<div class="MsoNormal">:P</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">No peace on you dear shaytan. But welcome, I know you’ve been tied up for quite a long time, and I hope you had a ‘blast’ back there. No, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">real blast</span>, not that happy-birthday-havva-blast type of blast.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">I just wanted to say that I am no longer the girl you knew, I’m welcoming you as a stronger person. You really should be nervous right now. I’ve prayed to Allah to make me strong to resist all your stupid calls and I am confident that He heard my du’a against you. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">So what were you doing back there while I was enjoying my time without you? I did a lot, not so much but I’m quite happy with myself though. I made a lot of dua’s for you, so sweet eh? Are you in tears?</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Anyways I’m giving you a heads up, you and your friends have to be really smart this time around. I’ve seen my other Muslim sisters and brothers pushing their very best last month, unleashing the soldier in them. I saw them as strong as they could’ve been all this while. Who would’ve thought that brother could stand for 20 rakaahs listening to the Imam, without understanding anything? Who could’ve thought that that sister could put on her hijab properly this time, for a whole month! Who could’ve thought that these brothers could complete their iktikaf? Shutting off from the world and to focus only on pleasing Allah, mashAllah that’s just amazing! I’m not kidding you shaytan, these people are amazing I’m warning you. They really, truly fasted. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">I bet this Ramadan spirit is killing you already.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">So maybe you have to come up with better tricks this time.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">But don’t do the ghost thing, that’s really cheap. </div><!--EndFragment--> qistinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08755063806285794759noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524508286720317410.post-67202569620989110112011-08-22T08:48:00.001-07:002011-08-22T08:53:03.650-07:00somalians are dying, but u dont have to stop eating.<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Was shopping for Eid,</div><div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">while fellow somalians are looking for something to eat,</div><div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">which looks best? brown bag or the green dress?</div><div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">while Hamza told wifey 'sorry hun, no food, tried my best'</div><div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">'tell our son lets pray and hope for the best'</div><div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">'maybe we can eat some leftovers, wasnt there bread?'</div><div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">'if there was bread then Mulmillo wouldn't starve to death'</div><div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">So I was reading the Quran after Asr, not because I have nothing else to do, but because it’s a nice thing to do :)</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">I was reading the 49<sup>th</sup> surah, al-Hujurat.

Because it takes a loooot of time to read the meaning of verse 1, then recite it in Arabic, then read the meaning of verse 2, then recite it in Arabic. It’s a tiring process. So I read the translation of for example, a whole page 516, then only will I recite the whole page in Arabic. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">I came to a conclusion that the paragraph above is unnecessary. Eh, sorry.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">So I was reciting the 9<sup>th</sup> verse, and came across the word <b>yuhibbu</b> which means <b>love</b>.

So I checked and it says, <b>For Allah loves those who are fair (and just).</b> Go back to the Arabic, which reads, <b>InnAllaha yuhibbul muqsiteen</b>.

As usual, I jotted down some points. But you still have to watch it! Don't be lazy! It's Ramadhan!<br />
These are just some points, but there;s more if you watch the whole video. I can't describe my note as a summary of the whole video.<br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal">I’ve been falling in love over and over and over again, and the feeling is growing stronger as we breathe! I’m feeling so good SubhanAllah! Who’s the luckiest guy on earth you ask? Its my dearest Holy Quran! The words/kalam of Allah. I figured out this maybe one of the symptoms of pre-Ramadhan. Like yesterday morning I kissed my Quran out of randomness. I was busy with some stuff so that morning I didn’t get to read it, then the lovely part of me came out and made me kiss the Quran :D</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
Like how Native Deen said it,<br />

</span></span></div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div></div><div class="MsoNormal">I thank Allah, the Most Loving, for putting this love inside my heart. Oh how I wish I felt this long ago..It soothes me every time I read it. It crossed my mind ; SubhanaAllah, these are the exact same words that the Prophet (peace be upon him) tought, the exact same words that the Sahabas used to read, and now I’m reading it again, thousand years later. The imagination was waaay beyond my limit that I just sat and kept on pondering about it. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Oh Allah, please grant me more and more love so that I can ALWAYS love you as much as the other mukminins love you..I love you oh Allah, but sometimes I forgot. Sometimes I say I do, but deep in my heart I don’t really mean it. Audhubiilah..Astagfirullahalazim. Sometimes I seek for love from other slaves, thus forgetting You. If you make me love another slave even in the most halal way, please make it so that my love for him will never be even a dot more than that my love for my Lord. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Sorry but yes I can be a bit emotional at times. Okay I’m cool now.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">So I wanna share with you my current caller tone that I’ve been using for the past few weeks. Its beneficial and catchy at the same time.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

My mom heard this when I used it as my alarm clock (but never wake up to it) and she's like <b>"Whats that song that I always hear in the morning? Its soo nice!"</b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">I can’t wait for Ramadhan, hope my love for the Quran will remain as much and stronger insyaAllah. Then I can’t wait for Eid to come so that I can FLY to Egypt!</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Ana auza rouh ila Masr! I want to go to Egypt! <span style="font-family: Wingdings;">ß</span> My Arabic is crappy, thus the translation.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">And I had a funny conversation with a dear friend. Caution : I may or may not exagerrated the conversation, but its somethin like dat.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">Me : <b>OMG I can’t wait for Ramadhan!!!</b> <i>(then I shrieked a bit)</i></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><br />

Its the thing where you text them (the tv people) your name and your lover's name. Then your name will come out on tv with the percentage of your love. I dont really know what the percentage presents, but i think its like the 'level of love' looooool thats the dorkiest thing on human land. Some couple get a 33 and some get as high as 90 (yayyyy an A+ in a relationship!) . And then beside that percentage thing is a column for advice. For example, the couple's name are Jeffrey and Lyn. Then the advice will be like, ''The main cause of the problems in this relationship is jeffrey's jealousy. So jeffrey you need to cool down a bit'' So much for a 50cents advice on tv. Jeffrey might be the nicest guy on earth and it might even turn out that Lyn is the biggest jealous freak ever lol i'm just generalizing normal relationships. I kinda think the (most probably) woman that wrote the advices is not even married yet, probably worse, don't even have a boyfriend. Its kinda fun, you know, reading the advices!<br />
<br />
Then funny names will pop out, (this is the funnest part, reading names) like James and Adam. Lmaooooooo! <b>Gays on TV! Gays on TV!</b> Then there's, Vampire and Iblees (shayyytan). Dang they scored some pretty high percentage. Yeah I always thought these two had it going on. You go, creatures!<br />
<br />
one more advice - If you have a problem for Ene as a person, talk to her face to face and solve the problem. (OMG i cant believe it! Ene is an alien??)<br />
<br />
So people don't waste too much time on stuffs like this. There are like sooo many things else goin on in this world!<br />

<br />
<b>"Ahh! Oh God, (sorry i'm not complaining but) i hate headache"</b><br />
<br />
The pain was so sudden, so i thought <b>"this is weird.."</b><br />
<br />
Then it became severe.<br />
<br />
But I was pretty sure I don't have migraines.<br />
<br />
<br />
Then I found out that I was actually leaning my head towards a paperbox, so the edge of the paperbox was kinda like poking thru my head. So yeah that explains.<br />
<br />
That explains that I have nothing to blog about. I do have 1 award to be posted though but I'm looking for friends to tag it to. Please you, be my friend :)<br />

So the conversation went something like this (might not be precise, i was reading the subtitles cos tv was on mute cos mom's sleeping)..<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><b>'Tell me what happened'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>'They teased me'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b> </b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
<b>'What was it about?'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>'Bout me and girls'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b> </b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
<b>'Why?'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b> </b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
<b>'They said i'm a virgin'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>'ARE YOU?'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b> </b>(with a really confused look on his face) </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>'I don't know, probably'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>(</b>maybe he's a muslim then?)<b> </b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>'WHY?'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>'Don't you like girls?'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>'Of course I like girls, I think bout dem all the time' </b>(lol scaaaryy)<b> </b> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>'So have you ever been with any girls?'</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>'Yea when I was small, I was kissed. I hate it and I puked' </b></div><div style="text-align: center;">(turned out he was sexually abused so that explains)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Later on he (Antwone) was telling the psychiatrist navy dude bout the abuse, bout how he had never been (he meant sexual intercourse) with any women in his life because of that, about how much he wants to do it but he just can't <strike>get someone pregnant</strike> do it. And then the psychiatrist was saying stuffs like <b>'you should really think about this problem'. </b>So the problem that they were talking here was, Antwone haven't slept with any girls and that's a really serious matter! Then Antwone went nuts and halfly screamed;</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>'I'm already 25 and I am so ashamed (that I'm still a virgin)!'</b> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I was so confused when I watched this. I mean, What kind of mentality is this? Its Funny! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Oh sadd, I was so busy typing this that the movie almost ended.So I can't tell you if his mind is still in that funny state.Okay now his soon-to-be girlfriend is hugging him and then he's smiling, and then they almost kissed (go Antwone, thats a start!)........... and then my mom switched off the tv. (yea suddenly she's awake) Thank you mama. </div><div style="text-align: center;">So i guess Antwone is normal now?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">If that so, I don't wanna be normal, I'll stay a freak.</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Trying really hard to do dhikr instead of singing along to Akon. Mann his song is sooo addictive..oh Afrikaaaaa lol. It is hard to quit music when everyone around you are enjoying it. Oh no lemme get it right. It is hard to quit GOOD music..crappy musics are so easy to get rid of, they're like people that you can't stand but you can't do nothing about it because they keep coming around. You get me? And good music is like a bestfriend, who turned out to be a friggin backstabber, so you hate her now, but you still miss those wonderful moments. Ahh what a nice metaphore. Back to the topic. Yeah, its hard to quit good music when everyone around you are enjoying it. <br />
<br />
May Allah make it easy for me, and for you too, in anything you do.<br />
<br />
I'm not here to brag about me quitting music, about this small jihad. But i hope I at least can inspire others who haven't quit music to start leaving it behind. Yes it is hard, just pray to Allah that He will count everything we do to be closer to Him, to do whatever He say we have to. Be patient and trust Allah, trust that He will help those who ask for Him.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #42426f; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;">When My servants ask thee concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them): I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calleth on Me: Let them also, with a will, listen to My call, and believe in Me: that they may walk in the right way. Al-Baqarah (2:186)</span><br />
<br />
I was told that perseverance and patience will always be rewarded by Allah. Alhamdulillah. I always forgot how Most Giving He is, or the fact that He is Most Merciful. <br />
<br />
For all the sins I've done today, but not a single thing He took from me. Not a single hardship He put on me. Instead I am still here, enjoying more and more and more blessings from Him. What a weird way of repaying my sins! How can I not love Him? How can I not be thankful?<br />
<br />
Imagine if He ain't merciful. If for every sin you do, one thing will be taken away? Maybe a finger cut, maybe a leg amputated right away. But no! He is the Most Merciful! So where is my Alhamdulillah? Are my deeds enough to repay whatever He gave me?<br />
<br />
Oh was I talking about music, then about being thankful? Off-tracked. Off-tracked.<br />
<br />
Maybe not really off-tracked. For all that He had and will give me, so why not I make a little bit of sacrifice to quit enjoying a dot of worldly entertainment in order to please Him?<br />
<br />
Oh all these blessings...<br />
Oh Allah, You are just Great! Thank You!

<div class="MsoNormal">All the small things that we thought its nothing</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">We as humans, often take the small things for granted. Like when that little part of the hand exposed whenever the loose sleeves move about. No matter how small we thought it is, its still awrah. So many women in the Jahannam, when actually it’s the guys that have more responsibilities, maybe it’s the awrah that they thought was nothing. Wallahua’lam. Everything will be held accountable, even the small things. This, we always forget. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Or those times when we skipped saying ‘peace be upon him’ whenever Muhammad was mentioned. Where have our loves for him has gone? Where’s the respect? This man who cried out for us when he was dying. This man who cared so much for us, misses us, though we haven’t even met yet. This man who’s willing to do anything just to bring us closer to jannah. This man we’ve never met. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal">Or that habit of delaying the call of prayer. We say ‘its ok to pray later, at least I’m praying’. I hate to see me stuck to my laptop when the adhan finishes. I hate to see others stuck to their asses when the adhan finishes. Or sleep just minutes before the adhan. How fast do we react to phone calls compared to God’s calls? We thought its just a small thing, not much of a big deal. But maybe its these things we thought small and harmless that might be the ones that’ll brings us closer to the Jahannam. And even further away from Jannah.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

But just as i was gonna do that, M93 forwarded an e-mail to me, regarding music. What a beautiful coincidence! The e-mail went something like 'Do you listen to music, and want to stop?'. MasyaAllah i was speechless when I was reading it. Thanks M93 and of course thank you my Lord. Just when i was looking for signs and clues and reasons, He answered my prayers, my needs.<br />
<br />
So now here I am in front of my laptop, deleting songs. It was pretty hard as I always feel really connected to the songs I listen to. Bye Babyface, BoyzIIMen, Lionel Richie, Earth Wind and Fire, K-Ci and Jojo, Patrick Stump..the last song I listened to was Last Night's Letter by K-Ci and Jojo if I'm not mistaken. Whatever it is, adios!<br />

I had this thing going on in my head for quite some time already, but I kinda ignore it. But what inspired me the most was the fact that there are lots and lots of musicians out there that gave up music, though music was their passion, their lifestyle. While here I am just a listener, know nothing about music but still have a harder time to let it go. I feel so weak watching them in their jihad. Muslim Belal even starts rapping with no music, UK Apache or Abdul Wahab too stopped music, Masikah Feesabilillah too stopped music. So many people stopped so why not me? I'm a Muslim too..<br />
<br />
I was watching a video of Masikah and SubhanaAllah i haven't been more inspired. As he said 'music is like fitna to me'. And an older man was telling him how he's putting Jannah at risk for doing music.<br />
<br />
Some people believe that we can't change ourselves overnight. So some people might say you can start by listening to less music. But I believe that if there's a strong will, anything is possible if Allah wills it. Yes giving up music is really hard, but I'm doing it for my Lord, my deen, my faith. There's a reward for being patient and for the jihad of the nafs. <b>So this is my jihad</b>. Maybe some will cal me outdated and ask me to be more open minded..There are too many arguments and discussions about how music is haram and whatnot, and some believe thats its halal as long as you don't go astray, wallahua'lam, but i just wanna be on the safe side, I'm just a weak slave spending my last hours or maybe minutes on this earth so why not do my best?<br />
