Salaam'alaykum...

When I was in secondary 4, I learned in Tauheed that Syaitan is a type of Jinn. Bad Jinn, I mean. For there are "good" jinns and bad ones. Or rather, the muslim and the kafeer ones. However, I was taught though that no matter how "good" the muslim jinn is, the worst of human beings is similar to that the best of jinns. Wallahu 'alam.

So as my father was driving past the Changi Village chalet, the one which we once had gone to, Kak Ngah pointed out to Mas abt its presence. Then my mother added that we won't be going there again since it is haunted.


Mas: What is 'haunted?'
Kak Lang (me): Ask Kak Ngah.
Kak Ngah: Ask Kak Long.
Kak Long: OYy!!
Abah: Kak long kan ade
www.kaklong.com.

(k Abah ni sempat jek.)

Mas: Kak long~!! What is 'haunted'?
Kak Long: 'Haunted' means a place which has a lot of syaitan.
Ummi: Dia tak paham syaitan lah. Dia paham jinn.
Kak Long: Ok. 'Haunted' means a place which has a lot of jinn.
Ummi: Bad jinn.
Mas: Ohh...

Since she has understood, I decided to add..

Kak Lang: Jinn ada 2 types tau Mas. Good jinn and bad jinn.
Kak Long: yeah.. Muslim jinn is the good one.
Kak Lang: Muslim jinn but still naughty.
Kak Ngah: Macam Mastura- muslim but still naughty, kan?

(lol. apa punya kakak. same kan adik dengan jinn. hah!)
tapi betul jgk uh..haha =P

- Expectations of the Mercy of Allah (SWT) -

There once lived a pious man who was enslaved to a wicked master. The righteous slave wanted to teach his master a lesson that he would not forget, a lesson that would make him change his ways.

The Master told him one day to plant wheat. The slave took the opportunity. He went and collected seeds of barley and planted them. As the season drew near, the master was enraged to see that after all this work and time the slave had planted the wrong seed. In his thrashing rage, he scolded the slave saying, "Why did you do this?"

The righteous slave said, "I had hope that the barley seeds would come out as wheat."

The Master said, "How can you plant barley seeds and expect it to come out as wheat?"

The slave stopped and said quietly, "How can you disobey Allah and expect for His bounteous mercy? How can you openly challenge his Deen and hope for Jannah."

The Master was stunned and silent. He understood. "You have taught me something today that I had never realized. You are free for the sake of Allah."

Salaam'alaykum...


Alas, this blogger is okizayyy. Praises to Him.

These few days, I've been hooked to Native Deen's great advices. It is a wonder how I came to love those songs- for I am so not a hiphop lover. But I guess, it is the message that counts. =)
So last week was a really tough week for me; the tuition lessons and all. I've never reached home as late as 11pm for such a loooooooooong time, since my lessons at MKS. hmm.. k sedih.
I guess it was all worthwhile though. I pray for the best for my tutees.

Hmm.. I think I'm starting to get hooked to AMK. (hah. ni klw fadhil bace, mesti roll eyes.) Firstly, cuz there's a mosque. Secondly, the library's cool. Thirdly, somehow AMK has some connections with Edward de Bono's Six Thinking Hats and lastly, there's 86 which could directly bring me there. heE~. alhamdu Lillah.

Oh I'd like to share Sakina from Native Deen. You should listen to it. Or rather, READ it. heh.
May we benefit from it. =)

Artist: Native Deen
Album: Deen You Know
Title: Sakina

Coming home in the evening, each day much on my mind
Fast pace of living in the West, with such little time
Cars and folks yell at me, everybody making me spin
We know we gotta' have patience, so we hold it within
Stress, doctors say it makes a brother sick and I know this is true
So I call out to my Lord each day to please help me through
Then when I come and I see my daughter's face so bright
With smiles there to great me at the door, like a beautiful light
I can only thank Allah for this blessing on me
For giving me Sakina, this tranquility!

When Allah sends His Sakina on me, how do I feel?
It's like peace inside my heart and I know that it's real
When Allah sends His Sakina on me, how do I feel?
It's like peace inside my heart and I know that it's real

Allah knows that people in the past had it harder than me
Allah saw the evil hearted men with no mercy
Allah felt the hearts of the Muslims as they came near
Allah sent His tranquility and they lost all their fear
Cause Allah says if you trust Him and you truly have faith
Allah sends His Sakina and He showers His grace
How? Maybe as a peaceful rest, a long needed sleep
How? Maybe as a cloud up high with shade from the heat
How? Maybe as a loving wife that gives you her light
How? Maybe as your daughter with her smile so bright

When Allah sends His Sakina on me, how do I feel?
It's like peace inside my heart and I know that it's real
When Allah sends His Sakina on me, how do I feel?
It's like peace inside my heart and I know that it's real.

ps: I miss Ust. Sakinah....And all of my mates. ALL of them. May Allah bless. Wassalaam. =)

Don't trouble trouble
till trouble troubles you,
cause it only doubles trouble
and troubles others too.

Ummah Films- The Parent Negotiations




Ummah Films

"Once you find the person to marry, then you notify your parents. Sometimes, there is drama involved, sometimes there isn't. This video is about all the back and forth negotiations one goes through when dealing with their parents about marriage. Its usually an issue when the parents and their kids have completely different views of marriage. I think many young people who are going through the process can totally relate to this video."


Witty yet very very true and educational. Not that I am in a hurry to carry out the Rasool's sunnah (erk.heh), it's just that I'd love to share this wonderful and sensical video with others. Hope we benefit a lot from it. =)

Salaam'alaykum...



The last week of April has been very hectic for me. Well, at least I got to know how it feels like to be a teacher. heh. yeah..Like what my cousin and her colleague said,

"The whole process is fun..Teaching. But when it comes to marking...."

Heh. Both stopped mid-way and shook their heads. I understand now. =)

Alhamdu lillah I managed to finish up my job..and well, I enjoyed it despite the fatigue which is still bothering me at this very moment. And I got a reward by Cousin. Oh my...how shocked I was upon receiving it. I didn't expect my 'pay' to be that...rewarding. And still she said my 'pay' wasn't comparable to the "well done effort and help" I contributed. Dear me. I was ecstatic (praises to ALLAH) and yes, I've been wanting to own one so much. Thanks, dear cousin.

Alhamdu lillah...terlalu banyak nikmat yg diberikan..tapi terlalu sedikit kalimah syukur yg diucapkan....=(

What a despicable servant I am. I seek Your Forgiveness, O Rahman.
Subhanallah, wal hamdu lillah wa Laa ilaaha illallah wallahu Akbar...

p/s: I'm sorry for not updating frequently. Insya Allah if I've time, i will do so.
May Allah bless y'all. =)
