A Date With Ustaz Zamri~

Date: 10 August 2011


"Apa dia adik-adik?" "ZAKAT!!" Such an adorable show. When I heard that Ustaz Zamri was coming to Kerteh for Forum Ramadhan, I was excited! He is practically a celebrity!

The panel of ustazs.

The forum was really good. The panels discussed on the advantages of Ramadhan and fasting in terms of spiritual and medical benefits. Half way through the forum, I had to attend a meeting, crappy! So below were a few points that I was able to capture.

 
 
Before the meeting, I won myself a book for answering correctly a quiz question... Yeah!

Signed autograph from Ustaz Zamri... another Yeahh!!

How some Muslims nowadays percieve the fasting month:

1) A month of hunger and thirst.
They will only concentrate on eating as much as possible during sahur, and neglect ibadah.

2) A transition month to Eid Fitr
They will buy new clothes, curtains, sell Raya cookies and biscuits as a preparation for Eid celebration.

3) A month to gain economically
They pre-booked Bazar Ramadhan site for business, even before Ramadhan.

Spiritual Advantages of Ramadhan

1) 70x pahala for each good deed.
2) Lailatul Qadar - a night equals to a thousand months. Allah hides this night on the last week of Ramadhan for the sincere Muslims to find.

1/3 of Ramadhan: A week for rahmat. Nearly all Muslims go to mosque for Tarawikh.
2/3 of Ramadhan: A week of forgiveness. Allah filters His servants, lesser Muslims go to Tarawikh to obtain His forgiveness.
3/3 of Ramadhan: A week to be saved from hell. Allah further filters His servants. Only the chosen one will have the sincerity to recieve this blessing.

3) The fasting breath of a Muslim smells of kasturi in the sight of Allah.
4) Allah opens widely the doors of heavens and closess all doors of hells.

Health benefits of fasting:

Healthy eating shall be as optimum as possible, not minimised. Meals eaten will only by fully digested after 5 hours. During other months, we usually eat up to 6 meals per day - breakfast, morning break, lunch, tea break, dinner and supper. The stomach never stops diesting due to overlap of meals. The only time the stomach rests is during our sleep, for about 3 hours. During Ramadhan, our stomach will take the opportunity for cleansing of ammonia (ammonia intoxication), cholestrole, and heal any wound in the stomach.

Rasulullah SAW's diet:
Eat before hungry, stop before full.

Rasulullah SAW break fast routine:

1) Once azan Maghrib, eat 3 dates and drink plain water
2) Perform Maghrib prayer
3) Read 1 juzuk of Quran
4) Go to mosque to perform Isyak and Tarawikh prayers
5) Return home for dinner.

Mantopp!

Hello Second Baby!

Kimi will be 3 soon and guess what, he is also a newly-appointed big brother! This time around, Prince Court is not in the picture - being full-time students, we can only afford to attend Toowoomba Base Hospital, a government hospital so this will be a whole new experience for me, not to mention being in a whole different country! A little park in front of the hospital: I had my monthly checkup at USQ clinic with Dr. Kay Brumpton, who is amazing by the way. And towards my second trimester, I had monthly visits to the hospital to see the midwives. This is the waiting area at the Antenatal Clinic: And that's Kimi climbing over the door of the play gym. Adventurous...! Being Asian, and smallish (even for an asian), my baby was measuring a bit small than the average Aussie. The doctor was a bit concerned and had me do 3 ultrasounds. Back in Malaysia, ultrasounds were performed during every single monthly check-up, but here, they feel that 1 is good enough, unless

Book: Sushi for Beginners

Date: 24 December 2010 Author: Marian Keyes She is definitely one of my favourite authors ever. The first book from her that I read was Under the Duvet, and the second was The Other Side of The Story - both I borrowed from UTM's library. She writes about characters with real life issues and manage to make the situation light although it's actually a dark topic. At the end of the day, readers will learn about complicated issues without feeling depressed. She delivers the message and adds humor to it - just brilliant! Plus, I learned a few Irish words! Sushi for Beginners is about the lives of 3 different ladies, all facing depressions. Different characters have a different coping mechanism. Synopsis: Lisa, a beautiful, career oriented lady is the b*tch boss from hell. She'll do whatever it takes to be the best at what she does, even if it means having no friends and family. The thing that drives her over the wall was when she actually sacrificed her marriage to

Melbourne, Australia

Melbourne Weekend Getaway! Date: 13 May 2011 It is not often you hear someone say, "I'm going to Australia just for the weekend". However, it actually happened to me, not intentionally, but accidentally... I booked my flight ticket (in August 2010 for the lowest fare possible!!) without double checking and ended up with only 2 full days to spend in Melbourne. To make the best of it, I pre-booked full day tours for both days... which left out any opportunity for Melbourne city sight-seeing - how sad! From LCCT, KLIA to Melbourne Airport, it took about 8 hours flight - which I can't sleep for most part of it!! - and the time difference is plus 2 hours from Malaysia. Date: 14 May 2011 Upon arrival...   Hi Mr Sean/Chin! We were greated by Ms Candy who showed us to our maxi taxi. The driver was Mr Sean/Chin (didn't quite get his name) who was from Cancun, China. He was friendly and energetic. He dropped us of at Punthill - The Stanton at St Kild
