My 2013 Eid Al-Adha story

Yesterday, I arrived in Kota Bharu and at first, I thought it would be okay for me to stay back, celebrating Eid in Kelantan but then I realized every single one of my housemates were going back to their respective hometown and then I thought, oh hey, I am sooo screwed~ 

I started to panic because my residential area is not really that safe. We had our house broken in once in which I am glad that I was not living there yet at that time when it happened. So I did what any sane person would do; sleep it off.

But of course I learned since long ago that sleeping wasn't going to solve anything so I thought of a plan. Before you think I am downright insane, let me inform you that the reason that I didn't extend my holiday is because I have class on Sunday, which stands in between my previous holiday and the current Eidul Adha break. So yeah.

So I packed up my bag and went to the first bus ticket counter I could find and ask them about the night's ticket. I was so relieved when he told me that there's one ticket someone just sold them and yeah, I really feel Allah helping me. Before I went, I prayed that He gave me guidance, whether or not my coming home would be best for me and there you go, I got my answer right on the spot. 

Alhamdulillah 'ala kulli hal. 

Salam Eid Al-Adha everyone, and may we be able to severe our attachments other than our attachment to Allah as the prophet Ibrahim a.s severed his attachment with his son, Ismail a.s. InshaAllah.

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...

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 ...
