Twins of Faith 2014 - World of the Unseen

Assalamualaikum...

Hai Incik Bloggie!

I've attended Twins of Faith 2014 last weekend as one of the event volunteers. The event was held at PICC Putrajaya. Agak ralat sebab just dapat datang sehari je pada hari ahad. Sebab sabtu I've to attend MBA Industrial Talk. Tapi Alhamdulillah...everything happened with reasons. Dapat 2 jenis ilmu, ilmu duniawi & juga ilmu akhirat.  

I couldn't really describe the feeling when I was there. Attended the event as a volunteer, of course the experiences quite different compared as a participant.  I was assigned under auditorium team. Bertugas dekat main hall where all the Syeikh delivered their talks, tapi tak dapat nak fokus dengar talk. Papepun pengalaman pada satu hari tu memang awesome. Dapat new friends, greet the participants, smile to strangers; senyum sepanjang hari sampai mulut cramp, pipi pun makin naik dan bertambah tembab 'sarkastik!'. Bonus makanan yang disediakan pun sedap. Kenyang perut suka hati. Alhamdulillah... memang happy sangat even kepenatan jugakla kena berdiri sepanjang hari. Lagi kasihan dekat volunteers lain yang memang attended the event on both days. Sampai ada yang sakit-sakit pinggang lagi.

On that day, aku bertugas dekat pintu masuk, I've to check the participants' wristband before they enter the auditorium. When I saw families with little kids came to the event, it made me wonder, I must bring my future husband and future kids too. InshaAllah. It’s good to expose the young ones in this kind family event. Terberangan and can't stop smiling... :) Oops! *back to reality pulish!!!*

Participants focus on the talk.

Alang-alang hall kosong participants semua keluar for Zohor break.

Bila event almost nak habis baru dapat masuk duduk dekat kerusi nak merasa jadi participants.

Bila event dah habis, aku duduk dekat kerusi paling atas sekali, sambil memerhati participants keluar dari hall. Suddenly ada seorang auntie ni tegur dengan senyum lebarnya...

"Thank you dik. Good job. Now go home and rest!"she smiled brightly~~~

Rasa berbunga-bunga hati lebih dari bunga di taman larangan gittew.  I can't explain the feeling... kegembiraan yang tak terkata. 

Alhamdulillah. Positive feedback from the participants. Jzkk Mercy Mission for this awesome opportunity.

The best part was after the event ended. At that time, all the participants have left the hall. Yang tinggal just few speakers and volunteers dalam hall. Suddenly one sheikh ni naik atas stage & announce that one of the participants wants to revert to Islam. ALHAMDULILLAH... He 'lafaz' the syahadah clearly. That was the first time I saw a non-Muslim revert to Islam. ALLAHU AKBAR! ALLAHU AKBAR! Dia nampak seperti kain putih yang sangat suci. Perasaan dapat saudara baru tu memang tak boleh explain. Somehow I got teary-eyed and I'm not alone. I can say everyone there got teary-eyed. The brothers gave him group hug.  

Overall the experience priceless mannn... priceless! There’s one saying goes like this, “When you want to do good, good people will come near you and vice versa.” ^_^

Audi Team - Sisters. We worked together for the sake of Allah.
Be with lovely and positive peoples is a blessing. Alhamdulillah.

Worked under audi team, aku still ada chance nak dengar beautiful talks from the awesome international speakers. Ada few points penting yang sempat tangkap and tersentap, makan dalam time dengar talk tu. Ya Allah...rasa rendahnya diri, sikitnya ilmu, kurangnya amal.

Dengan jasa baik beberapa orang participants yang share notes diorang time event tu dekat diorang punya social media and ada notes yang my volunteer sister share dekat our whatsapp group, I compile it here. Hope it'll be benefited for all.

By sis Aisyah Shakirah

Shaykh Tawfique Chowdury stated that, the signs of righteous people are of those who sees hardships, easy- and this can be done by being grateful. By feeling enough with what you have, and being 100% dependant on God. 
If u notice, people who are religiously ignorant (no matter what religion) have a higher tendency to be angered, to feel depressed, sad, irritated, agitated and stressed out. In contrast, those who are firm to their beliefs usually are more at peace.

True.

When you have faith, InshaAllah everything will be easier for you. Even if it is hard, God will grant you stronger shoulders to go through these obstacles. So have faith, work hard to become a better person each day. God bless.

THE HIDDEN ENEMY

*Shaytan starts young and keeps attacking even at #death.
- A baby cries upon birth because Shaytan jabs it.
- Shaytan appears to you at death as a close or loved one to test and trick you.

*Shaytan's oath "By #Allah, I will never stop tormenting the children of Adam AS as long as their souls are writhing in their bodies"

*Shaytan does not stop, does not rest, and all the #Jinn reports to him. The Jinn that misguided a Muslim the most gets rewarded: #zina, #divorce, consumption of "wine or #drugs, etc.

*Pray especially at Fajr and Ishak when the rewards are heavy. When you miss Fajr. The majority's interpretation of they had it says that Shaytan urinated in your ear (literal).

*Zina begins with a look. The look leads to some words to more words to time spent to more time spent to misguided feelings leading to breaking a covenant with Allah SWT in Zina. Do not follow the footsteps of Shaytan. He is very good at misguiding. He is very good at changing words and situations to make what is good unattractive and what is bad very attractive.

*Shaytan will first attack your Tawheed because that is the only thing that can save you from getting Hellfire. He wants more companions in the Fire.

*The pious Muslim family is the first brick in Society. Shaytan strikes there. He crowns the Jinn who are able to separate a man and his wife.

*If you are possessed by a Jinn, Allah SWT loves you. He has afflicted you with a hardship that no one can help you with except Allah SWT. He wants you to turn back to Him.

*The solution is turning to Allah SWT. Only He can protect you from Shaytan and his army. If you want to beat Shaytan:
(1) Check your intentions
(2) Fortress of the Muslim
(3) Knowledge of Islam

10 THINGS THAT BRING THE LOVE OF ALLAH

Ibn Qayyim (May Allah have mercy on him) said that there are ten things that bring about the love of Allah.

1) Recitation of the Qur'an with reflection and with an understanding of its meanings.

2) Seeking closeness to Allah by performing voluntary deeds after having performed obligatory ones, for that leads one to the highest levels of love.

3) Remembering Allah during every situation – with one’s time, heart and deeds, one’s share of that love is to the degree of one’s share in that remembrance.

4) Preferring what He loves to what you love when your desires are strong.

5) Allowing your heart to reflect on His Names and Attributes.

6) Reflecting on His many favors and blessings, both the apparent ones and hidden ones, for that leads to His love.

7) Having your heart softened as it is worshipping Allah.

8) Being alone with Him in worship when He descends during the last third of the night. And this means to invoke Him, to recite His Speech, to stand with all sincerity and with good manners and with good submission, and then to end that with repentance and with seeking His forgiveness.

9) Sitting with those who are truthful in their love of Allah.

10) Staying away from all that creates barriers between the heart and Allah.

Last but not least, as I can clearly remember one of the speakers remind us...

'With the firm intention, turn the knowledge into action...'

My mind is still flooded with the memories and talks from the speakers. Hope it'll remain in my heart and I'm able to practice all the knowledge gained through this 'Majlis Ilmu'. I'm so blessed, blessed with what Allah has given to me. 

Again. Jazakallahu khairan kathira Mercy Mission for organizing this event.

 InshaAllah jumpa lagi in the next TOF dan semoga ada kesempatan lagi nak hadiri majlis ilmu lain.

That's all from me. Mohon maaf kalau ter 'over-excited'. Aku memang excited lebih bila first time neh. Salam sayang! Jangan marah, kalau marah kena jual...kalau tak marah teruskan berkasih sayang! 

Till we meet again Incik Bloggie.

Hanging Terrarium

Assalamualaikum...

Hai Incik Bloggie!

I guess rakyat sarwajagat mesti dah tahu apa itu Terrarium kan kan kan....

First time I heard about this thing was about past few years ago from my younger brother; around 3 - 4 years approximately. *I can't remember lol! short term memory loss. Aigo!*. At that time my brother was in his secondary school. He joined terrarium competition that was held in conjunction with pesta bunga or known as FLORIA~~~

Frist time dengar, my reaction was like *makhluk apakah itu???*. With a brief explanation from my brother then I got it, what's terrarium exactly.

Even ramai dah tahu, aku nak share jugak lah ek.

A terrarium is an area within a glass container usually enclosed to keep an ecosystem in a small scale. No live animals or insect are kept in the jar, it's purely a miniature garden. - Incik Wikipedia

Then lately rasa maca terjatuh cinta pulak dah dengan hanging terrarium.

Boleh gantung dalam toilet.

Dekat kepala katil pun boleh! Look nice!
[Credit]

Boleh buat hiasan dekat meja makan juga~~~lalala~~~

I'm thinking of decorate my room with hanging terrarium yang comel2 ni. Sebab katanya senang nak menjaga terrarium ni. Since I love green so much kan! So, memang sesuai la nak menambahkan kehijauan dekat dalam bilik tu.

I found satu kedai yang jual hanging terrarium ni, November Culture dekat Subang. I'll pay a visit to this place one fine day.

Hope the price is reasonable, or else I'm thinking of bully-ing my younger brother *tolong buatkan along terrarium yang simple & cantik!*. 

That all from me, have a nice Sunday everyone! *open house here & there is it?* Selamat ziarah menziarah. Me & my family will pay a visit to my cousin house this afternoon. Excited nak melawat baby burhanuddin yg cute!

Till we meet again Incik Bloggie!

Watak Baru

Assalamualaikum...

Hi Incik Bloggie!

Hari ni nak introduce watak baru dalam kehidupanku. Bukan seorang, bukan dua orang tapi 8 ekor! Mihmihmih...watak-watak baru yang berbulu dan berekor. *sila bersedia dengan lambakan gambar, bukan senang nak ambil gambar diorang ni sekor-sekor...meow...meow...*

Dah almost 2 months we ollsss menjaga they olllsss ni!

Calon-calonnya...taraaaaa~~~~

BOBOY

Name : Boboy
Age : 4 months (as per 20 June 2014)
Gender : Male
Breed : Mix Persian
Origin : Malaysia
Tarikh Ambil : 22 April 2014

Boboy ni diberi oleh colleague aku Kak Ana. Masa ambil sebulan lebih yang lepas (22 April 2014), dia baru 2 bulan lebih. Kak Ana used to called him as Tiger. Tapi mak kata dia anak kucing, tak mau lah panggil 'tiger'. So mak gave him new name 'BOBOY'. Kekadang kalau aku malas, just panggil Boy je. Kalau rajin aku panggil dia Boboboy! Terbaikkkkk!

Masa mula-mula ambil dulu, Boboy ni pemalu & suka sangat menyorok dekat belakang langsir. Gambar di atas tu, baru je tarik dia keluar dari belakang langsir. Sekarang Boboy ni suka kacau adik-beradik dia sekor lagi Lucy. Kak Ana bagi we ollss dua ekor. Lemme story pasal Lucy nanti ye.

Dia la budak paling aktif & suka mengacau yang lain2. Kalau bab nak melompat ke sana kemari, memang serah dekat Boboy lah. Dah serupa Tarzan da aku tengok! Ahaks!

Boboy da makin besar dan perut dia la paling boyot antara semua kucing. So dapat nick name baru Boboyot~~~ Berat dah cecah 2kg lebih.

LUCY

Name : Lucy
Age : 4 months (as per 20 June 2014)
Gender : Female
Breed : Mix Persian
Origin : Malaysia
Tarikh Ambil : 22 April 2014

Lucy ni adik-beradik dengan si Boboy. Lucy ni baik sikit. Tak adalah buat perangai pelik-pelik & tak banyak ragam. Good girl. Disebabkan selalu kena kacau dengan Boboy, pembesaran Lucy agak slow sikit. Yelah, aktif sangat. Dua beradik ni memang tak leh terpisah. BTW, Lucy ni memang nama yang Kak Ana bagi. Dah sesuai dengan dia, so we ollss terus jelah panggil dia Lucy.

Gambar-gambar si Lucy yang polite. Baik je ha sekor ni.

Boboy dan Lucy berpisah tiada.

Kesian Lucy kena buli dengan Boboy. Mak kata macam we ollsss adik-beradik masa kecil-kecil dulu la.

KIKI

Name : Kiki
Age : 5 months (as per 20 June 2014)
Gender : Male
Breed : Persian Semi Flat Face
Origin : Malaysia
Tarikh Beli : 22 April 2014

Kiki ni kucing yang first mak beli. Parents aku jumpa dia masa dekat kedai Albi Petzone. Kekonon nak beli barang-barang nak sambut kedatangan Lucy & Boboy. Last2 tersangkut pulak dekat kecomelan dan mata bulat Kiki tu. Mula-mula we ollss sangkakan Kiki ni betina. Yelah owner kedai kata dia ni betina. Dah dekat 3 minggu, lepas ambil Ciko baru tahu dia ni jantan *almaklumlah baru nak jaga kucing kan.*. Suka pulak gaduh dengan Ciko, tak serupa betina. Siapa pula Ciko, tungguuuuu~~~. Then nak confirmkan jantina dia, we ollsss bawa pergi jumpa doktor. Yes, Kiki ni jantan. Itulah nama pun Kiki macam nama kucing betina kan, mak yang bagi. Gasaklah...dia pun dah biasa we ollsss panggil Kiki. Tamau tukar nama lagi dah! Tapi kekadang aku panggil dia 'Key'. Malas nak sebut pepanjang!

Kiki ni muka macam someone. Guess who???

Haaaa...sama tak...sama tak... Sekali dia buat mata bulat tu...omo...omo...melting terus~~~

Yang special nye lagi dengan Kiki. Dia ni pandai & dengar kata. Once we called him, 'Kiki...meh sini sayang kak long...' *ecewah bahasakan diri 'kak long' dengan kucing2 ni* terus dia lari datang dekat aku & lagakan hidung dia dekat hidungku. Then kalau nak ajak pergi memana pun tak yah angkat just panggil je, nanti dia ikut. Tu pun ikut mood dia la, kekadang gedik tak dengar kata. Ni my favourite boyfriend! Paling manja dengan aku dan paling suka gigit tangan & jari orang. Kononnya nak bermanja lah tu. Lagi satu dia excited gigit ekor sendiri.

Laptop adalah mainan favourite dia. Orang menaip dia pun sibuk nak naik atas laptop taip sekali.

Memang selalu teman aku bila nak update blog ni. Sebab tulah jadi favourite boypren. Lepas dah tau dia jantan terus tukar dari kucing favourite jadi favourite boypren.

Kak long...Kiki nak tidur...please jangan kacau!

Sleeping Beauty
Tak kisahlah, snap lah gambar...Kiki nak tidur jugak

Kiki ni sangat suka dengan gadget kan, so memang susah nak snap gambar dia. Sebab dia suka datang cakar phone aku.
-.-'''''''
Ni memang untung badanlah dapat snap gambar posing macam ni!

ACIM

Name : Acim
Age : 6 months (as per 20 June 2014)
Gender : Male
Breed : Persian Flat Face
Origin : Malaysia
Tarikh Beli : 22 April 2014

Watak seterusnya, Acim! Acim ni adik aku jumpa tuan dia nak jual dekat Mudah.my. Tuan acim yang dulu ni bela banyak sangat kucing Persian flat face. Kebetulan salah sekor tu sakit hati & nak kena surgery. Kucing punya sakit pun lebih kurang macam orang gak ye. Since dia memerlukan duit nak cover cost surgery kucing sekor tu dia jual la Acim ni.

Nama asal Acim adalah Acem. Tapi sebab aku rasa macam susah nak sebut, then request why not if we call him Acim. Macam sedap sikit. The reason why tuan dia dulu bagi nama Acem sebab muka dia yang masam tu. 

Aku selalu panggil Acim ni kucing yang tak ada perasaan.

Muka masam 24 jam. Tak ada perasaan.

Cuba cari mana Acim. Pandai menyorok eh!

Satu lagi panggilan Acim yang aku bagi dia "Raja Tidur".
Dia paling kuat tidur, dan boleh tidur dalam apa jua keadaan. Kalau dia dah tidur nyenyak, kacau jelah macam mana sekalipun dia tak heran. Acim nak tidur!

Selain itu Acim ni pembersih. Dialah paling suka cuci bulu dia sendiri. Gigih sepagi mencuci bulu sampai bersih.

CHIBI

Name : Chibi
Age : 7 months (as per 20 June 2014)
DOB : 13 Oktober 2013
Gender : Female
Breed : Persian Flat Face
Origin : Malaysia

Chibi ni paling tak sangka. A few days lepas beli Kiki & Acim, balik-balik rumah dari kerja, masuk je bilik nampak sekor makhluk ni atas katil. Macam tak familiar je. Nah, rupa-rupanya mak beli sekor lagi kucing baru. 

Nama Chibi diberi oleh Incik adik. Tak tahulah kenapa dia pilih Chibi. Tapi aku suka panggil dia Chibi Maruko Chan! Kalau bab nak 'tukar-tukar' nama memang serah kat aku hehehe...

Ni Chibi. Si hidung kemek!

Ni Chibi Maruko Chan. Sama-sama comel la~~~

Antara semua-semua bulu Chibi paling cantik & panjang!

Oleh sebab itu dia menjadi mangsa abah untuk try 'Pet shaver' yang kitorang baru beli haritu.
Sekarang Chibi dah togel. Doktor kata lebih kurang 3 bulan baru bulu dia panjang & cantik macam dulu.
Sobsobsob...sabar jelah Chibi ye.

Chibi paling suka kena peluk macam ni, asal peluk je tidur. -.-"
Macam-macam lah korang ni!

Satu lagi problemo si Chibi ni dia suka sangat gigit besi sangkar. Aigo!!!! Habis senget gigit dia. Tak tahu dah nak ajar cemana lagi. Chibi ni kuat merajuk & takut dengan rotan. Kalau merajuk nanti lari duduk dalam bekas berak. Nak pujuk dia senang je...ambik peluk-peluk dia OK lah balik!

CIKO

Name : (Jessico) Ciko
Age : 5 months (as per 20 June 2014)
DOB : 10 January 2013
Gender : Male
Breed : Scottish Fold
Origin : Taiwan
Tarikh Beli : 1 May 2014

Ciko ni la pencetus macam mana we ollsss boleh tahu Kiki tu jantan. Sebab diorang dua ekor ni suka sangat gaduh, sampai sekarang ni pun sama je kalau dua ekor ni bertemu dalam satu sangkar. 

Nama asal Ciko sebenarnya Kiko, kekonon nak couple dengan Kiki la. Kan sweet couple tu Kiko & Kiki. Eh tapi sepatutnya Kiki Lala! Nama Kiko berubah kepada Ciko lepas we ollsss beli Cika. Haaaa...sapa pulak Cika tu...tunggu~~~ Lepas tu aku dapat idea nak bagi nama penuh kat dia 'Jessico'. Well~~~ I am master in changing their name. Now panggil je Ciko.

Ciko ni berasal dari Taiwan. We ollss beli dekat Dream Pet Shop. Memang semua kucing yang dijual di import dari Taiwan. 

Bergambar dengan owner Dream Pet Shop. May yg muda lagi dah ada business kucing. Salute!

Tapi we ollsss suka jugak panggil dia ni 'anak panda'. Sebab rasa muka dia macam panda... hahaha...kucing bermuka panda!

Ciko si telinga kemek!

Suka sangat gaduh dengan Kiki & Acim. Kurung dia sekor2 dalam satu sakar.
Even baru 5 bulan, Ciko dah mula menunjukkan tanda2 meroyan nak pasangan. -.-''
Cepatnya kau matang beb!

Pose favourite Ciko!
Nampak hidung tu calar sebab gaduh dengan Kiki.

CIKA

Name : (Jessica) Cika
Age : 5 months (as per 20 June 2014)
DOB : 18 January 2013
Gender : Female
Breed : Scottish Fold
Origin : Taiwan

Cika ni pun sama jugak, we ollss beli dekat Dream Pet Shop! Lahir 8 hari selepas Ciko dilahirkan. Nama Cika di inspirasikan daripada Jessica Girl Generation! Sebab angah kata cika ni sexy lady. Disebabkan 'Jessica' cam panjang sangat so bagi nick name Cika.

Disebabkan Cika tengah selsema, so kena duduk dalam sangkar sorang2 eh salah sekor2.
Dikuarantin bagi mengelakkan jangkitan.

Cika the sexy girl.

Kekonon 'sexy girl' jual mahal nak ambik gambar. So gambar dia semua dari dalam sangkar.

Cika ni paling bising dan kuat menjerit!
Mulut luas macam Jacqueline Victor...no wonderlaaa~~~

YUKI

Name : Yuki (Yuki Shiro)
Age : 3 months (as per 20 June 2014)
DOB : 3 March 2013
Gender : Female
Breed : Persian Semi Flat Face
Origin : Malaysia
Tarikh Beli : 16 May 2014

Yuki adalah adik paling bongsu kepada diorang semua ni. Di beli dari seorang kakak yang buka kedai dekat Bukit Jelutong. At first, tak plan pun nak tambah lagi seekor ni. Tetiba adik jumpa dekat Mudah.my. Nampak dia sangat cute dan suci. Sebab colour putih, the whole body. Disebabkan satu family dah jatuh cinta dengan dia. Terus decide nak beli on the same day lepas tengok iklan tu.

Akak yang jual Yuki ni pun ada kisah yang menarik dengan kucing. Dia & husband bela kucing selama 5 tahun sebelum menanti kelahiran cahaya permata yang sulung. Lepas 5 years diorang dapat anak, then decide nak buka pet shop. Al-kisah dia bertemu jodoh dengan husband dia pun dekat pameran kucing. Cat connecting people...Ahaks! Banyak kisah hidup dia relate dengan kucing.

Nama asal Yuki adalah snow white. Aku lah yang pilih nama tu. Sebab dia putih suci kekonon macam snow white. Tapi abah pulak kata susah nya nak panggil. Then Angah pun google translate snow white in Japanese. Snow in japanese is 'Yuki' while 'White' is pronounce as 'Shiro'. So dapatlah nama baru Yuki Shiro! Everyone approved! Tapi nak panggil Shiro mak kata macam nama group pelawak tu je. So we decided to call her Yuki! 

Namun begitu umur Yuki tak panjang, we ollsss sempat bela dia for just 2 weeks. Aku ada tulis kisah kematian Yuki dalam post sebelum ni. Sobsobsob...rindu pulak dekat dia.

Tribute to Yuki, nak letak gambar dia bebanyak sikit!

Masa memula ambil Yuki dulu. Sehari sebelum birthday ku!

Her favourite pose! Dia ni unik mata berbeza warna. Sebelah biru sebelah oren!

Suka main dalam bakul!

Mainan favourite, selipar mak!

Bila tidur macam sleeping beauty.
Masa ni aku dodoi dia sampai tidur. Fefeeling keibuan gittewww~~~

Yuki & her friends. Aka teddy bear ku!

Rindunya dekat budak ni!!!

*****

So itulah dia 8 watak baru yang menyerikan hari-hariku! Before pergi kerja main dengan diorang, balik kerja main dengan diorang, before tidur main dengan diorang, the next day pun repeat benda yang sama. So, terus hari-hari ku ceria kembali dengan kehadiran diorang ni! Ewwww~~~.

Mainan diorang!

Memang geli hati ye tengok keletah diorang! Lagi geli hati tengok keletah aku berborak & menyanyi untuk diorang. Erk!

Truth to be told...dulu aku ni penakut nak pegang kucing. Aku tak takut dengan diorang, cumanya aku takut nak pegang badan diorang yang lembik tu~~~. Tapi disebabkan diorang ni comel sangat tahap super saiyan kesepuluh. Terus boleh peluk,cium segala haha...

Semoga semua sihat-sihat, semakin gemuk dan membesar dengan baik! Banyak lagi yang we ollss satu family nak belajar pasal feel & sakit diorang ni.

Itu je cerita saya pada petang ni. Semoga mata tak juling tengok gambar yang banyak gilos ni. Ye, boleh dikatakan gallery handphone ku sekarang ni dah dikuasai oleh gambar-gambar bebudak ni. Tahniah ye kerana telah berjaya mencuri hati kak long ni!!! 

Bila nak cakap dengan diorang automatik akan bahasakan diri 'Kak Long~~~Come to kak long sayang~~~*

Ok nak pergi main dengan diorang dulu~~~

Till we meet again Incik Bloggie!
