USRAH =)

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim,

As promised to farah and fifi, I will share a little bit about this new USRAH that I just started a few weeks ago.

A sudden idea of wanting to join an usrah just came into my mind one day. But,due to some constraints,it would not be achievable so I took an alternative. I tweeted the idea and CCed two of my tumblr friends whom I've grown fond of and they responded positively,alhamdulillah. They were excited as much as I was :D. Then, I also invited AK and she also agreed to the idea. So, there were 4 of us. Later on, I decided to add some more members so I proposed the idea to two more fellow tumblrians and they also agreed so we set up a date to "meet" virtually =). The meeting was supposed to be on Saturday Night,after isya' prayer. I added them in my YM because,a noob I am, didn't know that we can conference via SKYPE 0_o

skipping some funny parts, our meeting started successfully on the first usrah. We didn't jump into a topic. It was only a taaruf session, getting to know better each members. There were Kak H,Kak S,dik N,dik M, AK and myself. Then, we discussed a little bit of what an usrah is and what topic should we be discussing in the next session.  Worrying that we might be misleading ourselves, I proposed to them the magazine Solusi for them to read and we could just pick a topic to discuss and they agreed. So, I sent them a soft copy.

The first topic we discussed last Sunday was about PATIENCE. Everyone [who were present] participated and shared their thoughts and SubhanAllah,amazing words! By knowing a few, we shared, making a few doubled up to more understanding and more reminders. Alhamdulillah.

As far as up to now, I do not regret this usrah. To be frank, I left usrah for quite a long time albeit the fact that I did study in an Islamic based University  [personal reasons] so this is a good way to join an usrah,at our own comfort. No force, no hard feelings,inshaAllah =). Just a little attempt to improve ourselves, simple yet hopefully constant inshaAllah =)

Oh yah,BTW, me and my fellow usrah mates [except AK], we have never met face2face. We were tumblrian friends for quite some time and we are not strangers anymore there so I proposed to them. Not only we gained knowledge, we also gained new friends, a nice ukhwah =)

That's about it I guess. Everyone can do this actually! Rather than chatting online pointlessly, better converse something beneficial.Jokes between the line is a NO PROBLEM at all  as long as we stick to the right purpose of the conversation =)

Allahu Musta'an. May our little effort be blessed by Him,ameen =)

Off updating and Walimah[s]

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim,

Pheww it's been a while. Many have happened along the M.I.A duration. Maybe just a quckie entry, let's see:

- The shocking news about the landslide incident. Al-Fatihah. May all of you whom passed away be placed among the blessed ones,ameen

********************************************************************************

-The Reunion that I could not join. Konvoi Gen6 SMIH to the Walimah reception of my table-mate,Maimunah and her husband and another classmate,Zikri dan his wife. Barakallahu lakuma wa baraka alaikuma wa jama'a bainakuma fi khair to both brides and grooms =)

********************************************************************************

-The very spiritual feeding Walimah reception that I just happened to attend earlier tonight. It was held at the Main Hall C.A.C of my beloved IIUM =). A very unique wedding,maybe to some people because, instead of playing musical instruments, or caklempong, or nasheed,they played quranic verses, hadeeth and displayed it on the big screen so maybe someone might be rajin enough to jot it down? :D [no,not me though].

I really loved the wedding just now...eventhough the bride comes from a  renowned background, and eventhough one may assume at first sight "wah kelassnya wedding ni", they actually made it simple. They have the extra cost to feed people with good service and good food, so what's the problem? And to make me more amused, the guests invited were of a variety groups of people. Tahfiz students, orphans were invited. Even the brides's friends were seated at the first two front tables! [Mine was table no.1!! betul2 depan meja pengantin di atas stage tu! :D]

The tentative was also simple and punctual. They really followed the time allocation, me likey! xde lambat2 ni! The du'a recitation from the bride's brother was nice, the speech given by the bride's father was sweet T_T, the quranic live recitation from this one tahfiz student was an Ear-Candy and the recitations played during our eatery,mashAllah just pleasant!

I also met my sweet INTIS friends [and all of them except two were married with one child or expecting another child TQ ]

Barakallahu lakuma wa baraka alaikuma wa jama'a bainakuma fi khair to Kak Wani & Zauj =)

A walimah well done =)


p/s: maaf ler kalau banyak grammatical error,word order rule error and error2 yg lain...Ai rasa kekoklah menulis di belogs ni yu...hohohoho

On being random

Assalamualaikum and Hi all!

How are you?!  [tho I'm pretty much sure no one reads this pathetic blog anymore,LOL]

Well I'm Alhamdulillah fine!

All hyped up and randomly updating S2S for no specific reason at all.

Yesterday was Tuesday [and no I'm not tuning to RB's song] and it was a public holiday which I had but seemed not. Why was that so? Because I received a task that needed submission today and me being me I zon't like pending task so I chained my brains to the screen and my fingers were dancing on the keyboard to finish it! [albeit the fact I said I wanted to rest yesterday..]. Did go out for Sushi but that was just it...*sigh for pathetic lonesome on a holiday*

*********************************************************************************

On another random note I  would just like to share my thoughts on my favourite accents/languages...Shall we stroll now?

British accent  -without doubt 100% in love with it
Hindi/urdu - what's not to like about it?
Arabic - language of the Quran, melodious soothing pills
Spanish - La Usurpadora,Maghia Mercedes old folks tale..bahaha [speedy language]
filipino - especially when they speak English side by side
french - oui?
Korean - korean drama influence which I no longer watch
German - currently learning a bit
Japanese - currently learning a bit
Russian- currently learning a bit [ but they use Cyrillic alphabets so it's a wee bit hard for me,I'm only learning the basic phrases,as for now]
Canadian
kedahan
Kelantanese
Perak
Sarawakian


Mainly that's about some of it...Maybe I do have the linguistic love inside me after all,DUH for sure I have!

************************************************************************************


I'm very much excited with the Virtual Usrah that I am having with some beautiful ladies [tumblr friends]. The idea just popped into my head, suggested it, got some takers and we will have our first official virtual meeting this Saturday inshaAllah....Who knows, maybe I'll start loving back the actual usrah one day? Bi'iznillah~~~


************************************************************************************

The crazy psychotic ACID SPLASHER has yet to be found though...


** Can't wait for AK's RETURN!!! :D
