Allah is the best of planners

had planned to go to Dandeli for weeks now. but Allah has better plans for us :) He send us raining season to help us decide on whether to go or not to. me and friends been having this argument back and forth to predict when is the raining season starting (lol) since if it is raining season, it will be one dangerous place im sure. His guidance arrived fortunately before we make the reservation and pay deposit! thanks Allah!

Alhamdulillah, trial exam finished. and one lesson i learnt most this time is, Allah has the MOST POWER in everything. principle of tawakal is tested actually during exam time, and i hope i didnt fail in that test! Allah to You i pray and to You i hope :)

“They plan and Allah also plans. And Allah is the best of planners.” (Surah Imraan, verse 54)

guilty

i know im not the greatest friend you could ask for, might not even be that good as well. i do mistakes, i get hurt and at times i hurt people. im still learning and still under His tarbiyah. to annamirah, all i can say is, im sorry. understandable if you want to hate me, and never going to talk to me again.. well, you are not talking to me now already.... i deserve it i know.

anyhow, i admit i did a wrong deed and i cant apologize enough on that. take care dear, and be good. i love you much, always have always will insyaAllah (regardless whatever happen...)

uhubbuki fillah. salam syg dari India.

those time..

i remember those time when i start counting
days to fly back home
luggage packed months before
for the countdown started from the moment i step again in India

i remember those time when i arrive to Malaysia from India
those smiles and the excitements
the laughter and the hugs
no worry at all whats going on back at college
what matters most is now
but time does fly too fast

i remember those time when i have to say goodbye
if only they know how nervous i am each time
for leaving them behind is not what i want to do
the hugs felt different
and the tears fall with the steps
walking thro that lane alone

i remember those time when i arrive to India from Malaysia
with handful of heavy luggage
and arm decorated with scratches all over
from the fights with my sisters
but more that hurt is
the aching felt within
the urge to be back home again

yes i do remember each and every time
due each memory
glistening of eyes

i will be back again
i will go thro those time again
but
Allah placed me here
for He have bigger plans
:)

حَسْبِىَ اللَّهُ لا إِلَـهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَهُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ
"Allah is sufficient for me. There is no God but He, in Him I put my trust and He is the Lord of the Mighty Throne."

TimE

when time is counted instead of left running by itself
when seconds passed with steps and days are the landmark
thats when you know you are using your time
and not having a moment to spare

exam exam exam, lets strive for the best, for Allah :)

p/s O Allah, please give me barakah in my time and rahmah in my every breath.

Honey Chicken

last time, i already asked dila for the recipe when she cooked chicken rice for us. since this dish is very easy to cook, and yummy, so i thought i want to do this again. then i realize i deleted the message containing this recipe so i had to ask Dila, again, for the recipe. to avoid this from happening again, might as well i put it up here hihi :) credit to Dila for the recipe

1. marinate the chicken with ginger and garlic paste (since i already marinated all my chicken but you can just add before frying )
2. fry the chicken until half cooked
3. add garlic and sliced onion (optional), cook till brown
4. add 8 spoons of honey, 2 spoons of soy sauce and 2 spoons of fish sauce (since i dont have fish sauce, i replace it with 1 spoon of oyster sauce)
5. cook for 5-10 minutes under low heat

Empty Bubbles and The Chosen Ones

Daripada Tsauban ra berkata : Rasulullah saw bersabda : "Hampir tiba suatu masa di mana bangsa-bangsa dari seluruh dunia akan datang mengerumuni kamu bagaikan orang-orang yang hendak makan mengerumuni talam hidangan mereka". Maka salah seorang sahabat bertanya, "Apakah dari kerana kami sedikit pada hari itu?" Nabi saw menjawab, "Bahkan kamu pada hari itu banyak sekali, tetapi kamu umpama buih di waktu banjir, dan Allah akan mencabut rasa gerun terhadap kamu dari hati musuh-musuh kamu, dan Allah akan mencampakkan ke dalam hati kamu penyakit 'wahan'. Seorang sahabat bertanya, "Apakah wahan itu wahai Rasulullah?". Nabi menjawab : "Cinta pada dunia dan takut pada mati".

-HR Abu Daud-

Daripada Abu Hurairah ra berkata : Bersabda Rasulullah SAW : " Islam mula tersebar dalam keadaan dagang (asing). Dan ia akan kembali asing pula. Maka beruntunglah orang-orang yang asing".

-HR Muslim-

Daripada Aisyah ra berkata : "Aku mendengar Rasulullah SAW bersabda : "Tidak akan berlaku hari kiamat sehingga anak seseorang menjadi punca kemarahan (bagi ibubapanya) dan hujan akan menjadi panas (hujan akan berkurang dan cuaca akan menjadi panas) dan akan bertambah ramai orang yang tercela dan akan berkurangan orang yang baik, dan anak-anak menjadi berani melawan orang-orang tua dan orang yang jahat berani melawan orang-orang baik".

- HR Thabrani -

Di akhir zaman, kan Rasulullah dah ckp, umat Islam akan jadi sgt bnyk, umpama buih di laut. buih yg kosong, dipukul ombak kesanasini, and mudah sgt pecah kan? oh sye tak mahu jadi buih di laut. sye mahu jadi golongan yg Rasulullah ceritakan dlm hadis dia yg lagik satu, di mana akan ada satu golongan yg memegang agama seperti menggengam bara api.

hari tu bila keluar shopping dgn ayah kat KL, tgok muda mudi kiri kanan. cara pakaian, tutur kata dan budi bicara. keluar in group lelaki dan perempuan. caci maki dan perkataan tak senonoh tu seperti air yg keluar dari mulut diorg. melepak bergelak ketawa tak hirau keliling. astagfirullah, sye takut dan malu. sye pun muda mudi. sye jugak mereka. tp sye sendiri bnyk cela, masih terlalu perlahan dalam menyampaikan Islam itu pada kalangan sye sendiri :S terasa diri ni jahil sgt. sedih rasa sbb dh nmpk sgt apa yg Rasulullah maksudkan dgn buih2 tu (moga Allah bg kekuatan dan knowledge utk bawa generasi ini kearah kegemilang Islam insyaAllah)

jadi sye tanya ayah sye, knp ramai sgt dah macam ni. ayah sye cakap, "kan mmg Allah dan Rasulullah dah bgtau those the chosen ones (note the S on ones) mmg akan jadi sedikit kat akhir zaman. so bersyukurlah Allah chose you to be in jamaah, ada yg sentiasa membimbing dan menasihati moga2 kita termasuk dlm golongan the chosen ones tu insyaAllah"

ALHAMDULILLAH ALHAMDULILLAH ALHAMDULILLAH thanks Allah for placing me in jamaah, and giving me parents that really understand maratib amal. Ya Allah, peliharalah kami dalam iman, dan jadikanlah kami di antara yg sedikit dan terasing amin~

Oreo Banana Cream Pie

today is a good day, alhamdulillah. made new friends, insyaAllah hopefully the ukhuwah will be beneficial both ways.

will upload the pictures soon, when Nazira send me those pictures ;) and due to the request, here is the recipe for the pie :)



Oreo cookie crust

• 1 1/2 of Oreo biscuit ( around 15 pieces of the cookie sandwich)
• 5 tbsp of melted butter

1. Place the biscuits in a zip-lock bag and press the air out of the bag before sealing it
2. Just crush away with hammer (or any hard things hihi)
3. pour the biscuit in a bowl and add your melted butter, just mix everything together until everything is coated with the butter
4. place the mixture in your pie pan and spread it till you cover the whole bottom of your pan
5. bake for 5-10 minutes at 350F
6. remove and let it cool before pouring the topping

p/s : I applied a layer of white egg on top of the base to prevent the base from become soggy. and i think this recipe can be used for any other type of biscuit too :)

Banana Cream Pie

• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups milk
• 3 egg yolks, slightly beaten
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 3 ripe bananas

1. Mix sugar, flour and salt in a sauce pan.
2. Stir in the milk, and cook over low heat, stirring constantly until thickened.
3. Add the egg yolks one at a time, stirring after each addition.
4. Continue to cook the custard, stirring constantly, for around 5 minutes.
5. Remove from heat and stir in the butter, the mashed banana and the vanilla.
6. Let cool for 15 minutes, then pour into the prepared crust.
7. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, until thoroughly chilled.

p/s serve with whipped cream, if you want. for whipped cream, I just use fresh cream, icing sugar (this to make the whipped cream hold longer outside the fridge) and vanilla. whip the cream until thicken (dont overbeat it - buttery texture means too much beating)

hope this recipe helps :)

sickness

“Tidaklah seorang muslim tertimpa suatu penyakit dan sejenisnya, melainkan Allah akan mengugurkan bersamanya dosa-dosanya seperti pohon yang mengugurkan daun-daunnya”.

(HR. Bukhari no. 5660 dan Muslim no. 2571).

alhamdulillah :)

(155) And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits, but give glad tidings to As-Sabirin (the patient ones, etc.).(156) Who, when afflicted with calamity, say: "Truly! To Allah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return." (157) They are those on whom are the Salawat (i.e. blessings, etc.) (i.e. who are blessed and will be forgiven) from their Lord, and (they are those who) receive His Mercy, and it is they who are the guided-ones.

2:155-157
