women and aurah

guys also have their aurah to cover and conceal but im just talking about gals here...

I came across this blog and are very touched with the articles(got 4 parts) and it makes me realize that i'm very bless to be born in Islam. Alhamdulillah. If otherwise, will i be able to search Islam, like she did or will i be another human being that just too focus on the world and living the world to the fullest and being naive on the real purpose of human on the earth and neglected totally on the subject of religion. Thinking of the possibility makes me shivers.

Then i continue my blog hopping and reach another blog whom the writer is a born muslim and the article make me feel ashame and remind myself of the time when i'm just as ignorant as she is. I didn't know my own religion before and i don't even read the quran's translation to understand the content and command of Allah s.w.t. Of course i read the arabic quran but i don't understand it coz i don't speak arabic. Only after reading the translation and recently watching usrah regarding tafsir Al quran from Dr. Fatimah Az-Zahra that i really feel my religion, i feel god and i see its truth.
Every now and then whenever i read anything about Islam, i feel different from before. I feel something rather than before i feel nothing. I guess then was the time when i was far from god. I'm glad to hear that one step or effort anyone make to get closer to Allah s.w.t., HE will take seven steps to get close to you. Subhanallah. I am glad that its not to late for me.

Back to the 2nd article i read, its about skinny jeans. Well skinny jeans really hung tight to your legs and it will definitely not hide anything from other people. Please we should not only cover our aurah but also keep it concealed by wearing something looser. If you can't cover your aurah the right way, please don't go to the very end of the wrong way, especially if you are wearing a hijab/tudung/headscarf. Be somewhere in a middle, do yourself a favour by maximising your step to Allah s.w.t. instead of doing worthless things like choosing skinny jeans over other looser jeans just for fashion sake, and denying doing things for Allah s.w.t. Remember that we live in this world for our akhirat the hereafter and not to enjoy our brain off in this world. Muslim should know that being close to Allah s.w.t. and heaven is sooooooooo much better than any joy and happiness in the world. Actually nothing in this world can be compared to Allah swt grace and heaven.

The common statement i heard from those who didn't feel like covering their aurah was because they are not ready and they didn't want to be insincere when covering their aurah. Astaghfirullah. How naive. It is not that they are not ready but they don't really know their religion, they don't feel Allah s.w.t. Logically speaking, how can you let yourself not concealing your aurah just due to insincerity yet willingly object to what Allah swt command us to do, in a way you are saying that I know better than Allah swt and commit sin. We often focus on what Allah swt command us to do yet rarely do we focus and appreciate on what Allah swt do for us and gives us. The cloth we wear, the money we have, the eyes, ears, a pair of working legs and hands, fingers, good family, husband, children, air to breath and many many many other things. The list will never end to count the things Allah swt gives and will later rewards us even more yet HE ask only a little from us.

Mosque is god's house


Women in menstruation are not allowed to enter the mosque-praying area!!!!!!!
(Read from an article from local newspaper)

I am shocked!!!!!Super shock like electric shock or like being stroke by lightning....

I have entered the praying area like a million times before while in menstruation.
My ustazah would just often reminded us to take good care so that our period does not stain the carpet of the mosque as they must keep it clean to be able to perform the solah/shalat/prayer there and has never forbid us girls during our period from entering the mosque.

So girls just be responsible and make sure that
(1.) Duuuh wear a new sanitary pad
(2.) Sit properly
(3.) Always make sure that no leakage while in the mosque....
If you are having a heavy period then better for you not to visit the mosque, obviously because we should care for the mosque cleanness......

Second shocker>>>>Non-Muslim also cannot enter the mosque-praying area as being categorize as in the same category of women in menstruation

I read many revert/convert stories that their visit to the mosque to watch the performing of prayers often plays a significant role in knowing the religion better. As seeing is believing, this will later open their mind and heart to Islam even more. So we should welcome them and not shoo them away. That is rude. I see no harm for them to visit the mosque except for Masjidil Haram but of course we the Muslim should educate them on the proper etiquette of visiting mosque to our non-Muslim brothers and sisters. It is our responsibility and them being ignorant of the proper manner is definitely our fault.

Whether you are a Muslim or not, we all should maintain the purity of the mosque and do nothing that will jeopardize it. Mosque is after all god's house. We are just Allah's guest and thus act like a guest and not like the host.

When I have enough cash, I will definitely build my own mosque that has superb facilities like hostels, public kitchen, sports facilities, libraries, classes and halls for all to use Muslim or non-Muslim.

Maid in Manhattan

Well not really, more like a maid in Malaysia....

The many complaints i heard about the maids and the problems they give their employer really get my head cracking to find a solution to it...

Or at least a thought that worth a try....

Fortunately i don't have one to suffer from the countless problems other faced....

I rather hire a cleaner lady for the upkeep of my house, send out my laundry to laundry shop, send my kids to kindergarten/nursery(which i don't have but better option is not to have one at the first place or at least have them when you can afford the kindergarten fees) and for the food you can always buy it from outside....

Love the great superB man and woman

who????
the lovely man and woman of the police force, soldiers, fireman, paramedics, teachers and lots more that just slip my mind rite now...........

unfortunately i don't think that they are getting enough for their paycheck...how can they provide their services properly if they got other worries playing in their heads like the financial woes...

Taking the policeman as an example, we frequently heard that they asked for duit kopi and what not...if it is true, i believe the only main reason they did that is because of the problem of low income...but of course it is still wrong regardless of reasons.

the main point is that they should be getting lot more than they are paid now....

Devotion vs Oppression

the issue of hijab has always been heavily debated and most would always criticize it by saying that it is a sign of inequality and how the hijabi are being pressured to wear them. This is the article that made me write this post.

the funny thing is that most comment, opinion and debate came from those that don't even wear it and not even muslim. The comments given are as if they are a seasoned hijabi but in fact they never worn it before.

Acting as if they know better, they try their very best to ban it in school, offices and other places. This is a nuisance to us hijabi when their action create a difficult situation for us that eventually itself is a way of inequality and oppression.

Please open your eyes and heart, the hijab worn will definitely not be forced on you and it is our own choice to wear it so don't act on our behalf to protect and save us from this "delusional oppression" when we don't ask for it. Instead, what we ask is to give us our right to wear it freely without being look down at and being judged.

Why can an individual walk down the street half naked freely without any discrimination and harassment while an individual that is covered can't be treated the same?


Everybody would be very familiar with the dressing of a nun. A hijabi and a nun both wear a covered and modest clothing yet they claimed that a nun way of dressing is a sign of devotion while a hijabi is an oppression. Where is the logic? Wearing hijab is one of the command of god. He creates us thus he knows better on how we should be living and in this case wear.

This poor lady died because of the hatred that have been built in the mentality of the society towards hijab. But her death is not a waste because insyallah she will be very happy in the hereafter. When we die, it is not the end but it is the start of the "real living", "real life". Living in this world is not the real life but the real life is in the hereafter. The world is just a place where our iman is being tested and those who do good will succeed and live happily in heaven that is like a gazillion times better than this world. This world is like a pit stop before we reach our real destination.

Some muslim cover their aurat and some not, which one is better? Only god knows. But what I can say is that when Allah s.w.t. laid out the rules and what not, we should do our very best to follow it as he is our creator. He creates us thus he is way way way wayyyyyy smarter than us so doing otherwise is not wise and are we in a way trying to say that we are smarter than our creator.Naudhubillah.

when i look at you

Another song that keeps me wide awake while I'm studying ......

when i look at you by miley cyrus

Everybody needs inspiration,
Everybody needs a song
A beautiful melody
When the nights so long

Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy...

Yea when my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I...
I look at you

When the waves
Are flooding the shore and I can't
Find my way home anymore
That's when I, I...
I look at you

When I look At You I see forgiveness
I see the truth
You love me for who I am
Like the stars Hold the moon
Right there where they belong
And I Know I'm Not Alone.

Yea when my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I...
I look at you

When the waves
Are flooding the shore and I can't
Find my way home anymore
That's when I, I...
I look at you

You appear just like a dream to me
Just like Kaleidoscope colors that
Cover Me, All I need every
Breath that I breathe don't you know
You're beautiful...

Yea Yea Yea

When the waves
Are flooding the shore and I can't
Find my way home anymore
That's when I, I...
I look at you
I look at you

Yea Yea Oh OH OH

And you appear Just like a dream
To me.

will i ever make it home???

i can't get it out of my mind, out of my head, out of my system,,,,,

Will I Ever Make It Home


I woke up from my sleep to the sound of that voice
From the words that I heard I had no choice
They told me I had to turn around
My assurance slowly faded down
And I wonder

Will I ever make it home
Will I ever leave the ground
Leave this place so far behind

The plans that I had were quickly destroyed
The problem was one I couldn't avoid
They welcomed me to stay overnight
I'm too tired to complain so i just might
And I wonder

Will I ever make it home
To the place I recognize
Far from here and where I've been
And all the places that I've been shown
Will I ever make it home
Can they keep me here for good
Where I hardly know a soul
And my fear keeps going on

My weariness keeps growing inside
My patience is tarting to subside
And I hope I'll be there soon
It can't be long or I'll fall through

Will I ever make it home
Will I ever leave the ground
Leave this place so far behind
Till ther eis no turning back
Will I ever make it home
Get to where I wanna be
Find the ones who wait for me
To the place where I belong
Will I ever make it home


Another great song from Ingram Hill that i loooveeee>>>>

"On My Way"

I don't want your old letters
And I don't want to be friends
I've had enough to last a lifetime
and I don't wanna go again
I don't have to find a reason
And I don't have to answer why
It doesn't matter who is wrong here
I just wanna see you cry

And on my way I'll take the sunshine
On my way I'll take your dreams
On my way I'll say I'm sorry to no one but me

Let your family know I'm leavin
Lie to your girlfriends that you're well
Call and leave a cryin' message
I wanna know it hurts like hell

And on my way I'll take the sunshine
on my way I'll take your dreams
On my way I'll say I'm sorry to no one but me
On my way I'll be my own man
And I'll only please myself
On my way my pride's the only feeling I've got left
