Berkongsi ilmu

I must write this down before I forget. Where should I write this? Well, the blog is a good place, it's not only for me but also for anybody who reads it. May those who read this will benefit from it. I was getting ready to the office when I turned on the TV. It was Ustaz Zahazan on the TV together with Mr Fetri Yahya for the MHI Friday slot. They were discussing about the husband-wife realtionship and family ties. It was a very good topic indeed as it involves us all, you and me. I am not able to tell all, but there are few things that triggered me: 1. A wife is complaining about her husband. She claims that it is almost like she is the one who supports the family alone. Ustaz's answered: Ada riwayat yang mengatakan, seorang isteri yang memenuhi kelemahan suami, diakhirat kelak dia akan berlumba-lumba untuk masuk ke syurga bersama Rasulallah. Subhanallah. The support may not only be financial but also in educating the children. But, the husbands should never let the

Cameron Highlands Late 2009

This is an almost expired entry. I'm putting it in now because this time, I'm entering the post through my netbook which has all the photos taken on many occassions. Earlier, my entry was keyed-in from the office (normally lunch time or after working hours tau!). No photos there. It was during one long weekend that abah suddenly felt like having a family outing to Cameron Highland. We've been to Cameron Highland four times in the last 2 years. We just came back from Penang (for the company's family day) and Port Dickson (- at our favorite spot - the Avillion) but we still tagged along (we like to go there, anyway). It's a triple joy for the kids (apa taknya, tiap-tiap minggu jalan ). Only Ri did not managed to come along. All four families agreed to go. Our family from Shah Alam, Fifah from Bukit Jalil, two more cars (Cali's and Nan's) from Sungai Petani. Reservation has been made at an apartment (forgot the name) by Farah prior to the journey. It was a wind

What Have I done?

Which of these is your dream cabinet? Or perhaps you already own one ... It's difficult for me to tell, all designs tempts me. We (Hazirah and I) were talking about kitchen cabinet designs, cooking etc. when suddenly Hazirah said, "Nanti Atikah nak buat dapur yang besar dan cantik kat rumah Atikah, nanti boleh la ibu masak kat situ. Ibu mesti suka". FYI, Hazirah and Atikah is the same person as her full name is Nur Hazirah Atikah. My reply, "Eh! Apa pulak. Atikah la masak untuk ibu!". "Tapi bila tok mai, tok yang selalu masak untuk ibu. nanti bila ibu datang rumah Atikah, ibu la masak untuk Atikah pulak", was her reply. Kuang! Kuang! Kuang...! [ the sound effect] Then I realized ...O Oh...... I've set a bad example. I must quickly redo the situation. But ..... i LOVE my mother's cooking!!!!!

Jom Baca Quran!

Hmmm ..... siapa yang baca Quran semalam? Tanyak Ustaz Ravi. Dbuk!!! ....... Terduduk dengan pertanyaan itu, kebetulan semalam aku tidak berkesempatan mengulit Kitab Allah itu. "Tiga perkara yang paling mudah dilakukan dan akan dapat pahala .....ialah melihat ayat al-Quran, melihat Kaabah dan melihat wajah ibu", terang Ustaz Ravi lagi. Very simple. Full stop. Nak tengok kaabah daily, not in our capability ...... nak tengok wajah ibu setiap hari .... also not possible ... what other choice that is easiest to implement? ............ TENGOK AYAT ALLAH!! even though it sound so simple, but we normally neglect it. Allah al-Karim, He wants to reward us in so many ways, easiest way possible, but we still deny it. Is it wrong if you are called 'snobbish'? Answer it yourself. When someone give us a thing (anything), we would take it, and we would say, "tak nak kecikkan hati pemberi". But now, when Allah wanted to give us something (the reward), we rejected. it What

Cinta

Cinta .... Love - is the English translation while Mahabbah - is the Arabic translation. Don't worry, I'm not going to start a language class here, but, that's just for the introduction. For love, people are willing to do anything. For love, people are willing to sacrifice. Levels of sacrifices depends on the level of your love. But again, the sacrifices have to be something that is lawful not sinful, and tolerable. Agree with me? You must be!!! But there are times when you do something not out love but because YOU HAVE TO. When you do it because 'you have to', you'll not find the sweetness in it but instead, you're dragging your physical and soul into fulfilling it. Simple analogy, do you like your occupation now? If you do, you'll wake up in the morning eager to go to the office, planning your day. If you hate it, you'll drag yourself into the washroom, get ready to the office lazily, and will not be bothered even if you're late. Enough the

I Will Miss YOU!

Ahhh .... I will miss you .... Missing you already .... Till we meet again ..... Could not wait to be together again. All are synonym phrases that were normally uttered by two persons who are in love. So, do I use the phrase correctly? I think I do. To me, MISS here does not necessarily be a PERSON, it could also be a THING. You heard people saying that they missed their hometown, they missed their mother's cooking, they missed their favourite 'pillow', ehem .... So, I guess it's not wrong for me to use the phrase 'I Miss You' to my own sweet house ..... Yes, I will Miss the house, Already Missing it and Hope to be Reunited with it again. Where has my house gone???????? Well, it still stood steadily there, it's just us (the family) has moved out of it temporarily. The house is in some renovation ... opppsss .... extension. No major structures affected, only extending the kitchen, dining and the rooms a little bit. Even if it is only a little bit, but we
