Death

Lately, most blogs that I've read talked about death...to most of us death seems so far still....but its inevitable. Sooner or later we will meet our maker.

A friend sent this to me....send shivers down my spine and I was trying to remember if I've experienced any of the signs mentioned below..


Tanda 100 hari sebelum hari mati.
Ini adalah tanda pertama dari Allah SWT kepada hambanya dan hanya akan disedari oleh mereka yang dikehendakinya. Walaubagaimanapun semua orang Islam akan mendapat tanda ini cuma samada mereka sedar atau tidak sahaja.Tanda ini akan berlaku lazimnya selepas waktu Asar. Seluruh tubuh iaitu dari hujung rambut sehingga ke hujung kaki akan mengalami getaran atau seakan-akan mengigil. Contohnya seperti daging lembu yang baru saja disembelih dimana jika diperhatikan dengan teliti kita akan mendapati daging tersebut seakan-akan bergetar. Tanda ini rasanya lazat dan bagi mereka yang sedar dan berdetik di hati bahawa mungkin ini adalah tanda mati maka getaran ini akan berhenti dan hilang setelah kita sedar akan kehadiran tanda ini. Bagi mereka yang tidak diberi kesedaran atau mereka yang hanyut dengan kenikmatan tanpa memikirkan soal kematian, tanda ini akan lenyap begitu sahaja tanpa sebarang munafaat.Bagi yang sedar dengan kehadiran tanda ini maka ini adalah peluang terbaik untuk memunafaatkan masa yang ada untuk mempersiapkan diri dengan amalan dan urusan yang akan dibawa atau ditinggalkan sesudah mati.

Tanda 40 hari sebelum hari mati
Tanda ini juga akan berlaku sesudah waktu Asar. Bahagian pusat kita akan berdenyut-denyut. Pada ketika ini daun yang tertulis nama kita akan gugur dari pokok yang letaknya di atas Arash Allah SWT. Maka malaikat maut akan mengambil dauntersebut dan mula membuat persediaannya ke atas kita, antaranya ialah ia akan mula mengikuti kita sepanjang masa. Akan terjadi malaikat maut ini akan memperlihatkan wajahnya sekilas lalu dan jika ini terjadi, mereka yang terpilih ini akan merasakan seakan-akan bingung seketika. Adapun malaikat maut ini wujudnya cuma seorang tetapi kuasanya untuk mencabut nyawa adalah bersamaan dengan jumlah nyawa yang akan dicabutnya.

Tanda 7 hari
Adapun tanda ini akan diberikan hanya kepada mereka yang diuji dengan musibah kesakitan di mana orang sakit yang tidak makan secara tiba-tiba ianya berselera untuk makan.

Tanda 3 hari
Pada ketika ini akan terasa denyutan di bahagian tengah dahi kita iaitu diantara dahi kanan dan kiri. Jika tanda ini dapat dikesan maka berpuasalah kita selepas itu supaya perut kita tidak mengandungi banyak najis dan ini akan memudahkan urusan orang yang akan memandikan kita nanti. Ketika ini juga mata hitam kita tidak akan bersinar lagi dan bagi orang yang sakit hidungnya akan perlahan-lahan jatuh dan ini dapat dikesan jika kita melihatnya dari bahagian sisi. Telinganya akan layu dimana bahagian hujungnya akan beransur-ansur masuk ke dalam. Telapak kakinya yang terlunjur akan perlahan-lahan jatuh ke depan dan sukar ditegakkan.

Tanda 1 hari
Akan berlaku sesudah waktu Asar di mana kita akan merasakan satu denyutan di sebelah belakang iaitu di kaw! asan ubun-ubun di mana ini menandakan kita tidak akan sempat untuk menemui waktu Asar keesokan harinya. Tanda akhir akan berlaku keadaan di mana kita akan merasakan satu keadaan sejuk di bahagianpusat dan ianya akan turun ke pinggang dan seterusnya akan naik ke bahagian halkum. Ketika ini hendaklah kita terus mengucap kalimah syahadah dan berdiam diri dan menantikan kedatangan malaikatmaut untuk menjemput kita kembali kepada Allah SWT yang telah menghidupkan kita dan sekarang akan mematikan pula. Sesengguhnya mengingati mati itu adalah bijak.

The Guitar Man

This song just gets me everytime....

The Guitar Man - The Bread
Who draws the crowd and plays so loud,
Baby it’s the guitar man.
Who’s gonna steal the show, you know
Baby it’s the guitar man,

He can make you love, he can make you cry
He will bring you down, then he’ll get you high
Somethin’ keeps him goin’, miles and miles a day
To find another place to play.

Night after night who treats you right,
Baby it’s the guitar man
Who’s on the radio, you go listen
To the guitar man

Then he comes to town, and you see his face,
And you think you might like to take his place
Somethin’ keeps him driftin’ miles and miles away
Searchin’ for the songs to play.

Then you listen to the music and you like to sing along,
You want to get the meaning out of each and ev’ry song
Then you find yourself a message and some words to call your own
And take them home.

He can make you love, he can get you high
He will bring you down, then he’ll make you cry
Somethin’ keeps him movin’, but no one seems to know
What it is that makes him go.

Then the lights begin to flicker and the sound is getting dim
The voice begins to falter and the crowds are getting thin
But he never seems to notice he’s just got to find
Another place to play,
Anyway got to play, anyway got to play.

Tra la la

...it really is ok to not be RIGHT ALL THE TIME. It really is not the end of the world when someone does not agree with you/have a different school of thought than yours...

There's a difference between standing your ground and just being plain snooty..

I learn today that it is pointless talking to rude people...they just don't care

Hantu Jogging

This happened a couple of years back....

After some pool games and teh tarik, my friends 'Timah', 'Siew Lan' and I decided go home. It was almost 1 am and since I was so sleepy I decided to take the short cut (I was the driver). This short cut cuts through big old houses, a park and a chinese cemetary...

Was driving along the cemetary when Timah said "Eh here got hantu you know"

"Oy don't la say things like that...not NOW" I said

"Really la I heard oso...scary maa" Siew Lan added.

"Shaddap la...I'm driving and I'll be driving alone after I drop you guys off" *gripped steering harder*

"Yalah, I heard one aunty was killed by a lorry while jogging on the park (the park and the chinese cemetary were next to each other)" Timah said.

"Yalor...killed on the spot some more...eiiii takut"

"Ish mulut....korang ni diamla...you know what time is it now? And where we are now?" I reminded them that we were right smack in the middle of the cemetary...

When suddenly....

"Is that.....", said Timah pointing to a whitish figure running slowly by the road side.

We all looked....and looked harder and realised that the feet of the whitish figure (I assume its a ghost) that we were looking at were not touching the ground....at all.

Siew Lan started screaming followed by me and then Timah. And in the middle of the chaos, I let go of the clutch of my car too fast and the car died.....the whitish figure started to turn around and was heading towards the car. We all screamed harder. I don't remember much after. I froze. Timah slapped me a few times. I started the car back again and just stepped on the gas and drove like a maniac.

.....I don't take short cuts...not anymore.

Cheesy Wedges (the evil)

I was all prepared and ready to start my diet (trying low-carb pulak)

Than I discovered Cheesy Wedges...

...finish

Thoughts

You know what I miss the most'est'?

I miss reading....I really do. Used to read a book a week. I hardly have time to read the newspaper these days. Bought a few books the last couple of months and only managed to pick one up just long enough for me to read a page or two before I doze off...

......and I can't remember the last time I rode a bicycle. Gosh, the last time I rode one was probably 10 years ago....I'm not sure if I remember how to ride a bicycle...is it possible that we forget how?

And what one movie that you can watch over and over and over again....and again and again? I can watch "Breakfast at Tiffany" gazzilion times and still feel like watching it for the first time everytime...its an absolute girlish movie.

....swirling staircase, that's the state of my mind today..it goes up and up and up...not too sure where its heading..

Manners anyone?

The blogworld can be a very scary place. Its big and wide and without any boarder....and each and one of us is vulnerable and open to any form of disparagements...and mostly these disparagements are very cruel and spiteful.

I myself had experienced such predicament. To be blindly assaulted left, right and center...can get pretty ugly.

I have read many many blogs. I agree with some and disagree with some...and I find no reason for me to ridicule the author of the blogs who I do not share the same sentiment with...but I guess not to some people.

My point is...

We all have our own set of opinion..... It's ok to not be on the same page...it's ok to not be right all the time. Express your disagreement, nobody says you can't. But be mindful of other people's feelings. Be sensitive and polite. Won't hurt...

I don't understand the need to belittle others...

Play nice...

Sound trouble

I sound trouble...

HotPapa : B, I nak buat laundry.
Me : Belum, later later I mandi.
HotPapa : ??

Hot Papa also sound trouble...

Me : Have you seen my blue shoes?
HotPapa : News? Belum start lagi...

And sometimes this happened....

HotPapa : I love you B
Me : Mee? I thought you want to eat nasik goreng?
HotPapa : No, I said I love you (suara kuat sikit)
Me : Stew? Mana nak cari stew malam malam ni
HotPapa : Ya rabbii...no, I cakap I LOVE YOU!
Me : ?? Jangan la scream scream like that
HotPapa : Dah you sound trouble
Me : Okaaaayyyy I LOVE YOU TOO!

So, sometimes it's quite funny how my sister thinks that HotPapa and I are arguing when the fact is we are just talking to each other...heheheh
