Jom Jangan Mengumpat

Hari ini hari Jumaat.
Yay, esok cuti! Weekend ni mungkin busy sebab pelbagai aktiviti telah dirancang.

Mesej hari ini jangan berprasangka & mengumpat.


Surah Al-Hujurat: 12

Habis tu, tak boleh cakap pasal orang lain langsung lah ya? Ustazah cakap, boleh... kalau berbincang untuk mencari penyelesaian sesuatu masalah yang melibatkan individu tersebut. Maknanya niatnya bukan untuk mencari salah atau menyebarkan keburukan, tapi untuk menjernihkan keadaan.

Memang susah nak tahan mulut ni daripada mengumpat. Somehow cerita pasal orang atau lebih tepat mengata orang ni seronok sebab setan jadi tukang sorak. Peringatan untuk diri sendiri, diam adalah lebih baik daripada mengumpat.

Honey's 1st Birthday Bash

Huhuu 'birthday bash' lah sangat. Nak panggil birthday party pun tak layak. Just a small gathering with close family members, that was it.

On Honey's birthday, which was Thursday, Oct 11 (~1 1/2 bulan yang lalu), just me & JD with Honey, the 1 year old birthday girl, celebrated the day at home after work. Just a cake, for the sake of taking photos.


But since it was a special day for Honey, JD gave her a chance to eat the cake by herself. Well, comot lah mulut, tangan & lantai.


Then on Saturday, Nenek sponsored Honey's cake. Thank you Nenek & Mak Mok for the cake... cantik!


Honey was excited when she had been given a chance to stand on the chair with a plastic cake knife & colorful cake in front of her.


It has been a very blessing 1 year for me. Honey I want you to know that Mama love you so much, a second more after forever.


(Anuar~Zain's song but I prefer Jaclyn~Victor's version during Juara~Lagu)

Boikot

Dulu, aku tak lah berminat sangat nak memboikot. For me, I didn't find that my role was significant enough to give impact. Rasa macam sama je kalau boikot dengan tak boikot. Until when I was in Jakarta early last month, aku terbaca satu blog bercerita pasal iklan yang telah diluluskan oleh US untuk dipaparkan di subway station, bas etc.


How come US boleh luluskan this kind of advertisment even just for 4 weeks?? From that day on, aku bertekad untuk boikot produk US. I whatsapped JD, told him that no more Shell after this. Siap tekad no more Coach, DKNY & Levi's. Tak kisah lah aku sorang je yang boikot. It just that, I myself despise them & I have lost interest to purchase their products.

Apabila Palestin diserang rejim Zionis laknatullah, kempen memboikot barangan Israel & yang menyumbang kepada Israel kembali hangat. Ada yang bersungguh2, ada juga yang begitu pessimist menganggap ini isu bermusim. Ada juga yang rasa tak guna memboikot atas pelbagai alasan. Kalau dulu, I thought it might be difficult for us to understand since we were not that exposed to the outside world. But now where FB, blog & other social medias are powerful & has becoming part of our life, just hard to believe that there are still ignorant people out there especially among young generation.


Lucky for me, based on the list above it won't be hard for me to boycott. I'm not a coffee lover & I don't even find it cool to hang out at Starbucks & pretend like I enjoy the coffee. I used to be DKNY perfume & Loreal skin care user, but I didn't mind to switch to any other products & I did switch. The hardest one to boycott will be McD. Huhuu. But somehow, I didn't even know that they gave free breakfast last Monday.

On Wednesday morning, as usual menonton MHI ketika menyiapkan Honey. I like the idea of the show guest. One of the way to stop Israel is by giving pressure to US. Dia bagi contoh ketika Perang Ramadan pada tahun 1973 kot. Pengeluar2 minyak yang mostly as we know adalah negara2 Islam, menaikkan harga minyak yang dieksport ke US (since diorang tak eksport ke Israel). As we know, US penyokong kuat Israel (& depa tak kisah orang tau sebab tu lah iklan support Israel tu pun boleh diluluskan). Israel sendiri rasanya takkan seberani itu kalau takde geng yang kuat macam US. As for US plak, depa lah untung sebab boleh bekalkan senjata (just a theory but I believe it) & ekonomi tak tergugat pun sebab orang dok fokus on camna nak melumpuhkan ekonomi Israel dengan cara memboikot terutamanya McD. But it's time to stop questioning others. We should ask ourselves instead what are we going to do.

Masing2 ada cara tersendiri untuk membantu Palestin termasuklah dengan cara memboikot... sampai macam nak bergaduh plak sebab isu boikot ni. Apa pun let's not be judgemental when we see others at McD or Starbucks. For some of us, maybe dia tak boikot McD, tapi maybe banyak benda lain yang dia boikot begitu juga sebaliknya. Ada yang boleh boikot McD, tapi tak sanggup tak minum kopi Starbucks. Or maybe tak boikot langsung. As I said masing2 ada cara tersendiri.

Gencatan senjata dah dicapai. But still Palestine is not free. Keep praying for the safety of all our brothers & sisters k.

Sehari Selepas Maal Hijrah

Regarding to the previous post, kalau ada yang baca (kalau ada lah) maybe akan terlintas di fikiran, 'Dah alim dah budak ni...' Huhuu I wish! InsyaAllah. Ya lah, sampai bila nak jadi tak alim kan. Sampai bila?? Moga umur panjang & sempat menuju ke tahap itu.

Actually I was giving lecture to myself. Aku lah tu yang kengkonon masih belum 'bersedia', kadang² rasa menyampah pun ada (astagfirullahal'azim...), pastu dok berkira² cukup ke tak duit & masa. But as I mentioned, kene paksa diri. So I'm pushing myself to become a better Muslim, insyaAllah. One of the way is by writing a reminder for myself just like this & previous posts.

Alhamdulillah, hari ini 2 Muharam 1434H, aktiviti yang dirancang dapat dijalankan. Moga Allah terangkan hati & permudahkan jalan kami untuk terus istiqamah. Semoga usaha kami mendapat keredhaan & keberkatanNya.

Ketika kita masih mood tahun baru, mood cuti panjang bagi yang sambung cuti, kita dikejutkan dengan berita Palestin diserang Israel. Sama² lah kita berdoa semoga Allah melindungi & menyelamatkan saudara² kita bukan sahaja di Palestin, malah di Syria & di mana sahaja. Kalau nak derma via sms, boleh ikut step di bawah:


Sesungguhnya kehidupan di dunia ini hanyalah sementara...

Hijrah

Selamat Tahun Baru 1434 hijrah!

Di waktu pagi, sambil melayan si kecil, sempat menonton Selami~Jiwa di Astro Oasis. Topik pagi tadi adalah berkenaan dengan taubat. Jamal~Abdillah & Sham~Kamikaze menjadi tetamu jemputan.

Aku tertarik dengan cerita Sham on how dia menerima hidayah. Akhirnya doa si ibu selama ini makbul apabila si anak berhijrah. Sama ada hidayah dicari atau datang sendiri, yang penting kemahuan untuk bertaubat & menjadi Muslim yang lebih baik.

Menurut Dr. Fadzillah~Kamsah, ni sebab² orang bertangguh untuk bertaubat...


Aku suka point no. 2 & 5. Mungkin tanpa kita sedari kita telah menerima hidayah, tapi kita menolak. Mungkin datang dalam bentuk yang tak kita senangi, membuatkan kita rasa menyampah, tapi sedar benda tu baik. So kita ada pilihan, nak ikut dalam keterpaksaan atau tolak mentah² sebab ikutkan rasa menyampah tu. Or just plainly menolak kerana belum 'bersedia'. Err tapi kalau setiap kali diajak kepada kebaikan kita rasa menyampah, mungkin nak kene rujuk point no. 1 & lain² point kot.

Baru² ni aku ada baca satu blog & terbaca komen... kalau tak ikhlas, lebih baik tak yah pakai tudung. Typical comment,isn't it? Aku juga pernah dengar, dalam beribadat ni kita kene buat walaupun terpaksa lagi² untuk perkara yang wajib. Contoh solat, tak ikhlas camna pun, kene buat. Bersedekah walaupun tak wajib, tapi buatlah walaupun tak ikhlas. Untuk bimbing hati jadi ikhlas, kene buat secara berterusan, istiqomah. Mula² terpaksa, lama² terbiasa & jadi ikhlas, insyaAllah.

Oppss dah macam ustazah lak... ^_^. Selalu merapu, sekali-sekala share benda yang baik sebagai ingatan untuk diri sendiri gak. Mana tau sempena tahun baru ni menjadi amalan yang berterusan ;-).

Point no. 6 juga menarik. Kadang² nak buat benda yang baik perlukan duit. Mula lah berkira² cukup ke duit aku. Kalau cukup pun, cukup² & berkuranglah duit. Dah berbelah bagi hati ni nak teruskan ke taknak. Tapi kalau nak dibandingkan duit yang dibelanja ke jalan Allah tu dengan nikmat yang telah diberikanNya selama ini, apa lah sangat kan nilai duit tu.

Salah satu cara untuk mencari hidayah ialah dengan membaca & memahami al-Quran...

To Excel - Part 1

Sekarang ni kan musim exam SPM. At the same time, last few weeks, musim ambil report card & majlis penyampaian hadiah. Time tu ramai friends wish good luck to SPM candidates, update pasal pencapaian anak sekolah & upload pic anak ambil hadiah dalam FB.

Impress gak... terdetik dalam hati, pandai² anak² kawan aku. Ada yang baru balik oversea after 4 years, balik sini anak darjah 1, BM berterabur, gi hantar tuition, akhir tahun dapat pencapaian terbaik untuk kertas BM. I just wonder actually what happen to other kids yang memang bertutur BM di rumah & luar rumah? Do kids nowadays even Standard 1 kids, actually need tuition to excel?

Err sambung nanti lah yek.

Parenthood Talk

Yesterday after work & picking up Honey at the nursery, I went to Honey's favorite teacher's house which I called Kak Sal for the 1st time. Actually she had been absent for 2 days, Tuesday & Wednesday. Other teachers at the nursery told me that she wasn't well. So I decided to visit her. Actually I've been wanted to go to Kak Sal's house for quite sometimes now, since she has always offered taking care of Honey not only at the nursery, but I don't have proper reason to do so. So when she didn't show up at the nursery on Wednesday, I guessed I should visit her then.

She's Honey's favorite teacher because Honey only wants to be attended by her. Last 2 days, when I sent Honey to the nursery, Honey would cry because I passed her to other teachers, not Kak Sal since Kak Sal wasn't there. Somehow despite being sent to the nursery almost everyday, Honey's very selective. She refuses to be with just anybody. She meets the other teachers almost everyday too, just like she meets Kak Sal but somehow she only wants to be with Kak Sal.

So the statement that every baby is unique is very true. For me, it's very surprising to see how Honey develops her own character despite the environment where she has grown up. Before I thought we parents were 100% responsible to determine our children characters by providing the right environment & example. Now I know that even 1 year old kid is smart enough to has her own preference regardless her small world that is provided by her parents.

Yesterday at Kak Sal's home we did discuss about this, about how babies can have their own preference & character. The owner of the nursery, Husna, is quite strict & try to discipline the kids while on the other hand Kak Sal prefer to be more flexible towards kids. As for me, I'm glad that Honey is trained to adapt to both situation. Glad that there's someone like Kak Sal with her full of sifat keibuan & Husna with her role as the pengetua taska.

Ok lah I have more to say actually on this matter... so will continue later if the time & mood permit, insyaAllah of course.

Oh Nasi Goreng

Nasi goreng ni aku namakan nasi goreng campak...


Sebabnya campak je bahan² dalam kuali, jadi lah nasi goreng ni. Very easy. Bahan² pun guna leftover yang hari Ahad punya je. Tengok ada nasi sejuk & sambal ayam dalam peti ais, Honey pun dah tido, so sempat lah masak nasi goreng ni before JD balik keje.

Tumis bawang putih & bawang merah, campak cili api, campak garam. Separuh orang ramas dulu nasi dengan garam, tapi aku malas. Pastu campak ayam yang dah dipotong kecil, kemudian campakkan nasi. Gunakan sudip untuk hancurkan nasi yang berkepal. Pecahkan telur dalam nasi tadi, gorenglah sampai telur betul² masak. Siap. Oh takde sayur sebab malas nak potong. Huhuu. Sebenarnya ada je lobak yang dah distim & blend kasar dalam peti ais, Honey punya. Lupa. Kalau teringat, boleh lah campak sekali masuk dalam nasi goreng ni.

Tu pun, masa masak nasi goreng ni terganggu gak sebab Honey tido tak lena. Ada lah dalam 2 kali, tengah² masak, matikan api gi tengok Honey kat hall sebab dengar dia merengek. Kalau biarkan api takut ralit tengok Honey, hangus plak kan.

Walaupun simple, rasanya sedap tau. Hehee puji masakan sendiri. At least menepati lah selera aku. Ni tengok gambar pun, perut jadi lapar.
