Maths 16/10/2011

i've noticed recently i've started to do my maths in english.

i havent done much multiplication but...english maths seems to be slowly taking over.

i still cant count above 12-ish in english. I dont know if thats a relief. and why it should be.

clinging on to frenchness...why?

sometimes i feel like a coward and like ive betrayed all my muslim french sis for running away to UK. but..at the end of the day.. Allah wouldnt have want us to suffer for no reason when there's an easier way out.

that is all.

Wasting Time - Nouman Ali Khan

edit: btw see the title? wasting time. and that talk is ONLY 30mins. how many slot of 30mins do we waste a day? and ALHAMDOULILLAH there is a pause button right? you have 10mins to spare; you listen to 10mins of that talk, then next time you have 5, you forward the vid and listen to 5. dont let Shaytaan tell you " oh but you want to be a good muslim and listen to that talk all in one go" whaaaat?? whyyyy???

this talk is just so amazing, i cannot start to explain how.

this is just bits and bobs i found good. not a summary. (and i started this blog in the middle of the talk so...sorry..)

Saturday 8th October

I HATE PUBLIC DISPLAYS OF AFFECTION

and

I want to be part of Charity Week for the REst of my Life

The ultimate vision of Charity Week is to become a vehicle to inspire Muslim students to become active, socially engaged and united upon Islam. Raising money to help countless Orphans & Needy Children across the World - a beautiful bonus!

the difference with this charity, is that the money comes AFTER. it's all about the unity.

at the briefing some guy used an awesome metaphor.

Prayer Times

'Abdullah b. 'Amr reported (RA): The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: The time of the noon prayer is when the sun passes the meridian and a man's shadow is the same (length) as his height, (and it lasts) as long as the time for the afternoon prayer has not come; the time for the afternoon prayer is as long as the sun has not become pale; the time of the evening prayer is as long as the twilight has not ended; the time of the night prayer is up to the middle of the average night and the time of the morning prayer is from the appearance of dawn, as long as the sun has not risen; but when the sun rises, refrain from prayer for it rises between the horns of the devil. [Muslim]

'Abdullah b. 'Amr reported (RA):

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

The doc- and Health

I went doc today, and came back with "everything fine". realised i wasnt so happy about this then caught myself in that state and told myself off.

We need to wake up from this "oh, this useless doc didnt give me anything/oh! he said im fine and ive got nothing wrong" etc...

The doc is the doc and he/she knows what he/she is doing (...)

If we're fine, then we should say ALHAMDOULILLAH, thank Allah for this health so many people around us dont have.

not getting meds/not being sent to pharmacy/not having "something wrong" are blessings. lets keep that in mind and stop thinking we've got something wrong, (and feeling annoyed/upset/angry) when we're told we haven't.

All good things come to an end...

I was reading Mr Zac's blog as i havent been keeping up, and really enjoying it as well, i basically didnt want to stop.

even though i told myself, okay half past six, we stop and go do something else. Half past six came and i didnt look like I was going to move...

until mum called me upstairs with a scary motherly voice, so i closed all zacparsons.com tabs and went.

and while upstairs; i realised. If there wasnt a greater purpose, I would never have stopped reading that blog (greater purpose being Allah who says listen to your parents). on a more general term, I would never stop gaving fun. I would do everything I wanted to do whenever I wanted and just have fun all the time.

Secret of the Heart - Part 2

EPISODE 5


this ep is about reflecting on the three types of hearts

sound heart - protected from the two types of diseases. Shaytaan also intensifies the desires/doubts. - the people with those hearts can enter paradize.

doubts/misconceptions - wrong understanding, about reality of this world, about the creator about how we should draw closer to Him. these harms and scars the heart.

people who let desires take over the heart or let their guard down to misconceptions - by listening, looking, seeing them, They make their heart easy targets to shaytaan. but still havent lost their heart yet.

Secrets of the heart - Part 1

INTRO

this is about WHY we should talk about the Heart.

Heart is more important aspect of this life that we should focus on, if we neglect heart we lose beauty of this world and ultimate happiness in the next life

In everyday language, when we talk about the core of the matter- the bottom line, we say “that’s the heart of the matter” using this in everyday language – the heart is most important, central aspect of the thing we are talking about.

The heart of city – the alive, vibrant part of city when everything happen
The heart of the matter – what we need to focus on
