post-thierry henry

assalamualaikum.

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.

It's a huge mistake to let Henry go. Arsenal fans hate this, non-Arsenal fans also hate this. It's NO fun watching EPL with Henry playing in Barca. I respect his decision, hopefully all of us do. Unfortunately the media is giving him bad impression. Only a fraction was taken out from his full interview. I suppose Cesc Fabregas was right when he said IT'S DIFFICULT TO SAY NO TO BARCA. Barca is one of few many teams I like, but his imminent transfer makes me think is Barca going to be a super-attractive football team to watch now. Ronaldinho-Eto'O-Henry-Messi-Deco-Xavi and list goes on, as if it never ends. Real Madrid has shown this policy never worked for them. I doubt it will work for Barca.


I loathe this transfer. As much as i hated Arsenal, it's only because they were playing really good football. Chelsea, MU and of course Liverpool can never play as good as Arsenal. Henry has made football a wonderful game and obviously a huge contributor to the great Arsenal team. MU celebrated when they put a stop to Arsenal unbeaten 49 matches, but for what they celebrated? 1 match u beat Arsenal is not the same as being unbeaten in 49 matches. Yes Arsenal never always get the right results, but we cant forget football despite its competitiveness, it's also an entertainment. Otherwise, Joga Bonito wouldnt be created dont u think?


Do u know that Henry has always likened himself to Allen Iverson? n Henry himself is a good basketball player? impressive.


another wonderful Henry's video.

chow dulu.till next time.
jangan lupa Solat okes?

assalamualaikum..

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

It's wonderful to see Beckham leaving Madrid with a medal. One truely amazing fact is Becks rediscovered his top form only after he was dropped out from the England national team. Sometimes I wonder if i need a slap in the face to wake me up. Becks's hunger drove him back to what he was before - hardworking, intelligent, team player and marvellous vision. I need that kind of hunger or desire that will take me to a greater height. I hate settling down on the same level every time. I want to taste success at the highest level so that should I fall down I wont be the lowest point. Come on ppl, give me some courage. I need it.

Im attached to Obs n Gynaecology ward for 6 weeks starting 3 weeks ago. That explains why I have been grumpy a bit lately.


An interesting point here. Looking back at recent Father's and Mother's day, I have seen two similar events that gets me thinking. I have had the chance to observe few labors or deliveries. Women should be grateful that they are born women. Honestly, I dont know but I can feel delivery is a painful process. It might take 2 days sometimes to give birth, though normally as fast as 1 hour. 1/3 of the population here need painkillers to reduce the pain. It amazes me how strong women are that they survive the whole process here. The whole ward can hear they screaming sometimes seriously. Right after after a baby is born, the sweating and intense moments are gone. The mother is smiling. I've seen twice and I can't help but to smile too. It makes me happy to see them so happy. You just dont feel tired anymore. Mother's Day is not a merely remembrance, it is made for you to appreciate your mother. A touching saying- You dont know what you've got till it's gone.

Father - they deserve no less than the level the mother gets. Nothing less. U wont be where you are if not because of them.



this is a beautiful Quran recitation by Sheikh Rahman Sudais(imam masjidil haram).It comes with translation as well. No regret watching I can promise you.

this is the link to latest Dr Asri's videos at youtube. 149 videos so far and the number is increasing. It's interesting to see al-ahkam has received close to 9 million visitors. Keep up the good work!

stresso~~

assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful.

somebody take me home(malaysia) please. Stress nye.. bole gak layan teh ais + main futsal ke kalo kat msia kan? Im not myself at this moment. I didnt set the mentality right before starting this run. I predicted this was going to be super boring, but that doesnt seem to be the case. Lately, im no less like a dead zombie, getting up early in the morning, doing my stuff and come back home. I need to enjoy my academic, otherwise the next 4 weeks will be wasted.

I'm done with one 30-min presentation. One down, 2 more to go. By far it wasnt the easiest topic. Still i reckon I learned a lot(trying to be positive here).

Right in front of me is a key chain that was given to me on my birthday last year. It has my name and its meaning of written on it. Just in case if anyone wonders what my name means, it is

Azri - Bererti keKUATanku atau PENYOKONGku.
Below it, it's written - daya tumpuan yang tajam. Berupaya menilai kebolehan seseorang. Memiliki kekuatan diri yang tinggi dan pandai mendorong sendiri.tidak perlu dimotivasikan.

it's wonderful ey? whoever made this key chain, it's nice. The meaning of my name is correct. well, I honestly dont believe in horoscope-like things, although sometimes u think they are true. They seem to hit the right spot at times, which is purely coincidental. Tidak perlu dimotivasikan? Nabi pun mintak doa ngan Allah, mau nye kita bole hidup xde motivasi?


these pictures were taken last year, in Coromandel, famous for their famous amos.not! u can find a very beautiful beach here, and the view here is exceptionally amazing. I dont think we were childish in building fortress here.We had fun and we had our reason in doing so,didnt we?


okla.
nak prepare sket utk kelas esok.

post-gathering

assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

this is my 51st entry as I speak here.

Let me start with by wishing Good Luck to friends who will sit for exams soon. Effort + tawakal has been the equation of success for thousands of years. Some have started studying few weeks ago, some havent started to touch their books. Either way does not guarantee good results, however it is the latter that almost always the reason when things do not go the way as u planned. Everyone knows this and I am no different, ironically I never seem to learn from this. why la?


I'd also like to waste no time to congratulate the organisers who organised the Solat Hajat tonight. It's one of the rare occasions that saw more than half Malay Muslims gathered in Surau for one reason. To those who doesnt know, Solat Hajat is a prayer performed when one has a special request or hajat. Whether Solat Hajat is a bidaah/invention when it is done in congregation(jemaah), I absolutely have no idea. I shall let u know when I have the answers. However i need to address something, when it comes to the doa(right after the prayer), it's not neccesary for the jemaah to 'amin' it. Firstly, we normally do not share the same request with the imam. Secondly, most of the us do not understand the meaning of those Arabic verses, so why 'amin' those things that u dont understand. Thirdly, it's not always true but sometimes the Imams themselves do not understand what he recites.

By no means it's a definite no to 'amin' doa. Doa is ur request(s). Ur request may not be the same as ur friend's. Should any of us including me, have free time, try to spare some time in learning Sifat Solat Rasulullah. You would be suprised some practises we do are not the same as what Rasullulah has taught.

On the other side, I'm not condemning, but we always tend to be closer to Allah when we have exams, when somebody dies. Dont get me wrong,I'm glad to see we gathered today. Hmmm....most of these faces are not there when other things are organised. again, why la? what makes today so special that everyone thought they ought to be there? Instead of further criticising, I would like to urge my frens here to come together for other events. We have Quran(not yassin) recitation on Friday night(bkn malam jumaat). Alhamdulillah we always manage to get more than 20 students coming every friday.tapi kan the more the merrier org kata.

Lina Joy's case was finally settled few days ago. She didnt seem to be 'Joy'ful with that decision. While many celebrated the decision, the decision didnt go to well with non-Muslims. I intend not to be outspoken on this matter. One point I'd like to make here, we have to look at the bigger picture here. The issue on her wasnt only to get her religion status changed on MyKad. Should the decision went their way, it's a loss to the Bumis since it will only open the already ajar door on apostasy. Let me stop talking about this issue here. If any of u find it too sensitive, let me know. I'll delete it. Dr. Asri has written regarding to this matter at Utusan(Murtad - Antara Emosi dan Realiti).

at the top of this entry is a picture taken in IMU. Terawih in 2005 kot. lama gile aa..

for football fans, it's fantastic to see David Beckham playing again isnt it? He's a good footballer whether u agree or not. He must be, otherwise Sir Alex wouldnt have picked him in the shirt of Red Devils right. Just like Mat Saleh says Sex Sells, in this case Beckham sells. On and off pitch he seldom disappoints us. Workrate 9/10, crossing 12/10, team spirit 10/10. gile respect aa? tp x se-best Gerrard kan. MOTM for Brazil vs England.

Gerrard - always the man. nasib la x join chelsea ari tu.

sambung nanti plak.

pagi jumaat

assalamualaikum....

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

surah An-Naml ayat 3-5

3. (yaitu) orang-orang yang mendirikan sembahyang dan menunaikan zakat dan mereka yakin akan adanya negeri akhirat.

4. Sesungguhnya orang-orang yang tidak beriman kepada negeri akhirat, Kami jadikan mereka memandang indah perbuatan-perbuatan mereka, maka mereka bergelimang (dalam kesesatan).

5. Mereka itulah orang-orang yang mendapat (di dunia) azab yang buruk dan mereka di akhirat adalah orang-orang yang paling merugi.

ayat 19. 19. maka dia tersenyum dengan tertawa karena (mendengar) perkataan semut itu. Dan dia berdoa: "Ya Tuhanku berilah aku ilham untuk tetap mensyukuri nikmat Mu yang telah Engkau anugerahkan kepadaku dan kepada dua orang ibu bapakku dan untuk mengerjakan amal saleh yang Engkau ridhai; dan masukkanlah aku dengan rahmat-Mu ke dalam golongan hamba-hamba-Mu yang saleh."


Quote of the day

taken from SaifulIslam.com,
1. Semua orang bercakap tentang remaja. 90% berbincang tentang produk yang ingin dijual kepada remaja. Hanya 10% sahaja yang berminat untuk berbincang bagaimana menyelamatkan remaja. Dan dari 10% itu, hanya segelintir yang memindahkan perbincangan kepada agenda. Moga kita termasuk di dalam segelintir yang kecil itu!

on a lighter note, congratulations to Meso on ur engagement!gile aa..sampai hajat hang eh.smoga jodoh berpanjangan.

till next time.I would like to review Lina Joy's case.tp tgk la camna.

assalamualaikum
