Quick Updates

Bismillahi Rahmani Rahim..

Assalamualaikum WRT WBT

Heya everyone. I guess this is my 1st post of the new year. Sorry folks. I havent been in the blogging mood for quite a while. No, Im not depressed or anything. Im just tired a lot and have nothing to write about.

Well ok, thats the understatement of the year, but most of the things happening, I dont see the need to share with the rest of the whole world. Although this blog is for free expression --NOT first impressions-- I think I need to make some adjustments to the member of viewers.

I think I need to limit those who can read my blog to a minimum, to those who really really really know me, rather than those who will be judgmental.

So everyone can come visit my public blog after this, which I will InsyaAllah keep up to date.

----------------------

Ok, so this new year.. I havent officially listed out my new year resolutions yet. If I have any, Im keeping them to myself. Looks like Im becoming a more private person. Haha. We'll see how long that lasts. Although, it might just be caused by the mood Im in.

----------------------

Oh yes.. I seriously forgot to update everyone about Wani. She gave birth to my 'anak sedara', named Faqihah Amni. *Sigh* I just love the name Faqihah. It was my chatting name dulu2. Some of my friends still call me Faqihah (or qiha).

I was planning to name my future daughter Faqihah, but no worries. Hehehhehe.

Si Amni ni rupa sama cam kakak die Pipah. Hehe ciut miut.

Me and Abidah went to visit her the other day. As well as to wish her happy birthday. Sorry Wani lambat sambut and lambat ziarah. Baru sampai balik ke JB that week.

Tak sabar nak jenjalan and lunch ngan korang lepas ni. Hehe.

----------------------------

Next, I missed a few birthdays. Well, I missed mentioning them in my blog.

1st is Layth, my little (alamak dah tak little dah) marshmallow. Hehhehe. Dah besar dah my favourite nephew ni.

Layth is now 3 years old. Besau dah. Hehe.

AND he has started play school, yehaaaaa!

Takpe Layth, nnt ada fulus, ade masa, Mangah dtg lagi eh.

Miss you, muah2!! *hugs & kisses*

May this birthday bring you closer towards Allah's Taufiq and Hidayah.

Open Your Eyes

Open Your Eyes
Album : Thank You Allah
Munsyid : Maher Zain

Look around yourselves
Can't you see this wonder
Spread in front of you
The clouds floating by
The skies are clear and blue
Planets in the orbits
The moon and the sun
Such perfect harmony

Let's start questioning ourselves
Isn't this proof enough for us
Or are we so blind
To push it all aside..
No..

We just have to
Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds
If we just look quiet we'll see the signs
We can't keep hiding from the truth
Let it take us by surprise
Take us in the best way
(Allah..)
Guide us every single day..
(Allah..)
Keep us close to You
Until the end of time..

Look inside yourselves
Such perfect order
Hiding in yourselves
Running in your veins
What about anger love and pain
And all the things you're feeling
Can you touch them with your hand?
So are they really there?

Lets start questioning ourselves
Isn't this proof enough for us?
Or are we so blind
To push it all aside..?
No..

We just have to
Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds
If we just look quiet we'll see the signs
We can't keep hiding from the truth
Let it take us by surprise
Take us in the best way
(Allah..)
Guide us every single day..
(Allah..)
Keep us close to You
Until the end of time..

When a baby's born
So helpless and weak
And you're watching him growing..
So why deny
Whats in front of your eyes
The biggest miracle of life..

We just have to
Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds
If we just look quiet we'll see the signs
We can't keep hiding from the truth
Let it take us by surprise
Take us in the best way
(Allah..)
Guide us every single day..
(Allah..)
Keep us close to You
Until the end of time..

Open your eyes and hearts and minds
If you just look bright to see the signs
We can't keep hiding from the truth
Let it take us by surprise
Take us in the best way
(Allah..)
Guide us every single day..
(Allah..)
Keep us close to You
Until the end of time..

Allah..
You created everything
We belong to You
Ya Rabb we raise our hands
Forever we thank You..
الحمد الله
Alhamdulillah..

In the Presence of an Ulama'

On the 19th of December, weekend lepas lepas, our whole family (including family Paklong and Nenek) got the huge honor and once in a lifetime opportunity to listen to Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qardhawi give a ceramah at Masjid Shah Alam.

MashaAllah, it was indescribable. To listen to him live and be so close to him. Such an honor. Sheikh Yusuf Qardhawi talked in Arabic, although I only understood 48% of what he said, and although there was someone translating what he said, I still couldnt take my eyes off him while he talked. I was awed. It was unbelievable, to be in the presence of a famous world known ulama'.

I taped his ceramah. Nnt nak bagi kat Aliya, suruh die translate.. hehe.. boleh kan Aliya? :D Nnt boleh post kat YouTube. Hehe.

Here are some pictures:

Lepas maghrib terus start majlis.
Terkejut tengok sape pengerusi majlis -- belah kiri tu ustaz 'family kitorg'. Haha

This is the view from where I sat, betul2 depan screen. Yusuf Qardhawi was near the mimbar. Kalau zoom with the camera nampak la.

The man of the hour
