Ugly Betty is Beautiful Betty




Ugly Betty is beautiful Betty. 
I love her personality, that's make her even beautiful. See people, if you're beautiful but your personality / attitude are ugly, you're ugly. If you're ugly but your personality / attitude are good, you're beautiful. If you're beautiful and your personality / attitude are good, that's make you even more beautiful. The worst thing is, if you're ugly but your personality / attitude are ugly too, that's make you uglier. So why choose to be bad? Change your ugly personality / attitude. Don't be so mean and rude. Be more polite, loving, kind and more respect. Put your dignity as a priority. Stop hating and stop envy toward other but be the best among the best (:

Ramadan 2012: Why we Fasting and Prayer for our Muslim brothers and sisters

السلام عليكم

https://www.facebook.com/al.zahraa.abdullah.mohamedali87
O you who believe, the fasts have been enjoined upon you as they were enjoined upon those before you, so that you may be God-fearing, (183) For days few in number. However, should any one of you be sick or on a journey, then (he should fast) a number of other days (equal to the missed ones); and those who have the strength, (still, they do not opt for fasting,) on them there is a fidyah (compensation), that is, the feeding of a poor person. 97 Then whoever does good voluntarily, that is better for him. 98 However, that you fast is better for you, if you only knew. (184) The month of Ramadan is the one in which the Qur’an was revealed 99 as guidance for mankind, and as clear signs that show the right way and distinguish between right and wrong. So those of you who witness the month must fast in it. But the one who is sick, or is on a journey (should fast) as much from other days (as he missed). Allah intends (to provide) ease for you and does not intend (to create) hardship for you. All this is so that you may complete the number (of fasts as prescribed) and proclaim the Takbir of Allah for having guided you, and (so) that you may be grateful. 100 (185)

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ كُتِبَ عَلَيۡڪُمُ ٱلصِّيَامُ كَمَا كُتِبَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِڪُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَّقُونَ (١٨٣)أَيَّامً۬ا مَّعۡدُودَٲتٍ۬‌ۚ فَمَن كَانَ مِنكُم مَّرِيضًا أَوۡ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ۬ فَعِدَّةٌ۬ مِّنۡ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ‌ۚ وَعَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يُطِيقُونَهُ ۥ فِدۡيَةٌ۬ طَعَامُ مِسۡكِينٍ۬‌ۖ فَمَن تَطَوَّعَ خَيۡرً۬ا فَهُوَ خَيۡرٌ۬ لَّهُ ۥ‌ۚ وَأَن تَصُومُواْ خَيۡرٌ۬ لَّڪُمۡ‌ۖ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ (١٨٤) شَہۡرُ رَمَضَانَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أُنزِلَ فِيهِ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانُ هُدً۬ى لِّلنَّاسِ وَبَيِّنَـٰتٍ۬ مِّنَ ٱلۡهُدَىٰ وَٱلۡفُرۡقَانِ‌ۚ فَمَن شَہِدَ مِنكُمُ ٱلشَّہۡرَ فَلۡيَصُمۡهُ‌ۖ وَمَن ڪَانَ مَرِيضًا أَوۡ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ۬ فَعِدَّةٌ۬ مِّنۡ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ‌ۗ يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ بِڪُمُ ٱلۡيُسۡرَ وَلَا يُرِيدُ بِڪُمُ ٱلۡعُسۡرَ وَلِتُڪۡمِلُواْ ٱلۡعِدَّةَ وَلِتُڪَبِّرُواْ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ مَا هَدَٮٰكُمۡ وَلَعَلَّڪُمۡ تَشۡكُرُونَ (١٨٥) 


Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Kamu diwajibkan berpuasa sebagaimana diwajibkan atas orang-orang yang dahulu daripada kamu, supaya kamu bertakwa. (183) (Puasa yang diwajibkan itu ialah) beberapa hari yang tertentu; maka sesiapa di antara kamu yang sakit atau dalam musafir, (bolehlah dia berbuka), kemudian wajiblah dia berpuasa sebanyak (hari yang dibuka) itu pada hari-hari yang lain; dan wajib atas orang-orang yang tidak terdaya berpuasa (kerana tua dan sebagainya) membayar fidyah iaitu memberi makan orang miskin. Maka sesiapa yang dengan sukarela memberikan (bayaran fidyah) lebih dari yang ditentukan itu, maka itu adalah suatu kebaikan baginya dan (walaupun demikian) berpuasa itu lebih baik bagi kamu (daripada memberi fidyah), kalau kamu mengetahui. (184) (Masa yang diwajibkan kamu berpuasa itu ialah) bulan Ramadan yang padanya diturunkan Al-Quran, menjadi petunjuk bagi sekalian manusia dan menjadi keterangan-keterangan yang menjelaskan petunjuk dan (menjelaskan) perbezaan antara yang benar dengan yang salah. Oleh itu, sesiapa dari antara kamu yang menyaksikan anak bulan Ramadan (atau mengetahuinya), maka hendaklah dia berpuasa bulan itu dan sesiapa yang sakit atau dalam musafir maka (bolehlah dia berbuka, kemudian wajiblah dia berpuasa) sebanyak hari yang ditinggalkan itu pada hari-hari yang lain. (Dengan ketetapan yang demikian itu) Allah menghendaki kamu beroleh kemudahan dan Dia tidak menghendaki kamu menanggung kesukaran dan juga supaya kamu cukupkan bilangan puasa (sebulan Ramadan) dan supaya kamu membesarkan Allah kerana mendapat petunjukNya dan supaya kamu bersyukur. (185)

Quran explorer: Surah Al-Maeda 5:116-117

بسم الله



وَإِذۡ قَالَ ٱللَّهُ يَـٰعِيسَى ٱبۡنَ مَرۡيَمَ ءَأَنتَ قُلۡتَ لِلنَّاسِ ٱتَّخِذُونِى وَأُمِّىَ إِلَـٰهَيۡنِ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ‌ۖ قَالَ سُبۡحَـٰنَكَ مَا يَكُونُ لِىٓ أَنۡ أَقُولَ مَا لَيۡسَ لِى بِحَقٍّ‌ۚ إِن كُنتُ قُلۡتُهُ ۥ فَقَدۡ عَلِمۡتَهُ ۥ‌ۚ تَعۡلَمُ مَا فِى نَفۡسِى وَلَآ أَعۡلَمُ مَا فِى نَفۡسِكَ‌ۚ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ عَلَّـٰمُ ٱلۡغُيُوبِ (١١٦) مَا قُلۡتُ لَهُمۡ إِلَّا مَآ أَمَرۡتَنِى بِهِۦۤ أَنِ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّى وَرَبَّكُمۡ‌ۚ وَكُنتُ عَلَيۡہِمۡ شَہِيدً۬ا مَّا دُمۡتُ فِيہِمۡ‌ۖ فَلَمَّا تَوَفَّيۡتَنِى كُنتَ أَنتَ ٱلرَّقِيبَ عَلَيۡہِمۡ‌ۚ وَأَنتَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىۡءٍ۬ شَہِيدٌ 

-----------------------------------------------------
And (remember) when Allâh will say (on the Day of Resurrection): "O 'Īsā (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Did you say unto men: 'Worship me and my mother as two gods besides Allâh?' " He will say: "Glory be to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner-self though I do not know what is in Yours, truly, You, only You, are the All-Knower of all that is hidden (and unseen). (116) "Never did I say to them aught except what You (Allâh) did command me to say: 'Worship Allâh, my Lord and your Lord.' And I was a witness over them while I dwelt amongst them, but when You took me up, You were the Watcher over them, and You are a Witness to all things. (This is a great admonition and warning to the Christians of the whole world). (117)


-----------------------------------------------------

Dan (ingatlah) ketika Allah berfirman: Wahai Isa Ibni Mariam! Engkaukah yang berkata kepada manusia: Jadikanlah daku dan ibuku dua tuhan selain dari Allah? Nabi Isa menjawab: Maha Suci Engkau (wahai Tuhan)! Tidaklah layak bagiku mengatakan sesuatu yang aku tidak berhak (mengatakannya). Jika aku ada mengatakannya, maka tentulah Engkau telah mengetahuinya. Engkau mengetahui apa yang ada pada diriku, sedang aku tidak mengetahui apa yang ada pada diriMu; kerana sesungguhnya Engkau jualah Yang Maha Mengetahui perkara-perkara yang ghaib. (116) Aku tidak mengatakan kepada mereka melainkan apa yang Engkau perintahkan kepadaku mengatakannya, iaitu: "Sembahlah kamu akan Allah, Tuhanku dan Tuhan kamu", dan adalah aku menjadi pengawas terhadap mereka (dengan membenarkan yang benar dan menyalahkan yang salah) selama aku berada dalam kalangan mereka; kemudian apabila Engkau sempurnakan tempohku, menjadilah Engkau sendiri yang mengawasi keadaan mereka dan Engkau jualah yang menjadi Saksi atas tiap-tiap sesuatu. (117)


-----------------------------------------------------


Dan [ingatlah] ketika Allah berfirman: "Hai ’Isa putera Maryam, adakah kamu mengatakan kepada manusia: "Jadikanlah aku dan ibuku dua orang tuhan selain Allah?" ’Isa menjawab: "Maha Suci Engkau, tidaklah patut bagiku mengatakan apa yang bukan hakku [mengatakannya]. Jika aku pernah mengatakannya maka tentulah Engkau telah mengetahuinya. Engkau mengetahui apa yang ada pada diriku dan aku tidak mengetahui apa yang ada pada diri Engkau. Sesungguhnya Engkau Maha Mengetahui perkara yang ghaib-ghaib". (116) Aku tidak pernah mengatakan kepada mereka kecuali apa yang Engkau perintahkan kepadaku [mengatakan]nya yaitu: "Sembahlah Allah, Tuhanku dan Tuhanmu", dan adalah aku menjadi saksi terhadap mereka, selama aku berada di antara mereka. Maka setelah Engkau wafatkan [angkat] aku, Engkau-lah yang mengawasi mereka. Dan Engkau adalah Maha Menyaksikan atas segala sesuatu. (117)


-----------------------------------------------------

Allah: Ey Meryem oğlu İsa! İnsanlara, "Beni ve anamı, Allah`tan başka iki tanrı bilin" diye sen mi dedin, buyurduğu zaman o, "Hâşâ! Seni tenzih ederim; hakkım olmayan şeyi söylemek bana yakışmaz. Hem ben söyleseydim sen onu şüphesiz bilirdin. Sen benim içimdekini bilirsin, halbuki ben senin zatında olanı bilmem. Gizlilikleri eksiksiz bilen yalnızca sensin. (116) Ben onlara, ancak bana emrettiğini söyledim: Benim de Rabbim, sizin de Rabbiniz olan Allah`a kulluk edin, dedim. İçlerinde bulunduğum müddetçe onlar üzerine kontrolcü idim. Beni vefat ettirince artık onlar üzerine gözetleyici yalnız sen oldun. Sen her şeyi hakkıyla görensin. (117)


-----------------------------------------------------

(Rappelle-leur) le moment où Allah dira(1): «Ô Jésus, fils de Marie, est-ce toi qui as dit aux gens: «Prenez-moi, ainsi que ma mère, pour deux divinités en dehors d’Allah?» Il dira: «Gloire et pureté à Toi! Il ne m’appartient pas de déclarer ce que je n’ai pas le droit de dire! Si je l’avais dit, Tu l’aurais su, certes. Tu sais ce qu’il y a en moi, et je ne sais pas ce qu’il y a en Toi. Tu es, en vérité, le grand connaisseur de tout ce qui est inconnu. (116) Je ne leur ai dit que ce que Tu m’avais commandé, (à savoir): «Adorez Allah, mon Seigneur et votre Seigneur». Et je fus témoin contre eux aussi longtemps que je fus parmi eux. Puis quand Tu m’as rappelé, c’est Toi qui fus leur observateur attentif. Et Tu es témoin de toute chose. (117)


-----------------------------------------------------

Y cuando Allah dijo: ¡Isa, hijo de Maryam! ¿Has dicho tú a los hombres: Tomadme a mi y a mi madre como dioses aparte de Allah?Dijo: ¡Gloria a Ti! No me pertenece decir aquello a lo que no tengo derecho! Si lo hubiera dicho, Tú ya lo sabrías. Tú sabes lo que hay en mí, pero yo no sé lo que hay en Ti.Es cierto que Tú eres el Conocedor de lo más recóndito. (116) Sólo les dije lo que me ordenaste: ¡Adorad a Allah, mi Señor y el vuestro! Y he sido testigo de ellos mientras permanecí en su compañía.Y cuando me llevaste a Ti, Tú eras Quien los observaba, Tú eres Testigo de todas las cosas. (117)

Quote and Saying for Muslimah, my sisters

 Image for display purpose only. I don't own any right of this image.

السلام عليكم


Some people saw me and ask me about what i wear "Why are you wearing that, isn’t it very 
hot?” I smile and answer: "The fires of hell are hotter.~By me:Fatima Al~zahraa' Abdullah 



God tells me to cover myself, to hide my beauty and to tell the world that I’m not here to please men with my body; I’m here to please God. God elevates the dignity of a woman’s body by commanding that it be respected and covered, shown only to the deserving – only to the man I marry.~By me:Fatima Al~zahraa' Abdullah 




Some people ask, "What kind of woman you wanna be?"

my 1st friend answer: I want to be successful woman.

my 2nd friend answer: I want to marry with a handsome and rich man!! my other friend answer: I want to be the most fashionable woman in the earth, i want to have my own shop and i want to be a very famous designer!! then... they looked at me, i smile, and answer "Insha'allah I want to be a good wife, a good mother, a good Muslim woman and i hope i will be more better than now. To be a good person. Helping other, become a good example to others. I want to be respectful woman who put her dignity as one of her priority."~By me:Fatima Al~zahraa' Abdullah 



I will show the world what's inside my heart and be loved for who I am (:~~By me:Fatima Al~zahraa' Abdullah 



"Woman who cover / protect their aurah (including neck, feet and hand) is the most beautiful and respectful woman at the same time". ~~By me:Fatima Al~zahraa' Abdullah 



The most wonderful thing ever happened in my life is, I got to marry the man of my dreams and converted to Islam. Alhamdulilah ♥~By me:~By me:Fatima Al~zahraa' Abdullah 


Dear sisters of Islam:

Wear your Hijab properly. Do not show your neck, your forearm, your figure / body shape, your feet or even a little hair or your front hair. Wear loose clothes that hide your body shape, wear socks to cover your feet, wear long sleeves / long gloves, wear inner neck to cover your neck, also wear something to cover your hair properly, wear a long Hijab to cover your chest and your back. Do not wear something tight or something that can see through. Share this to save our Muslim sisters! OR ignore this because you don't even care to cover your own awrah ( عورة)~~By me:Fatima Al~zahraa' Abdullah




 

My journey as a new Muslimah Part 1: #What's with the attitude?

Part 1: #What's with the attitude?#

السلام عليكم

My journey as a new Muslimah, this will be my 1st writing about my journey as a new Muslimah. Before i start, i would like everyone knows that, i'm writing this not to condemn anyone especially to all my dearest sisters. My intention is nothing but hoping that my story will be a good lesson to anyone out there or maybe a guidance to all the new Muslimah. I'm not a saint, not an angel, i'm just a human being created by Allah and if there's some part or point of my story hurt your feeling, i'm sorry for that but my story is not pointing to any of you but it's just my experience, feeling and thought that i want to share with some people who willing to read this with open heart and mine. I'm not a good writer or author, i'm not English expert, i'm not expert on anything but this is how my writing should be, simple, easy and with lot of mistake, but i'm willing to improve myself. 


Image for display purpose only. I don't own  any right of this image.


So here the story goes....


Once upon a time....oh wait, this is not a fairy tale! Ok back to basic. One fine day, I try to survey hijab/veil for the first time in my life with my husband and without any female Muslim friend (which I don't have any), so it's kinda hard for me. My husband is a Muslim, but even thou Muslim or not, we (women) never depend on them especially when it comes to female clothing and stuff. Maybe some of you might say "Oh my God, that's very easy one" "so 'kacang' lah wei, even my little sister know". 

So me and my Husband walk in to one shop then another, all the shops is selling Muslim / Muslimah clothing and some other stuff. Of course for the first time in my life buying all these, i feel lost. But before I even ask any of the promoter / seller (Muslimah) I notice they stare at me like i'm an alien or something, i feel very uncomfortable. So i just ignore, and ask one or two of them, how to wear this type of hijab / veil, what should i use to cover this and that, then all of them start to laugh. From what I looked, it's obvious that i'm not "malay" and new to Islam. Instead of helping me and answer me with a good manner, they laugh while replying me along sarcastic and rude attitude. Not only one shop, ALL the shop that i walked in. There's only 1 shop that didn't do that to me, it's a old lady but mostly her shop selling for adult muslimah. Some people just judging me, even worst gossiping or sarcastic (with a loud voice) along with hysterical laugh, even i don't even know them. YES IT'S HURT. So the only thing i can do is, put the stuff back, walk away and go home. I feel lack of confident afterward, feel sad and depressed to go out even just to buy clothes or small stuff. How we the new Muslim want to improve with that type of attitude? Not helpful at all.

I'm not a philosopher or a wise person. But i know how much it hurt. It hurt so bad. Some of your (Muslimah) action might hurt us and worst scene scenario, making us regret to be a Muslim. Honestly, after I've been treated bad, I feel hurt, depressed, stress out and paranoid. I don't want to go out and meet outside world. Even worst, make me feel miserable and think "Why I become a Muslim. They're (97% Muslimah) mostly mean / rude toward me. I feel not welcome." 97% refer to Muslimah around me, not included the other area / country. Yes i'm only refer to Muslimah, because the men, I don't really deal with them because I don't talk or look at them unless something important, but mostly my husband the one who will deal with men.

Back to the story; after some moment, I realize and say "أستغفر الله" for thinking that way. I love Islam. I believe there's no God but Allah and Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is his Prophet. I converted to Muslim not because a person, not because any of you but because Allah. I have no one but my husband who cheer me up, Encourage me and advice me. He always remind me. And there, i stop thinking about it and ignore. My solution either confront them one day if it's happened again or buying online. If some of you asking "So your husband do nothing about it?" Trust me, he almost warn / yell at them but then I stop him. It's just not worth it. What make me feel more relief and stand strong is when my husband telling me these "Ignore them. If they can't be a good Muslimah, then prove them, you're a good Muslimah. You're different. Be a good Muslimah that can make other Muslimah want to be good just like you, giving them hope, encourage them and also give a good example. You're special." Now that's what we called "i'm the most luckiest women for having a great husband like him!" Alhamdulilah! (:



I hope my story have a moral values in it, or maybe can guide someone who new like me too and also give a good lesson to some people who maybe mean to others. Mean not "makna", mean "kejam", i think. I'm not really good in Malay thou. Anyhow, please bear in mind and practice these:

STOP JUDGING.
BE UNDERSTANDING.
ENCOURAGE OTHERS.
BE NICE.
BE A GOOD EXAMPLE.
DO SOMETHING THAT MAKES ALLAH HAPPY.

Not everyone is born as a Muslim. You're lucky but honestly I am so disappointed with that type of attitude. So in case you have this type of attitude, CHANGE. That it, for part 1. If some point hurt your feeling, forgive me but yes the truth is hurt. Thank you for spending your time with me and see you again on my next post. May Allah blessed each one of us.

The story of the Question why: If the Syaitan is locked up during Ramadan, why do we still do bad things?

السلام عليكم




Someone asked a righteous man : "If the Syaitan is locked up during Ramadan, why do we still do bad things?"
He answered him:” "What happens when you stir a cup of coffee for a long time? After you take the spoon out, the coffee continues to stir on its own, right? Syaitan is that stirrer and we are his coffee. Our bad habits continue to stir even when he is away."



Syaitan is weak but he knows that he will not be able to misguide us in Ramadan so he makes us get used to the sins. He sets us to make the sins as a habit. It’s true that shaytan will be gone in Ramadan but our old habits will stay with us. So, in the Month of Mercy our true battle is with the evil in our Nafs, our real encounter is with our bad habits.


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Just one of a nice story to share about (:

Insha Allah by Maher Zain


Everytime you feel like you cannot go on
You feel so lost
That your so alone
All you is see is night
And darkness all around
You feel so helpless
You can’t see which way to go
Don’t despair and never loose hope
Cause Allah is always by your side
Insha Allah x3
Insya Allah you’ll find your way
Everytime you commit one more mistake
You feel you can’t repent
And that its way too late
Your’re so confused, wrong decisions you have made
Haunt your mind and your heart is full of shame
Don’t despair and never loose hope
Cause Allah is always by your side
Insha Allah x3
Insya Allah you’ll find your way
Insha Allah x3
Insya Allah you’ll find your way
Turn to Allah
He’s never far away
Put your trust in Him
Raise your hands and pray
OOO Ya Allah
Guide my steps don’t let me go astray
You’re the only one that showed me the way,
Showed me the way x2
Insyaallah x3
Insya Allah we’ll find the way :)
