Ramadhan 21: MY Imagination

I had a strange dream last few days. It's really a science fiction, now is that I am into it. It was really funny i guess.

Well, the story goes like this. I came from another planet/dimension that actually have a diplomatic relationship with human on earth. As part of the diplomatic relationship, we were sending people (rakyat marhein) from our dimension to learn and live with human. Among them were high ranking officers that took vows not to break any of our secret. Kire2 cam aku ni dr secret intelligence la.. But then, these certain officers telah berpaling tadah and ada buat allies ngan several penduduk bumi. Rancangan mereka ini akan merbahayakan kedudukan my dimension and boleh melakukan kerosakan di muka bumi. I was being sent to identify those officers, and brought back all of our citizens from the earth. TOld u before, since we have a diplomatic relationship with people on Earth (cerite ni berlatarkan Malaysia ok:P) we had to go to a big free space i.e. KLIA in order for our dimension ship mendarat (lebih kurangla.. since the ship/plane tidak mendarat tapi terapung2 kat udara). But we are using a different type of ticket and pintu masuk.

At the same time, we are not supposed to use any of our dimension stuff kat atas bumi. I was given a limited period of time, managed to identified those bad people and loyal officers. SInce we were quite late (aku lupe nape shuttle bus yg patut amik kitorang lambat..jem kot?:D), we were not managed to get everyone on the plane. Ok, i was the highest ranking officer at the moment, reporting to our ketua at my dimension using a sofistikated and technology wise system-so i decided to leave those bad officers dekat bumi. Only certain of them will be brought back for soalsiasat.. and the imagination goes on and on samapai aku terjaga.

Seperti biasa, alat2 canggih yg berada dlm satu2 filem. Aku ada satu alat yg bentuknya besar sikit dr pen, macam laser pointer. Bile tekan button, ape yg keluar? Jeng jeng jeng, space shuttle di udara yg akan wujud dlm bentuk Mutlak (since diekeluar macam cahaya) dan boleh masuk ke dalamnya. ANd i had this shoes yg boleh mengurangkan tekanan grafiti dr bumi dan menyebabkan kite naik ke udara. Then, di sisi kasut tu ade speed button yg akan memcepatkan perjalanan.

By the way, i am not so into Star Wars.. Superman/Smallville pun takdeler sgt-dah lama berkurangan.. paling2 pun The Charms, tapis ekarang dah takde and mimpi aku pun takde kaitan pasal magic.. and i don't wish to be someone who is not from Earth. aku tak tauler awat mimpi jadi gitu..canggih tak mimpi aku? :P
===
Balik ke dunia nyata.. Bush menang lagi? hmm..not so different than my expectation. Sebabnya, i think Kerry don't have so much karisma in himself. I even heard that he is more or less the same. Ni ada kwn kasi link utk share. Tengok2 lah sikit.. APa yg boleh kite buat ngan diorang? Sedih sungguh melihat saudara sesama Islam kita terlalu hebat dugaan dan tekanan yg mereka hadapi.. Terlalu..sedangkan kita masih aman damai di sini.. Allah, entah sampai bile keamanan yg ada pada kita. Moga ALlah tak timpakan bala di sini...

Petang ni nak berangkat ke Segamat, menemankan kawan ke satu program dan sambil curi2 belajar. :) Minggu ni nampaknya akan menjadi minggu yg sibuk. Balik dr segamat sabtu nanti, ahad ade majlis berbuka puasa dengan kawan2 lama (Ex-TIKL). Alahai, terlupa pula dgn temujanji nak berbuka di rumah seorg kenalan di SHah ALam.. Puasa makin nak tamat.. Amalan kurang, majlis makan tak terpenuh..hmmm.. Jgnlah kelak jadi aku org yg rugi..
Oklah.. sesape rasa nak kasi komen esp pasal bab cerite kat atas tu..tulis ler.. sesape rasa nak cerite lanjut, meh tepon kite. Telepon takleh call out lagi sekarang, malaih la nak gi bayo dulu.. Duit nak pakai utk raya dulu..hehe lagipun tak urgent sgt. bioler sesekali org plak cari kite, dr kite selalu cari org.. eheeheh..take care all.. till then.
wasalam.

Ramadhan 19: makan lagi

I was on MC yesterday due to food poisoning/salah makan. The day before i went to eat at a restaurant. Siti was rite, the food was nothing extraordinary..only the number of food was quite a lot. I was vomitted 4 times in 2 hours, and doctor advised me not to fast. So that will be the first time i did not fast due to illness, and the first time i took MC this year. Ingatkan boleh la buat hatrick no medical leave..tapi tak berjaya pula tahun ni:D. Hmm, terasa la juga hikmahnya bila org sakit dikecualikan drpd berpuasa..

Then today, i am having another buffet dekat luar. Hhuhu makan lagi. Hopefully kali ni tak sakit2 lagi perut ku. Thank God that I have siti to follow-up and cofirmed with everyone on the list.

Hmm..by the way, last buka puasa gathering with my fellow friends made me almost totally lost.. when almost all of them talking about their babies, unborn babies and master classes.. i was trapped in the middle, as i have nothing to share on the topics.. huhuh they are so advance.. terasa sedikit janggal, tapi takpelah.. kena belajar juga biasa2kan diri part2 ni:p bak kate my cousin, "mmg patutler kak zue tertekan.. " hahahah

erm...cukuplah kot utk kali ni.. will come back later.. i am still waiting for someone who promised to bring us makan kat The Ship ni.. hehehe bile ek diknon?:p

Mid Ramadhan

Sungguh, sekejap sahaja masa berlalu. Bila terasa masa berlalu terlalu cepat, tertanya balik pada diri sendiri agaknya tahun ni aku banyak main2 dan banyak buang masa.. ah, jauh lagilah untuk malam lailatul-qadr thn ni jikalau begitu.. Harap2 sia2 masa yg ada ni masih dpt dipergunakan sebaiknya.. insya-Allah..

My cousin (same age with me) is at my house for 2 days already, just relaxing here for few days before going to back to her father's house. She seems to be so excited being here since my mother is around and cook for us adik-beradik. My aunt (my cousin's mother) was passed away when we were 9-10 years old, and after few years her father remarried. But her stepmother was quite young, and she seems to lost a mother's touch.... She always told my sisters on how lucky they are for still having mother that could help them in so many things. It's really shown esp. during her engagement day.. And how many time she said if it is possible to ask her mother to come back from death, but then she knows it is impossible.. Sedih pun ada juga bila fikir balik, i can't imagine myself for not having a mother.

ha..sekarang dah dekat nak raya, ramai betul bertanya.. telekom tak dpt bonus ke? hmm sunyi je thn ni..ade sesape nak tolong jawab? Laili ke?:p By the way, i am planning a berbuka puasa pada 2/11bersama rakan2 rapat esp. a group of people yg mmg tiap2 tahun berbuka bersama setakat ni. Mostly they were cyberjaya ex-SRC members :) . Thn lepas kami pergi ke Vistana Hotel, the year before to Restoran Nelayan.. Thn ni insya-Allah samda ke Hotel Midah atau ke Dewan PErdana Felda , tak decide lagi. Ada sesapa nak ikut? Bleh habaq mai before ahad ni keh..

Kepala aku rasa ditzy balik.. kenapa asyik rasa pening je sekarang tak tahu lah.. Seems like i am start to feel boring with my work. Rasa confuse dah mula la balik ni. Isk, PMS ka? :)) hahahah life.. sometimes bila roda di atas kita rasa seronok sgt, bila roda turun ke bawah terasa macam erti kehidupan dah berkurangan..wallahualam.

The 13th Day

It has been quite sometimes i left this blog, but looks like i have few pengunjung setia until the site tag i put here few days back reached around 20-30 times pages viewed a day.. hehe thanx thanx. i always thought that actually nobody was around reading my blog. So, now it seems that my assumption was wrong..

Oh, by the way.. I guess few of other people also seems to calculating the 'days'. Kalau takleh baca kat blog saya ni pun nampaknyer Kak Qin, aida punya pun boleh jenguk juga;) har har har.

I know that i have several promises to be cash. I was trying hard to remember the point on "How to maintain a relationship@How to attract men". I tried several weeks, only that these vivid points became clear this morning. Once a friend of mine told me that if someone say that the difficult part of a relationship is to start it, he said yes it is thru because it is the time where you have to struggle and show your effort that that someone is really meant something to you. But, it is harder in a relationship because you need to keep the effort in order to maintain the relationship. He was once failed, but now seems to live happily ever after with his wife and child.

If you asked me about this question few years back, maybe it won't be as difficult as today. I used to think more like a man rather a woman last time, in which i have a boast of energy. Used to call the type of 'stereotype image of woman' as typical women. Now, i think that i am becoming that typical type of women. No wonder all the test i took last time change a lot to other descriptions. hehe isk, Aini kite dah perah otak abis2 dah ni utk ingat ni. So, here you are with the tips. Thanx to the brother who used to nagging me here and there, the credit goes to him. Sorrylah yer, adik sorang ni masih tak pandai nak apply tips tu..hahah. BTW, I did try few times some of the tips, and it went quite well. :)

Tips to maintain a relationship
1. Selalu menggunakan kata nama diri, kurangkan penggunaan kata ganti diri. Penggunaan kata nama diri akan menyebabkan orang yang mendengarnya terasa dekat/rapat dengan kita. Contohnya, jika memberikan pendapat peribadi (nada suara biasa sahaja):
Saya rasa sepatutnya perkara macam ini boleh dielakkan drpd berlaku. <--ayat agak formal, kurang mesra, bersifat mendapatkan point sahaja, environment akan jadi macam kaku sedikit. So, org di sekeliling akan merasakan tekanan secara tidak langsung yang wujud.
Ika rasa sepatutnyer perkara macam ini boleh dielakkan drpd berlaku <--ayat ada unsur tidak formal, bernada mententeramkan dan create environment yg lebih 'release' dan mesra. Orang akan rasa lebih mudah utk berkomunikasi dengan kita dan rasa lebih free to talk.

2. Memberi hadiah kepada pasangan tanpa perlu menunggu hari tertentu. I think this thing has also been raised by Aida in her previous posting. Hadiah tak sepertinya besar atau mahal, a small thing may give some nice suprise and most human mmg sukakan suprise macam ni. Tak perlu belikan alfa romeo, atau fiat aveo atau flat screen home-theater (hints hints:P) kalau come out with that person favourite dish, or tunggu untuk makan fav dish tu sampai org tu datang pun macam dah beri satu rasa terharu samada secara sedar atau separa sedar. Atau utk perempuan lagi senang, kasi apa pun as long as it is from special someone semua pun dia anggap sama --> special. Cara lain nak ubah dressing seseorg pun boleh ngan belikan dia fesyen/warna pakaian yg kite rasa cantik utk dia. So, nanti dia taulah yg kita ni suka cara cemana kat dia kan.. ahha (ok, pasal ubah dressing ni pendapat saya la.. bukan dr tips tu:P).

3. Menghubungi pasangan setiap hari. Tak perlulah bergayut sampai 4-5 jam. Cukup sekadar bertanya kabar di awal pagi dan sebelum tidur malam (around 5 minit). Kalau dah masa bercinta boleh je nak tanya kabar2 ni kan, so kalau dah kawin tu cuba2lah tanya juga. Macam maybe waktu lunch boleh tanya dah makan ke belum. Atau spouse pergi outstation tu, telefon2lah juga. Gitulah lebih kurang.

4. Luahkan perkataan tentang perasaan dr hati <--macam cakap saya sayang awak ke, i love you, watashiwa anatawa sukides. Terlalu tiap2 hari sgt pun ade org kate tak best, terlalu jarang sgt pun tak elok. At least pasangan tahu yg kita masih sayang kat dia kan. So terpulanglah utk kekerapan ckp tu. Kalau diselalukan pun rasanya tak salah (utk pasangan berkahwin la). utk yg tak kawin, maybe rasa senang nyer nak ckp..mesti die ni dah ckp kat org lain juga.

5. Oh, ni ade satu teringat. Pasal masa time gaduh, kalau sorang tu tgh marah kite jgn lawan. Diam sahaja walaupun dia salah, lepas dah cool down barulah kita ckp secara baik. Sbb org yg marah ni selalunya kurang waras, so kalau lawan akan menyemarakkan api tu. Yg ni applicable to both side. Suami jgnlah harap isteri dengar aje, and isteri jgnlah asyik nak marah je kan. (Isk, part ni mmg saya kena byk2 belajar la.. hehe:)) )

Oklah, tu jeler yg teringat time ni. CUkuplah utk kali ni. Kalau sesape rasa nak tambah pun boleh juga. I think org dah biasa dengar, and aida & aini punya posting lagi byk input. Apa2 pun nasihat utama utk para lelaki :Jgn biarkan perempuan tertanya2 tanpa penjelasan/jawapan yg pasti. Kaum perempuan adalah kaum yg sangat hebat dlm segi seni dan kreativiti dan imaginasi, sebab kaum perempuan bila lelaki diam dan biarkan diri dia tanpa penjelasan, do not be suprised if she can come out with 101 assumption on your silence. he he he:D

selamat meneruskan ibadat puasa:)

8th Ramadhan

Haaaa.. dah 8 ramadhan dah? isk.. time flies so fast.. Macam baru je puasa bermula, now after i counted back actually i am going to work minimum days of 10 only before bercuti raya..

I think i can't type much now after these two-days long 'conversation' on Siti's blog. It was all started on Education in Malaysia issue and drag into Political Ideology issue. But then, maybe siti and I were too idealistic or maybe i am not really aware on the political matters in Malaysia.. I think i shouldn't say much here.. You all can view my comments there and there.. so many, as it seems like i am blogging there.. :) and, you may give your opinion as well there.. Just to share our opinions.. macam siti kate, mana tau kalau ada yg jadi menteri nanti bolehlah consider apa sebenarnyer dlm minda kebanyakkan org ni..

Apa2 pun, i am feeling excited to go back hometown. hehe BALIK lagi? jgn marah..:p takdelah, actually few days back there was a broken pipe yg telah menyebabkan the whole house floaded with water. So balik ngan niat nak menolong la..tak tahuler akhirnyer jadi tolong kemas ke, tolong jaga rumah je ke atau tolong tgk je.. hehe And..sebelum terlupa, i just found out that my phone bill payment was not credited in which it turns out to .. temporarily disqualified me to make calls and send SMS.. huhuuhhu this is something that never happen to me since i work!! ha, kalau rindu2 tu takyahler SMS call ajeler..mmg aku bosan takde org tepon sekarang, asyik sms, emel, msg board, blogging, YM.. kekekekek:))

OKlah, need to settle my job.. Nanti lewat plak balik:) Jumpa lagi.. take care, selamat berbuka and bye all..

7th Fasting Day: Nasi Al-Ambra

It was because of Bubur Lambuk yesterday that I went to the Menara's mosque to pray Asr berjemaah. Hehe niat tak betul kan? Sbb tu in the end, tak sempat nak dpt pun bubur tu.. erks, cedey sket ler, sbb tetibe teringin nak makan bubur lambuk menara (erm.. that cannot be categorized as mengidam sbb kite belum qualified utk join that group. he he he)..takpeler bukan rezeki pun. maybe hari ni nak try my luck again kot?:D

But then, i met someone there. Guess who? jeng jeng jeng.. the person that successfully emotionally reminded me of the old times at MMU Cyberjaya dulu.. sbbnya? sama2 solat jemaah kat masjid tu, dok sebelah2 and had some chat dlm masjid.. Tiba2 teringat solat kat masjid al-Hidayah MMU tu, time2 bukak pose sesama, solat tarawikh sesama.. tetibe je bile tgk permaidani warna biru masjid menara terbayang permaidani warna hijau belang kuning masjid mmu.. rasa sayu sgt tetibe (tetibe sensitip gile plak).. penah tak korang teringat tentang sesuatu perkara tu, deep inside your heart sampai tibe2 korang rasa nak nangis? ha tu lah yg berlaku semalam... it is just *that's it!* . That person gelak jer tgk aku... muahahahha ntah ape2 ler ngan budak sorang ni kan akak kan..hehe

Last saturday i had a majlis berbuka puasa plus majlis tazkirah bulan ramadhan, and we agreed to do potluck. I prepared Nasi Al-Ambra and brought it all along the way from Malacca to KL (since i took leave for few days and went back hometown kan.. hehe). Some of the fellow friends did asked me for the recipe. I took this recipe from forwarded emails, but have modified sket2 mengikut citarasa org timur. :)) Here it goes the recipe:

Preparation Time: 1 hour (Rendam beras, hiris itu ini, defrost daging)
Cooking Time : 30 minutes (u can cook & prepare Bahan A, Bahan B and Bahan C simultaneously)
Total Time Taken: 1 1/2 hours.

Bahan-Bahan
Untuk 6-10 hidangan

Bahan A:
1 kg beras basmati (dicuci & direndam selama 30 minit)
1 batang kayu manis
3 biji pelaga
3 kuntum bunga cengkih
3 helai daun pandan (dicuci & dipintal)
3 sdm minyak kacang (minyak masak biasa pun boleh)
1/2 cawan susu rendah lemak
5 ulas bawang putih (dikisar)
4 sm halia (dikisar)
1.5 liter air
1 sdt garam (kalau saya, lebihkan garam dlm 2-3 sudu teh atau secukup rasa)

Bahan B:
500 g lobak merah (dicuci bersih & dipotong dadu) -boleh kurangkan lobak. Dlm 2-3 batang lobak sederhana besar, 500g lobak boleh dpt dlm 5 batang lobak.
400 g kacang buncis (dihiris halus) -boleh kurangkan dlm 300g jer
500 g daging lembu tanpa lemak (dikisar) -gune daging kisar Ramly
3 biji putih telur
1/2 sdt garam -sama macam kat atas, boleh lebihkan sedikit dlm 1 sudu
1 sdt serbuk lada hitam -kalau nak pedas sket, tambah lebih sket. Maybe dlm 3 sudu.

Cara Cara

Bahan A:
· Tumis bawang putih, halia kisar bersama kayu manis, bunga cengkih dan pelaga sehingga wangi. (boleh gune kuali dulu, then baru masukkan dlm rice cooker. If gune rice cooker, kurangkan sukatan beras.)
· Masukkan daun pandan dan susu rendah lemak.
· Apabila sudah mendidih masukkan beras dan masak sehingga tanak. (Dlm masa 15 minit je gitu kalau gune api dapur, pastu kena jaga api. Rice cooker tak try lagi sbb tak muat dgn nasi begitu:p)
(Optional utk lebih sedap tambahkan satu tin cendawan butang yg telah dihiris ke dalam nasi apabila telah masak)

Bahan B:
· Masak daging di atas kuali hingga separuh kering. (tak perlu taruk minyak)
· Masukkan lobak merah, kemudian masukkan kacang buncis, garam, lada hitam dan putih telur. Kacau sehingga rata.
· Campuran daging ini di masukkan ke dalam nasi yang sudah tanak dan dikacau rata.

Bahan-bahan untuk salad:
7 batang lada merah (dikisar halus) (kalau blend jgn bubuh air byk, nanti kuah cair)
1/4 sdt garam (lebih sikit pun ok.. maybe 1/2 sudu)
1/2 sdm gula timbang (brown sugar) (i put 1 tablespoon)
2 biji bawang besar (dihiris halus) (1 biji pun dah banyak. Hiris halus2. Tapi kalau suka bawang, takpe letak lebih)
2 sdm daun ketumbar (dihiris)
1 biji jus limau kasturi (i put 2 biji instead)

Cara-cara: Satukan semua bahan-bahan dan gaul rata.

And this dishes is also great with ayam masak pedas, sup kosong & some daun salad, timun jepun.

The result? I can say hmmm... quite yummy jugalah esp. waktu panas2 dan dihidangkan ngan ayam masak pedas (sambal goreng ayam). Tak caya? tanyalah org2 yg dah penah makan.. ha sape penah makan cepat ckp:D.

Since this is Nasi Arab recipe (i guess, based on its name) kalau ikut resipi asal mmg agak tawar, so yg italic words tu semua comment saya lepas memasak 2 kali-satu resipi asal, satu resipi ubahsuai. :)

Ha, ape tu.. dah meleleh air liur..kekeke sabar sabar.. Kurang 6 jam je lagi nak bukak pose.. Apa2 pun selamat mencuba ek:P

wasalam.

6th Ramadhan 1425H

Hai.. macam menghitung hari plak aku ni yer.. Mengalahkan org yg kena 'bersabar' menunggu hari kan diknon kan, (Well, u know who you are:p). Whateva it is, today i feel soooo sleepy.. Ngantuknyer, tak tahuler apesal. Abisler, produktiviti menurun.. hehehe

Apa2 pun, aku pening jugak ni dgn diri sendiri.. Apesallah aku ni tkaleh nak speed-up keje2 aku. Rasa cam quite slow je buat keje ni.. eish, bak kate Philip Humbert perfectionist cannot work together wih excellency.. Maybe i was too into perfectionist, and i think i have to learn on how to delegate works to other people.

Al-Hamdulillah, thank God that I have a new assistant now that can work practically quite fast and teliti (a lady, of course.. and still young in which it is easier to teach and more obedient..ehhe). Farah was rite, this 'seat' (post) is really facing too many adhoc works. And it is much frigthening as most of these adhoc works are treated IMPORTANT and URGENT and CRITICAL and need to be sent to higher authority ASAP.

Aih, sorry friends. I cannot think about what to write today- from the previous discussion i had on fiqh/hukum-hakam, on the How to Attract Your Partner topic(tak saba part ni ek:p) , on the economic issue (oil price) i raised up before.. (There is Quran reciting now in Menara Telekom, sounds like what i heard in Saudi Arabia last time.. Beautiful voice by the reciter..) I will see if i have some time to slot in my ideas today ok.

So.. have a nice day today, and take care all.. Muahas!

4th Fasting Day

Assalamualaikum wbt and hi all..

So, how's your day? Have you been missing me? heheh ;) Al-Hamdulillah, until today i am still alive. This Ramadhan seems to emerge the way i think in a new way.. Since I always (at most time) think differently from other people, i thought that i might be weird or rare or odd already.. But then i found out that actually more people out there are more intelectual than i am and they already think oddly.. ehhehe

By the way, some of you might wonder what 'gift' i received for my birthday this year. That 'gift' filled me like the same feeling i had when i just came back from umrah-I felt my life has been completed. And once again, i am feeling it. So, what is it that i really received this year?

I received knowledge
Al-Hamdulillah, for HIM let me walked thru this path and found what i searched for long time. :) Hmm, hari ni aku rasa cam jadi 'ustazah' la plak.. Ustazah celup je since i still have to refer to few people yg lebih arif. ehhe Since i received a number of questions pasal hukum-hakam.. i think i would like to share some of them with all of you. Esok2 kite postkan lagi ttg perkara2 yg dibincangkan hari ni. ok.
So, here you are with one email posting that create some 'havoc' among muslim women:
==
Subject: Untuk panduan

Assalamualaikum... Sempena Ramadhan yang bakal menjelang tiba tidak lama lagi ni eloklahsaya terangkan mengenai sesuatu yang jarang sekali diketahui oleh orang Islam seperti kita. Untuk pengetahuan semua, walaupun kaum hawa akan kedatangan haid pada setiap bulan (bg yg normal) dan tidak boleh berpuasa di bulan Ramadhan apabila tiba masa tersebut tetapi mereka adalah diwajibkan imsak sepanjang hari sehingga tibanya waktu berbuka puasa.
Wajib imsak bermaksud, wanita tersebut tidak dibenarkan sama sekaliuntuk menjamah makanan dan hendaklah menjaga diri seperti orang yangberpuasa. Ramai yang tidak tahu mengenai masalah ini kerana berpendapatapabila mereka tidak boleh berpuasa kerana didatangi haid mereka bolehmakan dan minum seperti biasa.
Sebenarnya pendapat ini adalah salah kerana walaupun didatangi haid, wanita adalah tidak dibenarkan sama sekali untuk makan dan minum seperti biasa. Perkara ini pernah dibangkitkan dua tahun yang lalu kerana umatIslam tidak peka dengan masalah ini.
Antara yang pernah membangkitkan masalah ini ialah Dr Mashitah dalam tulisan beliau di sebuah akhbar.Beliau menyatakan bahawa wanita yang tidak boleh berpuasa adalah wajib imsak seperti yang diterangkan diatas. Kalau anda merasa ragu-ragu dengan kenyataan ini cubalah bertanyakan kepada yang ahli seperti beliau untukbertanyakan pendapat. Saya cuma ingin berkongsi secebis ilmu yang saya pelajari di kelas agama, itu saja. Semoga panduan ini berguna untuk semua. Wallahhua'lam..

So, here goes the pendapat:

Pendapat 1
AMZ wrote:

salam,
perkara ni pernah dibangkitkan dalam satu kuliah yg dihadiri lama dahulu. kalau nak diikutkan, tidak makan dan minum ketika period adalah sunat sebagai menghormati bulan ramadhan...TETAPI tidak boleh digambarkan seolah2 sedang berpuasa - hukumnya haram sebab orang yg period haram berpuasa.

rational - apa yang kita buat semua berasaskan niat.berpuasa ramadhan diwajibkan berniat (sebab tuh kita diharuskan ikut maliki yang berniat sebulan takut2 terlupa satu hari nak niat puasa ramadhan - syafie berniat tiap2 malam). so, kalau niat kita tak makan tuh sebab kena berpuasa sama macam org lain tak boleh la.. niatkan je sebagai menghormati ramadhan..

tapi rasanya, kalau dah diberi kemudahan untuk takberpuasa tuh, nikmati ajela sebaiknya...orang lain susah payah tak nak puasa,korang plak tanak makan +minum..sekurang2nya takdela lauk untuk berbuka terlebih garam.

Pendapat ke-2:
Pendapat 2 (dari wanita)
salam utk semua juga.
Maybe saya tak layak untuk bercakap ttg perkara ni kat sini. Insya-Allah sekadar berkongsi sedikit ilmu yg ada hasil drpd menghadiri satu majlis ilmu sabtu yg lepas ttg ibadah puasa.

Isu ni pun ada dibangkitkan dlm majlis ilmu tersebut. Terdapat 3 golongan yg dibenarkan untuk tidak berpuasa; dan salah satunya adalah perempuan yg didatangi haid atau nifas. Sbbnya, dlm keadaan ini badan perempuan jadi lemah dan mengalami sakit2 lain.. So, kalau berpuasa ada kemungkinan akan mendatangkan kemudaratan kepada diri. Antara lain ialah kisah para sahabat yg berpuasa dan bermusafir. Dlm perjalanan, mereka berhenti berehat. Sebahagian yg lain meneruskan puasa, dan sebahagian yg lain berbuka puasa tetapi menyediakan makanan berbuka utk rakan2 mereka yg lain.. Kirenyer kalau dlm musafir, tidak berpuasa bererti makan dan minum apa beza tidak berpuasa utk perempuan yg dtg haid kan?

Kalau difikirkan secara logik pun, sekiranya wajib imsak sekalipun dtg haid dan tidak boleh makan dan minum sehingga terbenam matahari bererti kita sedang berpuasa (definisi puasa: menahan diri dari makan, minum, melakukan perkara2 yg mendatangkan nikmat dan bersama dengan isteri/suami dr terbitnya fajar sidiq hingga terbenam matahari). And if dr awal lagi berpuasa itu WAJIB untuk perempuan yg dtg haid, sudah tentu Allah dan Rasulullah SAW dah syariatkan kaum wanita berpuasa dlm apa jua keadaan sekalipun. Jadi mmg dah sah2 tak boleh berpuasa, kan.

cumanya, disunatkan utk tidak makan atau minum di hadapan org yg berpuasa / makan secara sorok2 sbb dikhuatiri mengganggu org yg berpuasa. Bak kata Munir, Allah dah kasi pelepasan, kite makan je lah kan.. Rugilah pulak kalau tak ambil peluang keemasan tu.ehhe;)

My apologize ttg kekurangan isi dalam apa yg akan saya perkatakan sbb hari ni kebetulan tak bawa nota2 dr kelas tersebut because perkara ni mmg dibincangkan secara mendalam dan termasuk ada petikan dr al-Quran, dan hadith sekali. Insya-Allah ada kesempatan saya akan emailkan nota tersebut kepada kawan2 (it's in hardcopy, so i have to type it first).

Apa2 pun, jika ada sebarang pendapat atau pembetulan, silalah betul2kan saya yg masih lagi sedikit ilmunya. wallahu 'alam.
Wasalam.
== ==

Teringat pesan Rasulullah supaya :Permudahkan, jangan disusah2kan sesuatu perkara. Tadi seorg sahabat pun ada kata, Islam itu mudah-jangan disusah2kan. :) Apa2 pun, atas kekurangan ilmu saya kurang pasti kenapa diwajibkan imsak dan alasan Dr Masyitah menulisnya (jika benar beliau yg tulis la). Kalau ada sesape yg ada pendapat lain bolehlah bagi komen yer.

Opss.. ari ni keje sampai kul 5.00 jer.. hehehe oklah, selamat berbuka puasa semua. Insya-ALlah jumpa lagi. Have a nice day all.. ;)

Ada sesape nak komen ape2 tak?

Thank You

Al-Hamdulillah! That is all I can now. At least I know that I am still alive after 24 years of living on this planet. Thanx a lot to all the wishes, presents and doa from all my beloved friends. Never thought that so many people will remember my birthday (or actually is it because being stated on the YM status message and the captured in this blog?:p) ahahah Just a simple thought, tambah satu lagi usia yg panjang bermaksud semakin dekat mendekati kematian juga kan.. I am becoming older, but yet sometimes act like immature girl. :)

I have not so much to tell ya today. I am going to have my 2-days leave on this Thursday and Friday (in which it means sum up to 4 days break) . So in case that I won’t be able to update my blog tomorrow, this is a wish for all of you:

By the way, few days back I found out Aini had some interesting posting on How to Approach Woman. It was posted earlier by someone else, and now I am posting her things. Heheh but, can’t help it. It sounds interesting. I know I know, doesn’t seems to be faired with guys. Why then there is no topic on how to approach a man. :p I guess most women are shy to start first, and men are hard to describe what they want too. I got some tips from a good friend on how to maintain a relationship, or in other words How to tackle a man (woman pun boleh apply tau:P). But I guess most of my reader friends here knew better methods already on this topic. By the way, one thing not to forget is that women have lots of thinking in their minds. Whether it is your language, email, voice, words, body language..it can indicates something to the women . if you do not explain it at the proper period of time, women will make tons of assumption with their great imagination.. so, pls do not leave a woman in doubt if you do not want them to assume anything.. ;)

So, have a nice week. I might not be able to frequently update this thing during Ramadhan. Sampai jumpa lagi. Take care all. Wasalam.

The Last 23rd Breath

**
I was a little bit shock this morning when I saw on The Sun front page wrote this: He’s bad; Hung is looking to visit Malaysia (something like that laa..since I don’t have a copy of it). Aiyaa..just few months back I read an article in the internet saying that he was died due to suicide. Masa tu pun dah shocked abis dah, can’t believe that Americans were teasing him until death. Rupenye tipah tertipu lagi.. Haiii..looks like recently people loves to play with someone’s death. OK dah jumpa: Hung’s looking forward to Malaysia visit.

BTW, I came across somebody’s statement in yesterday’s newspaper (Mingguan Malaysia or Berita Minggu, I am not sure) regarding perbincangan ttg agama di dalam internet, in which he mentioned is not suitable. It should be done in a small scale, face-to-face or closed situation. Rasa macam ridiculous je bile dgr org macam ni boleh bercakap cenggitu. Yelah, at least if he can write something in the newspaper and has his photo there that indicates he is somebody. But a somebody that is so.. backwards, seems like he don’t even realize the emergence of current technology in which there is almost nothing impossible nowadays. How many of us actually have time to go and meet our teachers/lecturers or even tok guru nowadays? We are all living in the competitive environment in which even though it is hard for us to accept the fact, but here we are.. In what way else we can gain as much knowledge as possible but thru reading? I am agree that if we do not understand something or want to clarify something, we should ask the one who knows better. To read and later on have some discussion with friends on our knowledge is a better way to generate the brain cells; instead of talking about nonsense thing at all time isn’t it. (Yeah, I am a talkative person that always talk about gossips, food, people and perkara2 lagha.. hahaha sorry..but then, stilli am not really a somebody to the world:P). I will appreciate the writer if he is doing something in what he talk, such as pergi kelas utk menambah ilmu or buat kelas utk tambah ilmu, organize something related to knowledge where he is one of the speaker (not the tetamu kehormat only) etc etc. If he seldom or hardly doing that how could he ask other people to do it..

Duhh.. I think if ISA has a list of people to be banned from speaking or writing publicly, I’ll be among the list. Seems like sometimes people were afraid too much to the truth until they were afraid of themselves. Oklah, let me have my precious, last breath at the age of 23 because within few hours more I am going to be OLD. Kui kui kui… See ya all later at my older age ok.. ;)

Friday, October 08, 2004

Woke up this morning i found out that i actually get some flu & it seems that my cough is getting worse. But then, al-Hamdulillah i am still fit to go to the office and doing my routine cores. erm, maybe i get to feel a little bit sleepy now..

Yeah, it's friday! It means end of the working week. Eish, seronok betul la.. Tambah2 kurang sihat ni, oklah.. Kalau early of the week ada harapan amik MC. This week i want to go back to my hometown, so sesapa dtg melaka sudi2lah singgah rumah saya;) Oh, aida..maybe if ada dtg melaka, bolehlah singgah teratak buruk aku ek. :D I just actually realized that i love to quote, "Oo, yeah?" as my statement. hahah My colleagues were teasing me as being western, tak sedar diri tu org melayu.. hehe but then, it is really..unconciously whenever i have something to ask, instead of saying "OO ye ke?" or "Iyer?" i will go for "Ooo, yeah?". Now, my colleagues answer to such question is "Yeah!"

BTW, i came across this statement from someone who religion was Islam before. It said about one verse in Bible saying that "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son (some book say his one and begotten son), that whoever believes in him shall not perish (or suffer the result of sin which is death) but have eternal life." I thought that in the bible it was mentioned not less than 3 sons of God- (if i am not mistaken) maybe someone can help me here? Any christian friend(s) or someone who learn about christian can tell me? :) . Hmm, if some non-muslim say that malaysia seems to have no freedom for other religions but Islam then i have to say "Sorry, i beg your pardon". As a muslim, i found out that actually all religions in Malaysia has been fairly treated. If not, there will be no church, no kuil, no tokong etc. And Islam got some place in the perlembagaan negara because at the time of independence, Islam has been put as agama rasmi negara. AGama rasmi which means in most adat istiadat. :) I have to say stop here before me myself and this blog being banned by ISA.. ehhe read about the attacks on personal blogs by the malaysian media.. wow, looks like all the malaysian has to shut-up your mouth closely whether u are directly or indirectly (or not mean at all) to attack the ehem ehem.. maybe you should read on aida's blog about this issue.:p

Well, to believe in Jesus i have to say Yes, I do.. aha, before someone misunderstood my statement i hope that pls read thru all of this paragraph and if anyone wants to quote my statement you are required to take the whole of the next version:

"I believe in Jesus a.s. as a muslim. Islam is the only religion in this world that put obligation to believe in Jesus as one part of Article of Faith (Rukun Iman). But, as a muslim, I believe that Jesus Isa a.s. is a human being, a prophet who acted as a messager of God and has been protected from doing sins".

If i am not mistaken as well, there are few verses in the Bible stating that Jesus a.s. asked his followers not to please him but to please the God. Well, maybe i am not that good or so knowledgeable about other religions. If there is any mistake i've done, pls do correct me. I'd love to learn more and more so that i won;t have misconception in other religions. So does it goes to my non-muslim (and muslim as well:) ) friends, i am free to talk about anything with all of you )insya-ALlah, by God willing) .

Now, i have to stop. Or else my boss is going to say, "You're fired!" (Macam dlm citer The attorney..ehheh kak qin punye pengaruh:P). So, hope to see ya all next time and other time. Insya-Allah. Till then, good luck and have a nice weekends. Byeee~~

Kuang3x

I know i am not supposed to feel lazy right now as today is the submission day/date for weekly report compilation and monthly report. Kuang kuang kuang. I just can't find some other words to describe it on Unky Moods.. What will come out for Busy + Lazy moods? :D I think the 'perfect' word in Malay is Kalut sih.

kui kui kui.

oh lupe nak ckp, To my Fly-Over fren, sorieler aku panggil ko fly-over... hohoho dah diam lamo sgt..tak nampak pun 'terbang2' nyer.. kekekek

nothing much

At last..
I'm fully done with my August Monthly Report after (if i can it like that) heavire alteration and auditing to the format. Though the report was already sent to higher management earlier, this one is (hope to be-Insya Allah) the master piece + smoother format to be used in the future. Next time i don't have to focus much on this formating and editing things anymore. Duh, it was quite hard to be here after the reorganization of the company. It seems like you have to start almost everything by scartch. Hope that next time i will be performed better. Looks like HRM is also facing so many problems and issues after the reorg. Now, it's the end of the month and week. And it is the time for my phone line to be a hot-line again. I told my boss, i do reallly need an assistant who can help me solves some of this 'kerja2 runcit' (as what my boss refered to). Actually, i haven't really start doing my real job. It is a matter of organizing everything back since the previous environment that i had and the operational things are not similar. Really wish that my boss don't go crazy over my slow motion works (maybe it was just me who feel like that.. )

I have not much to tell today. Just added few more favourite links, including AIDA's. AIDA nantila aku tulis cerita pasal ko ek, sekarang tak sempat la.. hahaha :P. I met Shelley today, another close & good friend kat MMU dulu esp. before i actively involved in organizations. Tak tahu pun rupanya dia pun ada blog. Takpelah, oklah tu tambah sorang lagi dlm blog communities. Since Shelley as she claimed in her blog is someone who is oftenly quite 'senyap sunyi sepi' dr kawan2, i think it is good for the friends to have her blog's address so that we know what is happening:p.

To Aida & Shell, kita added links pd korang ek, sorie tak sempat nak minta kebenaran. :P

Oh, by the way.. I am interested in some of Mudin's posting including among the latest on "Story of the Bamboo". You will never know what potential you have in yourself until one day it pops up from you, thru the experiences you gained and self nutured (betul ke aku eja ni? Mind my grammar OK. I can't speak correct Malays or English nowadays.. :"> )

Oklah, sampai di sini hari ni- I nak balik dulu. Teringat esok last hari keje minggu ni, tgh fikir mana satu yer nak dibuat cuti 2 hari ni..hmm..

I'tiraf

I still had that kind of 'dizzy head' yesterday evening when just before the time to go back i ate a piece of peanut-butter-spread-bread. Guess what, before that i hold a bottle of minyak angin cap kapak.. and the bread turned out to feel a little bit weird plus ade rasa cam berangin sket. Suddenly i found out that my head was already OK. heheh ade kawan ckp patut makan minyak angin tu awal2:))

Al-Hamdulillah.. :)

For those who frequently face the same 'sakit kepala' as i do, they know how hard it is when the time comes,. And how good it is when you were granted good health. As for me, this kind of 'sakit kepala' can take place for few days in which sometimes u cannot think or do even a thing; cannot eat much and need sleep all the time.

Within these few days i do not know why i was so into this song, "I'tiraf" - the soundtrack song for Raudhah film, sang by Raihan and Yasin. I thought i lost the cd i burned during my study time, tried to search for its mp3 but failed to find one. Al-Hamdulillah, i remembered a friend borrowed my cd and at last i managed to listen to I'tiraf. I guess this song means a lot to a dear friend out there, but this song means a lot to me as well. Somehow, listening to this song reminded me of all the old days i had since this song was popular when i was in my second year a.k.a. my SRC term. It has been quite sometimes already, i am getting older, the responsibility is bigger and heavier.. but the memories, the friendship i built, the knowledge, and experiences i gained remain fresh-still near to my heart.

Al-hamdulillah, again for HE gave me so much to learn and to understand in my life at this young age. (I know that i am not that young anymore:P).

Well, almost every year (since i started to see, figure out and expect something) during or near my birth-date I always get something i said as a gift from God. It can be anything, most of it I never experience or never expect to be in my life. I was given a successful achievement in my first attempt organizing event (MMU Run event under Student Intergration Program SIP 2000) when i reach 20th; I went to a student's trip to Middle East under project Delegasi Cyber-Bumi Anbiya' DCBA (did some students' program, visited a lot of places and did some shooting as well) ; al-Hamdulillah performed my 1st time umrah and came back to Malaysia few days before my 21st bday; confirmed as a permanent telekom staff in october 2002 -few days/a week before my 22nd bday + our program on travel to Middle East was on Astro for few weeks (Kembara Bumi Anbiya').. I don't remembered what was happened last year but eventually i received my first bonus (1/2 month bonus:P) from TM, the first time bonus i received in my time.. Yelah, dah first time pun keje kat telekom.. eheh

Think again, how lucky i am as compared to most people out there. Think again with that so many i received today.. nikmat paling utama ialah lahir dalam Islam dan membesar sebagai seorg Islam.. & rasanya tidakk ada nikmat teragung selain dapat memahami Islam dan mengetahui siapa Tuhannya - dgn cara yg bukan dr pandangan org lain atau ikut2an semata2... Al-Hamdulillah.

Oh, today i ate chicken porridge which taste almost like what my roomates and i prepared for ourselves during final year time- remind me of the time when we almost out of money to buy food because the scholarship fund was late. Suddenly i missed my ex-roommates (Siha & Siti) and my economics classes + classmates very much.. Lamanya tak pergi sekolah dah kan... hmm.
Now i think i really feel the oppurtunity cost of not enoughly attending my classes.. Sorry Dr Cheng for arguing so much in the class about this matter.. kui kui kui...

Halal & Haram Food

Salam buat semua.

My headache for these two-days does not seem to stop. It has been quite sometimes i don't get in such 'situation'. With no reason, tetibe menyerang pulak. Semalam, offis dikejutkan dengan berita one of the AGM's daugther was passed away due to demam denggi. She was just 11 years-old. Innalillahi wa innalillahi rajiun. Sampai semalam sahaja usia Allahyarham.

I received an email today regarding currently hot issue on halal food. If any of you came accross the news on a rushed at kilang sembelihan ayam & itik yg bercamput-aduk dgn anak babi, you will know about this posting. Actually, to the muslim- pork and dog (and any part of them) and alchoholic items (beverage, chocolates, food etc) are not permitable to consume. Even any food or materials that come into contact, being cooked or stored together is also not permitable to be consumed though that food is allowed to be eaten by muslims. If we look into the scientific findings, these type of food pork, dog and alchoholic items are full of bacterias and harmful to human's body. This also indicates that Islam does not allows the followers to harm themselves. To my non-muslim friends out there, if u feel like you want to know more regading this issue you may contact/inform me back ok.

So, to all -just an additional knowledge to you, no offends ok. To the muslims, sekadar berhati2 dgn apa yg kita makan. Wallahu a'lam.

Edisi KL: Ayam campur babi
Oleh Mohd Jamilul Anbia Md Denin dan Rudy Fazrunisyam Samarudin

SERDANG: Kerajaan Selangor mengarahkan kilang penyembelihan tanpa lesen di sini ditutup serta-merta kerana mencampuradukkan daging ayam dan itik yang dibungkus dalam plastik berlogo `Halal' diluluskan Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (Jakim) dengan beratus-ratus ketul anak babi siap diproses.

Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Tetap Perumahan, Pengurusan Bangunan dan Setinggan negeri, Datuk Mohd Mokhtar Ahmad Dahalan, berkata tindakan itu perlu kerana pihak berkenaan secara jelas melanggar peraturan yang ditetapkan kerajaan negeri.

Katanya, tindakan akan diambil mengikut Kanun Tanah Negara dan Akta Perancang Bandar termasuk merobohkan premis berkenaan atau merampas tanah yang diduduki."

Kerajaan memandang serius perkara ini kerana produk kilang itu untuk pasaran pengguna Islam, sedangkan mereka tidak pedulikan sensitiviti orang Islam.

"Saya percaya Jakim akan mengambil tindakan mengikut bidang kuasanya terhadap kilang berkenaan dan kita akan siasat bagaimana kilang terbabit boleh beroperasi sejak sekian lama," katanya kepada Harian Metro, malam tadi.

Beliau berkata demikian ketika mengulas tindakan Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri dan Hal Ehwal Pengguna (KDNHEP) bersama pegawai Jakim dan Jabatan Perkhidmatan Haiwan Selangor menyerbu kilang terbabit di Bukit Perindustrian Serdang, awal pagi kelmarin.

Dalam serbuan itu, anggota pasukan operasi berkenaan mendapati kebanyakan daging ayam dan itik yang disimpan bersama anak babi di dalam peti sejuk beku itu diedar kepada pengguna Islam di sekitar Lembah Klang, sejak sekian lama.

Menurut Mohd Mokhtar, beliau sendiri akan melawat kilang berkenaan bagi menyiasat perkara itu, hari ini."Beroperasi tanpa lesen adalah satu kesalahan dan melanggar peraturan yang dikeluarkan Jakim juga lagi kesalahan lain, kita tidak akan bertolak ansur dalam perkara ini dan akan mengarahkan mereka tutup segera," jelasnya.

Operasi bersama yang diketuai Timbalan Ketua KPDNHEP Kajang, Rosley Abdullah, pada jam 3 pagi itu, syarikat pengilang didakwa melakukan pelbagai kesalahan serius termasuk melakukan penyembelihan ayam secara tidak sah.

Rosley berkata, pengilang dan pemborong daging mentah terbabit dipercayai mendapatkan bekalan itik halal dari Taiping, Perak untuk pasaran tempatan.

"Namun, 150 ekor itik halal terbabit disimpan secara bercampur aduk bersama ratusan kotak berisi daging anak babi mentah yang didakwa hanya berusia dua minggu.

"Daging anak babi mentah itu yang dijual pada harga pasaran RM10 seekor dilihat bertaburan di atas lantai bilik beku berkenaan bersama daging ayam dan itik yang siap disembelih," katanya.

Menurutnya, perbuatan tidak bertanggungjawab itu yang pertama kali dibongkar, membuktikan pemilik kilang tidak sensitif dengan aspek produk halal yang perlu diasingkan sepenuhnya dengan produk haram.

"Melalui invois yang diteliti, pemborong itu dipercayai menjual ayam dan daging itik berkenaan di beberapa pasar raya besar di ibu kota termasuk kawasan kediaman di Taman Tun Dr Ismail.

"Daging anak babi yang diimport dari Vietnam itu pula dikesan untuk memenuhi permintaan pengusaha restoran dan peniaga pasar besar," katanya.Menurutnya, pengilang yang tidak mendapatkan lesen beroperasi daripada Majlis Perbandaran Subang Jaya (MPSJ) itu enggan mendedahkan pemilik sebenar premis berkenaan ketika disoal siasat.

"Kebanyakan mereka hanya mengaku sebagai kerani atau pekerja bawahan manakala enam pekerja warga asing Indonesia yang diupah bekerja di premis itu hanya berdiam diri.

"Malah mereka mendakwa tidak tahu bahawa mencampurkan babi dandaging lain di dalam satu peti sebagai kesalahan serius," katanya.

Menurutnya, siasatan pegawai Jakim juga mendapati ayam yangdisembelih di kilang terbabit turut melanggar hukum syarak hinggamenyebabkan ia 'haram' dimakan umat Islam.

"Pekerja Indonesia terbabit hanya melipat leher ayam sebelummenghirisnya dengan pisau tajam. Teknik ini yang dianggap sebagai 'sembelihcucuk' tidak memutuskan sepenuhnya urat di bahagian leher ayam sebaliknyaayam terbabit mati akibat direndam dalam air panas atau faktor lain.

"Cara penyembelihan itu hanya dijadikan sebagai `syarat'sampingan bagi membolehkan ia dianggap sebagai ayam halal untuk dijualkepada pengguna Islam," katanya.Menurutnya, penyembelihan ayam yang dilakukan oleh pekerjaIndonesia tidak bertauliah itu amat dikesalkan.

Rosley berkata, pemilik premis itu boleh dikenakan tindakanmengikut Akta Perihal Dagangan 1972 yang membawa hukuman denda RM250,000atau penjara lima tahun jika sabit kesalahan.

Berikutan kejadian itu, beliau menasihati orang ramaiberhati-hati dan tidak membeli ayam atau itik dari pasar raya atau peniagayang diragui.

"Sebaik-baiknya, belilah ayam dari penjual yang kita dapatlihat sendiri cara penyembelihan dan pemprosesan dilakukan," katanya.

Food

By the time i start typing, i cannot think about anything else but food. Feeling so hungry rite now. heheh . well. it's almost lunch time by the way.:P

Yesterday, i went to visit Hany and her newborn cute baby boy.. Another friend becomes a mother.. seronok jugak lah .. Tambah2 pi tgk ngan Laili dan Kak Lin and my beloved DCBA's nephew-Anas. Cuma kesian tgk Anas selsema dan badan dia kena virus gatal2. Tgk kak lin jaga anak dia, terfikir betapa sukarnya seorg ibu nak jaga anak dia. Sakit sikit, nangis sikit semua dah cukup utk risaukan hati ibu. Betapa seorg ibu tu buat macam2 utk redakan kegelisahan anak dia. Tgk Anas walaupun kecik2 gitu tapi bila sakit mesti nak mak dia. Hmm, takyah ckp la.. Kite dha besar2 ni pun serupa. Sakit demam sket terus ingat mak.. kekek While i guess i am the only auntie yg bermain2 ngan Anas agak 'ganas'.. and i really played with him.. Kak Lin sabar ajelah tgk org buat macam2 kat anak dia.. Sorry yer akak. Kak Lin sungguh tabah :P

By the way, i found a site that can 'describe' your feelings. A picture tells a thousand words. ;)

And.. not forgetten, it has been THREE YEARS already since 24/9/01. Happy Birthday DCBA. I am proud to be part of 'you'. Wish that all the DCBA's member dapat berkumpul balik macam dulu2. Hai, trip DCBA ke China and Australia nampaknyer tak tahuler dpt ke tak buat lagi.. Yg pasti, setiap kali tgk hadiah tafsir al-Quran dr Pusat Percetakan Al-Quran, Madinah and tgk gambar2 lama, makan garam (teringat laut mati) atau pakai lumpur laut mati.. terasa macam kejap je dah 3 thn berlalu. Rinduunya sgt2 pada masa tu kan..

Erm.. can't help it rite now. Nak gi makan dulu!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tata

Naugthy Friends

Last weekend i went to visit Amiir Husaini- heartrob Abg Faizal and Kak Syiqin at their lovely house in Tmn Bangi 3.

CacaMarba

It was raining last tuesday evening when i received a phone call from my boss asking me to bring all the information i have on the manpower planning to Wisma Telekom (next to Menara Telekom). By the time i went out, the rain was heavier. Pakai payung pun hanya bahagian atas pinggang je yg selamat, kat bawah dah lencun habis.. my main concern was my the-only-best-condition-shoes i currently have. Nampak gaya kena redah air hujan tu ada harapan beli kasut lain. And for the first time, i went back home without my handbag because it was already dark and it takes time for me to walk back to the office. Esok tu dtg ngan sehelai sepinggang macam ofis tu sebelah rumah jer.

I was too tired on the Wednesday, tapi still kena maintain siapkan keje. Sampai business plan (part 1) has been printed, fotostated, binded and submitted to Business Plan Committy barulah aku rasa lega sket. Tu pun tgk boss yg dah tak brape betul.. Die nak amik cuti 2 hari. Thursday morning i was too tired to go to the office, so i took urgent leave but then of course with my phone kept on ringing all the morning. But one thing i hate about taking leave is that when u come back to the office and find out that your mailbox is full. Tambah plak hari ni kena submit weekly report for centre's performance and touch-point initiative project.. Sometimes, working 5-days-a-week can be quite tiring.. and working at the HQ level u will never be stopped being disturb.

I read Hany's blog today.. waa seems like she gonna get new people in her family soon. May Allah be with you, and insya-Allah I pray that everything will be fine-the mother and the baby. Actually watching and seeing most of my friends with 'additional high belly' (pregnant) and some of them already have babies do attack my nerves. Hohoh dah tua sgt ke aku ni? :P I even asked some colleagues 'adakah saya ini kurang menarik?" and one of the answer was I will look better if i put down some weigth... opsss... kak shiqin pun ari tu kate makin bulat ek? ahhaha aiyaaa, it suddenly become so hard for me to go on diet.. tak boleht ahan laa..hari2 makanan semakin best dan semakin sedap dan semakin lazat..ekekek

apa2 pun.. i am happy to see my friends hidup bahagia.. mm apa lagi nak ckp yer..dah petang nak balik la.. malam nanti boleh pk nak buat apa esok2 kan..ok all, selamat hujung minggu sampai jumpa lagi..

oo, by the way, i'll have a hi-tea kat Seri Kampong (Bangsar) tommorrow.. (makan lagi.. kui kui kui)..

Business Plan

I was looking for something on the net when I came across this article. Well, looks like it is much suitable for the company's management at the time being. So, sempena utk semua yg tgh sibuk membuat business plan 2005 (esp. for Telekom's staff as I knew that currently everyone is working for it), i would like to share this article with all of you. Bolehlah juga nak kasi kat boss esp. yg suka sgttt ajak meeting even mende kecik2 pun meeting, lepas tu waste a lot of time kat bilik meeting with too many irrelevant ideas.

Happy reading and good luck in doing your business plan!;)

Thinking strategically
By Terry Goodyear

Ask most executives about business planning and they will tell you about the weeks of agony that merely culminate in hours of unsatisfactory meetings, prevarication and delay. While this may be a surprise, given that excutives have all the necessary statistics, data and report at their disposal, many still fumble their way through, which isn't the best way forward for companies. What's worse is that many companies go into the new financial year without their financial plans signed and sealed. The problem actually boils down to the lack of strategic thinking in decision-making.

To further illustrate this point, consider this question: If there are two companies that are in the same industry, producing the same goods and services, and are the same size in terms of assets and capital, what will determine the relative success of these two companies in two to five years' time? The answer? Ideas. Ideas that can be converted into business plans or propositions that in turn will enable the company to compete and grow.

In our post-industrial world, organisations are increasingly judged by their innovations, not their output. Still, converting ideas into sound business propositions is not as simple as it sounds. Many a time, ideas get lost in the organisation's so-called black holes, be it the perception that the top management will not like that particular idea, or that an idea — no matter how good it looks on paper — will not be workable, or the unwillingness to change the way things are done (the typical if-it-is-not-broken-why-fix-it attitude).

Compounding this are the countless meetings to discuss ideas that, at the end of the day, may only hit a brick wall. In fact, according to a recent study conducted by SCQuARE International in the UK, British businesses lose an estimated £12.3 billion a year on managerial time spent on ideas that are going nowhere and failed business pitches. On top of this, £10.8 billion is lost on unproductive meetings and £6.2 billion on the time-wasting effects of office politics.


The survey too found that two-thirds of the managers polled say they could save 10% or more of their time if they could avoid unproductive meetings. This is equivalent to 24 working days a year! At the same time, it was found that almost half the respondents waste the same amount of time on ideas that go nowhere.

Still, without ideas and innovation, a business cannot change and certainly cannot move forward. SCQuARE International's report reiterates the importance of innovation succinctly: Without innovation, a company will simply remain as it is, stagnate or die. Good management teams take a business forward through their ability to innovate and change. Given all the time spent on ideas that go nowhere, it is not enough simply to have a good idea. Any idea will clearly need to be sold through the system. And this is where SCQuARE International and the programmes they offer come in useful.

SCQuARE is a framework that ensures that a business plan, proposal or idea is thought through, authenticated and then structured in such a way that it has the greatest chance of success when delivered. Ross Lovelock and Roy Ashworth founded SQuARE, formerly known as Magnolia House, in 1993. Lovelock comes from a marketing background and has been dealing with fast- moving consumer goods companies for 20 years, with stints at Nestlé, Milk Marketing Board and PepsiCo International. Ashworth has 35 years of experience in finance, IT and was a systems specialist before co-founding SCQuARE. In 2000, the company was incorporated as SCQuARE International Ltd (SIL).

By using the SCQuARE methodology, one is able to sieve through the given information and reduce it to the critical issues that then allow decisions to be made quickly and decisively. The time taken to make decisions as such can be reduced by 50% to 90%. SCQuARE makes managers think before they act. Managers are taught to question conventional methods, they learn to understand key issues faced and the underlying causes, and are provided the structures and stimulus to explore creative solutions. SCQuARE guides participants through a step-by-step analysis of the situation, questioning and finding solutions from the questions. SCQuARE reads as:
S: Setting or strength — this can take the form of figuring out what is your aim or objectives.
C: Changes or complications — these could be a new set of circumstances, opportunities or threats. "C" also stands for consequences.
Qu: Question — this is the pivotal question that comes from the analysis of the above two factors. From here, one determines what is the next course of action in order to meet the objectives.
A: Answer — the answer to the pivotal question. Using the SCQuARE process, this answer will include a summary of the strategies to deal with the issues.
R: Recommendations — this is the action needed to implement the strategies in the answer.
E: Evidence — this is proof to show that each action is justified and the benefits that each action will generate.

SIL's global clients include Tesco, Pfizer, Marks & Spencer, Avis, PepsiCo, British American Tobacco (BAT), Nestlé and Philips, among others. SCQuARE has been in Malaysia since 1997 but as early as 1995, SCQuARE was introduced as part of a programme to impart the methodology to all BAT subsidiaries in Asia- Pacific. The founders of SCQuARE realised the potential and set up a regional office in Kuala Lumpur, which is headed by its managing director Philip Das. The regional office is designed to meet the growing need for strategic consultancy services in Southeast Asia. According to Das, clients in Malaysia include Akzo Noble (Regional) Danone, Telekom Malaysia, Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission, Multimedia Development Corp, some government agencies and multinational corporations.
The company's plans for Malaysia include broadening its local client base and tapping into local multinationals with significant business interests in China. Although the timing of SIL's entry into Malaysia could not have come at a worst possible time — at the start of the regional financial crisis — today, with the local and regional economies on the mend, there is optimism for the market.
There is an enormous appetite for learning here, what more the challenges brought by the Asean Free Trade Area. This means that companies that cannot move swiftly will be left behind. Today's companies need to execute strategies with speed and they need to be focused. Besides strategic decision-making skills, SCQuARE is invaluable for all management levels as it allows executives to think. It not only allows top management to focus on leadership but also creates a new set of thinkers and leaders that in turn will help narrow the leadership gap. SCQuARE conducts three to four-day courses, which also include workshops and learning sessions as well as support services. For more info check out www.scquare.com.my

Sekali lagi mencuba..

Hi all,
This is the third day i try to update my blog. Do not know why i face so much difficulties this time to update my blog but i believe that Allh knows better. I am so proud today to find out that actually i am in a class with a great person. Never thought that the person is actually a well-known someone in the book writers. So, here i am with the 'typing' i did last few days. If there is any missunderstood, may Allah forgives me in my mistakes.. Wa''alahualam.

====
Salam buat semua teman.
Apa kabar agaknyer kwn2 semua? Lama betul rasanya tak menaip di sini untuk sesuatu yg bererti. Alasan yg biasa didengar, tak lapuk dek hujan tak lekang dek panas itulah dia kesempitan waktu di ofis. Al-maklumlah, tempat baru kenalah amik ati boss dulu. Plus, sekarang pukul 7.30 mlm mmg dah wajib kena keluar dr menara telekom memandangkan projek pancaran satelit demi Malaysia Gemilang sedang diadakan sampailah 22 September nanti.. Terima kasih buat kwn2 yg bertanya, terasa ade juga yg menghargai.. ehhe sorry sgt2 sbb tak sempat nak update buat jangkamasa yg agak lama..

Rindu rasanya dgn kwn2.. agak2nyer u all pun rindu kat kite la kan sbb lama tak dgr khabar.. sampai ade seorg kwn kate, kalau tak dpt pjg2 pun tulislah sikit2 at least kitorang tau ape yg berlaku.. uhu, terima kasih ..terasa sayu sikit bile dengo ade org amik berat pasal kite ni..terharu sungguh.. apa2 pun ttg tempat baru ini, as how good it is as compared to previous place, still I really miss the FOOD (especially:P) masa kat Bkt Mahkamah dulu..and miss the friends I have there as well (mostly missing from my heart:( )

Mmg byk sgt yg berlaku sampai tak menang otak nak piker, dan tak cukup tgn rasanya nak tulis satu2 ape yg terlintas. Mungkin agaknya otak tu dha lama dibiarkan beku, tiba2 mendapat impak yg nampaknya al-Hamdulillah dah menjana semula akal pemikiran.. Sepertinya terasa zarah2 darah mengalir pantas ke otak dan sel2 otak berkembang, bercambah dan bertambah dgn sgt cepat .. ‘Mesin’ anugerah Allah ini nampaknyer dah kembali berfungsi semula membuang karat2 dlm fikiran..

Oh, terlalu byk pula melalut.. Sekadar nak membawa kupasan ttg masyarat.. Aku tgk ada beberapa org kwn yg masih rajin update blog, ade juga nampaknyer dah dilamun angin cinta.. Al-Hamdulillah atas kebahagiaan kalian... Mmg cinta itu buat manusia rasa indah.. Dan bagi yg tak bercinta lagi, atau sedang menunggu cinta.. Cinta Allah itu masih mekar menunggu utk diperhati dan dihayati.. Cinta yg tak pernah berhenti keindahannya…

Hopefully that I can give some input here. First of all, sebelum memulakan bicara I am sorry with this kind of new concept I practise in writing blog. Pls understand that my intention is not to back-fire someone else input, just to share a little bit knowledge I gained from HIM, the Almighty Allah SWT. In this current and modern world, kita perlu berhati2 dlm meniti kehidupan. The reason is that mengambil byk hadis2 drpd Rasulullah SAW ttg kemusnahan dan kesesatan berleluasa yg akan berlaku di akhir zaman.. Sbb tu kita disuruh berpegang sungguh2 pada (pertama) Al-Quran dan (kedua) Sunnah. Pernah juga aku dgr pendapat ttg perlunya berada dan berbaik dgn 4 org lagi yg bersama2 kita di atas kebenaran.. Nikmat menjadi seorg Islam sebenarnyer terlalu indah sbb hanya org yg pernah menjadi seorg Islam tau ttg perasaan indah dan tenang yg dirasai. Seperti perasaan cinta, hanya org yg pernah bercinta tau macam mana nak describe rasa tu.. Dan tak mustahil juga, walau dah putus cinta berkali2, pasti ada perasaan ingin kembali merasai perasaan itu. Begitulah indahnya Islam itu.

Kalau ada yg mengatakan Islam tidak adil, tidak relevan atau tidak bebas/merdeka.. Maka maafkanlah mereka atas kejahilan mereka. Walaupun bergunung harta dimiliki, dan bergulung kelulusan mereka kecapi. Sbbnya mereka masih belum mampu berfikir dgn waras dan seimbang. Itulah namanya hentam semberono tanpa membuat kajian terlebih dahulu. Jgn lihat org yg hanya ada ilmu dunia shj, kdg2 lagaknya dan sijil2 nya sahaja lulusan agama tapi caranya, bahasnya, fikirnya entah dr kupasan dan fahaman mana yg dicari..

Tugas kita untuk memperbetulkan kembali dgn cara2 spt. mendapatkan kelulusan lebih tinggi atau sama dgn org tersebut, dan menjadi seorg yg terkemuka dlm dunia. Lepas tu bolehlah buat apa yg kita nak buat, macam Henry Ford buat. Tapi, itu mmg sukar kan.. So, tugas utama ialah kita mencari ilmu dan mengislahkan seberapa byk kwn2 kita supaya dpt disampai2kan kepada org lain.. Berkongsi sedikit2 ilmu kita. Betul tak..

Sebenarnya, bukan Islam sahaja yg tak merdeka dan tak adil di bumi yg ‘bertuah’ ini.. Semua agama pun sama, kalau tak takkan ada kes bunuh satu keluarga saudara baru kerana menukar anutan dr Hindu ke Islam.. dan takkan ada kisah sukarnya saudara baru bila diherdik dan dibuang keluarga bila menukar kepada Islam di Malaysia.. Cuma, media tak mendedahkan perkara ini kerana bimbang berlaku rusuhan keagamaan.. Well, that so-called sensitive issues.

Bukan sedikit jumlah org yg membaca sebahagian shj ayat al-Quran Surah al-Baqarah ayat 226 (2:226) yg bermaksud: Tidak ada paksaan di dalam beragama .. KERANA kebenaran itu telah jelas dari kebathilan. Melihat dr konteks yg berbeza, ayat ini pun dah cukup untuk menyuruh mencari di mana keburukan Islam berbanding mana2 agama atau mana2 fahaman sekalipun .. Sesungguhnya, tidak ada walau satu pun.. Yg silap dan ada hanyalah fahaman dan sekatan yg dilakukan oleh tangan2 bernama manusia..

I guess the main point for us to do before launch attack on someone with such bad statement about Islam is to get to reason of the statement. On that basis, only then we know why they like to have bad impression about Islam. Maybe they were treated badly by that so-called muslims, or they found out about bad practise by ‘this’ muslims. In order to do that I believe the main point is that be brave and firm but stay calm and cool.. It is HARD to do, but then lets Allah help us to face and correct the perspective of Islam from the eyes of not even the non-muslims but the muslims as well.

Still, my knowledge is verrrryyyy limited. From HIM I came, and to HIM I return. Kalau ada kelemahan di atas apa yg saya katakana, maka kelemahan itu adalah atas diri saya yg masih belum cukup ilmu di dada. Kalau nak berdiskusi panjang, insya-Allah boleh jer.. Cuma utk saya tulis terlalu panjang, tak cukup masa pula. Harap2 kelak tulisan saya tidak menjadi fitnah kepada masyarakat. Wa’allahualam.

Looks like i have to pen-off (keyboard-off?) now.. So, hope to see me back in the future, insya-Allah. Take care all.. wasalam.

New Invention

A'uzubillahhiminsyaitan nirrojim..
Bismillahirrahman nirahim

Salam buat semua..
It has been quite sometimes since the last time i wrote something here. I thought that i could spend sometimes to share my thought with my fellow friends, but.. kitakan hanya merancang..

Oo yea, last time i mentioned about 'the creation of Hawa from the left rib of Adam' that was being stated in the Bible, not in the Holy Quran. Actually, in the Sahih Bukhari (one of the 5 largest/biggest hadith source) it was mentioned in 2 hadith(2 ayat) that state this:

Hadis #1: Narrator: AbuHurayrah
Reference: SAHIH AL-BUKHARI
Hadith_No: 7.113
Full_text: Allah's Apostle (peace_be_upon_him) said, "The woman is like a rib; if you try to straighten her, she will break. So if you want to get benefit from her, do so while she still has some crookedness."

Hadis #2: Narrator: AbuHurayrah
Reference: SAHIH AL-BUKHARI
Hadith_No: 7.114
Full_text:The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said, "Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should not hurt (trouble) his neighbour. And I advise you to take care of the women, for they are created from a rib and the most crooked portion of the rib is its upper part. If you try to straighten it, it will break, and if you leave it, it will remain crooked, so I urge you to take care of the women.

This thing i found out in an article (click here to read the article). What was written there i believe is enough to clarify how and why i raised up this issue again in two-posting. I am not someone who is so knowledgable in the things about Islam, but i wish to share and get feedback from my friends who knew better than i do. In 1400 years, the muslims have been influenced with so many stories, narrations, mystic etc etc that sometimes we found it is hard to denied as it has been part and parcel of our culture; our blood and mind. To interfere with something new, i believe is not wrong as Rasulullah SAW as well came up with 'new religion' (as according to Ignorance Arab Quraish) as long as it does not at all fall out from The Holy Al-Quran. Wa'allahualam.

Ops.. my lunch time is over already. I got to go back to my work. So, utk semua take good care and wish u all the best. May Allah SWT always be with you, proctect you and guide you on the right path. Bye~~

Wasalam.

Simbolik

Salam buat semua.

Tak banyak yang nak aku perkatakan. I am quite 'busy' lately. Doing work and personal things. I was on leave yesterday. Seems like it is still hard for me to keep on updating my blog although with simple words (maybe the main reason is that i have a lotttt to think and to tell out..). Actually, i was thinking about writting something this morning but it turned out to be blog reading instead. Wow, looks like a 'friend' in this blog community has new admirer on his blog, the one that we were once called cikgu (since he was the first one introduce us about blogging..hehe:P) .

Sometimes i thought that i might actually have a syndrom (if i can call it by that name), or is it a special disease? I thought i might actually have a 'heart disease' the kind of disease mentioned by Rasulullah SAW as kecintaan kepada dunia, diri sendiri etc. part of it is riak kepada kelebihan diri, feel you are superior than anyone. But then when i found out about the article, i try to istigfar myself and try to see whether i have fall onto the criteria. Al-Hamdulillah. so far i managed to control myself. Then, what is it actually happening to me until i said i might have a syndrom? Well, i am alwayss LOVE to debate with people as i believe it is not just to see whether u-are-wrong-and-i-am-right, but it is far beyond that. I believe that I do not know much and thru this kind of discussion i might learn something good for my knowledge. I love to ask people a lot of question until i feel there is no more doubt inside my heart. If i knew something, i would like to share it as well who knows actually i am getting the wrong-side of information and if i do not know anything, i will say "i don't know about it" and keep on listening to whateva being told. There are few people who feel offended with my way (and i am sorry about that, it is not my intention to look little/down on people). Maybe the syndrom is actually a gift from Allah SWT as I am not going to talk too much as i need the strength to talk as few as possible and as whateva needed only. Hehe, you may want to knw this but some of my friends already saw it by their eyes: my body temperature suddenly drop, i felt cold and shaking the whole body. This is most of the time happen when i am in the religious discussion.. Maybe itulah peringatan dr Allah SWT untuk diri sendiri.. :)

I have just learn that kejadian Hawa dr tulang rusuk kiri Adam a.s was never mentioned in the al-Quran (not sure about the Hadis, if anyone has it can you give it to me?). It is just mentioned in the al-Quran that Hawa dijadikan dr Adam but from and how is not mentioned. The statement that Hawa is from tulang rusuk was mentioned in the Bible. How true it is, i am still looking forward for the evidence and will come back to all of u once i found it out. :)

Oh, heard that Telekom Malaysia is going to work 5-days-a-week, from 8.30pm - 5.30 pm (duhh! lewatnyerr.. but the saturday is going to be a WONDERful day). Still, i have a lot to say. But, still my time is limited. Wonder how come some people has sooo much of their own time and still get thingss done while some people has no time but still cannot get things done (just like me!).

So, i shall say goodbye and hope to see all of you back in one piece next week. Bye all!!
~~Selamat Pengantin Baru to Ecah & Ayiel also.. ~~

Working Life

Yesterday I watched 3R: issue on working life, in which I already planned to watch as the ads showed this time issue was about hectic and busy working life until you have no time for your ownself. Indirectly terasa jugalah dengan isu kali ni, but then after watched it out I realized that it seems to be a norm in our community for working so hard. Something so funny about this ‘talk’ was the 3 characters represent by Cik Minah Control : a woman who cannot trust anyone in doing works and she wants to do everything herself; Cik Minah Gila Kerja : a woman who always has no time for herself, her family and her friends. All in her mind is work, work and work only; and lastly Cik Minah Pemalu : a woman who is sooo shy and mix among her limited number of friends known from her workplace only. The way of managing each lifestyle is by make a list and try to distribute the works among colleagues while not doing things alone, divide time to work and time for personal matters as work is not as important as the people around you that you love, and try to join organizations such as kelas memasak, badminton, yoga etc. where you can meet and have new friends and share your hobbies. Interaction within group is easier to start than face-to-face conversation.

By the way, a thank for my friend for the courage and support that made me take another step in gaining more knowledge. It seems to be ‘centuries’ for me to fulfil my dream of doing it. So funny isn’t it someone like me suddenly said that I a afraid to go on. Al-Hamdulillah, maybe I can’t contribute much due to my limited knowledge and short term memories but hopefully I will gain as much as possible. I am no better than you friend. Thank you for leading the way for me, at least I knew someone who is really doing things that I wish I could do earlier.

Yeah, it is not good to depend on somebody to make ur own decision. But, sometimes the feeling of inferiority or not good enough make us feel better (at least, if not that comfortable) to have someone we knew to support and show us the strength to face the world. I might look tough, but I am a human being who still have the ‘what is..’ thought in my mind.. Opss, it is already time to go back.. So, friends hope that I can keep on updating myself with this blog as I have a lot to share and a lot to tell you out there. However, in the end it will be in the Hands of The Almighty Allah SWT to determine everything.. kan;)

Bye all..

Tanya Sama Itu Hud-Hud

Lepas PHSM (Pontianak Harum Sundal Malam) yg ambil puisi raja ali haji, kini satu lagi plak epik/mitos/lagenda terkenal tanah melayu PGL (Puteri Gunung Ledang) nak ditayangkan. hehehe nampaknyer ade org dah chop tajuk entry ni. Tapi, takpelah sekadar nak masukkan juga:

Hang Tuah: Kanda lupa cinta dinda seagung maya
Gusti Putri: Cinta kanda? Bukan semesta luasnya?
Hang Tuah: Masih kecil berbanding cinta dinda!
Gusti Putri: Tapi kanda ke mari juga
Hang Tuah: Laksana orang haus dahaga, berjumpa air satu telaga

p/s: Gusti Putri ialah Puteri Gunung Ledang.. jgn marah.. :p

Sekadar pertanyaan, sebenarnyer puteri gunung ledang tu mmg kekasih hang tuah ke? kenapa tak pernah tau dlm mana2 hikayat sebelum ni.. and puteri gunung ledang tu hanya mitos je ler semata2 ek? tapi, kenapaler tiapkali pi dok kat gunung ledang (esp. kat air terjun atas tu) bagi sesiapa yg perasan ade rasa yg sket 'aneh' kat situ?
mm mmg ada khabar angin kate hang tuah lepas bunuh jebat lari masuk hutan gunung ledang dan kemudian tak ditemui langsung.. cumanya kebenarannya, tak tahula..takde sape yg dpt memastikan..

kan best kalau org dpt selesaikan apa yg terbuku di hati dan bermain di fikiran..?? takkan aku nak tanya pada hud-hud plak kan.. ;)

Cuti lagi

Pagi tadi hujan lebat.. hampir2 je aku nak amik urgent leave bila tiba2 teringat hari ni byk janji utk hantar macam2 report kat org. In the end, dgn rasa malas aku pun bergeraklah utk pergi kerja.

Hmm..keje kalau cerite tak pernah habis, tak pernah juga tak sibuk dan tak pernah selesai2.. Cuma tekanan aku rasa, agak kurang dibandingkan dgn dulu. Maybe i have some free space for myself and i was not being 'indirectly tortured' for doing the works. AL-Hamdulillah, itu je lah dpt aku ckp buat masa ni. Tak tahuler esok lusa tetibe bosses buat hal plak.

Esok ade seorg lagi sedara kawin. So sekarang kena pulang dahulu. Balik kampung. Tak byk boleh cerite, sekadar ucapkan selamat berehat di hujung minggu utk semua.

Sampai jumpa lagi...

IMAM

Al-Hamdulillah in the end I was able to  have a complete phone, internet connection and pass card to move in and out from the office. And in the end as well, my profile has been updated (by the help of ITD Helpdesk of course). I thought I would have some time yesterday to update my blog but seems like I was having a forever-never-ending meeting. Have it ever happened to you before? You were having an important meeting; when u thought u want to come earlier than usual but it turns out to be late. U awaken 15 minutes earlier than usual time, and hope that u could went to the office at least 10 minutes earlier than usual, but the bus suddenly did not turn up at usual time, u turn out to be late, your bosses already headed to the meeting while u were just came into the office and the food u order for the meeting was not there at the moment everyone was already there. Well, that was what really happen yesterday, but I tried to calm myself. Dlm hati keep on berdoa hanya Allah sahaja yg tahu jgnlah mereka bising2. The day before the meeting I was being scolded by a manager for wrongly communicated things (it was not my fault due to adhoc meeting and changed in the agenda, but maybe it was my mistakes of not knowing how to communicate the changing agenda to other people) ; and the day after really in the very morning the superior /head of that manager sent email to my GM by including all the messages we delivered to each other telling him about what was happen and consult her to arrange things properly. Takpelah, cabaran dlm kerjaya. Kalau dok BC jaga centre usually that is what will be happened, everyone will blames u this and that. As one friend said, life can gives you a hundred reasons to cry but still u can give life a thousand reasons to smile. Apa2 pun, mungkin this is part of ujian Allah untuk menguji kesabaran.
 
 
O, I forget to tell you all that I read a book written by Abdullah Hussain: Imam, the winner of Hadiah Novel Nasional 1992/94. A great stuff not just for a hobby or leisure time, but knowledgeable! It is not just a novel about life, but more than that. As the judge comment, each episode has two functions: I learnt a lot from this book. Thou the story was mainly about the life of an Imam Masjid, perjuangan dan pembaharuan yg dibuatnya really make sense and it will be great if other Imams in Malaysia (secara khususnya) or all the Muslim leaders/imams as the whole mempraktikkan apa2 yg diperkatakan. Good also for the muslim leaders in the community, state or even national, as I believe most of us think just like him. and maybe it is good also for us, rakyat marhain biasa muslim and non muslim– boleh membuka minda dan pandangan kita ttg Islam..
 
Dunia itu penjara org mukmin. Bila kita terasa utk melakukan sesuatu perubahan ke arah kebaikan dan mengangkat martabat Islam kita pasti akan berhadapan dengan pelbagai halangan-samada drpd yg bukan islam sehinggalah kepada islam, dr sekecil2 peranan dlm masyarakat sehinggalah kepada pemimpin atau pihak yg berkuasa. Tapi bila nak buat jahat, takdelah susah sgt kan. Itulah ujian. Bak kata Haji Mihad (dlm novel Imam ni lah), perubahan itu penuh like dan cabaran; tetapi perubahan itu sendiri tidak dapt ditahan2. Perubahan itu laksana cahaya yang terkurung yang akan mencari jalan merembas keluar melalui rongga atau retak seseni apa sekalipun.
 
Oklah, my boss sits very near to me (we don’t have real place currently, so we sit at the same cubicle). And die pun dah tegur pasal dok naip tak henti2.. takut keje tak siap:D Sampai jumpa lagi, take care all..

Welcoming Back

Lama aku menghilang.. Beberapa sebab antaranya setup tempat baru dan availability of the pc menyebabkan aku hampir tak sempat nak menyentuh isu baru. Apa2 pun al-Hamdulillah, at last i have my pc back. Tak kisahlah apa pun yg telah berlaku, hingga aku terpakse ambil urgent leave cuma yg penting Allah dah lembutkan hati seseorg utk benarkan aku ambil pc.

Well, tempat baru really feel like in winter season. Bezanya, aku tak pakai baju cukup tebal jer lagi. Last time i bought a long jacket/blazer macam dlm cerite winter sonata yg U-jin pakai . Kat bkt mahkamah tak boleh pakai sbb agak panas, tapi kat sini hari2 kena pakai. Oklah, tak perlu pergi jauh kalau terasa nak bergaya dengan fesyen musim sejuk. ehhe cumanya, kejap je aku kat sini. tak lama lagi mungkin dah dpt arahan utk pindah ke menara plak.. makin jauh perjalanan waktu pagi aku, and makin lambatler nak sampai ke ofis.. isk, punch card merah bakal mewarnai hidup aku la nampaknyer...

utk teman2, maapler yer. cik ekonomi tak dpt ler nak komen ape2 lagi ttg dunia luar sekarang. 'dunia dlm' ni masih tak dpt nak stabilize lagi. insya-Allah tak lama lagi kalau dah berjaya stabilize everything i will be back. Ibarat kate my new boss, we are going to be very busy at least for the first 6 months. 6 MONTHS? meaning until end of the year? :)) but for sure, this year is going to be a busy one for me...

mm cepat betul masa berlalu. mungkin ada antara kita yg sudah risau ttg hari muka, terfikir betapa ramai yg telah menemui jalan kehidupan masing2, mungkin tak penah penat utk berfikir ttg kawan2 yg dah kawin + beranak pinak sedangkan diri masih tak berjumpa sesiapa. Atau alternatif yg paling mudah, lupakan sahaja yg lain (mcm dlm iklan pencuci baju daia). teruskan kehidupan, tak perlu fikir apa2 dah.. i am currently practising that. jgn ditanya lagi pasal cinta, kawin, tunang, calon etc etc. I am tired of that already. At the age of 24? yeah, that is right. We don't ask ppl bila nak dpt degree, master, phD, bila nak bukak bisnes, jadi kaya etc etc kan. We just said kalau ade rezeki, insya-Allah tak kemana. So does in this matter..

Mungkin ada betulnya, dah terlalu ramai yg sibuk mengira bintang di langit, dan terlalu ramai membukit-bukit berkejar-kejaran mencari gunung tertinggi nak menggapai bintang2 yg bersinar utk jadikan itu milik mereka. aku masih rasa biarlah, cahaya bulan aku tetap dpt juga. sinar bintang masih mampu aku kagumi. yg pasti, pasir di bumi dpt aku rasa kasar dan seleraknya.. air di kaki masih dpt aku rasa sejuknya. laut di situ masih aku rasa masinnya, sungai yg mengalir masih aku rasa tawarnya. cukuplah itu buat sementara waktu ini utkku.

melalut pula. hari ni sempat aku curi sedikit masa aku hari ni utk stay kat ofis yg terpencil ni. nasib baik hujan, so masih ade beberapa org kat ofis. sekejap lagi waktu utk aku pulang.. so itulah, takde ape2 nak cerite. sekadar teringat, tak lama lagi dah masuk rejab, syaaban..lepas tu ramadhan semula. teringat ttg lailatulqadar. masanya mungkin dah tiba utk perbaiki amal diri sendiri kalau mmg malam itu yg dicari. Doa buat semua, moga Allah pertemukan kalian dgn malam tersebut. Insya-Allah.
