3rd Ramadhan 1427H

only 26 days of Ramadhan left...
~usah biarkan Ramadhan kali ini berlalu begitu sahaja~
-a reminder first to myself, and then to others, insyaAllah. for we'll never know whether or not we'll be fortunate enough to meet the next Ramadhan...

indeed, such a special reward is promised for those who fast:

Sahl ibn Sa'd reported that the Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam said: "There is a gate to Paradise that is called ar-Rayyan. On the Day of Resurrection it will say: 'Where are those who fasted?' When the last [one] has passed through the gate, it will be locked."
[al-Bukhari and Muslim].


sedap pulak kan name ar-Rayyan tu? do u think what i'm thinking?... hee~ yep. insyaAllah if i were to have two sons in the future, i might consider naming my 2nd son by that lovely name... my 1st son? oh. some of u would have known what i have in mind for him... lurve that name a LOT. ever since i first heard it.
btw, those Arabic words mean: "if the heart does not repent and increases in piety in Ramadhan, then WHEN is it going to repent?"
> something like that lah eh... the Arabic language is so magnificent that sometimes when we try to translate it, jadi mcm tak sedap gitu uh..
.............
wanna add on to my previous post on the Pope's citation. Now it's the over-reaction of some Muslims around the world that is troubling n disappointing, not to mention embarrasing. "destroying churches... death threats to the Pope"??? shame on them who even think of such unIslamic acts. by reacting in such a violent manner, do they really think that they are portraying a positive image of Islam? are they helping to convince the non-Muslims that Islam is indeed a peaceful religion??
see the consequences of acting out of anger? out of nafs? Afalaa yatafakkaruun??
...........
anw, i'm back in the lab. my partner has moved on to patient samples, (n keep asking me: "u still haven't got ur bands?? O_o") leaving me still struggling with the optimisation stage... takpe~
till here, ma'as salaamah :)
