Dont judge the book by its cover

I have been meaning to write about this issue a long time ago. It seems that Malays particularly, focus only on appearance and not a kind heart as whole. Appearance notoriety is at its best in Malaysia especially among the Malay community. Nobody actually cares for a kind heart. No compassion, no sensitivity, no unity.

All these are clearly seen in the recent accidents involving our MAS. Comments such as from stewardess not wearing headscarf and serving alcohol in flight to not reciting doa for all before take off (especially for MH370). Why do you need to call it bala? For all you know these people who died in these freak accidents all mati syahid. They are one level above you in the afterlife already you know.

Worst of all appearance is only one branch of it, there are other branches like be humble, be kind toward human and animals, be helpful, be aware of ppls feelings, be good to your neighbours, be respectful your spouse and family and berdakwah secara baik not mengutuk sesuka hati.

What I meant to say is, there are spiritual obligations AND worldly obligations. You cannot just be spiritually pious and you think its okay to have a temper, to kill animals for no reason and not respecting other ppl.

You have to strive for BOTH. BOTH. BOTH.

Everybody is so busy looking after appearances that they forget islam teaches everything as a whole. If you wear a headscarf or kopiah but you talk bad about people, you always belittle people and you kick cats and kill dogs, that does not embody what islam teach at all. It doesn’t mean you are baik if you wear tudung only for appearance but you leave all other teachings out just because you think you’ve covered your head. Case study Kiki Kamaruddin. How bad is her akhlak? But she covered her head so its okay. Bleaghhhhhhhh NOT

If you don’t cover your head then you are a slut and you are free thinker and you know nothing about islam. Even though those who do not wear the headscarf has more compassion than you lot. A kind heart does not give a meaning because your appearance does not conform to it. How plain stupid is that?

And then you pray five times a day, you memorise some of verses in quran, you feel that you are holier than thou when what you do is succumb to your temper , mistreated your spouse and feel that people who don’t do what you do is lower than you hence you will masuk syurga. Again, Islam teaches that it is not just praying and relationship with god, but human relationship is equally important as well. Your sins with Allah is one thing but your sins with human being is another thing. Allah will not forgive your sins with others because you need to seek forgiveness from the others not Allah for your wrongdoings to them.

As a muslim we should look back at our heart. Make sure it is whole and clean. That is the ultimate measure of how honestly pious you are rather than concentrating on appearance only.

Only kind hearted ppl will go to Jannah actually not ppl who strive on appearance to look good in front of others.

It's a catty life ^____^

Hellloooooo my blog i've missed you !

It has been nearly a year since my last entry. Things have changed a lot. Obviously haha. We strive to be better day by day. That is how we should live our life anyway.

My anger has dissipated (well, most of it). I took a chance to adopt a cat in October last year. Poor little thing was left to die in front of standard charted building near my office. She is now almost a year old already now and im so proud of her for surviving well albeit her constant coughing daily due to a punctured lung as a result of being attacked by a bigger cat. Her name is Anyau because that's what i called her initially. Fyi, i call any cat anyau in general. Just got stuck to her but then she has her other nickname like kahuna or kakak huna. Kakak huna because i adopted another 2 kitties after her! Now i have three cute kitties to take care of! ^_____^

As crazy (stupid?) as it sounds, i realise that i am not allergic to cats per se but because dusts caught in their fur and shedding collects dust, etc. DUST is the main culprit. And so i have to do extra cleaning like vacuuming or sweeping and mopping every 2-3 days....take antihistamine nearly on a daily basis...sigh... things that i do for my cats -____-"

The second one is a british short hair silver tabby named Olaf. It is a birthday present from ze husband seeing how happy I am living with a cat. Olaf also has his nicknames like Lafu, Abang Lafu, Lapu lapi and pu pi. See how the name evolves! haha :p Olaf is about 5 months old now and he is so cute like a teddy bear! ^_____^

Now the third one i just found her recently near the goldhill building open car park. She was wandering by herself looking for food and was looking kindda lonely and scared. I've named her Lola initially but changed it to Lulu as per my friend Nora's request because she is going to help me take care of Lulu. I wanted to put her up for adoption, but then again she is such a well mannered cat. I can even bring her to travel in a car without any hassle provided that she gets to sit on the lap all the way. No sound no agitation she will just gaze at me, play with my fingers and then eventually fall asleep....zzzZZZzzzzzz =^ ^=

Its a catty day everyone! How cute are they! :)

Cats have always been my first love and forever love :)
