Satan called a worldwide convention of demons.

In his opening address he said,

“We can’t keep Muslims from going to mosque.”
“We can’t keep them from reading their Quran & knowing the truth.”
“We can’t even keep them from an intimate relationship with their Allah & his messenger Muhammad (pbuh).”
Once they gain that connection with Allah, our power over them is broken.”
So let them go to their Mosques; let them have their covered dish dinners, BUT steal their time, so they don’t have time to develop a relationship with Allah & his messenger Muhammad (pbuh).”

“This is what I want you to do,” said the devil:

“Distract them from gaining hold of their Allah and maintaining that vital connection throughout their day!”

“How shall we do this?” his demons shouted.

“Keep them busy in the non-essentials of life & invent innumerable schemes
To occupy their minds,” he answered.
“Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, & borrow, borrow, borrow.”
“Persuade the wives to go to work for long hours & the husbands to work 6-7 days each week, 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their empty lifestyles.”
“Keep them from spending time with their children.”
“As their families fragment, soon, their homes will offer no escape from the pressure of work!”
“Over-stimulate their minds so that they cannot hear that still, small voice.”
“Entice them to play the radio or cassette player whenever they drive.” “To keep the TV, VCR, CDs & their PCs going constantly in their home and see to it that every store & restaurant in the world plays music constantly.”
“This will jam their minds & break that union with Allah & his Messenger (pbuh).”
“Fill the coffee tables with magazines & newspapers.”
“Pound their minds with the news 24 hours a day.”
“Invade their driving moments with billboards.”
“Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, mail order catalogues, sweepstakes, &every kind of newsletter & promotional offering free products, services & false hopes.”
“Keep skinny, beautiful models on the magazines & TV so their husbands will believe that outward beauty is what’s important, & they’ll become dissatisfied with their wives.”
“Keep the wives too tired to love their husbands at night.”
Give them headaches too!
“If they don’t give their husbands the love they need, they will begin to look elsewhere.”
“That will fragment their families quickly!”
“Give them story books to distract them from teaching children the real meaning of Salat.”
“Keep them too busy to go out in nature and reflect on Allah’s creation. Send them to amusement parks, sporting events, plays, concerts & movies instead. “Keep them busy, busy, busy!”
“And when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in gossip & small talk so that they leave with troubled consciences.”
“Crowd their lives with so many good causes they have no time to seek power from Allah.”
Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their health & family for the good of the cause.”

“It will work!” “It will work!”
It was quite a plan!

The demons went eagerly to their assignments causing Muslims everywhere to get busier & more rushed, going here & there.
Having little time for their Allah or their families.
Having no time to tell others about the power of Allah & his messenger Muhammad to change lives.
I guess the question is, has the devil been successful in his schemes?

YOU BE THE JUDGE!!!!

Does BUSY MEAN:
B-EING
U-NDER
S-ATAN’s
Y- OKE?


All praises and thanks be to Allah, Lord of everything that exists.The most Gracious, the Most Merciful.Master of the Day of Judgment You (alone) we worship, and You (alone) we ask for help.Guide us to the Straight Way The Way of of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger, nor those who went astray.

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY AND ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY ..

[Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins ]


1.. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.

3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.

6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.

7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.

8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.

9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.


Mouth Cancer

10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.

11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply.




WHAT CANCER CELLS FEED ON:

a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal,Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.

b.. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soy milk, cancer cells are being starved.


Thyroid

c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.


Stomach cancer

d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes t o nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells.

To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).

e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water--best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.

12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.

13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.




14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.

15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor.

Anger, unforgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.

16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

Hina orang lain seperti caci diri sendiri

RASULULLAH SAW bersabda yang maksudnya: “Sesiapa yang menolak kata-kata buruk terhadap kehormatan diri saudaranya, nescaya Allah menolak api neraka daripada mengenainya pada hari kiamat.” (Hadis riwayat Ahmad dan Tirmizi)

Melakukan perbuatan seperti memperli, memperolok-olok, mengejek, menghina, memperleceh, memperlekeh kemampuan orang lain, memanggil orang lain dengan gelaran yang tidak baik, memalukan orang, menyatakan kekurangan orang secara terang-terangan kepada orang lain dan sebagainya adalah perbuatan yang sangat dilarang oleh Allah.

Sesiapa yang mencaci orang lain dengan perkataan-perkataan yang buruk seumpama dia mencaci dirinya sendiri.

Sebaik-baiknya sebagai umat Islam kita hendaklah hidup saling hormat-menghormati, bantu-membantu dan tolong-menolong tanpa mengira agama dan keturunan orang yang ingin dibantu.

Justeru, apabila mendengar celaan, kita sepatutnya bertindak menyembunyikan keburukan itu sekalipun seseorang yang dicela memang melakukan dosa yang mengaibkan kerana kemungkinan orang itu sudah bertaubat dan taubatnya diterima oleh Allah.

Sesungguhnya sesiapa yang berbuat demikian ganjarannya adalah amat besar di akhirat kelak.

To work or study !

Salam,

Correct me if I am wrong, career guidance during our school days are not abundant as at present. Most rely on info from word of mouth of your peer, our teachers yes they did give some advise, but the rest is up to you to dig from other sources. But the irony of it is what you uttered spontaneously as your choice or field of interest to further your studies is the one that materialises. Trust your first instinct ?

Some opted not to continue their studies, instead start looking for jobs immediately. It depends on one's priority during that time. Nearly landed myself a job too. Otherwise it could've been the retired .............in the Police Force. ha..ha..ha...

Allah knows better.

SMC berape ?

Of Coconut Trees and Weddings

We often attend wedding invitations of our friends or relatives. Ever noticed the diferences between the present and yester years ? yes ! privatisation vs gotong royong [gr]...(cooperative method) of wedding celebrations.

The choice of method is related to various factors for example : financial status, space availability, the community in situ, among others.

Let's preview briefly the gotong royong method of holding wedding ceremonies.

The young and the energetics would perform the hardcore jobs like establishing make shift tents(bangsal), cooking avenues, including preparing the coconut milk in large quantities using the traditional method (back then we don't have any coconut grinder yet) using the coconut scraper (kukur kelapa) that is being kept in every household. As kids, some would ride at the back of their mom on this scraper thinking of going someplaces on horseback...!!

The elderly would combine all their resourceful talents into practice like who will cook, who will prepare the raw materials, who will do the washing, etc.

Plucking the coconut from 'Malayan Tall' variety is a highly skilled job. In those days, you can always call the official 'coconut climbers'. They have special knives if you could remember. Dominated by one ethnic, no point mentioning. No wonder the price of coconut is going up and down.....pay him to climb up, and come down.

That's one method, the other one is by using monkeys (the bigger one - pig-tailed monkey and in Malay called beruk). This profession is dominated by another ethnicity...? This you've got to be carefull, you know these monkeys have their off days too...and if you are the owner of the monkey make sure it rides in front of the bicycle, not at the back.

If your name is (xxx) and the monkey sits in front of your bicycle, they will call 'beruk (xxx)', if sitting at the back, then you had it...they call you '(xxx) beruk'....and if you have one in front and one at the back, then it will be 'beruk (xxx) beruk'... the option is yours..( I'm not putting any name here, choose your own).

Remove Class/Foundation Class to CSKK

Nothing much can be extracted from the primary school years. Since the Special Malay Class is in English Medium, you need to repeat year 4 again , losing a year there. Time is lost to travelling to and fro from your house to school. Once the school had an afternoon session, but not for long. You see..some need to travel 1o miles per trip x 2 that will be 20 miles daily, and the school bus.....oh sometimes stranded on the way.

The other option is to travel via the normal bus, walking approximately one mile to reach the station. Quite often we slipped in thro the broken fence of MCKK to take a short cut and 'happily' chased by the gardener....!! if I could retaliate then..

After completing std 6, then off to CSKK in 1965 until 1969, the arch rival of MCKK as what they had been telling, yes true to a certain extent.

Secondary school is where you begin to develop your character and formulate your ambition. Needless to say everything were stuffed into your throat including "treasure Island', 'Robinson Cruisoe' among others that contributes nothing to your character building as a Muslim !!

Some guys got lucky with the - all girl's school (GEGS) of Bukit Residen, managed to strike a few chords with them. Of course the girls preferred the MCKK guys. Some resort to a very unorthodox method of mass circulation of adresses, writing on pieces of papers and letting the winds doing their job, hoping to be picked up by someone.

Then came the School Certificate syndicated with MCE examination in 1969. Most were separated after this exam for as long as 30 years, until being reunited again by the effort of some classmates organizing a few gatherings. Thanks for the effort .

A few had gone.....Al Fatihah..
