothing else...
Some of the 'brilliant' students trying to impress the teacher by giving technical answer or I could say 'scientific answer'..
The teacher smile and nodding his head,agreeing with all the answers.
Then the teacher starts to talk;
"It's a normal thing for a normal people to give that answer.Yes,even an adult would normally give the same answer."
Only certain people or the 'chosen one' would answer that he/she could see the white colour on the plain paper instead of the tiny black dot."
Yes,this is what I wanted to highlight here.In reality, this analogy story is exactly portrayed what we like and enjoy doing.- looking for others' mistakes.
The white paper is much more dominant compared to the tiny little dot,but why we tend to see the tiny one instead of the 'giant' one?
Human in nature is bound to commit sins and mistakes.However,I believed that the good things are much more being done compared to the mistakes.
Unfortunately, the thousands of good deeds couldn't easily erased or at least blurring the 'one mistake'.Yet the one mistake is lift up and 'hooo hooo' around and among the people like the hooligans.
To cut short,the good sinners are those who repent and return to Allah and realized the mistakes he/she committed.
As a 'watcher'/ 'observer' no need for us to be judgmental all the time.Who are we to judge people?

Fulfillment of Promises and Hypocrisy
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,"Three are the signs of a hypocrite:
1) When he speaks, he lies;
2) When he makes a promise, he breaks it;
3) And when he is trusted, he betrays his trust.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
Another narration adds the words: "Even if he observes Saum (fasts), performs Salat (prayer) and claims to be a Muslim.''
Riyad-us-Saliheen – Hadith No : 689

turning point or starting point?
Ok, a bit confused here..
Since I've messed up my life lately,I 'think' (Not really just thinking but still looking for strength to act upon the 'thought') I need to do something.
Err..Should I turn around or start from the very beginning?
Both things has a broad term to be defined and elaborated.
Hmmm..no need to respond to this 'self mumbling' post..

Swallow though it's bitter.
Asalamu'alaikum..
Alhamdulillah praise be to Allah since I've managed to finish off reading cover to cover a book entitle "Human Rights and Racial Discrimination in Islam" written by Prof.Abdul Aziz Al-Khayyaat (in Arabic)but it was translated into English by Khalifa Ezzat and Heather Shaw.Oh,I read the Engish version..hehehe. (My Arabic is rusted-and-decayed)
I Just want to highlight short comments/summary about this book (the whole contents) from my two cents point of view;
The way the topic being presented and discussed are absolutely amazing.Easy to follow and the language/words being used are simple and understandable.I would give 7/10 for it. (hahaha..since when we're in a competition and being graded?)
However as a 'layman' I found out that the author unable to put a convincing facts though there are actually lots of evidence inside the book.- not convincing enough.
Apart from that,the issues arose and discussed are outdated and no longer acceptable.
I'm not under estimate the author's personal judgement on the issues but honestly I could see that he is not judging fairly and there are sort of imbalance judgement and evident.
For an example,the author keeps on highlighting the issue of 'apartheid' which was practiced by the people in the USA in the late 70s.He keeps on saying that it's still being practiced in the US Government,school,law court and etc.Eventually,as I've been 'reading a lot' I could say that the 'apartheid' is no longer being practiced 'legally' by the USA.If there are any,you can't blame and conclude it as a whole Americans' practice since it's only a 'personal/individual' matter.If not,how come Barrack Obama (the American Black) could simply elected and becoming the USA President?
Besides,the author proudly and confidently stated that we (The people of the world)need to look at the middle east where the countries there are the examples and role model of practicing 'free racial discrimination'.
He stated that Arab's countries never discriminate whether in their government or by personal practice.
Wow,I doubt that.I have a lot of Arab friends and we had discussed this topic before and it's totally contradicted with the author's statements.
One of my friends is a Yemeni but he's living in Saudi since he was a small kid.He has little brothers and sisters who were born in Saudi but all of them are denied their rights and services as they are not 'Saudis'. They couldn't enroll into public university or even receiving treatment in the public hospital.Why?They are Arab but not Saudis.Isn't that 'racial discrimination'?
The author even somehow moving slightly away from the topic where he stressed that Arab women are encourage to pursue their studies in college and university. (He's showing evident that women are never being oppressed in Arab.However,this is not a 'racial' issues but a 'gender ism' issues.)
I wonder why is that women in Arab countries having no right to drive a car then?
Over all,'ok la'..
As a 'layman' I could obviously see the injustice judgement and evident inside the book.
Since all of us know that 'American is our enemy' (as what 'they said' and been perpetuated.As for me,it is not)it is not a good and brilliant ideas to punish them by giving injustice judgement and at the same time proudly picturing good images of the Arabs. (I guess it's vice versa)
*As a professor,the author need to tell the truth though it's bitter for the Muslim world to swallow it rather than hiding the factual things. ('Berpijaklah di bumi yg nyata')..
Wallahu'alam..

I dunno why..
I don't know why,but honestly I've changed..
I'm not the same person 6 years ago.Or even 2 years back.
I used to be 'serious' all the time and seldom making jokes with my friends,but not anymore.
I wonder if this is who I am right now,I won't be themost charming school prefect when I was in the high school. (sounds like I'm useless now..Indeed maybe?)
I have no idea and strength to talk something related to 'tarbiyyah' or anything islamic although I used to do so.Hmmm...
I'm happy with with what I do right now??I have no answer for that.
I'm still looking for my identity and it reallysucks tough.
O Allah please guide me.Show me the way out..

*Hahaha.The cartoon was signed "2008",unfortunately the artist didn't realized that UPSR has 5 subjects.Unless it was back in the 90s where UPSR only had 4 subjects.
* Why those who scored straight As (especially Malaysians specifically Malays choose to be a Doctor instead of other professions?)
Explaining the whole picture.
Assalamu'alaikum.
Whola! it has been a while after my last post before I've decided to write something today..Enjoying my 'space' lately..hahaha.(Stop stalking on me)
I'm asking myself (if you want to respond to this question,go ahead to the comment section at the bottom of this entry) is it the doctor responsibility to explain the medicine (side effects and etc.) before prescribe it to the patient or it's our duty to ask the doctor?
I'm not really sure how far doctors are telling the truth when it comes to medical issues.(no offense)
For instance,doctor should explain the whole picture of the disease he diagnosed and give options to the patient (if any), and that does not being practiced by all physician.
Other scenario like medicine which have 'steroid' should be informed to patient since not all people accepting steroid (if there is other options of medicine instead of the steroid one).
There was a real situation where a patient asking a doctor about the side effects from prescribing a cholesterol pills and the doctor simply said nothing.As a 'layman' the patient turned out to be unsatisfied and look out the answer (the side effects actually) himself through his readings from internet,journals and medical articles.
At the end,he discovered that there are some side effects when taking those pills. (I'm not sure what it is but there are side effects)
The question here,is it our (layman/patient) duty to ask the doctor (even though doctors might not telling the truth and it made me so sad n doubtful to rely on them) or it is the doctor's responsibility to explain the whole picture to the patient?
*Those doctors out there who read this,please don't take it personal.No offense at all.It just a matter of question,doubtful,and confuse of a layman like me.

Inspire
People might be inspired from others' life experience whether by reading from a book,listening or any kind of sources.
I'm not sure whether you are a good listener or a book reader since different people are having different types of characteristic.As for me,I love reading and listen to others and they really inspired me.
As a human being,we really need something to drive ourselves to achieve our dreams and aims.For instance,the history (seerah) of the Prophet Muhammad and his disciples is somehow our drive to be a better Muslim.
So people,let us take something as our drive in every aspect of our life.
*Btw, I love listening to my aunt and uncle's stories when they were in the Washington and Texas (USA) pursuing their studies.Though it was late in the 80s,the stories are still fresh and inspiring.

When it comes to football...
I'm not a footballer.
Not either a football fan.
I do enjoy watching football
But never being so fanatic like a moron.
Never forcing myself to wake up early in the morning/midnight just for a football match.It's a crazy and stupid thing to do.(sorry for those who used to do so).
People cheering like a hell.
All those bad words being yelled
Make me headache and jump into a well.
*Just watching Malaysia vs Singapore.-sad ending..hahaha.But need to reserve the tears for Palestine.

Teaching..
Assalamu'alaikum..
First of all,please 'don't care' a.k.a ignore on my grammatical errors since I haven't write anything for a long time.In fact I'm writing this spontaneously and I'm not that diligent to do all those checking and proof read. (another not so good thing about me)
Alhamdulillah being a part time English teacher for form 5 students really gives me a headache.Headache in the sense of entertaining all those things which are actually 'out of the scope of a teacher'.Yes I mean it..
But I'm trying to adapt it and serving the 'nation' with my best.Well even though we're not a teacher,we're actually a 'teacher' to the ummah.Guiding people to the path of Allah.
But insha Allah I'm not going to be a teacher (i mean a teacher to the school students)permanently.I have my own ambition to be achieved.Reach for the stars!!
Just to share some of the questions asked by the students to me:
- sir,sir ada FB tak?
- Sir, nak no telefon sir boleh?
- Sir,sir dah bertunang ke?
- Sir,saya tak mahu pi PLKN boleh ke?
- Sir,nanti kami PLKN 6 bulan.Boleh ke saya nak pi 3 bulan sahaja?
And it keeps on going on and on....
Even some of the students keep on calling me 'ustaz' which make me uncomfortable and worry with the 'title'..
Wallahu'alam..
*Maybe I should apply for a counselor's position.Settling students' personal affairs.hehehe
*A lil bit awkward for the 1st time being called 'sir'..

Anyone?
I'm a multi tasking type of guy.(really?)
So,while I was doing my research,I would sometimes watched movies.
I was eager watching The Lord of The Ring trilogy lately.Yeah I've watched them,yet still can't make me bored.I really loves the storyline and the imaginations.
Questions:
1)In the final episode i.e The Return of The King, Frodo and Gandalf were following the Elves by sailing together to.....??Where are they going?Is it a place for the immortality?
2)If they were going there,then why?Why Frodo need to follow them?If I'm not mistaken frodo was saying something like "my journey here to save the shire was over" to Sam and is he having another task to be solved?He belongs to the shire right?
Hahaha..saja ja menimbulkan isu-isu tak penting.Tengah serabut..Pala dah 'mereng'..
Anyone?sapa nak jawab?

Belief system.
Assalamu'alaikum
Just a short post I guess before I continue doing my research (looking at my watch,it's almost 2.00am-whenever I stuck with something,then I'll be writing something in my blog.Hmm..Oh,of course asking the way out from Allah is the priority)
Is it a must to convince someone to follow and accept what we believed in? Don't make me wrong.Of course we need to convince people to choose Islam as the way of life.
What I'm trying to say here is believing in something else.Like for instance our stand and etc.
Personally,I would say nope.What you believed would not necessarily believe by others.So,people should respect others believes.
Let say I believed in the term "Be who you are,do what you love and just believe in yourself"..People might not agree with my believe because they might look it from their angle perspective while I'm looking it from my understanding and knowledge.In fact our different background like family,cultures,how were we been raised up,etc. might influence our belief system.And of course we have our own limitations too.
We're living in a so called 'democracy' system.Thus each and every one of us are having their own right to posses the freedom of thinking,freedom of speech,freedom in self expression and etc.Avoiding others from acted freely and urging others to accept one's opinion and believe is totally nonsense.
It's like we are dis encouraging people from achieving what they are dreaming of.
Well,for some people or I might say most of the people might use their belief system as the motivational tools in boosting up their productivity,awareness,personality enhancement and etc.It depends on how we perceive and implement it.
Wallahu'alam.

lagenda jubah
Salam.
Rasanya sudah lama aku tak menulis dalam Bahasa Melayu,walhal ia adalah bahasa ibundaku.So,kali ini izinkan aku menulis dalam BM.(Maybe rojak la dengan few English words)
So,alkisahnya aku ada beberapa helai jubah.Kebanyakannya adalah hadiah daripada sahabat-sahabatku,Allahyarham 'Ammar Zul hadiahkan jubah Morocco warna putih suatu ketika dahulu waktu beliau menziarahiku di kampus.'Imran dengan jubah warna hitam ala-ala ekslusif.
Tapi bukan nak cerita pasal hadiah-hadiah jubah pun kat sini.
There was a time aku pakai jubah pi solat subuh kat masjid universiti. Kadang-kadang aku and member-member akan lepak breakfast lepas subuh kat warung-warung sekitar luar kampus.Bantai roti tampal la,roti kosong la,nasik lemak dan lain-lain.(tapi aku minum air suam ja.segala teh tarik,kopi and etc. tak elok untuk kesihatan.Gula banyak.Hahaha)
So,aku ni pi la makan pakai jubah.(Malas nak balik bilik salin.)Di takdirkan aku ja yang pakai jubah.Member lain biasa ja.I mean t-shirt,baju melayu dan bla bla bla.
Aku tak ingat macam mana kitorang bleh borak-borak baik punya dengan mak cik kedai tu.
Tiba-tiba aku tak ingat macam mana mak cik tu kata:
"Mak cik bukan apa,kalau mak cik nak cari calon untuk anak perempuan mak cik,mak cik tak mau yang pakai-pakai jubah ni.Depa ni buat-buat baik ja.Mak cik pun bukan nak percaya sangat kat orang-orang macam ni."
Aku ok je dengar opinion mak cik tu.After all she has the right to voice out her point.Tapi yang tiba-tiba member-member aku pakat usha and tenung aku ramai-ramai dan lama-lama tu apahal?Kurang asam betol!
Woi,mak cik tu tak refer kat aku ok! Dia buat general statement ja.
Aku ok and cool je.Tapi mak cik tu perasan yang member-member aku dok usha aku,mak cik tu terus kata:
"eh mak cik tak kata kat kamu.Mak cik cakap ni berdasarkan pengalaman mak cik,bapak mertua mak cik."
Kan aku dah cakap.Bukan aku la.. (hahaha.Walaupun aku pun ada cenderung ke arah kejahatan tu jugak.Astaghfirullah)
Sejak dari hari itu,bila aku nak pi breakfast dekat kedai mak cik itu,aku dah tak pakai jubah..(Eh,korang jangan salah paham.Aku bukan nak tackle anak mak cik tu pun dengan tak pakai jubah dan berharap mak cik tu accept aku sebagai menantu..Ye ke??..ce ce ce)
*Aku tidak membahasakan diriku sebagai 'aku' except dalam penulisan ini sahaja.Dengan member-member aku bantai 'ana' 'anta' Tapi kalau ramai aku tak guna antum aku guna korang..Hahaha
Maybe style membahsakan diri 'ana dan 'nta' ini dah terbawak-bawak dari zaman sekolah menengah dulu.Ada sekali tu aku jumpa junior-junior di sekolah menengah and aku 'tersasul' dengan berkata 'korang'.And suddenly kesemua hampir 10 orang di situ diam sepi seketika selama 10 saat.Dan tiba-tiba sorang junior aku ni repeat term yang aku guna tadi i.e. 'korang?' (baca dengan intonasi soalan/pertanyaan).
So aku pun macam la...adoi.!! korang ingat term korang ini teruk ke?Korang expect aku akan kata 'antum'?Aku dah biasa dengan term ni la sekarang ni walaupun dulu kat sekolah I used to say 'Antum'. (kata pengawas,kena la 'buat baik'.haha).Ke korang expect aku cakap arab dengan korang?
"Wa antum wa ana nahnu kurrasah.Rubbama hia takkul fi hamam nahnu tawakal ila hunak wa ulaq sawa wa patuk kaki,sakit tak tekira'.."
Ok,la..tu je kot aku nak tulis.
Segala yang baik tu bleh la diambil sebagai pengajaran dan yang buruk tu 'lempaq' jauh-jauh..
*FYI this post di tulis dalam masa 10 minit tanpa 'memadam' or buat major correction.Aku tak buat second reading lepas tulis.Memang post-post aku sebelum ni pun macam tu.Aku tulis,aku terus publish.So,surenya ada banyak salah n silap.(especially post in english.There were lot of mistakes regardless grammatical errors,error in using terms,spelling etc.).

crazy?
Assalamu'alaikum..
The submission date for our dissertation is about to come to an end.Yet most of us still struggling completing here and there,including me which I could describe my situation as " I'm in a deep shit".
It really drives me crazy thinking all of these things.
Even it distracted me into the class.I couldn't focus!
For instance in Construction Business's class, we were discussing about 'market' and each words my lecturer uttered,I couldn't stop myself from relating it with my research.
Let say the lecturer was telling us about the importance of identifying the aim and objectives of our Business in order to cater the market demand.And somehow from nowhere I started to think about my research aim and objectives.Were it tally with my literature review or not and etc.
And when my lecturer started to talk about surveying (demography,needs and etc.) on the society,ensuring the successfulness of the business,I was thinking about my research methodology.How,I'm going to conduct my case study,survey or interview.
As a result, at the end of the class,I jot nothing except the date and the course title on my A4 sheet notes.I could say I just absorbed less than 50% from the lecture delivered.- Very BAD!!
* Now,there'll be a studio trip to the northern part to visit the construction of the double lane of the train railway at Bukit Merah and also the construction of the second Penang Bridge. It would consume 4 days for the whole trip, started from 16th of March.- Guess what?I didn't plan to join it as my mind is still thinking of the dissertation.(Although I'm eager to join it as it would be my final studio trip.)
* A bit stress now and headache seems to happened frequently.
* Baru undergrad dissertation,belum master or PhD. (but it will never stop my spirit,Insha Allah!)
* Hope for your pray..

Lessons...
Salam'alaykum... (Usually, my Turkish friends will spell the word 'salam' like this.)
Couple of days ago when I was at the cafeteria, I stumbled on new Indonesian worker who is working with one of the food stalls' owner here.
He is a young boy and I guess he is around 20 years old.At a glance,he is just look like a normal guy but once he speaks,most of his words I could say 'a wisdom one'.
There was a time when he greet me, "Apa khabar?"
And I just replied "Khabar Baik." and I asked him back "Apa khabar?"
He replied "Alhamdulillah khabar baik".And suddenly he added, "Yang eloknya disebut alhamdulillah".
I was kinda "erk!".. (Oh malunya). But i take it as a compliment.Yeah,after all I need to be reminded no matter from who it is.
At one time, we met again and he asked me the same question. "Apa khabar?"
As I have learned something from him days before, so I answered 'confidently', "Alhamdulillah,khabar baik.Kamu?Sihat?"
"Alhamdulillah luarnya sihat,dalamnya tidak"..
Once again,I was amazed with his answer.I just give him a smile and didn't intended to prolong the conversation as he was on his duty.
Lessons:
*Sometimes Allah will sent for us someone who we didn't actually being thinking of to remind us.
*Accept and take as a compliment all reminders regardless from where it comes from.
*Etc.
Notes:
1)My Turkish friends keep on calling me,inviting me to their house.Sorry Agabeycim,I'm pretty busy down here. Tamam kendine iyi bak!.
2)I just realized that I have the talent of being a 'fashion consultant'.- (ada cerita di sebalik ini)

Meroyan...
Salam..
Meroyan?If I'm not mistaken this term is being used to describe a condition of a woman practically after giving birth where she is kinda acting weirdly.(Correct me if I'm wrong)
So,currently I'm 'suffering' such condition.Suddenly I felt like I need an extra time for vacation etc.Releasing my mind from struggling finishing my 'works'.And coming from nowhere the 'homesick' symptom penetrate into my heart hence making the 'meroyan' syndrome worst.
My lecturers used to say that sometimes,we need to appreciate ourselves by treating something after struggling-to-die studying and trying to complete our research.It's somehow a motivational psychology to boost up our spirit and courage to face the next problems.
For instance,one of my lecturer once spending a month travelling across the Japan while she was doing her PhD in Kyoto as an appreciation for herself being completed her PhD.Or after few presentations she would treat herself slices of expensive cakes or buying a new shirt etc.
Well,seems like I need such an appreciation too.(after I've completed my research Insya Allah).-Buying something/going somewhere to appreciate myself.Sounds weired?(Usually others will appreciate others like a couple;the man giving something to the girl in appreciating her achievement in something.But seems like couple is prohibited and yet I'M STILL SINGLE,hence I need to appreciate it on my own.)
Suddenly,I've been dreaming to cycle around The Isle of Cumbrae in Scotland.Hahaha..What a nonsense!
(One day Insya Allah)

The Millport.The main settlement in this 1168 hectares island.Subhanallah..
Come on!! Let us cycle around the island!
Subhanallah.. Nak pergi nak pergi!! (Sambil berlari-lari setempat)
The 18km cycling around the island Insha Allah would not cause tiredness as we could enjoy the beautiful scenery.
The Isle of Cumbrae.
Anybody wanna follow me??

my latest reading material
My latest reading material, A 3rd serving of Chicken Soup for the Soul. (354 pages)
#1 New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Authors: Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen
Bought it last Thursday in front of the univ. library.There were bunches of books which really sparks my interest but I couldn't get it all due to 'financial constraint'.(Even this one I bought it using my part time working allowance.)
-Just going half (not half actually.A quarter maybe) through of this book.No words to describe it; good!
*Let us instill in ourselves the reading habit. I love reading! - It helps you increase your knowledge and kick you off from ignorance.. (I think I inherited this habit from my mom and dad..Betulkah?)
single...
pic via: emeylovalova
*I like this description on single..As a matter of fact,I like and prefer to be a single.(Oh no,this is not a say-no-to-marriage campaign.).- so, I dedicated this 'word of wisdom' to my eldest bro, Bang Chaq and some of my friends who keep on teasing and insist me to marry at my 'young age'.Letting all of you know that I preferred single!
*Oh boy, the campus election is just about to come.When?I'm not sure.Tomorrow maybe.And out of sudden people from 'nowhere' started knocking door to door promoting their constituency representatives.Bla bla bla..Sorry dudes if I was making a 'pork face' while you were trying to promote your manifestos.I'm not really 'into these sort of things'..In fact you were taking my time listening to your 'sweet dishes'.Sorry fellas.Just wishing all of you the best.
- Don't ever instructing me how to elect.Bro, you need to do this n this.Oh don't forget to bring along your matric card etc..-At the end of his instruction: "Emm.1st year student?"
"Hah?no I'm not.I'm 4th year." (I knew it! I've been looking so young all the time! hehe)(3 years I've been electing and I know how the system works ok!)
*By the way there will be no election at my faculty this session as the representatives won uncontested.
Anyhow,hoping those who are striving to promote and implement the Islamic issues winning this coming election.Wallahu'alam.

workload...
Salam..
Alhamdulillah,the pre-graduation dinner and appreciation night has ended last night.Insha Allah I'll try to make a special post on it later on.(and uploading few pictures).Overall,it was just nice.
Just received another work from my lecturer.Proposing a new/enhancing parking lot at our faculty as the current parking lots are cramp with cars especially students' cars.16 of us will be doing this job.We need to analyze,doing value management (conducting value management workshop) and later on design + make a cost plan + consulting with authority (electrical works,drainage/piping etc) for the proposed parking lot.(Need to read and understand the Uniform Building By Laws,UBBL)
Insha Allah we'll gonna present it to the Dean of our Faculty end of this coming March.
The time allocated seems impossible to achieve the aim as we still working on with our individual final year research.Worst,the drawing given (plan) for the parking lot wasn't the right drawing.Initially we've been told that it's the 'as built drawing' but later, I was the one who realized that it wasn't the 'as built drawing'.I managed to talk to the lecturer to clarify few things.Guess what?We need to re-measure the whole area and plot it as what it should be.(Using the GIS).
Seems like my workloads are getting heavier from time to time. (I thought it should be vice versa as I'm about 'approaching' my ending year)
Aaaahh..Those eyes 're looking at me signaling that I'm the one who should present the proposal to the Dean.Hmm..
My lecturer had already said that she is expecting a good presentation i.e. within the time frame,compact yet informative and being able to convince the 'client' i.e the dean to accept the proposal.Manage to be distracted during the presentation as lot of questions will be thrown out and need to be answered based on facts and concrete justifications.- In other words,well prepared.It's kinda 'viva' for Master/PhD students..
Praying and hoping that everything will be going smoothly and blessed by Allah.
Trying to reschedule my time... (berpinar-pinar kepala)
*There is a wired feeling coming in to me as I'm about to finish off my studies.- I want to change course.Why I'm taking this faculty,I shouldn't be at this faculty at the first place etc.Argghh!!!-It kills my mood
Wallahu'alam...

Alhamdulillah,the pre-graduation dinner and appreciation night has ended last night.Insha Allah I'll try to make a special post on it later on.(and uploading few pictures).Overall,it was just nice.

Dr.Abu Ameenah Bilal Philips
Assalamu'alaikum..
Have you ever heard about this Muslim's scholar?
Alhamdulillah he is currently in IIUM for a serial talk.Dr.Bilal Philips was born in Jamaica and soon being raised up in Canada.He was a Christian,communist and even an atheist before later he reverted to Islam.He was the founder and dean of the Islamic Online University which is based in Doha,Qatar.He is actively participate in doing Da'wah through out the world. He received his B.A. degree from the Islamic University of Madinah and his M.A. in Aqeedah (Islamic Theology) from the King Saud University in Riyadh, then to the University of Wales, UK, where he completed a PhD in Islamic Theology in the early 90’s. (To know more on his background,please google it out)
Weeks before, as I noticed the poster of this talk,what comes to my mind was "I want to attend it".However, as I was quite busy,hence I had no time to register and confirm my attendance at the registration booth.Days later,I found out that it's already full and I was quite disappointed as I would be missed this talk.
Alhamdulillah, the organizer managed to change the venue due to the number of students who still requesting for seats for the talk and I was among the fortunate to get myself into it.
The first talk,syeikh Bilal shared with us his experience in doing Da'wah to the USA military units.This talk entitled 'Behind the Enemy Lines: Defending Islam'.His speech,way of presenting the topic and the gist were totally awesome.
His 2nd talk was delivered right after the Fajr prayer today.Entitled "The 7 groups of people under the shade of Allah" really touching my heart.This 7 groups of people is based on the Hadith tawatir i.e. being narrated by many sahabats.(The most authentic hadith)
Tonight there will be his 3rd talk but seems like I couldn't attend it as I'll be attending my pre-graduation dinner at a hotel in Kuala Lumpur.(It's actually kind of conflict of interests.I really hope to participate all of his lectures.I really mean it)
Insha Allah,his final lecture (for this time being) would be tomorrow morning after Fajr prayer.
I love listening and gaining knowledge from public lectures especially those in English as it will polish my Language skills.Moreover,if that lectures are related to Islamic studies and being delivered by Muslim scholars around the world,it really drives my interest to attend it.Interesting to learn from different school of thought,cultures etc.
So,just reminding myself and my fellow readers,make ourselves free and available attending such lectures.(As most of us are lazy in reading,at least such lectures could cover up few things from that readings)
Hope to meet other Muslim scholars like Yusuf Hamza,Khalid Yasin etc.
Wallahu'alam..
*Language is such an important thing especially in doing Da'wah.- The way you addressing the people/audiences and presenting the idea is really a major aspects in convincing and influencing the people.
I still remember there was a Somalian syeikh who delivered the Friday Sermon few months ago at the Univ. Masjid.His Arabic was superb.Even some of my friends who have a 'little knowledge' in Arabic could spotted his unique Arabic.Subhanallah.
May Allah guide us and put us among HIS obedient servants.Ameenn..

the heart/ intention is the matter...
عن أمـيـر المؤمنـين أبي حـفص عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه ، قال : سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عـليه وسلم يـقـول:
( إنـما الأعـمـال بالنيات وإنـمـا لكـل امـرئ ما نـوى . فمن كـانت هجرته إلى الله ورسولـه فهجرتـه إلى الله ورسـوله ومن كانت هجرته لـدنيا يصـيبها أو امرأة ينكحها فهجرته إلى ما هاجر إليه ).
رواه إمام المحد ثين أبـو عـبـد الله محمد بن إسماعـيل بن ابراهـيـم بن المغـيره بن بـرد زبه البخاري الجعـفي،[رقم:1] وابـو الحسـيـن مسلم بن الحجاج بن مـسلم القـشـيري الـنيسـابـوري [رقم :1907] رضي الله عنهما في صحيحيهما اللذين هما أصح الكتب المصنفه.
On the authority of Ameer ul-Mu'mineen (the Commander of the Faithful), Aboo Hafs `Umar ibn al-Khattaab radiAllaahu anhu, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam say:
| "Actions are but by intentions and every man shall have only that which he intended. Thus he whose migration (Hijrah to Madeenah from Makkah) was for Allaah and His Messenger, his migration was for Allaah and His Messenger, and he whose migration was to achieve some worldly benefit or to take some woman in marriage, his migration was for that for which he migrated." |
I'm all round !!

C: Why not NJ?
A,B & C: Hey NJ,why not you represent our batch and perform at the upcoming dinner?
