Salam Eid Al-Fitri everyone!

In the name of Allah,
Most Gracious, Most Merciful,
Praise be to Allah,
the Cherisher and Sustainer of the Worlds,
and Peace and Prayer be upon the Final Prophet and Messenger. Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Quran

InshaAllah in a few hours time I'll be on the bus to Kamunting, Perak. I am going to celebrate the first few days in Bagan Serai at my keluarga angkat's place until the 23rd where I'll leave Bagan Serai for KL until the 25th.

InshaAllah my akad nikah will be on the 26th of August/ 8th of Shawwal. Pray so that we will be able to fulfill one of the mitsaqan ghaliza, that is the marriage, as quoted from Muhammad Fauzil Adhim in his book Kupinang Engkau dengan Hamdalah,


" Menikah merupakan sunnah yang diagungkan oleh Allah. Al-Quran menyebut pernikahan sebagai mitsaqan ghaliza (perjanjian yang sangat berat). Mitsaqan ghaliza adalah nama dari perjanjian yang paling kuat di hadapan Allah. Hanya tiga kali Al-Quran menyebut mitsaqan ghaliza. Hanya untuk tiga perjanjian Allah menyebut mitsaqan ghaliza. Dua perjanjian berkenaan tauhid, yaitu perjanjian Allah dengan bani Israel yang untuk itu Allah mengangkat Bukit Thursina ketika mengambil sumpah. Sedang yang lain adalah perjanjian Allah dengan para nabi ulul azmi, Nabi yang paling utama antara para Nabi. Dan, pernikahan oleh Allah termasuk yang digolongkan sebagai mitsaqan ghaliza. Allah menjadi saksi ketika seseorang melakukan akad nikah. Wallahua'lam bishawab."



4:21
Dan bagaimana kamu tergamak mengambil balik pemberian itu padahal kasih mesra kamu telah terjalin antara satu dengan yang lain dan mereka pula (isteri-isteri kamu itu) telahpun mengambil perjanjian yang kuat(mitsaqan ghaliza) daripada kamu?
[An-Nisa' : 21]

So yeah, when everyone was like so excited for me, I can't help but worry because those words from the book keep on reminding me that I need to be sooo prepared for this. Anyways, inshaAllah, if Allah gives me this so it means I can do this. I can do thiissssss!!! (ok tetiba hyper. abaikan.)

So, alhamdulillah, Ramadhan's nearly over and Eid's coming. With that I present to you a lousily edited virtual 'kad raya' like what I did last year. ( but this year's photo a bit different since I just started wearing braces and uh, I'm wearing my white coat and an old school spectacle which did an amazing job of making me look kinda goofy =_= )


Note: Yeap, the card's only valid for a few days. Heh


So yeah, Happy Eid guys, and salam alaikum ~

We have to believe He does."

My dad's turn

because ALLAH is with me.... Earlier today i was shocked by a text message sent to me from one of my aunt from my dad's side. "Why didn't you tell me that you've become a Muslim? Sampai hati tak bagitau, bukan perkara tak baik pun." This raised a question mark in my head. Who told her? She's a Muslim by the way. Then onwards, after a few exchanging text messages, i finally come to a realization. I have to tell my dad before he found out from someone else. That would be worst. So, i started to type on my cellphone. "Daddy, i've become a Muslim. Ever since i'm at KTT. I am telling you via sms so that you will be clear of why i am doing this and so that you will not hear this from other people who might exaggerate the story. I didn't become a Muslim because i have a boyfriend. Not because i was influenced by my friends. And also not because i wanted to join PAS. But because i have taken interest in Islam ever since i'm at...

Mummy

Finally, after 1 and a half years(maybe more), the truth is out. I confessed to my mum about me being a Muslim. When I first told her, she was upset and angry. She asked me: Who influenced you into being one? Did u have a boyfriend? Who converted you? Did you know that it’s a big sin to convert when you are already baptized?! I was silent all the while she was bombarding me with her questions but Alhamdulillah, I feel calm and unmoved. I didn’t feel guilty at all. So I told her, Mummy, nobody forced me to become one. No, that is not the reason I become a Muslim. Do you notice that I’ve become more closer to you since past one and a half years?  And my mum said yes, you’ve become better but still… Then I said, it is because of Islam that I changed from my old ways. I used to yell at you but since I became a Muslim, I learned how to be better, to appreciate my parents better. And then she said something I expected she would say. No wonder you didn’t pass your ...

A revert's thoughts on LGBTQ

First of all, what does LGBTQ stands for?  L = lesbian G = gay B = bisexual T = transgender Q = queer I am pretty sure everyone's familiar with the first 4 sexual orientation but what about the last one? Queers are people who are not sure of their own sexual identity.  So what does it mean to belong to the 5 sexual orientation? Let's just assume I am secretly a lesbian. So how would you react to that?  Do you judge me?  Or do you accept me as I am? I got married with a man and have 2 kids as a result of the marriage, there's nothing wrong with that isn't it? I am doing nothing wrong despite having an against the fitrah inclination towards the same sex.  It will only become wrong if they chose to act on their sexual orientation.  They claim that the sexual orientation is a result of nature and nothing can be done to change it. Like in a transgender's case, they think that "God made a mistake and switched their ge...
