:: proud as being one ::


First Circle

Are you religious?
- MashaAllah I am far from that. May
Allah swt gives me taufiq and open up
the door of hidayah for me out of His
Mercy.

Do you believe in an afterlife?
- i believe that the grave is the
first stage to eternity. I believe in
the Resurrection where all hidden
deeds will be made apparent, one will
be accountable of one’s times spent
int his world. I believe in the
everlasting life in Jannah where you
will never die, in there is
everlasting health and you will never
be sick, in there is perpetual youth
and you will never grow old, and in
there is everlasting bliss and you
will never be in want. And I believe
in the fiery punishment in Jahannam,
in there one will be entertained with
fierce blast Fire and boiling water.

Do you criticize other religions?
- if u don’t truly know your own
religion, then speak good and remain
silent.

Do you think that believing in an
ultimate being is dumb?
- look around you, up above and below.
Is not the signs obvious that there is
an Ultimate Being who bring all of
these into existence?

Second Circle

Is your body sacred, or is it a toy?
- it’s one the most sacred thing in a
woman. That is why Islam emphasizes so
much on it.
Women are of two kinds, a flower and a
concealed pearl. Any woman can be a
flower and she may be beautiful, but
she will let herself be picked by
anyone, and passed on to one after
another, after so much sniffing and
touching, her wonderful scents is
lost, her beauty withered and expires,
thus who would want her anymore? but
not many woman is a concealed pearl,
and if she is then she is like a
hidden treasure. Only the deserving
ones the lucky ones who shall discover
her will have the pleasure of her
beauty. And a concealed pearl is a
woman who protects her chastity,
covers herself with modesty, only
reserving herself for one that
deserves her. What an honor for both
of them. And a true dignified woman is
definitely a woman with all these
qualities, the qualities which are
instilled in the wives of The Prophet
(may peace and blessing be upon him),
in Muslim women especially. Not the
bare naked ladies whom are let loose
by their spouses for every stranger on
the street to have lustful gazes on
them. Funny when they said muslim
women should be liberated. Liberated
from what? Pure dignity? Then what,
turn them into a worthless person?
May every woman in this world be
granted the honour of true beauty.

Do you think having sex is something to
be proud of?
- only a beast will be proud of his
carnal desire.

Do you find yourself constantly having
romantic thoughts?
- All Sufis are romantics but not all
romantics are Sufis. It doesn’t answer
the Q but it just popped in my mind. =)

Would you date someone who is sexually
active?
- its not an attractive offer to go
after a man who is vigorously after
his carnal desires.

What is your favorite part of a
romantic
TV show, movie, or book?
- an honest line, gesture that comes
from the heart.

Third Circle

What is something you find yourself
constantly wanting?
- Reason, as the root of my faith.
Knowledge and wisdom as my capital.
Love, as my foundation. Remembrance of
Allah, as my companion.
Firm conviction of Imaan as my power.
Mercy, forgiveness and hope as I am a
hopeless donkey. Sigh I am in so much
wants and needs! And pleasure in my
prayer.

Do you reward yourself?
- I can’t afford to reward myself, but
I am constantly finding means to be
rewarded by One Whom All Rewards came
from.

Do you heal hurt feelings with food?
- can you really eat well when u’re
not feeling well?

Do you overeat?
- that’s what worries me, this donkey
can be a horse sometimes!

Fourth Circle

What is your favorite object?
- My collection of Deeni books

If your house was on fire, would you
save this object?
- Na’udzubillahi mnzalik. With Allah’s
help, yes! What I’d do without my
treasure chest of reminders?!

Would you sell this object if a million
dollars was offered for it?
- I guess so, then I can get more of
them and I could always use extra
money. And spend on something that
will please The Most Giving.

Why is this object important to you?
- it has served and will continue to
serve me with abundance of knowledge
and wisdom. InshaAllah.

Fifth Circle

If someone talked smack about you, what
would you do?
- I’d make dua that Allah have mercy
on them and forgives them for what
they not know of.

Do you fight with words or punches?
- can I choose not to fight?
Definitely not physical assault.

Do you find yourself saying mean things
to people over the internet (which is
being a pussy, I'll have you know) that
you wouldn't say in real life?
- just don’t treat others the way u
would not like to be treated.

If someone dissed something you worked
hard on, what would you do?
- what is there to do? If it’s a
constructive criticism I’d gladly
appreciate and be thankful on their
valuable attention on it. If its just
to diss only God knows for what
reason, then would it matter to me?
It’s not their attention that I value.

Forgive and forget, or forget to
forgive?
- yeah agree, forgetting aint easy.
Forgive for the sake of Allah, Forget
for the sake of Allah. inshaAllah
things will be a lott more easier =)

Sixth Circle

What illegal or sacrilegious activites
do you practice?
- istighfar bnyk2 eh.

Are you rebellious against your
religions' teachings?
- O Allah, help me hold firmly my Iman
and Islam. Ameen.

Have you ever felt the desire to
practice witch craft?
- alhamdulillah there’s never such
vicious desire.

Seventh Circle

Do you have violent thoughts about the
person you hate?
- Life is so short there isn’t enough
time to love. Where do ppl find time
to hate??

Have you ever wanted to kill someone?
- Has humanity becomes so malicious
towards one another that this Q is
becoming popular??

Who was the last person you hit?
- a makcik in a kancil =S that thing u
drive is a destructive weapon you’re
carrying, so don’t let yrself be in
total heedlessness when u’re driving
it!

What weapon would you want if you
entered a Battle Royale situation
(basically, where you hafta kill your
classmates and friends)?
- Gory! No! can we not behead anyone
especially classmates and friends?!!

Have you ever wanted to take a martial
arts class?
- yes, at one point Ilyas talked me
into taking aikido. Lol.

Eighth Circle

Do you do things you know are bad?
- I’m a weak helpless donkey. I cant
bring myself fight the beast =(

Would you work for a corrupt
association that paid you big bucks?
- I don’t wanna go anywhere near
corruption. This world is so full of
it. To find one honest fella is
difficult at this day and age. Are we
not worried of what we are becoming?

Ninth Circle

Would you rather be a traitor against
your friends or family?
- this Q is not getting anywhere good

When is it an alright time to betray
your loved ones?
- and it’s getting impossible. I’d be
surprised if anyone would suggest its
alright.

How do you feel when someone betrays
you?
- im tired. Lets just end It here.
Justification do no justice sometimes.

As I stumbled upon the bulletin that has been posted by my sister Weckie, I smiled. The thought of having such a wonderful sister like her really make me proud. I noticed that most people will tend to post a lot of surveys on the Friendster Bulletin Board sharing their thoughts about mostly every single thing in life (including me). People like me, we take it as something fun to do which is sometimes we do forget that we should share more on things like this.

Something that could help to build up oneself to become a better person. Something that could make you think that actually life is too short to be wasted on other things. As we live only for a while and one day, we will leave this world. As for me on the other hand, I am way much different from my sister. She has changed for the past one year plus and here I am, I have changed slowly and yet I am still me.

Reading her blog has really made my day. At least something that could motivate me and I really appreciate that. I am thankful as she has made me remember that no matter how successful and happy one can be, no matter how wealthy and powerful one can be, no matter how u belong to your beloved ones, we as a human who has bow to our first responsibility as the khalifah in this world, no matter how far we could go in life, we will one day return to our owner. The one and only The Almighty Allah. Because, we belong to The Almighty.

May Allah swt gives me taufiq and open up the door of hidayah for me out of His Mercy.

Ameen.
