SINOPSIS :

“Fira, sayang, nenek harap sangat nenek dapat tengok kamu dan Izzat berkahwin sebelum ajal nenek tiba.”

Permintaan nenek angkat Musfira Azwany membuatkan gadis itu dalam dilema. Antara permintaan Nenek Rogayah yang sedang tenat dan perasaan cintanya kepada Fizwan, mana satu lagi penting? Akhirnya, Musfira Azwany mengambil keputusan untuk berkahwin dengan Izzat Haikal, cucu Nenek Rogayah. Pun begitu, dia menganggap diri bukan isteri kepada Izzat. Hanya teman serumah lelaki itu. Hubungan cintanya dengan Fizwan terus terjalin.

“Izz, you know very well that you should not have any feeling towards me, right? We are friend. Good friend. Close friend. That’s it. Nothing more and nothing less.”

Mereka hanya kawan. Itu kata Musfira Azwany. Bagaimana pula dengan Izzat Haikal? Adakah lelaki itu turut menganggapnya sebagai kawan, teman serumah?

“Dah jatuh cinta dengan aku ke?”

Ops! Adakah Musfira Azwany mula jatuh cinta kepada Izzat? Apa terjadi pada hubungan cintanya dengan Fizwan? Tapi…

“Please, Izz. Aku tahu kau baik. But for once, fikirlah pasal diri kau. Kahwinlah dengan orang yang kau cintai, Izz. Lepaskan aku. Antara kita tiada jodoh. Kahwinlah dengan Izyan jika dia mampu buat kau bahagia.”
“Kalau itu keputusan kau, aku respect. Aku akan lepaskan kau.”

Apakah yang bakal terjadi? Adakah mereka akan bercerai atau mengekalkan hubungan yang sedia ada? Apakah mungki perasaan cinta mula bertamu di hati sekalipun hubungan yang ada hanyalah teman serumah?

Coretan mama :

MAMA SANGAT SUKA NOVEL NI! Penceritaan yang begitu sempoi dan kelakar. Kadang-kadang bila membaca, tiba-tiba aje boleh tergelak sampai mengeluarkan bunyi-bunyian dan terus menarik perhatian insan-insan di sekelilingku. Tapi sebab mama ni kan jiwa rapuh, confirmed ada part part yang mengalirkan si airmata. Ada gak part yang tersedu. Tapi itu, mamalah ye. Korang kalau baca, mungkin takat sedih je kot, wallahualam. Kalau nak tahu, sila baca sendiri.

Watak yang paling mama suka dalam novel ni ialah Makcik Sarimah! Memang terbaek dari ladang! Hahahahaha.....

AWAK SUKA SAYA TAK?

2012-01-30T15:37:00.000+08:00

SINOPSIS :

Kisah kasih sayang di antara Hilman Yong, kacukan Korea-Amerika-Cina dan Intan Zulaikha. Mereka sangat berbeza tetapi kerana perbezaan itulah mereka berjodoh. Namun, apakah kesudahan jodoh mereka apabila Hilman Yong, seorang yang baru mengenali Islam lebih mencintai Islam daripada Intan Zulaikha yang sememangnya dilahirkan Islam dari keturunan akibat perselisihan faham dan ego?

Muncul pula Damien Yong yang sentiasa menyesakkan dada Intan Zulaikha dengan aksinya yang daring, seksi, nakal dan menggoda. Intan terpaksa bersabar dengan Damien semata-mata untuk mendapatkan semula Hilmannya...seorang hamba Allah yang penuh kesabaran dan kesopanan.

Hilmanku...sifuku...kekasihku. Kembalilah...

"Saya tak pernah tinggalkan awak walaupun awak jauh, saya dapat melihat awak. Walaupun awak jauh, saya dapat merasa kehadiran awak. Walaupun awak jauh, saya dapat mendengar awak. Saya sentiasa di sisi awak. Awak sentiasa di sisi saya, di sini..." Hilman Yong.

"Don't worry, I won't kiss you. Saya tak cium sembarangan gadis. Saya tak ada selera dengan gadis biadap dan sombong seperti awak. Cik Zulaikha... saya nampak kehampaan di wajah awak. You really want me to kiss you? I can feel it. I can see it. From your eyes... your lips. Tetapi seperti saya cakap tadi, saya tak ada selera dengan orang biadab. Ciuman saya tidak semurah itu. Hanya untuk gadis yang bertuah dan terpilih saja." Damien Yong.

"Saya akui saya gembira bersama Mr Damien. Saya tak boleh menyembunyikan perasan saya tetapi perasaan saya terhadap Mr Damien sepertimana kita bersentuhan di malam itu. Boleh saling melihat, saling bersentuh, saling bercium...tetapi hanya di dinding kaca. Ada batas dan sekatan yang tidak boleh dipecahkan... walaupun cuba dipecahkan pasti kita akan cedera, ditusuk atau dihiris. Itulah Islam. Yang menjaga maruah dan kesucian sesuatu hubungan. Hanya hubungan halal yang boleh melenyapkannya." Intan Zulaikha.

Celoteh mama...

Jalan cerita dalam novel ini berkisar tentang halangan di dalam percintaan yang terpaksa dilalui oleh dua pasangan bercinta. Yang membezakan ASST ini dengan novel-novel lain yang pernah mama baca ialah selain dari hanya cerita, Melur Jelita banyak menyelitkan unsur-unsur keagamaan dan juga ilmiah. Itu yang mama suka. Cuma mama sesak nafas sikit sebab banyak sangat rintangan yang harus ditempuhi oleh mereka. Letih omak! Hehehe... Apa-apa pun, thumbs up buat Melur Jelita kerana cerita yang bernas. All the best in your next book ya. I'll be right here waiting... :D

KASIH BENAR KASIH

MEREKA tak saling kenal tapi disuruh berkenal-kenalan. Hanya berkenalan, jika sesuai boleh terus melangkah, jika tidak, tarik saja diri. Lalu, masing-masing mencuba dengan alasan,

‘Dia kosong, aku pun kosong.’

Pertama kali bersua muka, si dara terasa jengkel, sedangkan si bujang hanya bersikap ala-ala lelaki tak berperasaan. Sudahnya, seorang ke utara dan seorang ke selatan. Hati mereka tak bertemu di titik yang sama. Hanya antara mereka berdua, masing-masing tak pernah mengatakan ‘tidak’ sehingga banyak pihak menyangka diam itu tanda setuju.

Sampai masa, mereka benar-benar tak mampu berkata ‘tidak’ bila melihat wajah-wajah penuh harap. Saat sedar mereka tak mungkin berpaling lagi, cubaan demi cubaan dilakukan untuk menembusi hati masing-masing. Paling penting, mereka tak dilabel sebagai pasangan kahwin paksa, tapi kahwin atas tiket suka sama suka. Orang tua hanya talian hayat semata-mata.

Ketika sedar ada sesuatu berdetak tiap kali mata bertentang mata, muncul Syirin menagih janji lama. Sudahnya, janji baru terpaksa Dinzley mungkir walaupun Annura sudah ternampak bayang-bayang pelamin nan indah.

My 2 cents :

Secara jujurnya, mama tak berapa suka dengan Annura dalam cerita ini. Rasanya sebab mama ni total opposite of Annura. Stress juga mama nak habiskan cerita ni... rasa marah kat Annura kerana menghukum Dinzley sampai begitu sekali. Tak takutkah Annura akan dosa-dosa dengan suaminya itu? Hadoiiii...tension omak!!!

Demi kasih sayang seorang anak pada ayahnya, Farah rela berpura-pura menjadi kekasih terbaharu Daniel Harith agar ayahnya tidak dipenjarakan oleh majikannya itu. Ini juga peluang keemasan yg digunakan oleh Daniel Harith, tokoh korporat muda yg terkenal dgn imej 'Romeo' utk melepaskan dirinya dari Munirah Samad. Dilema di hati Farah menajdi bertambah parah apabila impiannya utk membina mahligai bahagia bersama kekasihnya, Rizal menemui jalan buntu. Hanya Kau Yang Tahu akan dapat menyingkap semua rahsia yg seolah-olah memenjarakan Farah dlm penderitaan yg entah bila akan berakhir.

"Sebab itulah abang ambil kesempatan utk libatkan Farah dalam kemelut abang dengan Munirah, kerana abg tahu yang abag telah jatuh cinta pada Farah semasa pertama kali melihat Farah. Hati abg bagai berdetik bahawa abg sudah jumpa perempuan yg akan membahagiakan abg." ~Daniel Harith

Adakah sesuatu yg pahit telah berlaku dlm hidupnya sehingga dia membenci perempuan begitu sekali. Adakah dia mengahwini aku kerana mahu membalas dendamnya pada perempuan.~Farah

"Jgn terlalu yakin farah! Bila saya kata yg awak mesti tinggal kan Daniel, eloklah awak lakukan begitu. Farah tak tau yg Farah tu hanyalah sebagai teman Daniel utk berseronok seronok sahaja. Dia akan tinggalkan awak bila dia sudah jemu nanti. Saya hanya ingin menolong awak sahaja, Farah. ~ Munirah Samad

Kerana wang, kekadang manusia sanggup melakukan apa sahaja walaupun terpaksa melanggar prinsip kehidupan dan harga diri sehingga sanggup membelakangkan dosa dan pahala. Saya mendapat ilham ini utk mencoretkan kisah pahit manis kehidupan seorg gadis yg mementingkan kehormatan diri sebelum mengikat cinta lelaki bergelar suami.

Beliau telah menghasilkan tiga buah novel bercetak yang bertajuk "Baju Pengantin Mak Andam", "2x5" dan Iman Suraya bersama Kaki Novel Enterprise.

Sinopsis :

Aryana... dia tak pernah terfikir yang dia akan menjadi pembantu peribadi kepada lelaki yang menjengkelkan, berlagak bagus dan poyo (tapi boleh tahan kacak jugaklah). Tugas hakiki seorang pembantu peribadi tidaklah susah mana pun, tapi dia yg mendapat bos seperti Ilham Irfan: selalu buat dia pening kepala. Setiap langkah boss... kena turut. Setiap rentak boss... kena ikut. Semua kena "Yes, boss!"

Dan dia pun sama sekali tidak pernah menyangka yang hatinya akan terpaut pada lelaki itu dan seterusnya membuatkan dia sering terluka.

Ilham... dia perlukan Aryana untuk tolong cover line bila dia tiada di pejabat dan tolong pastikan setiap temu janji dia dengan semua 'teman tapi mesranya' itu tidak bertindih di antara satu sama lain. Sebabnya? Dia selalu lupa dengan girlfriend yang mana satu dia patut keluar. Kerja-kerja pejabat yang lain, Aryana yang bijak tu sudah tahu apa yang dia patut buat. Seronoknya hidup bila ada pembantu naif seperti Aryana yang tak pernah membantah. Cakaplah apa saja, Aryana pasti akan mengatakan, "Yes, boss!"

Dan bila Aryana tiada, hidup dia jadi tak keruan. Saat tersedar dia perlukan Aryana lebih daripada seorg boss yang memerlukan seorang pembantu peribadi, ada pula halangan yang menanti. Ah! masakan dia perlu mengalah kepada tauke kolam ikan keli tu!

My 2 cents :

Salah satu dari buku favourite mama...sebab mama suka baca tulisan Areila Sahimi.. hehe.. bias kan.. nak wat cemana, memang mama suka gaya tulisan Eila yang santai dan relaxing. Pas tu dia tak overdose. Hehe...

About the Author

There are more than seventy million copies of her books in print. She lives in South Carolina.

Sypnosis :

In Fern Michaels's extraordinary, inspiring New York Times bestseller, an overweight woman sets out to improve her life by losing fifty-five pounds -- and ends up changing much more than her dress size!

Rosie Gardener fell under the spell of handsome Kent Bliss, and not even her best friend Vickie could persuade her that her fiancé was a two-timing cad. Now it's her third wedding anniversary, and Rosie, fed up with Kent's mistreatment, realizes her estranged best friend was right. But the day after kicking Kent out and beginning a diet and exercise regime, Rosie experiences another life-changing event: she wins $302 million in the Wonderball lottery. Now with Kent lurking in the shadows to claim a share of her money, Rosie needs her friends more than ever. As she works out under the eye of sexy personal trainer Jack Silver, a stronger new Rosie emerges -- a woman who wants to learn to trust love once again. Can she keep her vow not to be stopped by Kent's bitterness and her own self-doubts and jump into life with a passion she didn't know she possessed?

My 2 cents :

Interesting story but then I got tired just by reading how Rosie was so determined to loose weight. She did all the workouts her trainer had asked her and even entered the yearly triathlon. She was running, cycling and swimming and yet I was the one panting! Hahahaha....

Did I shed any tear? Of course! The part when Rosie's housekeeper wanted to leave her to get married...

Sinopsis: (Ihsan Kaki Novel)

Pengembaraan Noorul ke alam yang serba baru bermula semenjak menjadi pembantu rumah di penthouse mewah seorang lelaki kacak bernama Harris Tan Sri Hamdan, yang cerewetnya mengalahkan nenek kebayan. Oleh kerana sifatnya yang cerewet itu, Noorul menggelar Harris Mr. F. Kenapa F, bukan G atau H? Kerana F itu adalah untuk ‘fussy’ atau di dalam bahasa Melayunya cerewet! Semua yang Noorul lakukan sentiasa mengundang tengkingan dan jelingan tajam Mr. F.

Daripada berbalas-balas nota berkaitan dengan kerja pada awalnya, entah bagaimana mereka boleh makan semeja. Semakin lama Noorul mengenali Mr. F semakin banyak pula sebab yang dia temui untuk mencintai lelaki itu.

Fitnah yang melanda menyebabkan Noorul dan Mr. F terpaksa dinikahkan. Gusarnya hati, Allah sahaja yang tahu kerana dia tidak pasti sama ada Mr. F boleh menerimanya sebagai isteri atau tidak. Noorul mula berteka-teki sendiri tentang siapa dalang di dalam penyebaran fitnah ini. Adakah angkara Asyraf, yang sememangnya berdendam dengan Noorul? Atau pun, musuh perniagaan Tan Sri Hamdan? Mampukah Noorul dan Mr. F melayari bahtera rumah tangga bersama? Bagaimana pula dengan Elisa yang sememangnya cintakan Mr. F? Apa pula yang akan terjadi apabila Nurina, bekas kekasih Mr. F pulang ke Malaysia untuk menagih kembali cinta daripada lelaki itu? Haikal pula, dapatkah menerima Noorul, orang yang dicintainya sebagai kakak ipar?

My 2 cents :

Cerita ni best. Tapi mak ai, tebalnya. Jenuh nak bagi habis cepat. Penat baca tapi tak leh berhenti, cam no? Tapi kan, mama rasa, ada overdose romantik sikit, sampai macam nak lemas pun ada... hehehehe...

Leleh tak mama? Mau tidak.. tapi tangisan gumbira.. cuba tengok mukasurat 556 dan 565... :D

Mengenai Penulis

Fatin Nabila dilahirkan pada 27 Februari 1980. Anak pertama daripada dua beradik ini merupakan anak jati Terengganu yang amat meminati bidang penulisan. Sejak sekolah rendah lagi Fatin sudah berjinak-jinak dalam bidang yang digemarinya ini. Begitupun, bekas pelajar Sekolah Menengah Merchang ini tidak pernah menyimpan hasrat untuk bergelar penulis kerana cita-citanya lebih menjurus pada bidang kewartawanan. Namun, percubaan ‘suka-suka’nya membuahkan hasil apabila cerpen pertamanya yang berjudul Meniti Titian Kasih disiarkan di dalam akhbar Bacaria sewaktu beliau berusia 17 tahun. Bermula dari situlah, Fatin mula aktif berkarya. Selain novel, Fatin juga aktif menghasilkan sajak, cerpen dan pelbagai genre lagi. Beliau berazam mahu menjadi seorang penulis yang disegani dan mampu mendekatkan dirinya dengan golongan pembaca melalui tulisan-tulisannya. Novel DAKAPAN RINDU, karya pertamanya bersama Alaf 21 diharapkan dapat memberi hiburan bermakna dan buah fikiran seadanya kepada mereka yang gemar membaca kisah-kisah percintaan.

Sinopsis

Pengantin perempuan lari? Zain Hakimi panasaran. Seseorang perlu menggantikan tempat Sofea demi maruah keluarga. Datin Adibah kalut mencari bakal menantu bidan terjunnya. Kala terpandang Ersalina Imani, hatinya terus terpaut. Gadis itu segera dilamar. Haliza menerima lamaran untuk anak gadisnya atas sebab tertentu. Juga demi menyelamatkan maruah keluarga. Ersalina terpaksa rela. Dia dinikahi Zain yang langsung tidak mencintainya. Namun, status isteri membuahkan kasih yang bukan sedikit.

Zain cuba menyemai cinta untuk si isteri. Apatah lagi Ersalina terlalu baik melayaninya. Lalu, kasihnya melimpah di hati. Kala berhasrat menyambut cinta Ersalina, isterinya disahkan mengandung. Sedangkan dia belum pernah menyentuh isterinya itu. Kepedihan ini amat dalam lukanya. Ersalina merelakan kemarahan dan amukan Zain. Bibirnya tetap tersenyum biarpun hati luka dilapah. Sewajarnya hukuman ini diterima kerana memang dia bersalah. Tekadnya untuk setia pada Zain takkan dicalar walau apa pun yang terjadi. Dia ingin setia hingga ke hujung nyawa.

My 2 cents :

Mama sukakan buku ni. Betul-betul salute di atas kesabaran wanita berumur 18 tahun yang sanggup mengharungi segala kepedihan hati yang mendewasakan dia. Ada kalanya, rasa macam nak hempukkkkk je suami dia si Zain tu. Soalan cepumas... mama nangis tak? OH SUDAH SEMESTINYA! Hahaha... tuala mandi siap standby di sisi tau... :D

Terlanjur Mencintaimu

2011-12-01T01:08:00.000+08:00

Penulis : Shamnuriezmil

Cinta itu mudah datang kepada sesiapa yang bersedia menerima cinta

Johan Iskandar mempunyai dua sebab mengapa dia terpaksa mengahwini Tengku Hanis Zulaikha. Satu, sebab wasiat Tok Din, satu lagi sebab Izhar, ayahnya. Tercetus satu perasaan di antara dia dan Tengku Hanis. Sudah terlanjur mencintai isteri paksaannya, apakah Tengku Hanis menerima Johan setelah mendapat tahu sebab utama Johan mengahwininya?

Johan Iskandar : "Tahu tak kenapa perasaan itu tidak ada? Kerana Johan Iskandar sudah jatuh cinta dengan Tengku Hanis Zulaikha, tak ada... dan tak akan ada wanita lain di hati Johan Iskandar selain Tengku Hanis Zulaikha!"

Tengku Hanis terpaksa menerima keputusan wasiat itu kerana takut keluarganya merempat. Dia mulanya tidak mencintai Johan disebabkan rasa takut yang mendalam, takut ditinggalkan. Tetapi di dalam diam, dia sudah terlanjur mencintai Johan. Adakah Tengku Hanis akan rela membuka sepenuh pintu hatinya kepada Johan Iskandar?

Tengku Hanis Zulaikha : "Bukan laut namanya jika airnya tidak berombak. Bukan cinta namanya jika perasaan tidak pernah terluka. Bukan kekasih namanya jika hatinya tidak pernah merindu dan cemburu!"

Wasiat Tok Din mempunyai 'due-date', adakah kedua-dua mereka berjaya memenuhi wasiat itu sebelum tamat tempohnya?

My 2 cents :

Secara keseluruhannya, mama suka novel ni. Tak berapa banyak 'pressure' bila baca walaupun ada tika dan kalanya, suspen juga. Jalan ceritanya, macam boleh nak dijangka (pergh... ni sebab dah banyak benar membaca semenjak dua menjak ni). And as usual, kalau orang lain baca tak meleleh airmata, mama tetap juga menyumbangkan sedikit airmata... kalah Neng Yatimah okay! Hahaha... Tapi apa yang paling best masa baca buku ni, banyak ayat-ayat cinta yang membuai rasa.. achewa....

Bermulanya...

While you practice all of the above, share this knowledge with the people you love, people you school with, people you play with, people you work with and people you live with. Not only will it enrich YOUR life, but also that of those around you.

Remember,

GOOD THINGS ARE FOR US TO SHARE.....!!!!!!

HATIMU MILIKMU - NERA AF9

2011-05-28T08:11:00.001+08:00

HATIMU MILIKMU
Single Nera AF9

Pernahkah engkau hargai cintaku yang sejati
Pernahkah engkau mengertikan diriku ini

Betapa hebatnya cintamu
memberiku sejuta pilu
betapa agungnya asmaramu.
membuatku terpaku

Disisimu kuterdiam seribu bahasa
dihatiku bergetar sejuta rasa
namun sukar untukku meluahkan ku cinta padamu
nafasku terhenti bila melihat dirimu
terasa pantas degupan jantungku
mungkinkah hatiku milikmu jua
sayang padamu..

Kan ku abadikan dikau
sewaktu kenangan yang manis
yang tak mungkin aku lupa
untuk selamanya
kanku coretkan kenanganmu
dalam sanubariku ini
agar jadi yang terindah

gelora cinta
mengucap jiwaku
untuk mencari
daratan yang damai
oh.. cintaku
oh..

Disisimu kuterdiam seribu bahasa

namun sukar untukku meluahkan cinta padamu..
ooohh.nafasku terhenti bila melihat dirimu
terasa pantas degupan jantungku ini
mungkinkah hatiku milikmu jua
sayang padamu..

kanku coretkan kenangananmu
dalam sanubariku ini
agar jadi yang terindah
di dalam hidupku ini

9 sebab-sebab hati tidak bahagia

2011-05-27T09:23:00.000+08:00

Setiap manusia yang baru dilahirkan berada dalam keadaan MAK SUM yang bebas dari sebarang dosa. Pabila kita telah mencapai umur aqal baligh barulah Allah swt perintahkan setiap amal kebajikan dan perbuatan kejahatan kita ditulis dalam buku amalan kita oleh malaikat Raqib dan Atiq.

9 SEBAB-SEBAB HATI TIDAK BAHAGIA

Antara mazmummah utama yang menghilangkan bahagia di hati ialah :

1. Pemarah paling mudah dikesan atau dilihat dan paling banyak di dalam diri manusia. Orang seperti ini jarang mendapat kawan dan hati tentunya tidak tenang.

2. Pendendam tersembunyi iaitu ibarat mengumpul lahar di dalam dada. Orang seperti ini sentiasa mencari-cari peluang untuk membalas dendam hatta secara yang kecil-kecil sekalipun seperti sakitkan hati atau tempelak orang yang didendami itu. Sebab itu orang pendendam mudah kena sakit jantung.

3. Hasad dengki - amalanya hangus akibat hasad dengkinya itu kerana ia memiliki sifat ketuhanan.

4. Bakhil - sentiasa merasakan orang lain menginginkan harta, kesenangan, pangkat dll. dari dirinya. Contohnya sentiasa berdalih mengatakan ia tiada duit. (rezeki yang diberi oleh Allah elok dikongsi bersama..-derma) Allah lebih sayang orang yang fasiq tetapi pemurah tetapi benci orang yang abid tetapi bakhil. Kerana walaupun fasiq, pemurahnya itu tetap memberi manfaat pada orang lain kerana kadangkala rezeki itu Allah beri melalui maknusia

5. Tamak orang yang tidak puas dengan yang sedikit nescaya tidak akan puas dengan yang banyak kerana dunia ini ibarat meminum air laut...walau berapa banyak yg diminum tetap tak abis jugak...lagipun org tamak selalu rugi.. ** Ingat ! yang dikatakan harta atau rezeki kita bila ia dipakai atau digunakan oleh kita. Selagi tidak diguna iaitu disimpan, itu belum boleh dikatakan rezeki kita. (mungkin ada hak orang lain di situ) Biarlah rezeki itu sedikit tetapi mendapat keberkatan iaitu dapat dimanfaatkan.

6. Tidak sabar andainya perkara yang kecil pun tidak boleh bersabar apatah lagi hal-hal yang lebih besar. (oleh itu banyak2kanlah bersabar bila hadapi dugaan..cthnyer time keja banyak..tetap maintain vogue walau keja bertimbun atas meja..heh..heh..)

7. Ego - ibu segala mazmummah jadi ia membuatkan seseorang paling tidak tenang. Orang yang memiliki sifat ini pantang tercabar dari sudut zahir mahupun batin.

8. Riak terseksa sendiri kerana sentiasa tercari-cari peluang untuk dipuji.. Sentiasa berlakun-lakun di depan orang. Jika ia dipuji, ia akan menambah amalnya tetapi jika dikeji, ia akan mengurangkan amalnya. -Allah marah kalau kita riak..takabbur dgn aper yg kita ada..

9. Cinta dunia - tidak dapat menderita, ...dapat pun menderita kerana bila sudah dapat susah pula menjaganya. Berhartalah tidak mengapa tetapi kawal hati jangan diletakkan pada harta itu. biler mati cuma bawa amalan dan doa anak yg soleh/solehah... Cinta dunia merupakan "neraka dunia" kerana dunia itu "panas" akibat ia merupakan barang buruan dan rebutan. Jadi letakkanlah akhirat itu di hati dan dunia itu di tangan supaya dunia itu senang dibahagi-bahagi dan akhirat dibawa mati.

Kesimpulan

Jadi yang meragut kebahagiaan sebenarnya bukanlah secara TOTALnya disebabkan kemiskinan, musibah, kesibukan dllnya. tetapi ialah MAZMUMMAH.

Makin tinggi mazmummah seseorang, makin ia tidak BAHAGIA. Samada bermujahadah atau biarkan saja mazmummah itu, kedua-duanya tetap menderita tetapi andainya bermujahadah kita akan dibantu Allah dan akan bahagia jua akhirnya.. So..sama-samalah kite sentiasa ingat mengingati antara satu sama lain...andai kita terleka dengan dunia buruklahh padahnya.

Wallahualam"

TREATMENT FOR SUGAR --> Lady Finger or Bhindi or Okra

2011-05-09T16:43:00.000+08:00

Thought of sharing this information with all of you. Got it in my email.

Please note that another name for Lady Finger (Bhindi ) is " OKRA ".

Last month in one of TV program I learnt of a treatment of Sugar (Diabetes). Since I am diabetic, I tried it and it was very useful and my Sugar is in control now. In fact I have already reduced my medicine. Take two pieces of Lady Finger (Bhindi) and remove/cut both ends of each piece. Also put a small cut in the middle and put these two pieces in a glass of water. Cover the glass and keep it at room temperature during night. Early morning, before breakfast simply remove two pieces of lady finger (bhindi) from the glass and drink that water. Keep doing it on daily basis. Within two weeks, you will see remarkable results in reduction of your SUGAR.

My sister has got rid of her diabetes. She was on Insulin for a few years, but after taking the lady fingers every morning for a few months, she has stopped Insulin but continues to take the lady fingers every day. But she chops the lady fingers into fine pieces in the night, adds the water and drinks it all up the next morning. Please. try it as it will not do you any harm even if it does not do much good to you, but U have to keep taking it for a few months before U see results, as most cases might be chronic.

KELEBIHAN BISMILLAH

2011-04-25T11:04:00.000+08:00

KELEBIHAN BISMILLAHسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِي

1) Yang pertama di tulis Qalam adalah BISMILLAH. Maka apabila kamu menulis sesuatu, maka tulislah BISMILLAH pada awalnya kerana BISMILLAH tertulis pada setiap wahyu yang Allah turunkan kepada Jibrail.

2) BISMILLAH untukmu dan umatmu, suruhlah mereka apabila memohon sesuatu dengan BISMILLAH. Aku tidak akan meninggalkannya sekejap matapun sejak BISMILLAH di turunkan kepada Adam - Petikan dari Hadis Qudsi.

3) Tatkala BISMILLAH di turunkan ke dunia, maka semua awan berlari ke arah barat, angin terdiam, air laut bergelora, mendengarkan seluruh binatang dan terlempar semua Syaitan.

4) Demi Allah dan keagunganNya, tidaklah BISMILLAH itu di bacakan pada orang sakit melainkan menjadi ubat untuknya dan tidaklah BISMILLAH dibacakan di atas sesuatu melainkan Allah beri berkat ke atasnya.

5) Barangsiapa yang ingin hidup bahagia dan mati syahid, maka bacalah BISMILLAH setiap kali memulakan sesuatu perkara yang baik.

6) Jumlah huruf dalam BSMILLAH ada 19 huruf dan Malaikat penjaga neraka ada 19. Ibnu Mas'ud berkata: Sesiapa yang ingin Allah selamatkan dari 19 Malaikat Neraka maka bacalah BISMILLAH 19 kali setiap hari .

7) Tiap huruf BISMILLAH ada JUNNAH(penjaga/khadam) hingga tiap huruf berkata, Siapa yang membaca BISMILLAH maka kamilah kekuatannya dan
kamilah kehebatannya.

8) Barangsiapa yang memuliakan tulisan BISMILLAH nescaya Allah akan mengangkat namanya di Syurga yang sangat tinggi dan di ampunkan segala dosa kedua orang tuanya.

9) Barangsiapa yang membaca BISMILLAH maka akan bertasbihlah segala gunung kepadanya.

10) Barangsiapa yang membaca BISMILLAH sebanyak 21 kali ketika hendak tidur, maka akan terpelihara dari gangguan Syaitan, kecurian dan kebakaran, maut mendadak dan bala.

11) Barangsiapa yang membaca BISMILLAH sebanyak 50 kali di hadapan orang yang zalim, hinalah dan masuk ketakutan dalam hati si zalim serta naiklah keberanian dan kehebatan kepada si pembaca.

Konsert AF 9 - Minggu ke 3

2011-04-24T19:07:00.000+08:00

Tak tahu apa sebabnya, persembahan pelajar-pelajar AF9 pada konsert minggu ke 3 ni, amat hambar. Lagu-lagu yang dipilih sendiri oleh mereka pun tidak menyengat, unlike masa konsert tirai dulu. Best jugak kan?

Tapi kan, pada pendapat mama, kritikan pedas dan lontaran ayat maut dari seorang pengkritik, AWAK HARUS DIGUGURKAN sedikit sebanyak menyebabkan kehilangan semangat dan tahap confidence para pelajar yang lain. Pelajar-pelajar tu pun hanya manusia biasa, yang punya perasaan, lagilah pulak, masih dalam tahap pembelajaran, jadinya, kalau nak kritik pun, janganlah sampai tahap mematikan semangat diorang.

Apa-apa pun semoga minggu depan, mereka akan buat yang lebih baik. Para pelajar baru yang diserap masuk, memang dah mama jangkakan...

Kalau disuruh pilih, mungkin pilihan mama minggu ini hanya Azri.....

Note : Kalau boleh, pengkritik yang dah selesai kritik, tak yahlah cakap lagi ye... sorang sekali je dah ler... :D jangan mare!

Expectation brings frustrations

2011-04-12T10:31:00.000+08:00

Got this from Shahrose via my email and thought of sharing it with all of you. Thank you Rose...

If you expect too much, you will be frustrated. If you don't want to be frustrated, don't expect. Live without expectations and there will be no frustration.

But people go on expecting; then frustration comes in - frustration is the shadow of expectation. When you feel frustrated you think that existence is doing something wrong to you. Any asking is asking too much. Don't ask, be. And then you will be surprised - whatsoever happens is good; you have no way to judge it.

I used to stay with a rich family in Calcutta. Once i went; the family had come to take me from the airport. The husband was very sad. I enquired, "What is the matter?" He said, "There has been a great loss." Listening to this, his wife started laughing. She said, "Don't bother about what he says. There has been no loss - in fact, there has been a great profit."

I was puzzled. I said,"You both are here. Please try to explain this riddle to me." The wise said,"There is no riddle. He was expecting ten lakh rupees and he got only five lakh rupees. So he says, 'Five lakh rupees' loss,' and I say,'You have profited' - but he won't listen, and he is very sad."

When you expect ten lakh rupees and you get five lakh you feel frusterated. If you are not expecting and you get five lakh rupees your are full of joy,
thankfulness gratitude

Don't expect, and you see your whole life becomes a joy. Expect, and your whole life becomes a hell. Expectation is the cause. If you want to change, never start by the effect, start by the cause. Frustration is the effect. You can go on fighting with frustration - nothing will happen, you will become more and more frusterated. Whenever you are feeling miserable, go into it and find out where the cause is. If you want to drop the effect then avoid the cause, then become aware, more and more aware.

There are many people who enjoy frustration. There are many people who enjoy being miserable. In fact, they cannot tolerate happiness at all. When they are miserable they are happy, when they are happy they feel very miserable. Whenever you are miserable you gain something : sympathy, attention. Whenever you are happy nobody shows any sympathy - in fact, people become jealous. When you are unhappy everybody is a friend, everybody sympathises with you - even your enemy will sympathise with you. When you are happy even your friend will become jealous and inimical.

When you are happy nobody pays any attention to you. People avoid you. In fact, they start thinking you must be mad : Happy? Who has ever heard of anybody being happy! When you are unhappy they accept you. Then they think everything is okay, because this is how things have to be. And people enjoy your unhappiness, that's why they pay attention - because whenever you are unhappy they can compare themselves, and deep down they can feel good.

You love frustration? Then go into it. Become more artistic about it, decorate it a little more; make new possibilities, new doors to become more frusterated. If you don't enjoy it, then I don't see the problem. Just go deep into it, watch, and you will find some expectation hidden behind. Whenever you expect, you are asking for frustration. Drop expectations.

CHEERS!

...MAAFKANLAH MAMA...

2011-03-29T21:50:00.000+08:00

Tengahari tadi, seperti biasa, mama pergi jemput Syahmi dan Iddin balik dari sekolah. Cuma kali ini, mama tak tahulah kenapa mama teralpa seketika sewaktu memandu keluar dari kawasan parking sekolah. Tumpuan mama tertuju ke arah sebuah kereta dan dua orang murid sekolah. Tak ada apa pub yang terjadi pada mereka sebenarnya tapi tak tahu macam mana, mama begitu ralit memandang mereka sampaikan mama terlupa untuk berhenti di simpang. Instead, mama terus keluar je.

Adoi mak, sib baik tak bertembung dengan kereta Citra hitam yang datang dari kiri. It seems, kereta tu horn, tapi mama boleh tak dengar. Cuma mama ternampak dia flash light je. Terus je mama angkat tangan tanda minta maaf... banyak kali mama angkat, tapi mama tak tengoklah ke arah dia, sebab mama dah ke depan...

Sepanjang panjang jalan pulang, mama rasa bersalah sangat. Memang silap mama. Mama alpa. MAMA HARAP SANGAT ORANG TU MAAFKANLAH MAMA. Memang mama tak sengaja. I don't really know what went into my head tadi sampai boleh ralit gitu...

Macam mana nak hilangkan rasa salah ni ek? Tak sukalah rasa cam ni....

Ada aku kesah????!!!

Tengahari tadi, di dalam kekalutan mama nak menjemput Syahmi dan Iddin balik dari sekolah, mama telah mencapai tudung yang disangkut di kerusi dan terus menyarungnya. Kunci pintu, hidupkan enjin kereta dan buka gate. Reverse dan kemudian tutup gate (picit remote je...hehehe..cemanalah tak tambah malas kan? Ish ish ish...salahkan teknologi, bukan salah mama ye... hahaha). Bila dah keluar dari post guard ke jalan besar, mama terpandangkan tudung mama. Eh, kenapa ye warnanya lain macam je nih? ALAMAKKKKKK... terbalik!

Mulanya rasa kalut juga. Nak ku buat macam mana ye? Lama-lama terfikir sendiri... alah, kalau orang nampak pun, habis habis dia akan cakap...eh eh, perempuan tu pakai tudung terbalik.... mmmm ada aku kesah? Hahaha...

Moral of the story : Jangan tension tension nak pikir benda kecik-kecik ni... wat dono je! Bley???

AKU MAHU KAMU

2011-02-21T11:21:00.000+08:00

Sinopsis :

Empat tahun Qisya Khaleesa cuba bertahan demi merawat luka di hati. Biarpun sukar, dia masih mengharapkan kemaafan Ziyad Fallah, Namun, suaminya itu tetap meletakkan kesalahan ke atas bahunya. Padahal, jiwa ibu mana yang tidak merintih setelah kehilangan satu-satunya permata hati. Pemergian Faiq yang dijemput ILLAHI benar-benar meragut kebahagiaan dia dan Ziyad.

Keegoan Ziyad membuatkan Quisya berjauh hati. Dia nekad membawa diri. Di luar pengetahuan Ziyad, dia tabah mengharungi hidup sendirian sehinggalah zuriat mereka berdua lahir ke dunia. Walaupun hatinya berat, Quisya berkorban sekali lagi tatkala dia sengaja meninggalkan bayi comel yang baru dihalirkannya itu di kediaman Ziyad. Dia rela berpisah dengan Firyal hanya kerana mahu menebus kekecewaan suaminya itu.

Namun, ternyata perpisahan itu bagaikan merentap naluri keibuan Qisya. Hatinya tetap juga bergetar hebat tatkala bayang Ziyad dan Firyal melintas jiwa. Dia tahu, di segenap relung nadinya masih sarat dengan rindu. Dan, dia hanya berperang dengan waktu demi melunaskan kerinduan itu....

Kerana buku nilah, semalam mama tidur pukul 1 pagi. Dahlah tidur lambat, airmata pulak asyik mengalir je. Hari tu masa mama teman hubby gi office sekejap, sementara dia buat kerja dia, mama membaca. Tanpa dapat ku tahan, airmata non stop berjuraian sampai tersumbat hidung. Hubby bukan nak simpati, dia gelakkan lagi adalah... saborrrr je la... Bila membaca kat rumah pulak, bila meleleh airmata, anak-anak geleng kepala... apalah mama ni.. well, mama jawab... mama baca dengan perasaan! Aduhai, sedih tak tahanlah... adakah daku over sensitif? Wallahu'alam.

Nak baca buku baru ke tak ek?

Geramkah?
Sewajarnya begitulah yang anda rasakan bila janji tidak ditepati.

Mama pernah.

For all parents out there...

2010-11-29T00:42:00.000+08:00

Pencil: I'm sorry....

Eraser: For what? You didn't do anything wrong.

Pencil: I'm sorry cos you get hurt bcos of me. Whenever I made a mistake, you're always there to erase it. But as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller and smaller each time.

Eraser: That's true. But I don't really mind. You see, I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever you do something wrong. Even though one day, I know I'll be gone and you'll replace me with a new one, I'm actually happy with my job. So please, stop worrying. I hate seeing you sad.

I found this conversation between the pencil and the eraser very inspirational. Parents are like the eraser whereas their children are the pencil. They're always there for their children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes along the way... they get hurt, and become smaller (older, and eventually pass on). Though their children will eventually find someone new (spouse), but parents are still happy with what they do for their children, and will always hate seeing their precious ones worrying, or sad.

This is for all parents out there.....

Memilih Sahabat

2010-11-28T09:22:00.004+08:00

Mama terima artikel ini di dalam email dan ingin berkongsi dengan semua di sini...

Best Friend in Islam

One companion asked Rasulullah (saw), “Who can be my best friend?”

Rasulullah (saw) answered, “Your best friend is a person:

*when you see him, he makes you remember Allah ;

*when you listen to him, knowledge of Islam is increased; and

*when you see his actions, you are reminded of the life of the Hereafter .”

Memilih Sahabat

Pesanan al-Qamah (seorang sahabat Rasulullah saw) kepada anaknya:

Pertama, pilihlah sahabat yang suka melindungi sahabatnya, dia adalah hiasan diri kita dan jika kita dalam kekurangan nafkah, dia suka mencukupi keperluan.

Kedua, pilihlah seorang sahabat yang apabila engkau menghulurkan tangan untuk memberikan jasa baik atau bantuanmu, dia suka menerima dengan rasa terharu, jikalau ia melihat kebaikan yang ada pada dirimu, dia suka menghitung-hitungkan (menyebutnya).

Ketiga, pilihlah seorang sahabat yang apabila engkau menghulurkan tangan untuk memberikan jasa baik atau bantuanmu, ia suka menerima dengan rasa terharu dan dianggap sangat berguna, dan jika ia mengetahui mengenai keburukan dirimu ia suka menutupinya.

Keempat, pilihlah sahabat yang jikalau engkau meminta sesuatu daripadanya, pasti ia memberi, jikalau engkau diam, dia mula menyapamu dulu dan jika ada sesuatu kesukaran dan kesedihan yang menimpa dirimu, dia suka membantu dan meringankanmu serta menghiburkanmu.

Kelima, sahabat yang jikalau engkau berkata, ia suka membenarkan ucapan dan bukan selalu mempercayainya saja. Jikalau engkau mengemukakan sesuatu persoalan yang berat dia suka mengusahakannya dan jika engkau berselisih dengannya, dia suka mengalah untuk kepentinganmu.

Dalam memilih sahabat kita hendaklah memilih sahabat yang baik agar segala matlamat dan hasrat untuk memperjuangkan Islam dapat dilaksanakan bersama-sama sahabat yang mulia.

SURPRISEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

2010-11-08T23:03:00.000+08:00

SURRPRISEEEEE....Ungkapan itu, seharusnya menjadi sesuatu yang menggembirakan buat orang yang menerima kejutan, tapi ada kalanya, ia menjadi sebaliknya pulak.

Imej ikhsan dari Google Image

Anda suka menerima kejutan? Mama tidak berapa gemar. Bukan tak suka tapi mungkin sebab mama tak tahu macam mana nak react bila menerima kejutan sedemikian. Dulu semasa di Malawi, tanpa pengetahuan mama, kawan-kawan rapat telah bersekongkol untuk mengadakan sambutan hari jadi mama di rumah mama sendiri tanpa mama dapat menghidu rancangan mereka. Licik sungguh kawan-kawan ku ini... Mama telah diajak oleh salah seorang dari mereka untuk menemani dia menjemput anak-anak saudaranya dari sekolah. Dia tahu mama pasti nak ikut sebab mama memang kaki jalan! Hahaha... kelemahanku ini membawa padah rupanya!

Bila kelibat mama hilang dari pandangan, mereka-mereka yang lainnya terus sahaja ke rumah mama dan mengatur segala apa yang patut dengan bantuan pembantu rumah ku yang tak ku sangka, turut sama bersekongkol! Bila kami sampai di rumah, mama jadi hairan, mengapa banyak pula kereta di perkarangan rumah mama. Bila mama masuk ke rumah, semuanya menjerit... SURPRISEEE..... dan apa yang mama mampu lakukan, hanyalah terkebil-kebil dan tersengih! Apa-apa pun jua, itulah antara kenangan termanis dalam kehidupan mama yang akan ku kenang sampai bila bila...

Pernahkah anda menerima surprise sebegini? Bagaimana perasaan anda?

Nonton stail lain???? Wah...

2010-10-29T14:52:00.000+08:00

Baru saja habis menonton episod 56 Cinta Kirana di TV. Tapi hari ni, cara mama menonton sedikit ~~berbeda~~ berbeza. Hari ini mama menonton tanpa perasaan. Rasanya lebih ~~nyaman kok~~ selesa dan tanpa rasa amarah.

Sekian lama, mama menonton cerita tu dengan penuh ~~emosi~~ penghayatan. Mama jadi ~~capek~~ letih. Orang yang berlakon tu, dah tentulah dapat bayaran kerana berlakon, tapi mama dapat apa? Dapat penat je!

Tapi apa ~~bisa~~ mungkin mama terus ~~terusan kayak~~ macam ni? Menonton tanpa perasaan? Rasa macam tak boleh je.... anda bagaimana?

SIAPA YANG BERLARI, SIAPA YANG PENAT NIH?

2010-10-29T08:29:00.000+08:00

Petang tadi, cadangnya nak pergi kedai membeli barang dapur. Tapi lepas ambil anak dari sekolah, mama baringlah kejap melepas ~~helah~~ lelah. Tangan pun dengan otomatiknya on kan television. TERtengok cerita CINTA ROTI, yang mengisahkan warga asing yang bekerja sebagai pembuat roti di sebuah restoren, dok kelentong 3 orang perempuan demi duit... ala-ala pisau cukur ~~gilette~~.

Perempuan pertama, boss restoren. Perempuan kedua, career lady dan yang ketiga, wanita yang bekerja di pejabat pengiklanan (lakonan Sherina anak Chef Wan). Boss tu, dia yang syok kat mamat ni. Yang kedua tu, saja je kenkawan. Tapi dengan Sherina ni, mamat tu ada hati gak kat dia, tapi kat negeri sendiri, dah ada isteri... Kesemua wanita-wanita ini amat bermurah hati menolong mamat ni dengan menghulur duit apabila mamat ni buat muka ~~seposen~~ kesian.

Si Mamat ni pun kenalah berlari sana-sini dating dengan ketiga-tiga perempuan tu..... mama yang menonton, terus kepenatan....lalu tertidur... tanpa mengetahui apa kesudahannya! Hahahaha....

Saper ada tengok? Citer sket apa ending dia?

Nota kaki : Kedai ke mana...mama ke mana! Cemana?

Reti bagus ke, tak reti bagus?

2010-10-27T11:00:00.000+08:00

Kali ini, kita citer bab memandu pulak....

Anda ada lesen memandu yang SAH?
Ada?....Bagus....
Anda ada keberanian untuk memandu?
Ada?....Bagus....
Anda rasa, anda pemandu yang berhemah di jalanraya?
Ye?...Ye ker? .....Bagus....

Gambar ihsan dari Google Image

Pernah tak anda bertanya kepada penumpang-penumpang anda, samada mereka ~~SERAM~~ takut tak bila duduk di dalam kereta yang dipandu oleh anda? Mama selalu bertanya kepada penumpang-penumpang mama dan alhamdulillah, jawapan yang diterima adalah amat positif sekali.... tapi tak tahulah samada itu seratus peratus ikhlas ke atau sekadar mengambil hati... ala tak kisahlah...janji jawapannya positif.

Sekarang, soalan lain pulak. Bagaimana pula perasaan anda andai anda menjadi penumpang? Apa reaksi anda? Anda ada tak merasa ~~asam~~ kecut perut? Rasa nak tekan invisible brakes bila duduk di kerusi penumpang? Hahaha.. itu acap kali mama rasakan...

Jadinya, adakalanya mama terfikir... ada juga baiknya kalau tak reti memandu sebab bila tak reti memandu, orang memandu membuta tuli pun, kita tak ambil kisah. Tapi bila dah reti memandu... kat kerusi penumpang pun kita nak tekan brek....cemana tuh!!!

ADA... TAK GUNAKAN... WAT HAPER!!!

2010-10-26T16:59:00.000+08:00

Ada? Ada apa?
Jam loceng ler...

Tak guna? Kenapa?
Guna tu guna, tapi bila kawan tu berbunyi... ma off kan dan terus sambung tidur...

Wat hapa?
Buat perhiasan je la....

Imej ikhsan dari Google Image

Pagi tadi, jam loceng berbunyi... mama offkan dan teruskan tidur. Bila celik mata, jam menunjukkan ke pukul 7.15 pagi. Melompat bangun. Ha ah, tahu, tak elok untuk kesihatan. Tapi mengenangkan anak nak ke sekolah, ku lompat jua....

Sampai di perkarangan sekolah, pukul 7.33 pagi. Ingatkan kami yang paling lambat, rupanya ada juga lagi yang datang selepas kami... tak apalah macam tu kan.. kurang sket rasa bersalah....

Malas dah nak peringat diri sendiri... hari ni beriya dok beringat, sok lusa buat balik. Tak de maknanya!

Shhhhh...rahsia okay....

2010-10-26T07:49:00.000+08:00

Shhhhhhhh.....

Ini rahsia okay....kita dua orang je yang tahu... kata si polan A.
Lepas tu kan, nanti esok lusa, ada lah orang lain dok bercerita dengan kita yang sipolan A ni gitu gini gitu gini... sama seperti rahsia yang telah dibisikkan pada kita sebelumnya. Mmm cemana tuh? Apa nak buat? Buat bodoh je la....

Ada orang boleh simpan rahsia orang lain, tapi ada orang tak boleh. Kalau ditanya saya, saya boleh menyimpan rahsia orang lain dengan jayanya, tapi rahsia saya sendiri, saya ternyata tidak berupaya. Selalu sahaja bolos.... Siapa nak disalahkan tu? Tak apa, tak payah jawab sebab ternyata, jawapannya...salah saya sendiri...

Justeru itu, rahsia anda adalah selamat dengan saya, tetapi, tak payahlah susah-susah suruh saya simpan rahsia anda sebab saya tak kuasa.....

Selamat sejahtera buat semua.....

BIKIN SPOIL HARI MAMA AJE!!!

2010-10-25T09:33:00.004+08:00

HABIS TUMPAH......

Hish buat spoil je pagi ku yang indah ni... Sib baik tak banjir dapur.
Ingatkan dah tutup, rupanya tak kuat...
Ingatkan masaalah dah tak ada, rupanya masih belum selesai....
Siapa nak disalahkan? Mama? Atau dia?
Siapa dia?

MESIN BASUH MAMA LA....
Mesin basuh mama ni baru je ada masaalah selepas ada sedikit masaalah dengan penapis air di luar rumah tu. Semenjak kejadian hari tu, mesin basuh ni macam seman (pronounced as...seyman) je. Bila dah habis cyclenya, kalau tak tutup paip air, air akan masuk dalam mesin dan membasahkan semula baju yang telah di'spin'.

Semenjak hari tu, mama akan tutup paip airnya selepas habis cycle terakhir. Pagi ni, mama rasa mama dah tutup, rupanya tak tutup rapat. Lepas tu, tanpa usul periksa dan dengan keyakinan tahap maksima, mama pun bukalah pintu mesin basuh....hah...amek ko... berlambaklah air keluar... nak salahkan siapa? Lu pikirrrrlah sendiri.......

Terfikir sendiri....

Agak-agak, kalau masuk rancangan Deco Bersama Eric, kalau suruh renovate dapur, mesti bestkan? Leh dapat mesin basuh, oven baru, microwave baru, stove baru...silap haribulan, periuk belanga dan pinggan mangkuk baru...bestnya......

Adakah mama dibayar tunai oleh Allah?

2010-10-25T08:54:00.000+08:00

Nawaitu...

Itu yang penting dalam melakukan sesuatu pekerjaan. Dan kita seharusnya tetap dengan niat kita itu.

Mama telah terpesong sedikit dengan niat asal mama bila berfacebook. Akaun dibuka juga atas nasihat sifoo blogging, Ben Ashaari. Masih teringat kata-kata Ben semasa menyakinkan mama agar membuka akaun. Ingat mama, tujuan buka akaun FB adalah untuk mingkatkan 'traffic' ke blog mama. Masih terpahat ungkapan itu di benak mama ni. Tapi setelah terjun ke dunia FB, mama terlalai.... lantas blog-blog ku terbiar... tersadai.... terbengkalai...

Walaupun ada juga yang cuba beralas kata, memperingatkan mama, tapi mama tetap tak perasan hinggalah ke hari ini... mama tersedar sendiri... betapa mama telah leka..... Adakah mama telah dibayar tunai oleh Allah kerana kelalaian ini.... wallahu'alam....

BAWANG...RM70.00? BIAR BETUL....

2010-10-24T21:35:00.000+08:00

Harga bawang sampai RM70.00? Esh.. bawang apa tu? Bawang dari emas ke dari tembaga ke?

Tak de la..... gimic je tu...

Pagi semalam, mama memang plan nak pergi kedai. Nak beli tepung dan telur. Saja ajak Kak Ana, kot dia nak ikut. Kan bagus car pool dari pergi sendiri-sendiri. Jimat minyak, dapat kurangkan pencemaran udara dan juga kesesakan lalu lintas. Lagipun, kalau pergi kedai ada kawan, best sikit. Kak Ana pun setuju nak ikut sebab dia nak beli bawang, katanya...

Kami pergi kedai... 2 kedai... Kak Ana habis RM70.00 ++, mama habis RM100.00 ++...hanya kerana ke kedai nak beli bawang, telur dan tepung... mahal kan harga barang-barang tuh... dahlah tu, booth kereta pun penuh! Macam mana tuh?

Nota : Lenkali nak beli bawang, pergi je kedai depan rumah, baru RM2.00!!

HABIS MADU, SEPAH DIBUANG???

2010-08-12T08:10:00.000+08:00

Habis madu sepah dibuang?
Eh tu bukan mama tu... tak percaya?
Ni ha.. hubby belikan mama untuk birthday hari tu...

Bila birthday mama?
Bulan Jun hari tu.... Ma guna phone ni sekali, sampai bateri habis... lepas tu tukar balik kepada yang lama... si dia ni ha....

Setia pada yang lama... kenapa?

Kerana dikau telah bertakhta di hatiku... ahahaha... sabor je la... Mama suka phone yang lama sebab dia punya function macam komputer. Lagipun mungkin mama dah biasa dengannya sebab mama dah gunakannya lebih dari 5 tahun. Walaupun gigi mu rongak, kau tetap menjadi pojaan hatiku.....

Phone baru tak best ke? Eh bukan tak best...memang best.. siap ada kamera lagi... tapi, itulah yang buat mama susah hati sket... sebab kena ambil extra precautions terhadap kamera kat belakang phone tu... huhuhu.. kita ni dahlah jenis ganas...bih cemana tu?

Tapi nanti, nak kena gunalah yang baru... bagilah pencen kat yang lama... takut nanti, abang merajuk lak, tak nak belikan benda baru untuk mama. Dahlah nak belikan phone yang baru ni pun, entah berapa kali mama reject...

p/s : Orang yang nak phone baru, tak dapat dapat...kita yang tak nak, di offer offer...eeee bestnya........

Ish kagum sungguhla.....

2010-08-11T08:33:00.001+08:00

Ha ah, betul...kagum... Pasal apa tau....

Pagi ni, anak mama pergi sekolah seAWAL 7 pagi. Siap kena onkan lampu kereta lagi! Lepas tu kan, memandu pun boleh relax je, tak yah rempit-rempit macam selalunya. Kagum tuhhhh...... Itu pun, kalau tidak, dia nak suruh mama hantar dia pergi sekolah, pukul 6.40 pagi! Esh biar betul... mama kata, adik nak tolong buka pagar, pintu tingkap sekolah ke? Hahaha...

Bila sampai sekolah... eee ramainya budak-budak dok bersantai kat bawah shelter di drop off zone tu. Satu pemandangan yang teramat jarang kami temui.... ish...kagumnya....

Bila balik rumah pulak, mesin basuh dah siap buat kerja dia. Jadinya, terus je la mama sidai baju seAWAL 7.20 pagi. Nasib baiklah matahari dah menjengok keluar. Kalau tak... segan juga kot... kot ler orang kata macam tak menyabar-nyabar pulak nak sidai baju... tapi... ada aku kesah? Hahaha.... Tapi tu lah, sidai baju awal ni...ish...kagumnya...

Mmm.. lepas ni, entah apa lagilah yang akan dikagumi ye....

SELAMAT BERPUASA....

MINYAK... CUKUP KE TAK EH?

2010-08-10T07:53:00.002+08:00

Ish..dah tinggal setakuk je warna hijau kat fuel indicator dalam kereta. Satu takuk warna hijau, satu lagi warna merah. Masa tengah memandu tadi, tukar mode screen ke 'jarak sebelum perlu diisi minyak kereta'... menunjukkan angka 90km... cukup ke?

Mama nak ke mana hari ni?

Err... pergi sekolah jemput anak balik dan hantar dan jemput anak dari tuition di sebelah petangnya.

Berapa jauh tu?

Sekolah dalam 3 km pergi balik...tuition dalam 10 km pergi balik kot...kalau tak pun, lebih sket...

Ek eleh...... kalau tak cukup...saja je la! Hahaha... Apalah mama ni suka sangat panik. Tu sebab dah banyak rambut platinum!

BILA MAMAFAMI NAIK ANGIN!!!!

2010-08-09T19:10:00.001+08:00

'Horn' kereta ku berbunyi petang tadi... hah tu tandanya mama dah marahlah. Mama memang jarang benar menggunakan 'horn' kereta sebab mama hormati pemandu lain. Lagipun abang cakap, kalau boleh, elakkan dari membunyikan 'horn' terutamanya pada penunggang motosikal dan basikal sebab diorang boleh terperanjat dan mungkin membahayakan.

Lagi pun 'horn' kereta mama ni agak keras. Kalau tak kena gaya tekan, tak berbunyi dia. Tapi kalau dia berbunyi tu, gamaknya memang ma betul-betul tekanlah tuh....

Tadi masa dalam perjalanan nak ambil anak dari tuition, mama ikutlah lane kanan sebab kita drive laju sket kan... sekali tu, ada satu bas kilang ni, dia baru bagi signal nak ke kanan, terus buat U-turn! Apa dia tak nampak ke kami yang kat lane kanan ni dah dekat! Bukan kereta ma sorang tau, banyak kereta kat belakang. Mama terpaksa brake... sib baik tak kena 'cium' dengan kereta belakang!

Aiyooo... kalau tak sayang nyawa sendiri, tolonglah pikirkan nyawa orang dalam bas kilang dia tu dan nyawa-nyawa kami yang lain ni....

Phew... lega sket.....

Bicara hati.....

2010-06-30T23:56:00.003+08:00

Hari ini, mama rasa macam ada yang sesuatu yang kurang Tak seperti tiga hari yang sudah....
Apa ye yang menyebabkan mama rasa demikian?
Oh ya..... mama tak membaca novel hari ni...
Kenapa tak baca?
Sebab mama dah selesai membaca novel yang kedua dan lagi mama ni kalau dah mula membaca, buruk sikit perangainya...macam tak boleh nak berhenti. Ada kalanya, terpaksa memaksa diri berhenti membaca demi melunaskan segala kerja yang tertunggak. Dah tiga malam, mama tidur, melepasi jam 1 pagi. Semata-mata kerana tak terdaya melawan keinginan untuk mengetahui apa kesudahannya....

Wahai Damya Hanna... mengapakah tergamak dikau menyiksa diriku ini?

Tapi, diakah yang menyiksa mama, atau mama yang menyiksa diri sendiri...
Selalunya, mama kalau membaca novel, mama seolah-olah menyerapkan diri ke dalam cerita tu. Itu sebab 'feel'nya amat kuat. Dan kalau cerita tu tension, mama akan berasa tension sama. Kalau cerita tu sedih....siap kau.... tisulah yang menjadi mangsa! Mama boleh sampai teresak-esak. Kalau cerita tu tengah gembira dan bahagia, siaplah berbunga-bunga hati mama ni. Bunga ros, bunga kertas, bunga ta*k ayam pun ada... hahaha... Kalau cerita tu menggambarkan kemarahan... haaa itulah masa terbaik untuk mama stop membaca dan menyambung kerjarumah. Macam malam semalam.... bila tiba ke bab yang menaikkan amarah, mama terus tutup buku dan hempuk buku tu atas meja. Bak kata Mak Chu....entah apalah dosa buku tu! Hahahaha.... Suami mama yang tengah buat kerja di ruang tamu, terkejut. Bila dia bertanya, kenapa? Ringkas saja jawapan mama.....SAKIT HATI! Hahaha....

Semalam mama habis membaca novel BICARA HATI karya Damya Hanna. Ceritanya best cuma mama sungguh rasa tersiksa.... nak tahu kenapa? Kenalah baca sendiri ye....

Oleh kerana mama telah menyerapkan diri dalam novel ini... kiranya mama ni Zahlia la kan... mestilah kita nak ambil peranan yang baik-baik je kan... hahaha... Mama rasa, walaupun setinggi mana sekali pun kasih sayang ma pada Tengku Syahran tu, hati mama masih ada 0.01% terguris yang tak mungkin padam... Nampaknya, mama ni lagi keras hati dari Zahlia kan? Kalau rasa macam terpinga-pinga apa yang mama tulis ni.... bacalah ye novel BICARA HATI ini....

Lepas ni..... nak baca lagi ke tidak novel baru? Nak baca ke tidak? Nak baca ke tidak? Nak baca ke tidak? Zzzzzzzzzzzzz...............

Senafas Rindu

2010-06-28T11:58:00.003+08:00

Salaam and good day everyone..
Hope all are in good health and good sprit to start a new week.....

My weekend was a hectic one. Everything didn't go according to plan. I was supposed to attend our neighbour's daughter's engagement ceremony on Saturday but then a the day before, I received a call from our parent's neighbour in Melaka, informing us that the outside lights were not functioning for more than a week. It's not good to leave an unoccupied house in the dark of the night for a long time. So hubby said, let's fix the lights and he thought of going back after Fajr prayers. But I can't as I had promised Kak Dah (our neighbour) to do for her 100 pieces of fruit tarts and some jelly. And also, I have to collect the curry puffs I had helped her to order, from Kak Timah. Soon after Fajr prayers, I set to work. First, cook the filling and let it cool. Meanwhile, spread some melted cooking chocolate on the base of the tart casings. Pipe the filling and arrange the fruits (Kiwi, Apricot and Cherry) on top. All done by 9.00 am. Then rushed to Kak Timah's place to collect the currypuffs. Luckily it was all ready by the time I reached her place. After everything were safely delivered, I got ready and off we went back to Melaka. It took longer than what hubby had expected. He tried to fix the lights, but since it was quite old, the best decision is to get a new lights. We bought the one which does not need a starter. According to Mr Gox, the electrician who happens to be our parents' close friend, the lights are much better than the old ones. Not only it does not need a starter, it's lighter and saves energy to about 20%. Hubby had asked him to fix the sensor onto the lights and all he has to do at home, is just fix it to the ceiling. After the job was done, on the way home, we thought of just dropping by the neighbour's house just to thank them. But hubby got carried away chatting and we only started our journey back to KL at 6.40pm!

On Sunday, woke up early for Fajr. Didn't go back to sleep. Got carried away reading a novel by Damya Hana entitled Senafas Rindu. Gosh, I can't stop reading! Had to stop at 9.45am because Syahmi's tuition teacher came to teach Syahmi and Iddin. After they've started the class, I went to Giant to get Fatin's stuff because we planned to go and visit her in the evening. Back from Giant, I prepared some garlic bread, mushroom soup and fried some fish nuggets to serve them. Alhamdulillah all gone..... You'll be able to see the photos in MamaFaMi's Spice n Splendour

Yesterday night, I was so into reading the novel as it was the climax of the story. I didn't watch the football match, Germany vs England but stayed infront of the TV just to accompany hubby. At 12.30 pm, we went out for a drink and when we came back 15 minutes after that, I continued reading. Hubby off the lights as he wanted to sleep before waking up again at 2.30am. I went to the dining room and continued reading till the end, sobbing all the way. It was a nice story. You can read the synopsis here . I only slept at 1.50am!

Child Kidnap Trick

2010-06-03T14:22:00.000+08:00

Assalamualaikum and a very good day to everyone. I received this news in my email, sent by Ummi and thought it would be appropriate for me to share it with all of you. We'll never know who we might save by publishing this article. Just be extra careful with your dearest ones in the midst of your shopping spree....

Child Kidnap Trick in Carrefour, JB

Wanted to share something that happened today while shopping at Carrefour.. A mother was leaning over looking for meat and turned around to find her 4 years old daughter was missing. I was standing there right beside her, and she was calling her daughter with no luck.

I asked a man who worked at Carrefour to announce it over the loud-speaker. He did, and left me, he immediately walked right past me when I asked and went to a pole where there was a phone. He made an announcement for all the doors and gates to be locked, a code something. So they locked all the doors at once.

This took all of 3 minutes after I asked the guy to do this. They found the little girl 5 minutes later in a bathroom stall drugged. Her head was half shaved, and she was dressed in her underwear with a bag of clothes, a razor, and wig sitting on the floor beside her, to make her look different.

Whoever this person was, took the little girl, brought her into thebathroom, shaved half her head, and undressed her in a matter of less than 10 minutes. This makes me shake to no end. Please keep a close eye on your kids when in big places where it's easy for you to get separated like Shopping Malls. It only took a few minutes to do all of that. Another 5 minutes and she would have been out the door.

I am still in shock that some sick person could do this, let alone in a matter of minutes. The days are over when our little ones could run rampant all over the place and nothing worse would happen then them annoying people.

The little girl is fine. Thank God for fast workers who didn't take any chances.

Take care everyone....

To my dearest hubby.....

Di manakah pemandangan terindah di dunia?
Puas ku cari setelah jauh melangkah
Hingga takdir menyuluh ke arah mu
Ku temu pemandangan itu terlakar di wajahmu

Dengan setiap renungan
Terpesona ku rasakan
Dengan setiap belaianmu hati makin tersentuh

Oh kasih, oh kasih
Ku berterima kasih
Padamu kerana menyempurnai hidupku

Dan sakit dah sungguh aku asyik terjatuh
Jatuh cinta dengan kamu

Dalam berjuta-jutaan lagu
Tiada satupun dapat menenteramkan kalbu
Melainkan bila kau menyebut
Ke telinga bahawa kau juga sayang padaku

Dengan setiap lafaz kata
Harapan makin menyinar
Untuk kita bersama membina hidup bahagia

Oh kasih, oh kasih
Ku berterima kasih
Padamu kerana menyempurnai hidupku

Dan sakit dah sungguh aku asyik terjatuh
Jatuh cinta dengan kamu

Ku rasa setuah-tuah manusia
Nikmati hidup dengan wanita yang ku cinta

With lots of love till death do us part....

Happy belated teacher's day

HAPPY BELATED TEACHER'S DAY
...to all teachers in this world...

Helped my cousin to make these cards for the teachers in her school. Actually she had asked me to google for nice wordings to be pasted on the teacher's day card she intended to do. I ended up helping her do the card instead of looking for the wordings! Hahaha... It was fun making the cards for you kak... after a long time not having the chance to play around with art.

And this is my signature at the back of the card, copyright controlled..... *wink*

Happy 17th Birthday FATIN!

2010-03-30T15:12:00.000+08:00

HAPPY 17th BIRTHDAY FATIN!

WITH LOADS OF LOVE... from Ayah, Mama and Syahmi....
Moga kehidupan Along diberkati ALLAH SNT sepanjang detik dan ketika...

InsyaAllah if everything goes well, we'll pay her a surprise visit this evening. I had phoned the school on Monday, to inform them about this and the teacher in charged said it's not a problem. And I made him keep this secret as well.... Wonder how Fatin will re-act!! Hahaha...

I've made for her some cupcakes... I know she doesn't quite favour these flowery designs, but sorrylah Along... this is what your mom is capable of doing with her limited skills. Better something than nothing huh! Hahaha....

Speaking of Fatin's birthday, actually the date was chosen by me. She was a week overdue that time. And why did I pick 30th March? Because that date is the birthdate of my best friend in Malacca Girls' High School, Hafiza Abd Hamid. I am still trying to find her. Fiz, the daughter of Uncle Hamid and Aunty Kalthum and the younger sister of Puan Hamidah Abd Hamid. If any of Hafiza's friend or if Fiz is read this post, please contact me via my email.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FIZ.... I never forget....

Happy 71st Birthday Mak

2010-02-06T01:37:00.000+08:00

Today 5th February, 2010 is my mom's 71st birthday. Happy birthday MAK. May you stay healthy and cheerful always. May Allah's blessings be with you always.... Love ya....

Mak had been through a hard time last year. But because she has a strong will power and a real fighter, for those who never knew she had been sick once before, will never know about it. End of 2008, my parents came to stay with us as my mom had not been keeping well and can't drive my dad for his dylisis treatment. Not only that, she's not that strong to do the house chores as well. She was always on her oxygen machine. When she came to stay with us, she was in such a bad state. After a week, when we saw that her condition worsen, we adviced her to go for a check up at the hospital. My brother brought her to the hospital and she was admitted straight away. The next day, she fell into a coma. She was in that stage for 2 weeks. And my dad, whom was left at home, kept asking for mom. Both of them are very very very attached to each other. Where ever my mom is, you'll find my dad there as well. And when he didn't see his wife for a few days, I can see that he's loosig a part of his life. It is so painful for me to write this, but I just have to let it out. We didn't tell abah what had happened to mak, fearing that it'll come as a shock to him. Abah was fragile that time and we feared for the worst. After 10 days, hubby and me told my siblings that we think, we'll just have to take the risk. We have to bring abah to meet mak at the hospital. So we brought abah to the hospital that Sunday.

Since mak was all wired up, Abah didn't recognised her or maybe Abah just didn't want to accept that he's looking at his wife. Abah held Mak's hand for a long time. That was the last time he held her hands dearly for the following Wednesday, our dear Abah left us, forever...... I miss you Abah...

Mak regain her consciousness after two weeks. We dare not tell her what had happened. Then she started to get curious. What was I doing at the hospital looking after her in the mornings. Who's looking after her husband. Everytime she asked me, I'll divert her attention towards something else and since she's still under the influence of the drugs, she'll just forgot about her question. When we thought that she's ready to be told about the sad news, we had asked our Pak Busu and Mak Busu to break the news to Mak. When Mak Busu told Mak, she looked sad, just for a few minutes then she smiled. That was because, she's not fully aware just yet. And she decided to be fully awared and herself again, when it was my shift looking after her. She asked me, where is my Abah and when I tried the previous trick, she kept asking the same question with her eyes on me! Oh oh... am I in big trouble! Why must it always be me!!!!! Since I have no other choice, I broke the news, the best way I could. Mak is strong. I AM NOT! She just had tears in her eyes, but I had tears streaming down my face!

Anyway, that's a part of Mak's life. The woman with a strong will power, a fighter, a good mother and certainly a very good wife to a very good husband....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAK
AL-FATIHAH BUAT ABAH....

The Iman -Preacher and his Son

Gambar adalah sekadar hiasan semata

Every Friday afternoon, after the Jumat service at the Central Masjid (and shortly after Al-Usrah program), the Imam and his eleven year old son would go out into their town and hand out "PATH TO PARADISE" and other Islamic literature.

This particular and fortunate Friday afternoon, as the time came for the Imam and his son to go to the streets with their booklets, it was very cold outside, as well as pouring rain. The boy bundled up in his warmest and driest clothes and said, 'OK, dad, I'm ready!' His 'Mallam' dad asked, 'Ready for what?' 'Dad, it's time we gather our tracts together and go out.' Dad responds, 'Son, it's very cold outside and it's pouring rain.'The boy gives his dad a surprised look, asking, 'But Dad, aren't people still going to hell, even though it's raining?' Dad answers, 'Son, I am not going out in this weather.' Despondently, the boy asks, 'Dad, can I go? Please?' His father hesitated for a moment then said, 'Son, you can go. Here are the booklets. Be careful son.''Thanks, Dad!' And with that, he was off and out into the rain.

This eleven year old boy walked the streets of the town going door to door and handing everybody he met in the street a pamphlet or a booklet. After two hours of walking in the rain, he was soaking, bone-chilled wet and down to his VERY LAST BOOKLET. He stopped on a corner and looked for someone to hand a booklet to, but the streets were totally deserted. Then he turned toward the first home he saw and started up the sidewalk to the front door and rang the door bell. He rang the bell, but nobody answered..He rang it again and again, but still no one answered. He waited but still no answer. Finally, this eleven year old da'wah-expert turned to leave, but something stopped him. Again, he turned to the door and rang the bell and knocked loudly on the door with his fist. He waited, something holding him there on the front porch! He rang again and this time the door slowly opened. Standing in the doorway was a very sad-looking elderly lady. She softly asked, 'What can I do for you, son?' With radiant eyes and a smile that lit up her world, this little boy said, 'Ma'am, I'm sorry if I disturbed you, but I just want to tell you that ALLAH REALLY LOVES AND CARES FOR YOU and I came to give you my very last booklet which will tell you all about God, the real purpose of creation, and how to achieve His pleasure.' With that, he handed her his last booklet and turned to leave. She called to him as he departed. 'Thank you, son! And God Bless You!'

Well, the following Friday afternoon after Jumat service (during which period they hold a weekly program, Al-Usrah) the Imam was giving some lectures. As he concludes the lectures, he asked, 'Does anybody have questions or want to say anything?'

Slowly, in the back row among the ladies, an elderly voice was heard over the speaker. As the voice went on, a hint of glorious gaiety and contentment was plainly evident in it even though the wasn't to be seen, 'No one in this gathering knows me. I've never been here before. You see, before last Friday I was not a Muslim, and thought I could be. My husband passed on some time ago, leaving me totally alone in this world.. Last Friday, being a particularly cold and rainy day, it was even more so in my heart that I came to the end of the line where I no longer had any hope or will to live. So I took a rope and a chair and ascended the stairway into the attic of my home. I fastened the rope securely to a rafter in the roof then stood on the chair and fastened the other end of the rope around my neck. Standing on that chair, so lonely and broken-hearted I was about to leap off, when suddenly the loud ringing of my doorbell downstairs startled me. I thought, I'll wait a minute, and whoever it is will go away.? I waited and waited, but the ringing doorbell seemed to get louder and more insistent, and then the person ringing also started knocking loudly....I thought to myself again, 'Who on earth could this be? Nobody ever rings my bell or comes to see me.' I loosened the rope from my neck and started for the front door, all the while the bell rang louder and louder.

When I opened the door and looked I could hardly believe my eyes, for there on my front porch was the most radiant and angelic little boy I had ever seen in my life. His SMILE, oh, I could never describe it to you! The words that came from his mouth caused my heart that had long been dead TO LEAP TO LIFE as he exclaimed with a cherub-like voice, 'Ma'am, I just came to tell you that ALLAH REALLY LOVES AND CARES FOR YOU!' Then he gave me this booklet, Path To Paradise that I now hold in my hand.

As the little angel disappeared back out into the cold and rain, I closed my door and read slowly every word of this book. Then I went up to my attic to get my rope and chair. I wouldn't be needing them any more.You see? I am now a Happy Vicegerent of the One True God. Since the address of your congregation was stamped on the back of this booklet, I have come here to personally say THANK YOU to God's little angel who came just in the nick of time and by so doing, spared my soul from an eternity in hell.'

There was not a dry eye in the masjid. And as shouts of TAKBIR!!! ALLAH AKBAR!!! rented the air, even among the ladies, despite themselves. Imam-Dad descended from the pulpit to the front row where the little angel was seated....He took his son in his arms and sobbed uncontrollably. Probably no jama'at has had a more glorious moment, and probably this universe has never seen a Papa that was more filled with love and honor for his son... Except for One. This very one...Blessed are your eyes for reading this message.

When do you actually feel yourself getting old?
Is it when you saw strands of grey hair among all the black ones?
Is it when you celebrate your birthday?
Is it when you saw lines and wrinkles on your face?
Well I guess, for me, I will only realise (though I don't really want to) I am old when I receive wedding invitations from friends! The same goes to my hubby because it was actually him who said this! Haha...

Last Sunday, we were in Teluk Intan, attending our friends, Mr Mahizir & Puan Latifah's daughter's wedding. Congratulations to Nurul Idayu and her hubby Muhammad Irwan. Wishing you the best of life today and in the days to come. Amin...

Struggle a Little

2009-11-08T09:49:00.001+08:00

Another beautiful piece that I got in my email. Thanks dear cousin...

Struggle a Little

Once a biology class was going on.. The teacher was teaching the class on how a butterfly comes out of its cocoon... He brought a live cocoon to demonstrate a butterfly coming out... Unfortunately he was called out on an urgent task before the butterfly could come out... But before he went he warned the class that on no condition should anyone help the butterfly to come out...

He went out and after some time the cocoon opened and the butterfly started to come out...

One boy taking pity on the butterfly's struggle helped it to come out...

The sir returned and saw the butterfly and then asked the class, Who helped the butterfly?

The boy raised his hand and confessed...

The sir said u did grave error in helping the butterfly...

In helping it u deprived the butterfly of it life's goal...

The initial struggle out of the cocoon should help the butterfly strengthen its wings...

now it will never fly...

We are also in some ways like this butterfly...

Now read on .....

Sometimes Struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If we were to go through life without any obstacles, It would cripple us. We would not be as strong as we could have been And we could never fly.

So next time you are faced with an obstacle, A challenge, or a problem, Struggle a little and then you can fly

Embracing Imperfection

2009-10-21T22:19:00.000+08:00

EMBRACING IMPERFECTION

When I was a little girl, I could remember, my mom making breakfast and dinner for us.
And I remember one night in particular when she had made dinner after a long, hard day at work.
On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of egg, sausage, and extrmely burned toast in front of my dad.
I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed'
Yet all my dad did was reach for his toast, smile at mom and ask me how my day was at school.
I don't remember what I told him that night but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on that toast and eat every bite?

When I got up from the table that evening I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad
For burning the toast.
And I'll never forget what he said
Baby, I love burned toast.

Later that night, I went to kiss daddy good night and I ask him if he really liked his toast burned.
He wrapped me in his arms and said
Dear , your momma put in a hard day at work today and she's real tired, And besides a little burnt toast never hurt anyone
You know life is full of imperfect things and imperfect people.
I am not the best housekeeper or cook.

What I've learned over the years
Is that learning to accept each other's faults
And choosing to celebrate each other's difference
Is one of the most important keys
To crating a healthy growing
And lasting relationship.

And that's my prayer for you today
that you will learn to take
The good, the bad, and the ugly parts of your life
And lay them at the feet of God
Because in the end
He's the only One who will be able
To give you a reationship
Where burnt toast isn't a deal-breaker"

We could extend this to any relationship in fact
As understanding is the base of any
relationship ,
Be it a husband - wife or parent - child or friendship

Don't put the key to your happiness in
Someone else's pocket but into your own.

Touching story...

2009-10-20T07:31:00.000+08:00

A father and Son story when his wife left him.

4 years ago, an accident took my beloved away and very often I wonder, how does my wife, who is now in the heavenly realm, feel right now? She must be feeling extremely sad for leaving a husband who is incapable to taking care of the house and the kid. 'cos that is the exact feeling that I have, as I feel that I have failed to provide for the physical and emotional needs of my child, and failed to be the dad and mum for my child.

There was one particular day, when I had an emergency at work. Hence, I had to leave home whilst my child was still sleeping. So thinking that there was still rice leftovers, I hastily cooked an egg and left after informing my sleepy child.

With the double roles, I am often exhausted at work as well as when I am home. So after a long day, I came home, totally drained of all energy. So with just a brief hug and kiss for my child, I went straight into the room, skipping dinner. However, when I jumped into my bed with intention of just having a well-deserved sleep, all i heard and felt was broken porcelain and warm liquid! I flipped open my blanket, and there lies the source of the 'problem'... a broken bowl with instant noodles and a mess on the bed sheet and blanket!

Boy, was I mad! I was so furious that I took a clothes hanger, charged straight at my child who was happily playing with his toy, and give him a good spanking! He merely cried but not asking for mercy, except a short explanation.

"Dad, I was hungry and there wasn't anymore leftover rice. But you were not back yet, hence I wanted to cook some instant noodles. But I remembered you reminding me not to touch or use the gas stove without any adults around, hence I turned on the shower and used the hot water from the bathroom to cook the noodles. One is for you and the other is for me. However, I was afraid that the noodles will turn cold, so I hid it under the blanket to keep it warm till you return. But I forgot to remind you 'cos I was playing with my toys...I am sorry Dad..."

At that moment, tears were starting to run down my cheeks...but I didn't want my son to see his dad crying so I dashed into the bathroom and cried with the shower head on to mask my cries. After that episode, I went towards my son to give him a tight hug and applied medication on him, while coaxing him to sleep. Then, it was time to clear up the mess on the bed. When everything was done and well past midnight, I passed my son's room, and saw that he was still crying, not from the pain on his little buttock, but from looking at the photograph of his beloved mummy.

A year has passed since the episode, I have tried, in this period, to focus on giving him both the love of his dad and mum, and to attend to most of his needs. And soon, he is turning seven, and will be graduating from kindergarten. Fortunately, the incident did not leave a lasting impression on his childhood memories and he is still happily growing up.

However, not so long ago, I hit my boy again, with much regret. This time, his kindergarten teacher called, informing me of my son's absence from school. I took off early from work and went home, expecting him to explain. But he wasn't to be found, so I went around our house, calling out his name and eventually found him outside a stationery shop, happily playing computer games. I was fuming, brought him home and whack the hell out of him. He did not retaliate, except to say, 'I am sorry, Dad'. But after much probing, I realized that it was a 'Talent Show' organized by his school and the invite is for every student's mummy. And that was the reason for his absence as he has no mummy.....

Few days after the caning, my son came home to tell me, the kindergarten has recently taught him how to read and write. Since then, he has kept to himself and stayed in his room to practise his writing, which I am sure, would make my wife proud, if she was still around. 'cos he makes me proud too! Time passes by very quickly, and soon another year has passed. It's winter, and its Christmas time. Everywhere the christmas spirit is in every passer-by...Christmas carols and frantic shoppers....but alas, my son got into another trouble. When I was about to knock off from the day's work, the post office called. Due to the peak season, the post master was also on an edgy mood. He called to tell me that my son has attempted to post several letters with no addressee. Although I did make a promise never to hit my son again, I couldn't help but to hit him as I feel that this child of mine is really beyond control. Once again, as before, he apologized, ' I'm sorry, Dad' and no additional reason to explain. I pushed him towards a corner, went to the post office to collect the letters with no addressee and came home, and angrily questioned my son on his prank, during this time of the year. His answer, amidst his sobbing, was : The letters were for Mummy.

My eyes grew teary, but I tried to control my emotions and continued to ask him: " But why did u post so many letters, at one time?" My son's reply was: " I have been writing to mummy for a long time, but each time I reach out for the post box, it was too high for me, hence I was not able to post the letters. But recently, when I went back to the postbox, I could reach it and I sent it all at once..."

After hearing this, I was lost. Lost at not knowing what to do, what to say.....

I told my son, " Son, mummy is in the heavenly kingdom, so in future, if you have anything to tell her, just burn the letter and it will reach mummy. My son, on hearing this, was much pacified and calm, and soon after, he was sleeping soundly. On promising that I will burn the letters on his behalf, I brought the letters outside, but couldnt help opening the letter before they turn to ash.

And one of the letters broke my heart....

After reading the letter, I cant stop sobbing. 'cos I can never replace the irreplaceable gap left behind by my wife....

For the females with children:
Don't do so much overtime. If you cannot finish the work, it must be some kind of problems within the company, and it is not your sole problem. Feedback to your boss. Endless overtime may not necessary be the answer to the problem. Take care of your health so that you can treasure and take care of your little precious.

For the married men:
Drink less, smoke less, cos nothing can replace your good health, not even business nor clients.Try thinking this way, are you able to work till your clients are totally dependent on you? or your boss is totally dependent on you? In this society, no one is indispensable. Take care of your health, so that you can take care of your little precious and your loved ones.

For those singles out there:
Beauty lies in loving yourself first. With confidence and loving yourself, you will see the beauty in other things around you. You will be able to work better and happier. Don't let your health be affected by your work or your boss, so nothing matters more than your well being.

Berapa lama kita di kubur?

Berapa lama kita dikubur?

Awan sedikit mendung, ketika kaki kaki kecil Yani berlari-lari gembira di atas jalanan menyeberangi kawasan lampu merah Karet.

Baju merahnya yg besar melambai-lambai di tiup angin. Tangan kanannya memegang ice-krim sambil sesekali mengangkatnya ke mulutnya untuk dicicapi, sementara tangan kirinya mencengkam Ikatan sabuk celana ayahnya.

Yani dan Ayahnya memasuki wilayah pemakaman umum Karet, berputar sejenak ke kanan & kemudian duduk Di atas tembok nisan "Hj Rajawali binti Muhammad 19-10-1915: 20- 01-1965"

"Nak, ini kubur nenekmu mari Kita berdo'a untuk nenekmu" Yani melihat wajah ayahnya, lalu meniru gaya tangan ayahnya yg mengangkat ke atas dan ikut memejamkan mata seperti ayahnya. Ia mendengarkan ayahnya berdo'a untuk Neneknya...

"Ayah, nenek waktu meninggal umur 50 tahun ya Yah." Ayahnya mengangguk sambil tersenyum, sambil memandang pusara Ibu-nya.

"Hmm, bererti nenek sudah meninggal 42 tahun ya Yah..." Kata Yani berlagak sambil matanya mengira dan jarinya berhitung. "Ya, nenekmu sudah di dalam kubur 42 tahun ... "

Yani menoleh kepalanya, memandang sekeliling, banyak kuburan di sana . Di samping kuburan neneknya ada kuburan tua berlumut "Muhammad Zaini: 19-02-1882 : 30-01-1910"

"Hmm.. Kalau yang itu sudah meninggal 106 tahun yang lalu ya Yah", jarinya menunjuk nisan bersebelahan kubur neneknya. Sekali lagi ayahnya mengangguk. Tangannya terangkat mengusap kepala anak satu-satunya. "Memangnya kenapa ndhuk( anak perempuan) ?" kata sang ayah menatap teduh mata anaknya. "Hmmm, ayah kan semalam bilang, bahwa kalau kita mati, lalu di kubur dan kita banyak dosanya, kita akan disiksa dineraka" kata Yani sambil meminta persetujuan ayahnya. "Iya kan yah?"

Ayahnya tersenyum, "Lalu?"
"Iya .. Kalau nenek banyak dosanya, berarti nenek sudah disiksa 42 tahun dong yah di kubur? Kalau nenek banyak pahalanya, berarti sudah 42 tahun nenek senang dikubur .... Ya nggak yah?" mata Yani bersinar keranana bisa menjelaskan kepada Ayahnya pendapatnya.

Ayahnya tersenyum, namun sekilas tampak keningnya berkerut, tampaknya cemas ...... "Iya nak, kamu pintar," kata ayahnya pendek.

Pulang dari pemakaman, ayah Yani tampak gelisah Di atas sajadahnya, memikirkan apa yang dikatakan anaknya... 42 tahun hingga sekarang... kalau kiamat datang 100 tahun lagi...142 tahun disiksa .. atau bahagia dikubur .... Lalu Ia menunduk ... Meneteskan air mata...

Kalau Ia meninggal .. Lalu banyak dosanya ...lalu kiamat masih 1000 tahun lagi berarti Ia akan disiksa 1000 tahun?
’Innalillaahi WA inna ilaihi rooji'un’ .... Air matanya semakin banyak menetes, sanggupkah ia selama itu disiksa? Iya kalau kiamat 1000 tahun ke depan, kalau 2000 tahun lagi? Kalau 3000 tahun lagi? Selama itu ia akan disiksa di kubur. Lalu setelah dikubur? Bukankah Akan lebih parah lagi?
Tahankah? padahal melihat adegan pameran dipukuli masa di tv kemarin ia dah tak tahan?

Ya Allah... Ia semakin menunduk, tangannya mengangkat, setinggi bahunya naik turun tak teratur.... air matanya semakin membanjiri pipi dan janggutnya…

”Allahumma as aluka khusnul khootimah”.. berulang Kali di bacanya DOA itu hingga suaranya serak ... Dan ia berhenti sejenak ketika terdengar batuk Yani.

Dihampirinya Yani yang tertidur di atas dipan Bambu. Di betulkannya selimutnya. Yani terus tertidur.... tanpa tahu, betapa sang bapak sangat berterima kasih padanya karena telah menyadarkannya arti sebuah kehidupan... Dan apa yang akan datang di depannya...

"Yaa Allah, letakkanlah dunia ditanganku, jangan Kau letakkan dihatiku..."

"Sebarkanlah walau hanya 1 ayat"

Swallows

Swallows....

Here his wife is injured and the condition is fatal.
She was hit by a car as she swooped low across the road.

Here he brought her food and attended to her with love and compassion.

He brought her food again but was shocked to find her dead.
He tried to move her....a rarely-seen effort for swallows!

Aware that his sweetheart is dead and will never come back to him again, he cries with adoring love.

He stood beside her, saddened of her death.

Finally aware that she would never return to him, he stood beside her body with sadness and sorrow .

Millions of people cried after watching this picture in America and Europe and even in India . It is said that the Photographer sold these pictures for a nominal fee to the most famous newspaper in France. All copies of that newspaper were sold out on the day these pictures were published.

And many people think animals don't have a brain or Feelings!! Think again......

Beautiful Hadith ~ Al Quran

2009-10-12T09:31:00.000+08:00

A Beautiful Hadith
Hadis yang Menarik

Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: 'When a man dies and his relatives are busy in funeral, there stands an extremely handsome man by his head. When the dead body is shrouded, that man gets in between the shroud and the chest of the deceased.
Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) bersabda : 'Bila seseorang lelaki itu mati dan saudaranya sibuk dengan pengebumiannya, berdiri lelaki yang betul-betul kacak di bahagian kepalanya. Bila mayatnya dikapan, lelaki itu berada di antara kain kapan dan si mati.
Selepas pengebumian, semua orang pulang ke rumah, 2 malaikat Mungkar dan Nakir, datang dalam kubur dan cuba memisahkan lelaki kacak ini supaya mereka boleh menyoal lelaki yang telah meninggal itu seorang diri mengenai ketaatannya kepada Allah. Tapi lelaki kacak itu berkata,
Dia adalah temanku, dia adalah kawanku. Aku takkan meninggalkannya seorang diri walau apa pun. Jika kamu ditetapkan untuk menyoal, lakukanlah tugasmu. Aku tidak boleh meninggalkannya sehingga aku dapati dia dimasukkan ke dalam Syurga.'.

Thereafter he turns to his dead companion and says, 'I am the Qur'an, which you used to read, sometimes in a loud voice and sometimes in a low voice. Do not worry. After the interrogation of Munkar and Naker, you will have no grief.'
Selepas itu dia berpaling pada temannya yang meninggal dan berkata,'Aku adalah Al-Quran, yang mana kamu membacanya, kadang-kadang dengan suara yang nyaring dan kadang-kadang dengan suara yang perlahan. Jangan bimbang. Selepas soal siasat dari Mungkar dan Nakir, kamu tidak akan bersedih.'

When the interrogation is over, the handsome man arranges for him from Al-Mala'ul A'laa (the angels in Heaven) silk bedding filled with musk.
Selepas soal siasat selesai, lelaki kacak mengatur untuknya daripada Al-Mala'ul A'laa (malaikat dalam Syurga) tempat tidur dari sutera yang dipenuhi bauan kesturi.

Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: 'On the Day of Judgement, before Allah, no other Intercessor will have a greater status than the Qur'an, neither a Prophet nor an angel.'
Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) bersabda :'Di hari pengadilan, di hadapan Allah, tiada syafaat yang lebih baik darjatnya daripada Quran, mahupun dari nabi atau malaikat.'

Please keep forwarding this 'Hadith' to all ....because
Sila sebarkan Hadis ini kepada semua .......kerana

Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said:

'Pass on knowledge from me even if it is only one verse'.
'Sampaikan pengetahuan dari ku walaupun hanya satu ayat.'

May Allah bestow this favour on all of us.

As you got up this morning, I watched you, and hoped you would talk to me, even if it was just a few words, asking my opinion or thanking me for something good that happened in your life yesterday. But I noticed you were too busy, trying to find the right outfit to wear. When you ran around the house getting ready, I knew there would be a few minutes for you to stop and say hello, but you were too busy. At one point you had to wait, fifteen minutes with nothing to do except sit in a chair. Then I saw you spring to your feet. I thought you wanted to talk to me, but you ran to the phone and called a friend to get the latest gossip instead. I watched patiently all day long. With all your activities I guess you were too busy to say anything to me.

I noticed that before lunch you looked around, may be you felt embarrassed to talk to me, that is why you didn't bow your head. You glanced three or four tables over and you noticed some of your friends talking to me briefly before they ate, but you didn't. That's okay. There is still more time left, and I hope that you will talk to me yet. You went home and it seems as if you had lots of things to do. After a few of them were done, you turned on the TV. I don't know if you like TV or not, just about anything goes there and you spend lot of time each day in front of it not thinking about anything, just enjoying the show. I waited patiently again as you watched the TV and ate your meal, but again you didn't talk to me.

Bedtime I guess you felt too tired. After you said good night to your family you popped into bed and fell asleep in no time. That's okay because you may not realize that I am always there for you. I've got patience, more than you will ever know. I even want to teach you how to be patient with others as well.

I love you so much that I wait everyday for a nod, prayer or thought or a thankful part of your heart. It is hard to have a one-sided conversation. Well, you are getting up once again. And once again I will wait, with nothing but love for you. Hoping that today you will give me some time. Have a nice day!

Your friend,

ALLAH

Yes, I do Love Allah. Allah is my source of existence and Savior. Allah keeps me functioning each and everyday.

Without Allah, I will be nothing. Without Allah, I am nothing, but with Allah This is the simplest test . . . if you Love Allah, and are not ashamed of all the marvelous things Allah has done for you. Send this to your list!

Bulan Rejab

2009-06-24T17:34:00.000+08:00

BULAN REJAB

Pada 24 Jun 2009 (Rabu) kita memasuki bulan Rejab. Bulan Rejab adalah bulan Allah swt. Let's overview ada apa di sebalik bulan Rejab itu.
Diriwayatkan bahwa Rasulullah saw telah bersabda, "Ketahuilah bahwa bln Rejab itu adalah bulan ALLAH swt, maka:"

1. Barang siapa yang berpuasa 1 hari dalam bulan ini dengan ikhlas, maka pasti ia mendapat keredhaan yang besar dari ALLAH swt

2. Dan barang siapa berpuasa pada tanggal 27 Rejab /Isra Mi'raj (Isnin, 20 Julai 2009) akan mendapat pahala seperti 5 tahun berpuasa

3. Barang siapa yang berpuasa 2 hari di bulan Rejab akan mendapat kemuliaan di sisi ALLAH swt

4. Barang siapa yang berpuasa 3 hari yaitu pada tanggal 1, 2, dan 3 Rejab (24, 25, 26 Jun 2009) maka ALLAH swt akan memberikan pahala seperti 900 tahun berpuasa dan menyelamatkannya dari bahaya dunia dan seksa akhirat

5. Barang siapa berpuasa 5 hari dalam bulan ini, insyaallah permintaannya akan dimakbulkan Allah swt..InsyaAllah

6. Barang siapa berpuasa 7 hari dalam bulan ini, maka ditutupkan 7 pintu neraka Jahanam dan barang siapa berpuasa delapan hari maka akan dibukakan 8 pintu syurga

7. Barang siapa berpuasa 15 hari dalam bulan ini, maka ALLAH swt akan mengampuni dosa-dosanya yang telah lalu dan menggantikan kesemua kejahatannya dengan kebaikan, dan barang siapa yang menambah (hari-hari puasa) maka ALLAH swt akan menambahkan pahalanya."

Sabda Rasulullah saw lagi :"Pada malam Mi'raj, saya melihat sebuah sungai yang airnya lebih manis dari madu, lebih sejuk dari air batu dan lebih harum dari minyak wan gi, lalu saya bertanya pada Jibril as "Wahai Jibril untuk siapakah sungai ini?"

Maka berkata Jibrilb as "Ya Muhammad sungai ini adalah untuk orang yang membaca selawat untuk engkau dibulan Rejab ini."

Dalam sebuah riwayat Tsauban bercerita :"Ketika kami berjalan bersama-sama Rasulullah saw ke sebuah kubur, lalu Rasulullah saw berhenti dan beliau menangis dengan amat sedih, kemudian beliau berdoa kepada ALLAH swt. Lalu saya bertanya kepada beliau "Ya Rasulullah, mengapakah engkau menangis?" Lalu beliau bersabda "Wahai Tsauban, mereka itu sedang diseksa dalam kuburnya dan saya berdoa kepada ALLAH swt, lalu ALLAH swt meringankan atas mereka."

Sabda beliau lagi "Wahai Tsauban, kalaulah sekiranya mereka ini mahu berpuasa satu hari dan beribadah satu malam saja di bulan Rejab nescaya mereka tidak akan disiksa di dalam kubur." Tsauban bertanya "Ya Rasulullah, apakah hanya berpuasa satu hari dan beribadah satu malam dalam bulan Rejab sudah dapat mengelakkan dari seksa kubur?"

Sabda beliau "Wahai Tsauban, demi ALLAH Zat yang telah mengutus saya sebagai nabi, tiada seorang muslim lelaki dan perempuan yang berpuasa satu hari dan mengerjakan so lat malam sekali dalam bulan Rejab dengan niat karena ALLAH swt, kecuali ALLAH swt mencatatkan baginya seperti berpuasa satu tahun dan mengerjakan solat malam satu tahun."

p:s Rebutlah 5 perkara sblm dtg 5 perkara

1. Waktu Muda sblm Tua
2. Waktu Sihat sblm Sakit
3. Waktu Lapang sblm Sibuk
4. Waktu Kaya sblm Miskin
5. Waktu Hidup sblm Mati

Insyaallah..mudah-mudahan Allah SWT memberkati segala amalan baik kita.

Rakaat pertama :- Kelam dengan kesalahan.
Rakaat kedua :- Kelam dengan air laut .
Rakaat ketiga :- Kelam dengan malam.
Rakaat keempat :- Kelam dengan perut ikan Nun .

MAGHRIB:
Orang yang pertama mengerjakan sembahyang Maghrib ialah Nabi Isa a.s.,tatkala baginda dikeluarkan oleh Allah dari kejahilan dan kebodohan kaumnya, sedang waktu itu telah terbenamnya matahari. Bersyukurlah Nabi Isa lalu bersembahyang tiga rakaat kerana diselamatkan dari kejahilan tersebut, iaitu:
Rakaat pertama :- Untuk menafikan ketuhanan selain daripada Allah yang Maha Esa.
Rakaat kedua :- Untuk menafikan tuduhan dan juga tohmahan ke atas ibunya Siti Mariam yang telah dituduh melakukan perbuatan sumbang.
Rakaat ketiga :- Untuk meyakinkan kaumnya bahawa Tuhan itu hanya satu iaitu Allah jua, tiada dua atau tiga.

ISYAK:
Orang yang pertama mengerjakan sembahyang Isyak ialah Nabi Musa a.s. Pada ketika itu Nabi Musa telah tersesat mencari jalan keluar dari negeri Madyan, sedang dalam dadanya penuh dengan perasaan dukacita. Allah lalu menghilangkan semua perasaan dukacitanya itu pada waktu Isyak yang akhir.Lalu sembahyanglah Nabi Musa empat rakaat sebagai tanda bersyukur.
Rakaat pertama :- Dukacita terhadap isterinya.
Rakaat kedua :- Dukacita terhadap saudaranya Nabi Harun.
Rakaat ketiga :- Dukacita terhadap Firaun..
Rakaat keempat :- Dukacita terhadap anak Firaun .

Thank you Mak Teh for this lovely card. Will paste it here for Fatin to read when she has the chance to do so...

We went to visit Fatin last Sunday (29th March), just to spend time with her and for an early small celebration.

The school had their 10th swimming carnival last Saturday. Too bad we can't make it there to cheer her up. Fatin had to take part in 7 events which she managed to get 6 medals. Alhamdulillah. On Friday, when I phoned her, she kept on saying that, "Mama, don't put any high hopes for me to get any medals for you this time ya. I am just too tired after the cross country and after the MSSM events." And mama replied,"OK!". But girl, I lied! I had hoped and prayed that you'll do your best and I think you did better than what I had actually hoped for. I know you will never let me down! Caiyokkk Along!

Rewards of guiding another

2009-03-28T08:48:00.000+08:00

A’Hadiths
Guidance from The Prophet (saws)

Hadrat Abu Hurairah (r.a.) reported: ‘The Messenger of Allah (saws) said, "He who calls others to follow the Right Guidance will have a reward equal to the reward of those who follow him, without their reward being diminished in any respect on that account.''’
Related by Muslim. Hadith quoted from Riyad-us-Saliheen (Hadith # 1382)

Commentary :

To invite every person who is willing to listen to good caution to the Truth of Islam is the obligatory duty of every believer; to accept or reject the invitation is entirely upto the individual.
If one is guided to the Straight Path by Allah through a person’s efforts, every good deed the one who was (newly) guided does, the person who invited him to the Straight Path will also receive a reward equal to the person who did the deed, without any diminish in the rewards of the one who actually did the good deed.

Water disruption

2009-03-27T17:08:00.000+08:00

Received this in my email, sent by S3norita. Thanks Ita for informing me....

.......................The disruption in Petaling is due to installation of a
700mm size Water Balance Meter at the 1200mm MS main near the Sime UEP Petaling
pond between 5pm on March 27 and 9am the following day.

Areas
affected by this are USJ 1 to 27, Sime UEP Subang Jaya, Putra Bestari, USJ
Industrial Site, Jalan Jurutera-Puchong, Kampung Kenangan-Puchong and Kampung
Sri Langkas-Puchong............

Huhuhu, I really don't like it when it comes to WATER disruption. Makes me feel uneasy and tensed at the same time. It's like, I am crippled and can't do anything! Silly huh? I still have a big tank that, insyaAllah can last us the whole day or maybe more. Maybe I had 'suffered' enough back then when Malacca had it's water crisis for almost a year, in 1991 if I am not mistaken. Imagine having a lot of taps in the house but when you turn it on, not a drip will come out of it! That time, we only get water from our taps, like two days once! I was staying with my parents that time and everytime when I hear the water coming, I'll get very excited and were more than willing to sacrifice my sleep. The water supply will normally come around midnight! Everybody were sound asleep except me. I'll be filling the buckets with water and bring them upstairs to fill up the water tank in the bathrooms. Not only that, I will fill up almost all the available containers, and even the kettles! As for the kettles, I'll stick a note "BELUM DIMASAK" on it, so that when mom wakes up in the morning, she'll know that the water are not yet boiled. I guess, by the time the water crisis was over, my hands were bulging with muscles like Popeye the Sailor Man. Thank God my ex-fiancee is still willing to marry me.... hahaha.........

Hobby # 2

2009-03-24T14:15:00.000+08:00

Baking

........which I think everyone knows, if you have been to my MamaFaMi's Spice n Splendour . Sometimes I just can't stop myself from trying out new recipes though I am fully aware that I don't really have any willing volunteers to eat them. Application is open for the job of 'Food Tester'. Please send in your resume before end of March.... hahahahaha... I AM JUST KIDDING!

I have this passion for cooking at an early age. I like to hang around in the kitchen when mom's cooking. I can still remember, at the age of 9, I actually made the maid keep a secret. I had told her, if mom asked, who cooked the rice, just say you did... where else I was the one who cooked the rice. But thank God, mom never asked, so nobody lied! Hahaha... naughty mama huh?

We'll get especially excited when mom said that she's going to bake a cake! My mom, who was a teacher that time, wasn't much a baker and she hardly bakes cakes. That was why, whenever she said she's baking one, all the three of us will keep checking in the kitchen, whether the cake is ready or not! Mom doesn't have all these baking trays or pans that time. I can still remember how she baked a cake in the cooking pot! Well that doesn't count. What's important is what that pot produced! A yummy delicious cake which was well enjoyed by everyone, esecially the 'piranha' kids! Hihihi.... And that time, just a simple marble cake is enough to please us....

When I first baked a cake, it wasn't as nice a cake should be. But that never put me off. I never give up hope. Always thinking positive that I will achieve the right texture if I keep trying. And thanks to my dearest hubby who always motivate me. Whenever I said that I am not a good cook nor a good baker, he'll say....

When we were born into this world, we know nothing about almost everything...
We learn as we grow...
And we learn more if we never give up....
...that's what I am doing now......and insyaAllah will never stop learning till I breathe my last breath....

Well, just a few snap shots of what yet to be posted in MamaFaMi's Spice n Splendour .....

Keajaiban Berselawat

2009-03-08T10:58:00.000+08:00

Selalu kita dengar - di ceramah-ceramah agama (bukan ceramah politik), di kaca TV selepas subuh, di radio (terutama IKIM) - mengingatkan kita tentang betapa pentingnya selawat. Penceramah sendiri pun selalu berselawat ketika hendak memulakan dan mengakhiri ceramahnya. Begitu juga dengan guru agama - berselawat di permulaan dan penghujung sesi pengajarannya.

Apakah pentingnya selawat? Kenapa semua orang berselawat? Besar sangatkah selawat itu? Mari kita sama-sama selidik kebesaran selawat ini. Tak seronoklah berselawat bila kita tak tahu kelebihan-kelebihan selawat. Oleh itu, pagi ini kita akan membincangkan tentang keajaiban selawat.

1. Sabda Rasullah SAW: Barangsiapa yang berselawat ke atasku sekali, nescaya Allah akan turunkan rahmat ke atasnya 10 kali ganda - (Hadis Riwayat Muslim.)

2. Allah akan hapuskan dosa-dosa kecil dengan kita mengamalkan berselawat sebanyak 11 kali setiap kali selesai menunaikan solat fardu.

3. Jodoh ditentukan oleh Allah. Amalkan selawat 100 kali sehari, insyaAllah akan dipermudahkan bertemu jodoh sama ada lelaki @ wanita.

4. Setiap penyakit ada penawarnya. Bacalah selawat 7 kali pada air dan minum. Insya Allah, perut yang sakit atau memulas akan sembuh.

5. Sesiapa yang amal membaca selawat 3 kali setiap selepas solat 5 waktu akan dihilangkan kebuntuan fikiran dalam menghadapi apa jua masalah.

6. Amalkan membaca selawat sebanyak 1000 kali sehari, insya Allah akan dikurniakan kebijaksanaan pemikiran. Di samping itu berusahalah untuk menerokai pelbagai ilmu.

7. Sesiapa yang mengamalkan berselawat 11 kali setiap hari, dengan izin Allah dirinya akan lebih dihormati dan dihargai oleh orang lain.

8. Menurut Sayyid Ahmad Dahlan, sesiapa yang berselawat walau sekali pada malam Jumaat, saat mautnya kelak akan dipermudahkan Allah seperti yang dihadapi oleh para nabi.

9. Sesiapa yang berselawat 41 kali sehari, Insya Allah akan dihindarkan daripada sifat tercela seperti hasad dengki dan sebagainya dalam dirinya.

10. Sesiapa yang amalkan berselawat 1000 kali pada malam Jumaat, insya-Allah akan beroleh kebahagiaan sama ada di dunia mahu pun di akhirat.

11. Amalkan selawat 11 kali tiap kali selesai solat fardu kerana Allah akan mengindahkan akhlaknya menjadi lebih disenangi di kalangan orang lain.

12. Berselawat 33 kali sehari dapat menjernihkan hati, mudah memahami akan sesuatu ilmu yang diajarkan, di samping beroleh ketenangan fikiran.

13. Sesiapa yang berselawat tak kiralah banyak mana hitungannya setiap hari akan dapat keberkatan dalam apa jua dengan syarat ia berusaha mencari keredhaan-Nya.

14. Amalan berselawat sebanyak yang mungkin setiap hari menjamin keselamatan hidup dan pertolongan Allah, lebih-lebih lagi pada saat kita menghadapi kesukaran hidup.

15. Menurut Syibab Ahmad, sesiapa berselawat 3 kali setiap selesai solat Subuh, Maghrib & Isyak, Allah akan menghindarkannya daripada sebarang bencana.

16. Sesiapa yang amalkan berselawat sebanyak 1000 kali setiap hari, Allah akan memeliharanya daripada sebarang ancaman musuh serta bahaya fitnah.

17. Amalan berselawat secara teratur setiap hari mampu membersihkan kekeruhan jiwa, dipermudahkan Allah akan segala urusan dan mendapat keampunan daripadaNya.

18. Menurut As-Shawi, sesiapa yang membaca selawat secara rutin, akan terpelihara hatinya daripada gangguan serta tipu daya syaitan yang melalaikan.

19. Membaca selawat 10 kali pada setiap waktu pagi dan petang akan memperolehi keredhaan serta dijauhkan diri daripada mendapat kemurkaan Allah.

20. Sesiapa yang membaca selawat sebanyak 7 kali selama 7 Jumaat berturut-turut, ia bakal mendapat syafaat (pertolongan) daripada baginda SAW.

21. Menurut Al-Hafiz Dimyati, sesiapa yang berhajat menemui Nabi SAW dalam mimpinya maka amalkan membaca selawat sebanyak 70 kali sehari.

22. Ada riwayat yang menyatakan bahawa amalan berselawat 80 kali tiap selepas solat Asar pada hari Jumaat, insya-Allah akan dihapuskan dosa-dosa kecil seseorang.

23. Sesiapa yang sering mengamalkan berselawat pada setiap hari, Allah akan bukakan pintu rahmat dan rezeki yang tidak disangka-sangka baginya.

24. Jiwa yang resah gelisah dapat ditenangkan dengan zikir, termasuklah berselawat sekerap yang mungkin kerana Allah itu Maha Luas rahmat-Nya.

25. Ulamak berpendapat, sesiapa yang mengamalkan selawat saban hari tak kira berapa hitungannya, insya-Allah dihindarkan daripada taun dan wabak penyakit berbahaya yang lain.

26. Membaca selawat 1000 kali selepas solat hajat 2 rakaat mampu menghilangkan keresahan, rasa dukacita serta dikabulkan Allah akan hajatnya.

27. Menurut para ulama, sesiapa yang inginkan saat kematiannya dalam kesudahan yang baik, maka berselawatlah sebanyak 10 kali setiap selesai solat Maghrib.

28. Para Ulamak berpendapat, Allah akan sempurnakan hajat yang baik dengan sentiasa berselawat 40 hingga 100 kali setiap hari, diikuti dengan usaha yang berterusan.

29. Sabda Nabi SAW: Barangsiapa yang berselawat kepadaku sebanyak 100 kali pada hari Jumaat, maka ia akan datang pada hari kiamat dengan keadaan bercahaya - Hadis Riwayat Abu Naim.

30. Sabda Nabii SAW: Barangsiapa berselawat kepadaku 10 kali pada waktu pagi dan 10 kali pada waktu petang tiap hari, ia akan beroleh syaafaatku pada hari kiamat - Hadis Riwayat Thabrani

Demikianlah betapa banyaknya ganjaran bagi orang-orang yang berselawat. Oleh itu, marilah kita perbanyakkan selawat dan salam ke atas baginda Nabi Muhammad Rasulullah s.a.w. Mudah-mudahan kita tergolong dalam orang-orang yang beruntung di dunia dan di akhirat, insya-Allah.

Wallahu a’lam.

Hobby # 1

2009-03-07T16:15:00.000+08:00

I'm sure everyone in this world has their own passion, or maybe passions. Otherwise, life will be such a boring one, don't you think so? What's your passion then?

If you asked me, I think I have not only one passion but a few. For a start, let me just mention one as I don't want to bore you guys to death! Hahaha... Because if I want to ramble, I can do that the whole day!!!! Okay here goes...

Cross stitching....

Fell in love with this hobby ever since my dear friend Salmah in Segamat introduced it to me. The first project of mine was the kalimah Bismillah, in gold thread. It's still there, hanging in my parent's house in Malacca. Since then, I just can't stop. I brought my sewing kit everywhere I go and will sew at any possible second! Would you believe me, most of my big projects were done in the bus. I used to travel by bus when I was working. The ride was like 1 hour to the office and another hour back. So you see, I have lots of time to spare. Rather than let it go to waste, doing nothing, I started stiching. What a lovely time I had and not only that, I made a lot of friends in the bus. Why? Because they are curious how can I stitch in the bus? Won't I get dizzy and stuff like that? So they'll start chatting with me, and Mrs Chatterbox dot Com will happily answer their questions! Hahahaha....

But nowadays, I hardly stitch. My vision is not so 'bionic' as before. At times when I tried stitching, I can see double which makes it difficult to stitch. I have to wear glasses in order to do so. And guess what, Mrs Trying-to-be-Tough, doesn't have glasses of her own! She shares her husband's reading glasses! Hahaha... but hey, they worked well for me, so why waste money on another pair huh? Age must be catching up on me! Huhuhu...tahu.. tak pe!

I used to go crazy over cross stitch books and magazines! When we were in Malawi, there are no bookshops selling cross stitch books and magazines. Everytime we flew to Johannesburg South Africa, the FIRST outlet I'll go to is the bookshop. The moment I approached the magazine stand, I'll feel suffocated! I was just too excited and can't breathe properly. Maybe to you, it's like meeting your heart throb, that kind of feeling! Hahaha. I'll simply grab whatever's available, as if they are giving it out for free! Money is not the problem as hubby understands my passion very well. Infact, he is more willing to pay for what I had chosen rather than what he'd choose. You don't want to know why... so I'll save my breath explaining... hahahaha.... When we were in Malawi, I guess hubby felt pity for me, always flipping through the same magazines over and over again. So he told me to subscribe them and sent them to Malaysia. I was reluctant at first, because it's expensive. But then again, I told myself, I hardly treat myself when in Malawi, so why not grab this opportunity! After all, I didn't ask for it, I was offered! So, yeah, I accepted the offer and not only subscribe to one magazine but FOUR! Then it's my mom's turn to bla bla bla at me! Why subscribe 4 and it's so costly...bla bla bla.... My answer is simple, hubby bought for me. Full stop! So my mom rested her case....hihihi....

I had always wanted to do some charity work with cross stitch but don't really know how. The idea came when I read this article from one of the cross stich magazines. They printed a few Newton chart for us to stitch on the Aida cloth. Just a small piece. If you wish to participate, all you have to do is stitch whichever design you like, then mail it to them or if you're around in UK, you can actually go to the fair and hand over the stitched cloth to them. They'll sew togehter all the Aidas received into patchwork blankets and sell them for a good cost. I think, that time, all the collection were for a Dialysis Centre. Good huh? I wasn't able to participate as I don't have the right threads to sew on. Wish we can do something like this here.............

Fatin's Achievements

2009-03-03T11:41:00.000+08:00

I shed tears again last Saturday when we left Fatin at boarding. Not that it's something new when I said I shed tears as I am quite a 'cry baby'... old baby actually... hahaha....Previously, when we left Fatin, I was much stronger but not this time. Why? Because Fatin waved at us until we're out of sight. Normally she doesn't do that. She'll just 'salam', hug me and will be gone in a split second without even looking back. I just can't hold back my tears! Now I know, I am allergic to people waving at me I guess!!! Before this, it was Syahmi who likes to do that and made the mom 'rains' in the car. And then I remembered, every time we wanted to leave Malacca for KL, I had to hold back my tears when I saw mak waving to us until we're out of sight..... So next time any of you wanted to say good bye to me, please skip the waving gesture ya... susah susahhhhh aje..... ahakss.....

Anyway, that day when we reached Fatin's hostel, we were greeted by a grinning Fatin. She passed me her black sling bag and said, "Mom, I think you're going to love these!" And surely I do! In the sling bag, I dug out 4 medals.....

They had their sports day that morning. Unfortunately I can't make it there to give her some moral support. But my dearest girl managed to get...

Gold for 400m under 18

Silver for 4 x 100m Under 18

Silver for 200m Under 18

Bronze for High jump under 18

She wasn't quite satisfied with her running actually. She told me that she's much better in long distance running. I guess all the hard work and training that they had to go through when they were in Malawi is paying off now. Thanks to all the sports teachers involved!

Speaking of long distance running, before the sports day on Saturday, she was running in Bentong. She represented her school in the MSSM. Came 7th place from 28 runners! Bravo kakak. I am so very very proud of you! It's a big success for her considering that they only trained for about a month plus! I told Fatin, if you can get 7th place, mama is capable of doing the same... but then, mine will be 7th from the bottom! Hahahahahaha.....

CONGRATULATIONS TO MY DEAREST FATIN!

A Small Story

2009-02-17T10:30:00.000+08:00

Since I don't have time or shall I say, idea of how I am going to update this blog, let's just settle for this at the moment. Got this nice article in my email and I'd like to share it with all of you. There's truth in what's said....

Do think about it...

A Small Story...........

A boy and a girl were playing together. The boy had a collection of marbles. The girl had some sweets with her. The boy told the girl that he will give her all his marbles in exchange for her sweets. The girl agreed.

The boy kept the biggest and the most beautiful marble aside and gave the rest to the girl. The girl gave him all her sweets as she had promised.

That night, the girl slept peacefully. But the boy couldn't sleep as he kept wondering if the girl had hidden some sweets from him the way he had hidden his best marble.

Moral of the story:

If you don't give your hundred percent in a relationship, you'll always keep doubting if the other person has given his/her hundred percent.. This is applicable for any relationship like love, friendship, employer-employee relationship etc., Give your hundred percent to everything you do and sleep peacefully.

Abah.......

It is totally not easy to loose somebody whom you love dearly, all your life. But as a Muslim, we have to accept and redha with all that is written. My dad, HAJI AYUB BIN KASMURI, passed away peacefully on the 24th December, 2008 at 9.00 am. He was 73 years old. I, on behalf of my dad, wish to apologise if he had done anything wrong to those who knew him in person and if there is anything that he is still owing to, please contact us, his children or otherwise, please make halaal.

You may have noticed that I am addressing my late dad as MY DAD. It will stay that way forever because to me, my dad lives in my heart forever, until the day I will answer God's call. He was such a nice, loving person and I am not saying this just because he is my dad but that's the truth. You will not only hear this from me, but from almost EVERYBODY who knows him. Oh how I miss you ABAH.....

I am thankful to ALLAH for giving me the chance to be close to my dad for a good one month before he decided to answer ALLAH's call infront of me, Kak Ana and her hubby. That morning, I woke up early and went to check on him. I saw his face was shiny. I was relieved knowing that he's okay as the day before he wasn't well. I prepared rice porridge for his breakfast. At 7.30 am, I woke him up and fed him. Then I gave him his medicine. At 8.50 am, he started to take a deep breath, opened his eyes wide which he hardly does, and that's when I realised that he is in his 'nazak' state. Taught him The Kalimah Syahadah. Called Kak Ana and her hubby and they came to assist my dad. So the three of us was with abah when he took his last breath. He went very peacefully and with ease........smiling.....

The process to get him to his eternal resting place went very smoothly. We had a lot of help not only from those who know us but from strangers as well. All was done before Asr prayers the very same day. Alhamdulillah.

I wish to thank EVERYONE who had helped us until my dad was laid to rest. Thank you to Kak Ana and hubby for staying with me and my dad during his last moments. Thanks to my hubby's cousin, Abang Man and wife, my neighbour, Ita and family and my cyber friend Zai and daughters for staying with me at the Masjid Al Falah where my dad is being bathed and kaffan. Thank you to Kak Liza who had announced the sad news in her fotopage and to all who had done the same. To those who sent me condolences smses, thank you so much for all your duaas... Amin amin ya rabbal alamin...And not forgetting all the condolences wishes left in my fotopage. Thank you thank you thank you. Your words had helped us a lot during our grief. May Allah blessed all of you.....

Al-Fatihah for my ABAH.....

Taubat

2009-02-06T15:02:00.000+08:00

Wahai Tuhan ku tak layak ke syurgaMu
Namun tak pula aku sanggup ke nerakaMu

Ampunkan dosaku terimalah taubatku
Sesungguhnya Engkaulah pengampun dosa-dosa besar

Dosa-dosaku bagaikan pepasir di pantai
Dengan rahmatMu ampunkan daku…..
Oh Tuhanku

Wahai Tuhan selamatkan kami ini
Dari segala kejahatan dan kecelakaan
Kami takut kami harap kepadaMu
Suburkanlah cinta kami kepadaMu

Kamilah hamba yang mengharap belas dariMU
