As the new school year is starting, I am honestly feeling quite edgy about how things are going to be but however, I gotta keep the positive vibe within myself and with the people around me. This made me thought about how do I keep myself always motivated and be in good mental health throughout the 2020/2021 academic year? </span><div><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">One night, I was scrolling on my Pinterest and found this interesting app called Fabulous. Click on the logo if you want to install it from Play Store.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.thefabulous.app&hl=en" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><img alt="fabulous – NoxPlayer" height="200" src="https://www.bignox.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Fab.png" width="200"></span></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">I found this app amazing! That's about it. These are simply the reasons why.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><ol style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">Firstly, it will ask you what do you want to achieve? What are your goals? What habits do you want to have now to improve yourself? What would you like to focus on? Is it health? Work? Weight loss? So you may choose which type of goal that you would like to achieve. </span>Basically, you will be given tasks or challenges to achieve your goals.</li><li><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">Secondly, the user interface is really neat and nice. </span></li><li>Just amazing! I do not think I should say more.</li></ol></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">However, in spite of how amazing the app is , the main downside for me about this app is the price. Unfortunately, I have decided to uninstall it because of how costly it is but if you are someone who does not know where to spend your money on, this app is worth the price :D</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">I am currently using another app called <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.MyDreams.MyDreams&hl=en" target="_blank">My Dreams</a> in order to improve myself and to make sure I have good mental and physical health. So far, it made me started a gratitude journal where I will write three good things that I am grateful daily. Hopefully, I will be able to write more than three on some good days. Other than writing down your goals, reflecting on what went well and how can you improve, why not write from the little things to the biggest things that you are grateful for each day? I call the journal 'My Piece of Gratitude' journal. So far I am feeling a lot of positivity and hopefully I can go through this year smoothly. Okay , that is all for now. Buh bye .</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br></div>Lilianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17836182809297468169noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2722351982510394559.post-91252820518045538322020-08-15T21:40:00.002-07:002020-08-16T08:58:32.364-07:00New Interest : Plants<div>Hello !

</div><br /></div><div>🤷🏽♀️So how I started this new interest?</div><div>I was cleaning my room then I found my old mini terrarium bowl was left unattended with a few pebbles and soil in it. My plants died in 2018 cause I left them for a week during the Horizons Trip and forgot to tell my mom to water it everyday as it was the type that needs to be watered daily called Fittonia. Then I just stopped getting any new plants and focused on feeding stray cats.</div><div><br /></div><div>Right , let's go back to my mini terrarium bowl again. So I got it cleaned then I thought what should I do with it? Should I get new plants? Then I remembered that I have a colleague who is a <i>phytophilous</i> ( a person who is fond of plants) and she always post her plants stories and pictures on Instagram . Sometimes her posts made me feel like I want to have plants but let's wait and wait cause I do not want them to die in my hands again. </div><div><br /></div><div>Then I texted the friend whom I have mentioned above and asked what plant is the best to put in this mini bowl? (Cause I was thinking of getting only one plant). Then she said "let's go to a plant nursery this Saturday." I agreed to that and brought these lovelies home 💕 .</div><div><br /></div><div>We went to two plant nurseries that day and I feel so excited seeing my plants growing. New school year is starting in September. I feel excited but a bit nervous together and hopefully my plants will help me feel calm and relax when I look at them in my good and stressful days.</div><div><br /></div><div>Follow me on my plant Instagram account </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>

Last year I went to Taman Negara, Pahang and it was a great relaxing experience! This post is just an update with some pictures from my adventurous trip to Bintan this year! I had an amazing experience with students and colleagues. Too busy to type too much. Probably will update this post during summer break. Ciao for now. (might as well just don't post anything here right?) Youtube video in progress. Probably after I've finished with school stuff. Busy busy busy. Just enjoy the pictures. Actually, I may or I may not update this post again =P</div>

Feels good to be back and this is my first post of 2017. I've been saving this post in draft and finally decided to post it today.<br />
<br />
Last year , me and my cousin were planning to go on a trip without our parents for the first time and yeah booked our ticket in February 2016 also chose Trip Adik Beradik to be our tourist guide in Osaka , JAPAN !<br />
<b><br /></b> <b>8th October 2016</b><br />
<br />
We took a flight to KLIA2 at 8.55 pm and arrived at 9.55 p.m...Something unexpectedly happened which my luggage went totally Kaput! ha ha ha . The wheel was missing and I was quite panicked because my next flight to Osaka was in the next three hours. Luckily , one of the airport's officer saw the damage and she said "You should report it to the Lost and Found department right over there" and showed me the direction to the Lost and Found department.<br />
<br />
One of the Officers checked on my documents and the damage on the luggage. He said "Okay, we'll replace the bag" Yay ! What a relief and....<br />
<br />
Ta.Daaaa... my new luggage ! So much bigger , stronger , unbreakable and most importantly , it's <span style="color: magenta;">NEON PINK.</span> Thank you <a href="http://www.airasia.com/my/en/home.page?cid=1" target="_blank"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Air Asia</span></a> !<br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Assalamualaikum... In this entry I would like to introduce my pets . I have never had a pet before in my twenty-four years of life ! I do not count fishes as mine because only my parents are interested in fishes nor grasshoppers that I used to catch during primary school. Rabbits and cats are always my favorite animals that I would like to keep as a pet but my mother has asthma and she does not like any furry pets to be kept at home.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> So here I am going to tell you about my </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;">RED</span> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">EARED SLIDER TURTLES </b>or<b style="color: #6aa84f;"> RES </b>for short</span><span style="color: #6aa84f; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">.</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I wanted a tortoise but tortoises are wayyyyy more expensive than turtles. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I bought these turtles for only RM 8 each at the nearest pet store.. I have looked up online the price of Tortoises can reach hundreds which I would not afford that! So yeah turtles are cute too why not ? So I got myself three little turtles . One male and two females in gender.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Even though RES are cheap in price but it is going to cost a lot if you want to provide a semi-aquatic habitat for them. I don't setup a tank yet for them ( bad mama) but doing anything the in the cheapest way possible. Like instead of getting a uvb light , I let them out under the sunlight once in a while for 15 minutes or so. I'm planning to set up a tank sooner or later. For now , I've been referring to these two blogs <b><a href="http://www.red-eared-sliders.com/caring.html" target="_blank"><i>red-eared-sliders.com</i></a> </b>and<i> </i><b><i><a href="https://kamekroten.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">kamekroten</a></i> . </b>The way they handle their turtles are quite different than other people.</span><br />

<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span><b style="font-style: italic;">" Allah will not take something away from us unless He has provided something way much better or beneficial for us . Trust and believe in Allah's promises. " - </b>Felinna Nadea Ed Fatah.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I was reading the quotes from the book "Hijrah Ini Yang Aku perlu" (This is the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hijra_(Islam)" target="_blank">hijrah</a> that I need) and I found this on page 106 and it struck me right away. How come I did not realize this is the reason why Allah took something away from me? The more I ask for it to stay , the more it turns away from me. I did ask signs from Allah , "If this is good for me , make it work . If this is bad for me , show me signs real quick. " Ahamdulillah , I did see the signs real quick but however it made me depressed because it does not work the way I expected it to be.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well , in the beginning , this was all my fault. I did not expect less this time because I thought that is it! This is what I've been waiting for!!! </span><span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After what happened , I've realized that things happen for a reason. Maybe it is because of this reason quoted from Quran </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>"</i></span></span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah Knows, while you know not." <span style="color: blue;">2:216</span>.</i></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"><i><br /></i></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"> In spite of what has happened , I really appreciate the good that came out of it . Well , anyway I'm not gonna discuss about the good things now. Maybe later? Back to the quote above, I've realized this is the main reason why it happened . It is surely because Allah has something better for me in the future. I must believe this and in Shaa Allah , I will not be disappointed. We don't always get what we want because sometimes what we want is somehow something that is probably more inferior than what Allah has provided for us because we deserve more maybe? Right? </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"> Alhamdulillah , I have started to accept this with an open heart and it makes me feel fortunate to be tested this way. Alhamdulillah. I thank Allah a lot for keep teaching me lessons in life . I've learned from my mistakes and every time I make mistakes , Allah will always help me to rise again. He never abandoned me. He never did.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thank you<span style="color: magenta;"> </span><span style="color: purple; font-weight: bold;">Allah</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span>for all the blessings on us. I do love this country even though sometimes I feel like I wanna get out of this place mainly because of the weather and the people here but it's not that bad though. Maybe I am just tired of the politics issues that are unsolved. Nevertheless , I hope eventually everything will be alright...

<h1 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center;">
<br /></h1>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black;">Marriage is never an easy thing. We think of it as this amazing romantic bliss that we will somehow attain one day.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Sisters dream of marrying that amazing brother who has the character of the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam), the Eemaan of Aboo Bakr, the courage of Hamzah, the wealth of ‘AbdiRahmaan bin ‘Awf but the fact still remains, everyone wants to marry that one truly amazing person and it is not much different for guys.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">We wish to bump into a Hoor al-‘Een that has lost her way from Jannah. I mean why wouldn’t that ever happen? It won’t happen, because you are daydreaming bro that’s why.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Now wake up and listen to this short lesson in some important “Do’s and Dont’s” along with other useful information inshaaAllaah.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
#8 AVOID FACEBOOK SPOUSES</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">And any other social network for that matter</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Since we spend most of our time online these days, it is very easy to try to fulfil all our needs online, even the need of finding a soul mate. Now don’t get me wrong, there are marriages who actually do work out, and I am not by any means hating on brothers and sisters who made it work (whatever floats your boats akhis and ukthis, just keep it halaal), but let’s face it, the Internet is a very weird place.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Everyone always tries to seem holier than they really are, even a Kaafir could pretend to be Muslim scholar for all you know. In the good old days people married other people who they actually knew, and life was much more smooth, in very broad terms.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">But today you marry someone who comes across as religious online only to find out on your wedding night he isn’t really that strict on Salah, oh and did I mention he has tons of friends who just happen to be girls? And not to mention he smokes (sorry forgot to tell you that too, my bad) the point is, be very careful concerning ANY online proposals.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">If the person is serious and a good guy, drop them your wali’s number and don’t communicate with them anymore, then you’ll know if the person is really a gentleman or not.</span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
#7 BEFRIEND GOOD PEOPLE</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Looks more and more promising</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">This will open up the door for networking later on, because one of the main problems today is that a lot of people ask, ‘OK but how do I meet good potential spouses?’ and they often say ‘I don’t know anyone!’ but in reality everyone knows SOMEBODY.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Be it that friend who you only seem to meet at the masjid for big events, or your cousin who you don’t spend much time with, there is always someone you can befriend. But keep in mind that these individuals should be good practising people themselves because then they can help introduce you to other practising people who in turn might have brothers and sisters who are looking for marriage.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Trust me, it works. Try it for yourselves and see, but just don’t become that one sister (or brother) who ALWAYS talks about marriage and the opposite gender, because chances are you might get labelled as “thirsty” if not worse.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">And if that fails, there is always facebook.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
#6 BE AT GOOD PLACES</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Do not confuse booty call material for wifey material</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">In the same way that you won’t find your amazing virgin niqabi wife at the club, dancing late into the night. You, yourself need to be looking in the right places, and this sort of brings us back to the previous point.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Attend lectures, study circles or maybe even volunteer to help at the masjid etc, all these activities will open up the door for you to meet the right people and once you get to know them you can raise the issue of marriage discreetly.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Remember most people who marry will tell you they got to know their spouse either through family and friends, or they might have actually met whilst doing the same activities, so try to be more active and don’t just sit at home feeling sorry for yourself. Oh and also stop going to the club.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">DISCLAIMER: This website does not endorse any talking between the genders without the supervision of a Wali. Be a man and step up your game if you truly love her. Otherwise go to facebook.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="color: #cc0000;">#5 BE REALISTIC</span></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Sometimes your knight in shining armour is just a miskeen dude in tin foil</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Chances are, you’re not going to bump into Shaikh Sudais’s son, let alone the Shaikh himself, and even if you did, I highly doubt any of them would ask you for marriage (more like ‘SECURITY!’) So try to keep your hopes realistic, yes we all want to marry a Haafidh, we all want a sister who knows all about pleasing a husband but never had a boyfriend before. We all want a brother who is super pious with super long beard (the longer the beard the bigger the Taqwa right?) who also owns a house and has a car, plus he should be really knowledgeable too, like bin baaz knowledgeable, preferably not blind though, oh and a six pack wouldn’t harm either.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">But we often forget, that when you marry someone, they still have their whole life ahead of them. Most of the wives of the major scholars married these amazing men whilst they still were ‘nobodies’ and similarly you teach your wife (with gentleness) how to be romantic and it is all a journey. If you think that you will marry that one complete person who has everything, you will never marry and that’s the harsh truth.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">You will end up on facebook surfing from one profile to the other.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
#4 INVOLVE YOUR PARENTS</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">I mean at least this brother has his own house, so that’s always a plus right?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Most people don’t like doing this, for whatever reason. Most girls are just simply too shy to bring marriages up to their parents, in case the parents look at them as “horny” or a victim of teenage hormones. Others are afraid that if they involve the parents they will feel pressured into marrying someone they don’t want to marry, only to please their parents.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">You remember that one time your friend mentioned to HER parents that she wanted to get married? And for her parents to help her look for a decent brother? And how they totally misunderstood her and now you heard that your friend moved back to Bangladesh and has 7 kids at the age of 21? Yeah that’s totally not going to happen to you.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Now what I am suggesting is a middle path. Bring the topic up to your parents, or if you’re too shy, speak to your brother or someone else who can raise the issue with your parents. And then ask your parents to look around for you, remember they can only suggest but the final decision still lies with you. And most of us really don’t make use of this option, which is very sad.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Our parents are the only human beings alive on the face of this earth who would do anything and everything for us, so why not consult them?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
#3 ARE YOU REALLY READY FOR MARRIAGE?</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Believe it or not brothers, marriage is more than just mating and lying in bed. Shocking I know!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">I don’t mean to scare you away by raising this question, as Muslims we should always aim to get married since it is the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">But sometimes, some people rush into marriage. They think just because they are physically ready (have urges etc) that they should get married, forgetting that even the Prophet actually mentioned that those who have the MEANS to get married should do so. Now having the means is not just having a mature body, or even loads of cash. Rather it also about being mentally stable and able to cope with the hardships of marriage.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Don’t worry though, in marriage all you need is love to make things work (like they always say right?) so no need to over think things, love conquers all! Except that’s a total lie, marriage needs so much more, and even though love is a key element in marriage it is not always what keeps a marriage going.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Remember marriage is not all sunshine and fun, sometimes you will argue sometimes you wont love each other as much, what will happen then? Will you ask for a divorce just because the marriage isn’t fun anymore?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">What if there are children involved, then what? The point is, prepare yourself for marriage mentally. Read up on the rights of the Husband and the rights of the Wife, don’t just marry because you’re 20 and feel you have to. This husband will be either your Jannah or Hell, do you really know what that means?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Similarly this wife and future children will be your responsibility as a husband, Allaah will ask you about them and everything they do, so be prepared.</span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
#2 WOULD YOU MARRY YOURSELF?</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Because that is how I roll</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">‘Ofcourse I would, I am pure awesomeness, I am the very defin…’ if that is your answer then I can tell you right now that you don’t really have the right mentality for marriage. We often get blinded by the search for the ultimate partner that we neglect to look at ourselves.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">We cry and say why won’t anyone marry me? But do nothing to change ourselves. How do you treat people when you get upset? What do you do if you hold a grudge? Do not turn a blind eye to all these important issues, rather tackle them one by one. No one is perfect but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be trying.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">If you truly and sincerely work on your own flaws, and really do become more caring and loving then you will notice how people will look at you differently. People will start to think of you as ‘wifey’ material because you are good with kids, because you care for others, because you forgive people and don’t hold grudges don’t gossip etc the list is long but if you take one step at a time you will be married before you know it.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Well you would know of it, ’cause I mean you couldn’t get married without knowing about it, right? So technically you would know about it, but yeah whatever.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
#1 DU’AA</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Dua is the weapon of the believer, why not use it?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Because like anything in life, Allaah is the true reason behind things. Even though some people often roll their eyes and think ‘Yeah right the old, make dua brother/sister’ but if you truly have faith in Allaah and know that He answers the prayers of those in need, you will never get tired of making du’aa to Him.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: 17px; padding: 5px 0px;">
<span style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Take the story of Muusa alyhi salaam as an example, in Soorah Qasas we are told about how he left Fir’awn and was literally fleeing for his life, his one concern was saving his own skin. But what happened? He made du’aa to Allaah, and Allaah not only saved him but blessed him with a wonderful wife. So in short, if you make du’aa and don’t give up Allaah will help you, and that is a promise!</span><br />

<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Dear Muslim! Know that Allaah obligated all His slaves to enter Islaam completely by adhering firmly to its legislation and to shun anything that contradicts it. Allaah sent Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam to call people to Islaam and propagate this mission. He informed us that whoever follows Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam will be guided, and whoever shuns his call will stray and be misguided. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">In many verses of the Quran, Allaah warns us against things that lead to apostasy, as well as all types of Shirk </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">(associating partners with Allaah in worship) and Kufr (disbelief). In the chapters of apostasy which are found in the books of Islamic creed, the scholars have mentioned many matters which nullify a persons’ Islaam and render one an apostate; the most dangerous and common of which are ten, which are mentioned below and which have brief explanations so that people may be aware of these matters and avoid them. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><strong>First:</strong> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Shirk in worship: Allaah says what means: “Verily, Allaah forgives not (the sin of) setting up partners (in worship) with Him, but He forgives whom He wills, sins other than that,” (An-Nisaa’: 116) and also “Verily, whosoever sets up partners (in worship) with Allaah, then Allaah has forbidden Paradise to him, and the Fire will be his abode. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">And for the wrongdoers there are no helpers” (Al-Maa’idah: 72). These are matters such as calling upon the dead, seeking their support and slaughtering animals for them or in their name, such as those who slaughter for Jinn or at people’s graves. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><strong>Second</strong>: </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Making intermediaries between a person and Allaah, whom people ask to intercede on their behalf with Allaah. This includes supplicating to such ‘intermediaries’ and putting ones trust in them. Whoever does any of these has become a disbeliever by the consensus of the Muslim scholars. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><strong>Third</strong>: </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Not considering those who associate partners with Allaah in worship as disbelievers, doubting their disbelief, or considering their faith as correct. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><strong>Fourth</strong>: </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Believing that there is guidance which is better or more suitable than the guidance with which the Prophet sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam came with; or believing that any other legislation is superior to his, such as those who favour manmade legislation over Islamic legislation and use these manmade legislations to rule with. This also includes believing that man-made legislation is better than Islaam, or that they are equivalent, or that one may use them as a basis for ruling, or that Islamic legislation is not suitable for the twenty-first century, or believing that Islamic legislation is the reason behind the weakness and backwardness of the Muslims or limiting Islamic legislation to only govern the relationship between the slave and his Lord and not his other worldly affairs. Moreover, this category includes those who consider that some Islamic penal-laws are unsuitable for our time, such as cutting the hands of thieves or stoning adulterers. Likewise, believing that one can refer to man-made legislation for commercial or business transactions renders one a disbeliever, because such a person by conviction deems lawful what Allaah has ruled as unlawful. An example of this is those people who set rules for those who consume intoxicants or commit fornication or adultery. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><strong>Fifth:</strong> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hating anything which the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam commanded even if one performs it, Allaah says what means: “That is because they hate that which Allaah has sent down (Qur’aan)” (Muhammad: 9).</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><strong>Sixth:</strong> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Joking at or making fun of any part of Islaam, its rewards or its punishments, Allaah says what means: “Say: Was it at Allaah and His Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) and His Messenger that you were mocking. Make no excuse; you disbelieved after you had believed” (At-Tawbah: 65-66). </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><strong>Seventh:</strong> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Practising magic, Allaah says what means: “but neither of these two taught anyone (such things) till they had said, We are for trial, so disbelieve not (by learning this magic from us)” (Al-Baqarah: 102). </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<strong><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Eighth: </span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Supporting the disbelievers against the believers, Allaah says what means: “And if any amongst you takes them (as supporters), then surely, he is one of them. Verily, Allaah guides not those people who are the Thaalimoon </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">(polytheists and wrongdoers and unjust)” (Al-Maa’idah: 51). </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<strong><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Ninth: </span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Believing that people are free to abandon the Islamic legislation which was brought to us by Muhammad sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam, Allaah says what means: “And whoever seeks a religion other than Islaam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers” (Aal ‘Imraan: 85). </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><strong>Tenth:</strong> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Shunning the religion of Allaah by refusing to learn or practice it, Allaah says what means: “Who does more wrong than he who is reminded of the Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of his Lord, then turns aside therefrom Verily, We shall exact retribution from the Mujrimoon (criminals, disbelievers, polytheists, sinners)” (As-Sajdah: 22). </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #3e3e3e; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-top: 5px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">There is no excuse for committing any of the above mentioned nullifications, regardless of whether one did it seriously, jokingly or fearfully unless one was forced to say or do any of them. A believer must be careful not to commit any of them, so as not to be deserving of the punishment of Allaah.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Once, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), said to Ali RA:</b><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Ali ! Do 5 Works Before Sleeping, </span><div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />(1) Daily. Give 4000 Dinar Alms/sacrifice (sadqaa) daily before sleeping. <br />(2) Read whole Qur'aan one time daily before sleeping.<br />(3) Pay price of Jannah,daily before sleeping.<br />(4) Make a truce/peace between two fighting men daily before sleeping.<br />(5) Perform a Hajj daily before sleeping.<br /></span><div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then Ali RA requested Ya' RasoolAllah (peace be upon him) It is very hard to do how can I do all this?</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><b>Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) replied:</b></span></div>
<div>

What gives the face its glow, is Allah's Grace. It is a purified inner-reality.<br />
The glow is simply a reflection of our deeds, clean faith, intentions, thoughts,<br />
motives and everything we do for the real pleasure of Allah swt.<br />
<br />
No amount of make-up can be a substitute for it.<br />
<br />
If you want to be beautiful spend a minute before the mirror,<br />
then before your soul and examine your Motives,<br />
and 15 before Allah swt, be true to yourself.<br />
<br />
Below are some of the major factors which contribute our faces to<br />
reflect our true beauty and maintain a glowing potential:<br />
<br />
1. Be with Wudhu at all times.<br />
<br />
<br />
2. Avoid all unclean (Najis) food. Eat in moderation.<br />
<br />
<br />
3. Avoid hidden motives, thoughts, ill wishes, double morality, backbitting etc<br />
Examine your characters.<br />
<br />
4. Men should abstain from shaving their beards and<br />
women should not attract looks of na-mahram men.<br />
<br />
<br />
5. Always pray on time and never to miss fajr prayers (both winter and summer)<br />
<br />
<br />
6. Do not bear any sort of grudges, malice or envy towards others in your heart.<br />
Adapt forgiveness, generosity, kindness, love, gratitude and patience.<br />
<br />
<br />
7. Get up little earlier than Namaz-e-Subh and offer 11 rak'at of Namaz-e-Shab<br />
(Night Prayers). for that extraordinary Noor on the face.<br />
<br />
8. Eat one pomegranate atleast once every 40 days.<br />
<br />
<br />
8. Do not sleep at the time of sunset.<br />
<br />
<br />
9. Avoid watching un-Islamic films and late night parties, stay ups, music etc.<br />
<br />
<br />
10. Keep fasts on 3 days of every month other than Ramadan and keep yourself<br />
away from all kinds of sins and bad habits.<br />
<br />
Always be patient, grateful, in Rememberance of Allah swt - no matter trials of life<br />
and have a smiling relaxed face.<br />
<br />
For attractive lips<br />
always remember to speak the truth.<br />
Speak words of kindness.<br />
<br />
For lovely eyes,<br />
Seek out the good in people.<br />
Avoid seeing all that is sinful. spying etc.<br />
<br />
For a slim figure,<br />
Share your food with the hungry.<br />
<br />
For beautiful hair,<br />
Hijab is the best protection for your hair, split ends,<br />
<br />
For poise,<br />
Walk with Knowledge and Positive thoughts<br />
<br />
So how do we know if we have succeeded?<br />
We will automatically have a joyous, happy face shining like a bright star.<br />
Our whole being will reflect positiv energy despite our difficulties in life.<br />
<br />
<br />
The fruit of Silence is Prayer,<br />
The fruit of Prayer is Faith,<br />
The fruit of Faith is Love,<br />
The fruit of Love is Service,<br />
The fruit of Service is Peace.<br />
<br />
<br />
Watch ur thoughts, they become words .,<br />
Watch ur words, they become actions .,<br />
Watch ur actions, they become habits .,<br />
Watch ur habits, they become character .,<br />
Watch ur character, It becomes ur destiny ...!!<br />
<br />
<br />
Wishing Your Days Be Filled With<br />
Happiness, Peace And Good Health...</div>

I'm sorry that my blog is so dead. I have no time to update this blog because I'm usually on tumblr. It's easier there, for lazy people like me cause you just reblog things which sometimes I think it's gay but enjoyable at the same time. I will not let this blog to be a dead blog. I promise, I'll be active again. I'm going to have my final for this semester on January 3rd which is the next day of my 21st birthday and it's going to be the second time celebrating without my family. sigh... well, we don't usually have special things on my birthday anyways. So, I bet it's going to be nothing special for 2012. I miss home, seriously. I miss everyone and everything I know, even though sometimes I say "FFFF everyone and everything I know". okay. take care. I love you all :) </span>Lilianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17836182809297468169noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2722351982510394559.post-8719925684067487272011-08-26T10:45:00.000-07:002015-09-02T21:58:02.726-07:00Spaghettini in Alfredo sauce<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A little boy loved to come and play around it everyday. He climbed to the treetop, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow…he loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him. Time went by…the little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree every day.<br />
<br />
One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. “Come and play with me” the tree asked the boy. “I am no longer a kid, I do not play around trees any more” the boy replied.<br />
<br />
“I want toys. I need money to buy them.” “Sorry, but I do not have money… but you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.” The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy never came back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad.<br />
<br />
One day, the boy who now turned into a man returned and the tree was excited “Come and play with me” the tree said. “I do not have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?” “ Sorry, but I do not have any house. But you can chop off my branches to build your house.” So the man cut all the branches of the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the man never came back since then. The tree was again lonely and sad.<br />
<br />
One hot summer day, the man returned and the tree was delighted. “Come and play with me!” the tree said. “I am getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?” said the man. “Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.” So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time.<br />
<br />
Finally, the man returned after many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I do not have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you …” the tree said. “No problem, I do not have any teeth to bite” the man replied. “No more trunk for you to climb on” “I am too old for that now” the man said. “I really cannot give you anything… the only thing left is my dying roots” the tree said with tears. “I do not need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years” the man replied. “Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on and rest, Come, come sit down with me and rest.” The man sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears…<br />
<br />
This is a story for everyone.The tree is like our parents. When we were young, we loved to play with our Mum and Dad…<br />
<br />
When we grow up, we leave them…only come to them when we need something or when we are in trouble.<br />
<br />
No matter what, parents will always be there and give everything they could just to make you happy.<br />
<br />
You may think the boy is cruel to the tree, but that is how all of us treat our parents. We take them for granted we don’t appreciate all they do for us, UNTIL it’s too late. May Allah SWT forgive us of our shortcomings and may He Guide us inshaallah.</div><div style="padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px;"><em><strong>“And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And that you be dutiful to your parents. If one of them or both of them attain old age in your life, say not to them a word of disrespect, nor shout at them but address them in terms of honour. And lower unto them the wing of submission and humility through mercy, and say: ‘My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy as they did bring me up when I was small.’ ” [Al-Qur’an 17:23-24]</strong></em></div><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I read a post on <a href="http://rock-a-byee-baby.blogspot.com/" style="color: #134f5c; font-weight: bold;">Akmal Ayob's</a><b style="color: #134f5c;"> </b>blog about his experience with the supernatural thing he had while sleeping and what he saw in the mirror. Read his blog if you wanna know his story. Therefore, I'm writing this post to tell about my experience with the "<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Headless Figure in Red</span></i>". </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I remember it happened when I was 15 and I was going to have a big examination, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><b>Penilaian Menengah Rendah</b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"> (commonly abbreviated as </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><b>PMR</b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">; </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">Malay</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"> for </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">Lower Secondary Assessment) so I stayed up late in school ,studying with my best friend Nabila as the exam was just around the corner. It was around 11 pm and it was just us because everyone went back to the hostel already, we walked from the school to the hostel and oh yeah before I forgot , I studied in a boarding school. As we reached near the mosque, I saw something in front in the cover walk was facing us and it was big but looked like it was looking at us and FYI, I wasn't wearing my glasses on and that's why I asked Nabila" hey do you see what I'm seeing right now?" she said "yeah but don't know what it is" . So we decided to walk in front of it to look closer but we just looked at it like that but then suddenly Nabila asked me to run and recite ayatul Qursi. I was like "what is it?" she anxiously asked me to run and kept on reciting ayatul Qursi and I did with full of curiosity in my head.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">Once we reached in front of our hostel block , we stopped running and I asked her again, what was it and she told me " I saw a red figure but headless" and I was shocked but thankful that I wasn't able to see it clearly and the thing did not disturb us.Until now I'm still wondering about what I saw (but wasn't clear). If it was human, why would someone stood in the cover walk at night like that ? </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"> </span></span></span><br />
