COMPOSTING???

2010-06-22T21:34:00.006+08:00

I was thinking about Composting..it is not COMPOSING lol.. i bet everyone aware about this term plus this is one good way to help our earth. Compost is sort of organic material that derived from plants and animals that have been decomposed through aerobic decomposition. Usually the idea making DIY compose is more on domestic food waste..but mine is using rabbit manure.

I got this idea of making my own COMPOST fertilizer when i was looking at my backyard..thinking how to make use of my rabbit manure.Noted: actually u can use fresh rabbit manure as fertilizers but people think it is disgusting. Composting might change peoples perception i hope.

The problem is we only got small space plus there is no soil..everything was covered with concrete. So i've done some research about composting..for people who doesn't have a backyard or living in apartment....and i found one interesting article about making your own compost. Again ..i just need ideas especially on the compost container..which way is the best..to implement it on our house situation. You can refer to this link .. http://planetgreen.discovery.com/home-garden/apartment-compost-guide.html

I want to use EM(effective microorganism) replacing vermicompost worm.Here i want to try my own composting way. The materials will be:

a. rabbit manure

b. paper/saw dust

c. EM

d. a little bit of soil

e. agricultural lime

f. broken pail that i have at home..i will punch holes at side and at the bottom of it.

I will start looking for stuff..hope everything work! To all readers i always welcome your ideas..or comments..

age @ 26 and yet still single

2009-12-28T23:25:00.004+08:00

Happy b'day to me! am now officially 26 years old. trying to write something on this special day of mine.

Right now am thinking about most of my friends, they'll manage to settle down. some of them enjoying their days with kids and their hubby, having dinner with beloved one, wake up with someone beside them,recite the Quran, do their prayers with 'imam' of the family, sharing thoughts and ideas with someone their love...

and yet..it is still me who left behind. no one to talk to, no one to listen to..but i keep on praying. my very wish on my 26th bday 'i wanna have a family of my own'. it hurts to learned the truth about being ALONE. the hidden pain when i feel the EMPTINESS (though i got good friends to cheer me up!). but i wont give it up..this is just the beginning. : )

Ramadhan is coming again..this is the month of Blessings, the month full of Allah's reward. I am here to wish all of my dearest friend a very happy Ramadhan. May this Ramadhan will be better than before..

A Ramadan Poem,

by Donna Sibaai

The holy month of Ramadan

For all Muslims has begun.

Praising Allah through the day,

From dawn to dusk we fast and pray.

We pay zakah (charity) for those in need,

Trying hard to do good deeds.

When the sun has set, and day is done-

I'll break this chain, but only one.

By the end of Ramadan, this whole chain will be all gone!

It's time for Eid and lots of fun!!!

Green Thinking: The First Step

2009-05-09T08:21:00.008+08:00

Its GREEN again!

Green is a major issues that has been discuss by everyone in this planet. Me as a muslim as well as someone who shares this planet earth with all living things, as a Caliph who held the responsibilities must at least take one simple step on showing our support to help our beloved earth. Futhermore..islam is Green! naturally islam teaches the human how to live in harmony with the natural world. This is not something contrived or forced upon us, but an inevitable extension of living the islamic way of life.

Here is one simple suggestion..it's the easiest even a child can do this..

STEP ONE : Try not to take a plastic bag when you consume simple stuff (like candy, newspapers, soda etc etc).

Simple isn't it? Why i said this..u can always put those stuff inside your bag. I believe most of us always bring our own bag..since a simple stuff doesn't need a lot of space. Children can do it..no problem with adult. I already do this for a long time..since i was studying in Uitm. This is one step to reduce plastic usage. Of course there always lots of other way..but again just try this one simple step..if each of us from Malaysia apply this..i believe we can reduce tons of plastic waste everyday.

snip SNAP!

It's been a very busy week for me..since i am unofficially involved with Go Green (originally Kauthar's idea for project for ISSA). Lots of work to do but i am enjoying it. It was fun because somehow it's like moving one step further into the environment..(Islam is Green!) though it seems very small contribution but actually we're promoting sustainable development in larger perspective. We need to take action even with one simple step..the world need our help, enough damages, let's heal and revitalize this world again.

Nice Story : A Farmer and his donkey

2009-02-20T21:40:00.000+08:00

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey. He invited all his neighbours to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well.

At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he quieted down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was astonished at what he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up.

As the farmer's neighbours continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and happily trotted off!

MORAL

Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our troubles is a steppingstone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping, never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up.

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:

1. Free your heart from hatred - Forgive..
2. Free your mind from worries - Most never happen.
3. Live simply and appreciate what you have.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less

Valentine and Muslims

2009-02-11T00:45:00.000+08:00

Valentine Day : a very famous day that falls on 14th February every year. This day also known as 'Festival of Love' celebrating every lovers and couples from all over the world. What am about to highlight is not about Valentine Day but what it is for Muslims..this is an important reminder to all of my friends out there..

The History of Valentine

The Festival of Love was one of the festivals of the pagan Romans, when paganism was the prevalent religion of the Romans more than seventeen centuries ago. In the pagan Roman concept, it was an expression of "spiritual love".

There were myths associated with this pagan festival of the Romans, which persisted with their Christian heirs. Among the most famous of these myths was the Roman belief that Romulus, the founder of Rome, was suckled one day by a she-wolf, which gave him strength and wisdom.

The Romans used to celebrate this event in mid-February each year with a big festival.

One of the rituals of this festival was the sacrifice of a dog and a goat. Two strong and muscular youths would daub the blood of the dog and goat onto their bodies, then they would wash the blood away with milk. After that there would be a great parade, with these two youths at its head, which would go about the streets. The two youths would have pieces of leather with which they would hit everyone who crossed their path. The Roman women would welcome these blows, because they believed that they could prevent or cure infertility.

The connection between Saint Valentine and this Festival

Saint Valentine is a name which is given to two of the ancient "martyrs" of the Christian Church. It was said that there were two of them, or that there was only one, who died in Rome as the result of the persecution of the Gothic leader Claudius, c. 296 CE. In 350 CE, a church was built in Rome on the site of the place where he died, to perpetuate his memory.

When the Romans embraced Christianity, they continued to celebrate the Feast of Love mentioned above, but they changed it from the pagan concept of "spiritual love" to another concept known as the "martyrs of love", represented by Saint Valentine who had advocated love and peace, for which cause he was martyred, according to their claims. It was also called the Feast of Lovers, and Saint Valentine was considered to be the patron saint of lovers.

One of their false beliefs connected with this festival was that the names of girls who had reached marriageable age would be written on small rolls of paper and placed in a dish on a table. Then the young men who wanted to get married would be called, and each of them would pick a piece of paper. He would put himself at the service of the girl whose name he had drawn for one year, so that they could find out about one another. Then they would get married, or they would repeat the same process again on the day of the festival in the following year.

The Christian clergy reacted against this tradition, which they considered to have a corrupting influence on the morals of young men and women. It was abolished in Italy, where it had been well-known, then it was revived in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, when in some western countries there appeared shops which sold small books called “Valentine’s books”, which contained love poems, from which the one who wanted to send a greeting to his sweetheart could choose. They also contained suggestions for writing love letters.

(The above quotation is excerpted, with slight modifications, from www.Islam-qa.com)

As regards the Islamic stance on this festival, Dr. Su`ad Ibrahim Salih, professor of Islamic Jurisprudence (Fiqh) at Al-Azhar University, states the following:

Indeed, Islam is the religion of altruism, true love, and cooperation on that which is good and righteous. We implore Allah Almighty to gather us together under the umbrella of His All-encompassing Mercy, and to unite us together as one man.

Allah Almighty says: (The believers are naught else than brothers. Therefore make peace between your brethren and observe your duty to Allah that haply ye may obtain mercy.) (Al-Hujurat 49: 10)

Focusing more on the question in point, I can say that there are forms of expressing love that are religiously acceptable, while there are others that are not religiously acceptable. Among the forms of love that are religiously acceptable are those that include the love for Prophets and Messengers. It stands to reason that the love for Allah, and His Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) should have the top priority over all other forms of love.

Islam does recognize happy occasions that bring people closer to one another, and add spice to their lives. However, Islam goes against blindly imitating the West regarding a special occasion such as Valentine’s Day. Hence, commemorating that special day known as the Valentine’s Day is an innovation or bid`ah that has no religious backing. Every innovation of that kind is rejected, as far as Islam is concerned. Islam requires all Muslims to love one another all over the whole year, and reducing the whole year to a single day is totally rejected.

Hence, we Muslims ought not to follow in the footsteps of such innovations and superstitions that are common in what is known as the Valentine’s Day. No doubt that there are many irreligious practices that occur on that day, and those practices are capable of dissuading people from the true meanings of love and altruism to the extent that the celebration is reduced to a moral decline.

The Correct Hijab

2009-02-01T20:57:00.000+08:00

Something good to share, a reminder for parents alert, friends knowledge not to forget myself..about the right condition of our hijab. Sheikh Al-Albaani (may Allah have mercy on him) said:

The right condition of hijab:

1) It should cover all the body apart from whatever has been exempted

“O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e. screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed. And Allah is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.”

This aayah clearly states that it is obligatory to cover all of a woman’s beauty and adornments and not to display any part of that before non-mahram men (“strangers”) except for whatever appears unintentionally, in which case there will be no sin on them if they hasten to cover it up.

2) It should not be an adornment in and of itself

“… and not to show off their adornment…” [an-Nur 24:31]. The general meaning of this phrase includes the outer garment, because if it is decorated it will attract men’s attention to her.

3) It should be thick and not transparent or “see-through”

- because it cannot cover properly otherwise. Transparent or see-through clothing makes a woman more tempting and beautiful.

Concerning this the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “During the last days of my ummah there will be women who are clothed but naked, with something on their heads like the humps of camels. Curse them, for they are cursed.”

Another hadeeth adds: “They will not enter Paradise or even smell its fragrance, although its fragrance can be detected from such and such a distance. (Narrated by Muslim from the report of Abu Hurayrah)

4) It should be loose, not tight so that it describes any part of the body

The purpose of clothing is to prevent fitnah (temptation), and this can only be achieved if clothes are wide and loose. Tight clothes, even if they conceal the colour of the skin, still describe the size and shape of the body or part of it, and create a vivid image in the minds of men. The corruption or invitation to corruption that is inherent in that is quite obvious. So the clothes must be wide.

5) It should not be perfumed with bakhoor or fragrance

6) It should not resemble the clothing of men

7) It should not resemble the dress of kaafir women

It is stated in sharee’ah that Muslims, men and women alike, should not resemble or imitate the kuffaar with regard to worship, festivals or clothing that is specific to them. This is an important Islamic principle which nowadays, unfortunately, is neglected by many Muslims, even those who care about religion and calling others to Islam. This is due either to ignorance of their religion, or because they are following their own whims and desires, or because of deviation, combined with modern customs and imitation of kaafir Europe. This was one of the causes of the Muslims’ decline and weakness, which enabled the foreigners to overwhelm and colonize them.

“…Verily, Allah will not change the condition of a people as long as they do not change their state themselves …” al-Ra’d 13:11

8) It should not be a garment of fame and vanity

Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him said: The messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: ‘Whoever wears a garment of fame and vanity in this world, Allah will cloth him in a garment of humiliation on the Day of Resurrection, then He will cause Fire to flame up around him.’

25th bday!

2008-12-28T00:27:00.000+08:00

Epi burpday 2 u..

The 1st birthday wish, it is from my sister Husna. Now am officially 25 years living on earth. Still in good health Alhamdulillah, with good family and hope me and my family is blessed with peaceful and bright future insyaAllah. There so much i want to say today..so much i want to share..my du'as, what i want, what i feel and everything.

on my 25th birthday i prayed for..

* Forgiveness from Allah:
O Allah, I seek forgiveness for every sin, I committed, about which, of course, You know inside and out, from the beginning to the end of my life, whether committed deliberately or intentionally, few or many, abstruse or manifest, old or new, secretly carried out or openly done; and for whatever wrong I have done I turn repentant unto You and beseech You to bless Muhammad and the children of Muhammad and forgive all my unjust acts I did to wrong the people (because they have rights which I have to recognize and fulfill) but You have full authority to forgive those wrongdoings whenever and howsoever You wish, O the most merciful.

* My Parents & Family :
My Lord! bestow on my parents Thy Mercy even as they cherished me in childhood,

O my Lord, Grant me that i may be grateful for Thy favour which Thou has bestowed upon me, and upon both my parents, and that i may work righteousness such as Thou mayest approve; and be gracious to me in my issue. Truly have I turned to Thee and truly do I bow (to Thee) in Islam.

Our Lord! Give us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and defend us from the torment of the Fire!

on my 25th birthday i want..

*to be established emotionally and financially..
*to be part of community (in so many ways..using my talent, skills or whatever i have)..i want to contribute somehow someway..
*to help my family
*i wish to have a family of my own but after a long thought i think that will be my last target.

on my 25th birthday i feel like..

*There're so many things that i didn't do..
*Things that i wish for but i didn't get..
*a little regret for my previous relationship
*plain and dumb colors sticking inside my head

This make me thinking about one email (from kauthar) ..as for intro she said shes happy because she still breathing(i should feel the same..since am still have the chance to live on earth and commit myself to Allah) Alhamdulillah. This is her words that i cannot forget..

"...My mind stopped racing and I adopted a slow and mindful approach to everything I did. The strange thing to me was that even though I slowed everything down, I still got my house work done, and I came out the other end of it much more relaxed and pleased with what I achieved. I realised then that putting housework off, or not doing it at all, added to the stress of it. Doing it slowing, one task at a time, gave a rhythm to the day that helped the work flow...hmm maybe this is it...lets slow down...

But it wasn't only the housework that I applied this new philosophy to. It was also my relationships with people. I found that when I slowed down and concentrated on the person I was with, it made a difference. When I stopped thinking about what I would do later in the day, or tomorrow, and gave my thoughts as well as my time to the person I was with, I gave more and got a lot more in return. When I gave my best, they gave their best too....coz at the end of the day...we are only humans...

today im here...mayb tomorow im gone...at least my frens will make prayers for me...i hope!.."

This is her words..for me. am sorry kauthar(now i feel like crying) what u said all true. I need to forget all of this nonsense in my life. I have to move on. Yeah. I will try..

Eidul adha

2008-12-20T10:36:00.000+08:00

This eidul adha also known as the feast of sacrifice in islam. It is the major celebration for muslims after the conclusions of Hajj.

We took our chance to return back to our kampung (Sayong masjid, Kuala Kangsar, Perak) last two weeks. I just want to share some exicement that occured before and on the eidul adha. This eidul adha is much more happening because most of relatives return back to kampung (except for mok co-my ummi sister who lives in kedah) <-- means more chaos from our little cousins.

We also celebrating Maryam's (one the cousins) 2 years birthday..come to think of it..there are few of us that born on the same month (December) as Maryam, Mokcik(maryam's mother), Me and Aiman(my brother).. Hah..i missed all the noises made by those little children..watching them playing, arguing, screaming to each other bring back memories of our childhood..wish to become kids again.. nahhh impossible.

I don't know how to rotate this video (please tell me if you'll know how to do it) but enjoy the act of Ensem and Wawa. This movie is takes after the bath (usually we used a special spray for hamsters and rabbits) and my sister Farhanah is the one who captured this video. note: the voices in the video totally not mine..

Desaru in Memory

2008-12-11T10:12:00.000+08:00

We've gone to Desaru beach (Located in Johor-Peninsular Malaysia) at end of November. It is unofficial vacation since not all of us could make it and we're just following abah for his training programme (GREEN programme). We stays in Desaru Golden Beach Hotel for 3days. So there is just Abah, Ummi, Farhanah, Aiman and me. The beach scene was fantastic, very panoramic..

We met few new cool people..Saba & Ika (the GREEN admin staff) and Musliha(one of the trainer daughters). We found interesting objects..like the oversize 'siput babi' <--i don't know what they call it in english and abandoned jet ski~..whatever we found or see the thing that matters is we had a very great time there.

Gloomy days~

2008-12-06T08:32:00.000+08:00

My past few days isn't very good..just like everything turned dark and black. Thanks to Allah i still have my family and friends to support me. I pray for my good future, i pray for strength so that i can walk through everything..

Our Lord! Impose not on us that which we have not the strength to bear, grant us forgiveness and have mercy on us. You are our Protector. Help us against those who deny the truth. (2:286)

Brussels' Flowercarpet

2008-11-24T21:30:00.000+08:00

I just knew this event from my virtual friend, Youssef . He live in Belgium and he had captured a very beautiful images from this flower carpet. It is made by thousands of flowers with rolled turf. Surprisingly colorful and attractive Subhanallah.

Some brief info about flower carpet ( check the details here -> http://www.flowercarpet.be/site/main.php?lg=en) :

1. The whole idea comes from the Landscape architect named E. Stautemans in 1971.
2. They're using Begonia flower as the main component because of its qualities (robustness, resistance to bad weather, long live and freshness, rich range of colors which reflect the light so well).

Just search over the internet and you'll get the information about this lovely festival. Thank you brother Youssef for sharing this with me..

Me and Ensem for Today

2008-11-24T00:03:00.000+08:00

I've added new diet for Ensem, Wawa, Buu and Tam tam. Usually i gave them carrot and Chinese veggies for additional food. But last week the owner of pet shop suggest me to give them this dried alfalfa. Guess what, they like it so much and did'nt even want to have their rabbit pallet anymore.

Adoi..this make me worried so Ummi suggest not to let them have to much dried alfalfa(dried alfalfa is more expensive compare to their pallet) only sometime whenever we think they should have it. Slowly they start to eat they rabbit pallet (because there is no other choice). Below is my pic captured when Ensem eating dried alfalfa..

Hadith 16 - La Taghdab

2008-11-23T19:44:00.000+08:00

Here one of the hadith from forty hadith Imam Nawawi. It is about controlling your anger.

Abu Hurairah, radiyallahu 'anhu, reported that a man said to the Prophet, sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam:

"Advise me! "The Prophet said, "Do not become angry and furious." The man asked (the same) again and again, and the Prophet said in each case, "Do not become angry and furious."

[Al-Bukhari; Vol. 8 No. 137]

This is a hadith (text from fortyhadith.com) that shows how important for us, muslims to control our anger..i want to post this because this will also be my reminder(somehow i do have problems with anger). We should not act based on anger or while being angry(which sometimes i failed). So hopefully this hadith will be a usefull for all of us.

If i had a baby boy..what his name would be?

2008-11-23T14:57:00.000+08:00

Aha..last time i was thinking about girls name..and now the time for boys name. Here a few of names..

Muslim (One who submits to Allah) i like this name the most..hope that i will be given a chance to have my own babies..
Aasim (Person who keeps away from sins)
Afzal (Best, top most)
Aqeel (Wise, intelligent)

I just keep wondering when the special moment will be..?? hmmmm.. never mind

Du'a Tilawah

2008-11-22T14:33:00.000+08:00

This song is about du'a tilawah..(the du'a that we read after reciting Al-Quran). It is performed by a Malaysian nasheed group : Raihan.

Istikhara for Marriage

2008-11-22T01:18:00.000+08:00

Again i found a very good website about everyday du'a for muslims..

(http://www.guidedways.com/duas/prophetprayers.php?dua=99).

I want to highlight this du'a..a very important du'a especially for muslims that already thinking about getting married. The best way is to refer to Allah and ask Him for His guidance..

When one desires to make istikhara for marriage, then keep the person in mind when making niyah. Then do wudhu and perform Salaat. Then praise Allah, mention His Greatness and plead:

اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُالْغُيُوبِ ، فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَ أَنَّ فِي فُلَانَةِ خَيْرَاً لِي فِي دِينِي وَدُنْيَايَ وَآخِرَتِي فَاقْدُرْهَا لِي وَإِنْ كَانَ غَيْرُهَا خَيْرٌ مِنْهَا لِي فِي دِينِي وَآخِرَتِي فَاقْدُرْهَا لِي

"O Allah, You have power (control) and I have no control and You know and I do not know, and You know the condition of the Unseen. Thus if You see (deem fit) that this woman (here mention her name) is good for me concerning my Deen, world and Akhirah then grant me her control (make it possible that I marry her) and if besides her there be (another woman) which is better for me concerning Deen and Akhirah then specify her for me (grant me control over he)".

(Hisn)

N.B. A woman should read "him" instead of "her".

2008-11-18T19:39:00.000+08:00

Well, i bring Ensem to met A Vet today. Ensem had a problem with his mouth and it worries me. So this is my first time meeting a vet... Nothing serious about Ensem. He just suspected to have a food poisoning so the vet just gave him an injection of pain killer and a bottle of multivitamin. Anyhow they said that Ensem is doing fine..he's healthy Alhamdulillah. So i just need to wait till he got better. I LOVE him so MUCH so does everyone else in my family..so i prayed please dont take my precious Ensem away from me..i couldnt afford it (especially at this moment)..

*somehow i feel like i am slowly turning into a mother (insyaAllah i will be a real mother in the future..ameen)

Title: Circle of Life

I made this last year..it is about green(environment) and life within it. Butterfly symbolize living creature and the curvy circle with marble green means life. Both of this element should blend (symbiosis, etc <-- i am not a scientist to explain further on this) together to make a sustainable environment. Somehow i want to deliver a message on the importance of our green area..

Title: 247

This occurred when i am in a very depressing situation early of this year.. so i snap on a few images and do some editing. So this is part of the product...

Title: 'NOT SURE'

Seriously..am not sure about this and why i made it. But obviously it show how confused i am during that time.

Reminder: This is just an amateur attempt..nothing to be serious about. But if u like it u can keep it, copyrighted from me though. I just hope i could do much more on poster editing, maybe soon ('',)

Introducing..

2008-11-02T20:05:00.000+08:00

Surprise surprise! Zubair(my brother) bought a female baby rabbit today. So now Ensem had a company. We named it with Wawa (comes from word 'lawa' means beautiful in english). Things getting tough because we now have 2 naughty rabbits to be taken care of. Actually Wawa more active than Ensem. Maybe because she's still a baby and she's a female rabbit. Naturally female animals are more active than male . So i snap on a few pics of them..they can get along pretty well. Good for us..means we dont have to provide another cage for each one of them hehe :D

This is Wawa..at 1st Zubair named her as Tompok (spot in english) but then ummi changed it to Wawa..to make it sound more feminine since Wawa is a girl.

Ensem washing his mouth..this is the cutest part of him..comeynyeee

Ensem and Wawa having dinner (i don't know the veggies name) but seems they both share the same taste in food. They look nice together..You can see the hands and it belongs to Aiman(my little brother).

This is our Ensem

2008-11-02T16:36:00.000+08:00

Tada! This is my Ensem..cute isn't he?

Naughty Ensem

2008-11-02T11:14:00.000+08:00

Today is the 3rd day we live with Ensem..well Ensem still a boy but i didn't expect him to be so naughty.He is just too cute to get angry with. If he's out of his cage..he will hopping everywhere and leave his droppings along. Well rabbit is a very clean animals so am not worried by that. The thing is when he start to leave his urine outside of his cage.

From article about rabbits care..they said that rabbits is a very intelligent animals. So they're easy to train.. Here some of instructions that i got from the website How To Do Just About Everything. Am on my way on training Ensem hoping he could be a better rabbit(long live Ensem..we LOVE u!))

How to Train Your Rabbit

By eHow Pets Editor

Rabbits are incredibly intelligent creatures. Many teach themselves to use a litter box; others need a bit of guidance. Most rabbits learn after just a short period of repetition to understand certain words, phrases, or commands. Don't expect them to obey you every time, however, because their intelligence also propels them to make their own decisions. Many's the time I've felt I could see them considering a decision only to reject it. Rabbits are fiercely independent creatures.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Step1

Always use positive feedback; praise your rabbit. Do not criticize, scold, or hit; this will only serve to alienate your rabbit.

Step2

Speak softly and gently to your rabbit to induce him to listen to you.

Step3

Use repetition. For example, when you want to litter box train your rabbit, you might say the following while letting the rabbit smell the contents of the litter box: 'Do pebbles, Smokey. Do pebbles.' Or 'Do puddle, Smokey. Do puddle.'

Step4

Don't force your rabbit to do something. Just guide him and let him go, if he resists or tries to hop away.

Step5

Spend at least an hour or two each day for one or two weeks working on the new behavior with your rabbit.

Step6

Remember that rabbits are rabbits. They are not cats or dogs or any other animal, so they will not act like any other animal. They will only manifest rabbit behavior.

Whats cookin..?

2008-11-01T19:19:00.000+08:00

Prawn..me and my auntie (i called her MOKCIK, using Kuala Kangsar accent) had discussed about whats good for cooking prawn. She told me that butter prawn(a famous cuisien since late 90's) taste good. The thing is i never try this dish and i didnt know the recipe either..

So on the next day i took an efford to surf the web for a recipe of butter prawn. I wish i could try it at home on weekend. But since i've bought Ensem..i couldnt spend much time on preparing the ingredients. Am sorry mokcik for disappointing you. But i promise i'll try the recipe next time and i will cook it specially for you ok :D

This are the recipe for butter prawns:

Ingredients

1 lb large prawns
Oil for deep frying
3 tablespoons butter
6 bird's eye chilies (chopped)
3 sprigs of curry leaves (use only the leaves)
3 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
6 tablespoons of grated coconut (dry fried until golden brown)

Leave the prawn heads and shells on but chop off the eyes part. Slit down the back to remove the veins. Pat dry. Heat oil and deep fry the prawns. Drain and set aside.

Melt the butter, add bird's eye chilies, curry leaves, garlic, salt and fry for 2 minutes or until fragrant. Add prawns, sugar, soy sauce, wine, and grated coconut. Cook over high heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently. Serve immediately.

Open House at End of Syawal

2008-11-01T19:09:00.000+08:00

Last Saturday i've made an appointment with ENT specialist. We go to Darul Ehsan Medical Centre (DEMC) at section 9 Shah Alam. Both of my parents plus my little sister anah a.k.a tepet are with me that day. Abah had a few open house invitation on the same day so i had to follow him since am with them from the beginning.

The 1st house located at section 10 Shah Alam..a friend of abah which his daughter appear to be anah's best friend. Theres a lot of special menu. One of them is Roast Lamb..which happend to be my favourite dish. Well actually One of my favourite.

The 2nd house located at section 11, a very large house. Bungalow lot. The food not as fancy as the 1st house but it still have its own specialities. Now only our stomach already full we couldnt eat much.

The 3rd house placed far away to Kuala Selangor. This is very special friend of abah and ummi because they've known each other since 1984, in sunderland, UK. I cant remember the makcik but she remember me very well. This because of the eldest in my family. So we spent most of the evening here..it is like a family reunion to both of my parents and the host..

I am having a great time plus good food. Can't wait for the next eid..hoping the next eid will be more meaningfull with the person i love ;>

For the time being..am happy with my family.

A Rabbit?

2008-11-01T01:30:00.000+08:00

Well actually i just bought my rabbit after worked on Friday. I've already watched the rabbits from the pet shop everyday before. This is because i got to past that pet shop before i could go to the grocery shop which is located just after this pet shop. The uncle(a Chinese old man) of the shop put the rabbits outside. And i will play with them everyday until i decided last month to own one of those rabbits.

I asked (via sms n calls) everyone including ummi, my sister DEB, Tepet and my little brother aiman and they all agreed except ummi. She wants me to take the full responsibilities and she does not want to get involved. But i just couldnt hold myself..and then when i realise i already bought a RABBIT..omg this creature they're just too cute to let go. MashaAllah..

His name is ENSEM which is originally from an english word HANDSOME means very good looking. So here i am now with ensem as well as other pets, Man(toman-a fish), OOen(cat) and a very fury lobster that doesnt have any name.

I'll put the picture of him next time for everyone to see..i pray to Allah that my Ensem always be in a healthy condition as well as our other pets..

Its been a while..

2008-10-27T12:50:00.001+08:00

i haven't write in here for a few months..though there is a lot of things happens to me. i just couldn't find a right time to start writing. all that working stuff drain my energy out..so i was hoping i can start to share again soon.

Work, the Beginning

2008-08-08T16:36:00.000+08:00

Work and working.. am into another phase of life after the educational phase. Which i always imagine, challenging and risky. So how am going to survive? I will not know until i try. So i pray to Allah to help me and guide me to get through this 'road of life'.

I remember something from the web about work that i read recently.. It's about the concept of work in Islam, that in Islam work is given special importance to the extend that it is as an act of worship in itself. Because Islam is a religion of worshiping the creator, with an essential part of that worship being working for survival. Allah tells us in the Quran to traverse the universe and make use of all the abundant resources that have been created for us.

Then the quran directs a message to humanity that it should contribute positively to the earth, that is, it should work to make use of what is created for its benefit:

[ That man can have nothing but what he strives for; That (the fruit of) his striving will soon come in sight: Then will he be rewarded with a reward complete. ]
(An-Najm 53:39-41)

One more thing about the concept of work in Islam that Islam orders its followers to be part and parcel of a working and productive society. The Qur’an says what means:

[and help one another in goodness and piety, and do not help one another in sin and aggression; and be careful of (your duty to) Allah.]
(Al-Ma’idah 5:2)

This tells us that we need to strike balance between worship and work and also not to forget our responsibilities to the society (means our Ummah). This remind us a lot of things that we used to forgot. We only thing work is for ourselves while the truth it is not. Working is about everything in Islam. So let's work everyone..

Importance of name in Islam

2008-08-06T19:51:00.000+08:00

Something to share..especially to all Muslims parents will be and all Muslims parents wannabe. About the importance of giving a good name with a good meaning for your children. Living in the world of different norms and culture will also contribute to the naming of the child. And some of us thinks that name shows nothing for their babies, what is important is how they broad the child's up, the environment, the education and etc. The truth is, the name DOES matter..inline with other needs as stated before.

As for a reminder (this include myself)..It is reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:

"On the Day of Resurrection, you will be called by your names and by your fathers' names, so give yourselves good names."

(Hadith Abu Dawud)

Remember, just because a name stems from a certain language or culture, doesn't mean that it has a good Islamic meaning. The Hadith also prove the importance of name for Muslims babies. Several of the companions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) changed their own Arabic names, because the meanings of their names connoted wickedness. For example, someone named Harb ("war") had his name changed to Silm ("peace"), and one named Al-Munba'ith ("one who lies") became Al-Mudtaji' ("one who stands up," i.e. for the truth).

Here is some of the good name that keep coming on my mind, i am thinking about giving it to my future child(its a girl's name though..later for boys).

Awatif means Emotions
Widad/Widaad means Love, Friendship
Nahwan (but i couldn't remember the meaning of it)

So, let's give our child a good Islamic name.

As for the beginning

2008-08-06T14:08:00.000+08:00

This is a poems that i found from a website called i luv islam.com. Its about friendship and in bahasa melayu. Maybe next time i will write my own poems.

" Sesekali jadilah kawan yang
mendengar dari yang hanya bercerita,
ambillah masa untuk
memahami hati dan perasaan
kawan,
kerana dia juga seorang manusia,
dia juga ada rasa takut,
ada rasa bimbang,
sedih dan kecewa,
dia juga ada kelemahan dan dia juga perlukan kawan
sebagai kekuatan,
jadilah kita kawannya itu,
kita selalu melihatnya ketawa,
tetapi mungkin sebenarnya
dia tidak setabah yang kita sangka.
disebalik senyumannya itu,
banyak cerita sedih yang ingin diluahkan,
disebalik ketenangannya mungkin tersimpan seribu
kekalutan,
kita tidak tahu....tetapi
jika kita cuba jadi sahabat seperti dia
mungkin kita akan tahu. "
