Ahlan wa Sahlan Ya Ramadhan!!!

Ahlan wa sahlan ya Ramadhan!!! Ramadhan... Satu nasib tak serupa Peluangnya sama Najitah berbeza Ramadhan mereka gemilang cemerlang Mukmin berjasa di awal zaman Ramadhan kami parah terbuang Muslim berdosa di akhir zaman Mereka gembira kerana kedatanganmu Kami gembira dengan pemergianmu Malam mereka meriah di simbah nur al-Qur'an Tapi malam kami muram berkabung dengkur Mereka berlumba mengejar maghfirah Tapi kami lesu diburu nafsu Hati mereka bercahaya digilap taqwa Jiwa kami gelap didera dosa Takbir mereka takbir kemenangan Hadiah mujahadah sebulan Ramadhan Takbir kami lesu tak bermaya Tanda kalah lemah tak berdaya Puasa sekadar lapar dan dahaga . 1 Ramadhan 1427 Earlier that morning, the last day of Sha'ban, I attended a crash-course with other ADNI Alumni members, aimed to switch me to a higher gear for me to start my journey through the blessed month... "The Science of Sawm-ar-Ramadhan" was the topic. We discussed about the preparation for Ramadhan, fi...

Riding For Life...

Tiba-tiba saya teringat yang saya masih belum bercerita tentang horseback riding... Antara sukan yang saya sangat hargai adalah menunggang kuda. Saya belajar menungang kuda sejak berusia 14 atau 15 tahun... Erm... Saya tak berapa ingat... Tetapi saya hanya menunggang seminggu sekali buat seketika, dan akan berhenti buat seketika juga, mungkin dalam beberapa bulan, dan meneruskan semua sukan yang sangat menyeronokkan ini. Jadi, riding skills saya tidaklah begitu baik kerana tidak istiqamah. Ada rakan saya tertanya-tanya kenapa riding memenatkan (kerana saya sering tidur awal jika petang itu saya menunggang kuda) sedangkan saya hanya menunggang kuda, bukannya kuda yang menunggang saya. Saya mengukir senyum lebar menampakkan barisan gigi saya yang sudah tidak berbesi ketika itu. Ya, hanya ketika itu, kerana saya hanya boleh membuka retainer saya selama tiga hari. Jika lebih dari itu, gusi saya akan terasa sakit yang teramat sangat. Untuk pengetahuan semua, menunggang kuda adalah lebih mem...

9 September 2006 - Remember This Date

Subhanallah I had a brand-new day today ^_^ Anyways, Had HOPE's post-mortem today. Inside me, I actually got upset with the impuncuality (is this the right word?) of many, esp the VIP! Huhu... The meeting don't just start an hour late but more than that! I won't elaborate further... My point is: can anyone give me some tips on "how to train others to be punctual, besides you yourself showing a good example" ??? Give me a list if you need to. Credits to Nwa for accompanying your 'sumber inspirasi' for dinner this evening with her best-est pal and to Alan too for coming a very long way to deliver some cool nasyeeds and songs to me apart from meeting with your VIP. Hehe... Guys, some of you might be wondering what am I talking about. Don't tell me, but I'll tell you... I tend to mix around with different groups of friends so you gotta bear with postings you don't get to understand. And that this is MY blog, I'll write anything I want. Thank...

short stories to be shared...

*** Story 1 *** My 11-year-old brother Musa have this habit of hiding behind a wall, waiting for his 'prey' to come near and he'll jump out, surprising that person. One evening when my dad, Musa and I were having dinner, Raneem came into the house and headed towards the dining hall. Musa quickly got up, ready to scare her. But in no time, Raneem appeared and surprised Musa instead, with her cute "huaarggghh" with hands up in the air. Musa jumped, and fell onto the floor, very surprised, not expecting a two-year-old girl to scare him... End of Story 1 *** Story 2 *** I was focusing on my work when, Nadiah, my childhood friend, mentioned something very true. "Kite rase kan, awak ni macam ayah awak. Suka cakap 'ha' je utk reply orang bila busy." I paused, processing the statement in my brain. Yes. Abah use to just reply "Ha" "M'mm" or simply just nod in agreement if he's focusing on something when his child(ren) interfere...

A glimpse - HOPE: Palestine Revisited

HOPE HOPE HOPE AllahuAkbar! The programme went on great! Feel sorry for those who couldn't make it - whatever their reason(s) are... Hmm... The day started out pretty hectic actually. I promised the others to bertolak dari rumah at 7:15 a.m., but I woke up at 7 a.m.! Thanks to the "message memory full" single, one-second beep ^_^'. So everyone can conclude that I reached PWTC late, together with four of those who came with me. I drove the only car from Ampang (others slept at PanPac Hotel) and had to be quite a runner in the morning... Anyways, . . The first slot was by Dr. Daud Abdullah from the UK. A presentation titled "Understanding The Conflict" , Dr. Daud covered a wide range of topic - from how the issue started and it's agonizing growth, until the present situation... He also mentioned something very interesting. Palestine, which was suppose to offer the Jews who refused assimilation the most secure place has turned out to be the most dangerous p...
