[Eng] As a kid, how Manga & Anime helps me to see the world

I like manga and anime. Only of certain type that is. 

The one with  storyline that are breath-taking. Plots lay out that was mind boggling. 

Well of course, if they are not that good, it would not go worldwide. Salute to the mind that in charge of making them. 

Even worth to say that the one have political intentions of changing the world. Yes, they made our children & teenagers, to be involved to change the world.

Might not an instant change but accordingly. In their own pace, to their own eras.

[Intro songs starts, audience clapping]

Andrew (A): Hello again and welcome back. We sure took a lot of breaks when the story is right at it's peak. With us tonight is Dr Fattah Al-Amin or some of his colleagues knew him with his old name Dr Franklin A. Archer. So please continue doctor.

Dr Fattah (Dr): Thank you, Andrew. Before I continue, could the audience give a show of hands, who are the non-Muslims?

[About 30 people raises their hands]

And among these lovely people who are brought here by themselves?

[About 10 people continued raising their hands]

So, Andrew, could you tell me how many are there since I obviously couldn't see that.

[The crowd laugh out of realization]

A: There are 12 among 35 came by themselves.

[Eng] The Blind Doctor (part 2)

[Intro songs starts, audience clapping]

Andrew (A): Hello and welcome back to our show. The show where we share experience of one of our new brothers and sisters who embraces Islam as their religion of choice. Addin that our God, Allah Almighty, we worship and nothing but Him.

Tonight with us ladies and gentlemen, give him a warm welcome of applause, Dr Fattah Al-Amin. Nice to have you here doctor.

Dr Fattah (Dr): Thank you, Andrew.

A: Dr Fattah Al-Amin, born in a Catholic family. Your name before was Frank Archer, am I right?

Dr:Yes, Andrew. It is Franklin Anthony Archer. And I still use that name in some event though. But during introduction, I'd prefer to use Fattah Al-Amin.

A: Well folks, as you all knew, Dr Fattah was been with us from the beginning. He has shared with us his early blindfolded era. Am I using the correct term here doctor?

Dr: Yes Andrew. The same as what we have practices backstage prior. [Crowd laugh altogether]

[Eng] Sustaining Measures (part 3)

This one is the the continuity of the previous entries I've wrote regarding marriage issues (1st & 2nd). I'm not writing these articles to promote unmarried life for mankind, but to think how nowadays this holy matrimony has change into further despair for some of us (and I'm included). Marriage has become difficult in many ways, despite the Prophet Muhammad SAW has mentioned not to.

For those who think that I'm not married, then your guess is correct. Still, that doesn't mean that I wouldn't. Anyhow, these are my arguments whenever the topic of hindrance in marriage comes to mind.

4) Money is Everything

Some might disagree with me in this part with their own sense. I'm not saying that marriage are causing bankruptcy, nor giving hardship to sustain domestic economically. But the fact we're living in a place where money puts priority before others. Yes, rezk is from Allah, but it doesn't come served to you with any cherry-on-top. The most important thing is to work ourselves for it.

[BM] Adat Merungut

Aku merasakan diri aku berada dalam satu komuniti yang amat suka merungut. Ya, SUKA MERUNGUT. Tulisan kali ini juga hasil didikan dan propaganda yang mungkin telah lama diterapkan dalam hati serta minda dari orang-orang di sekeliling aku.

Mungkin kali ini seolah-olah berlaku kontradiksi dengan entri yang lepas. Saban tahun aku tak pernah kisah bila kawan & bukan kawan untuk berkongsi sesuatu. Sama ada cara datang itu memang dirancang, ataupun sambil-sambil ber'kedai kopi'. Cuma sini aku nak bagi tekankan terdapat banyak jurang perbezaan antara "bercerita", "perkongsian", "minta nasihat" & "merungut". Semestinya aku benci yang terakhir itu.

[Eng] As a Muslim, What will you do?

When someone questions Existence of God then challenged part of your religion teachings, what will you do? Should you react calmly and tries to explain in a good manner or would you throw away everything that you have learn and blatantly accusing for blasphemy?

Ever since there was the social media technology present, whenever this type of issue (re)surfaces, the most common path that the commenter chose was the latter.

Quiet  recently, my email notification brought me back to my old place of debate to such matter.
This particular person whom I have made discussion (I prefer this term more than 'debate') with left me this:
I missed this part of your reply.. and "When the Judgement day come, pray that the judging is done by The God we believe in".. now, that's how all of us should think, that's how peace are made. That's what some of us have been telling the world, but some "groups" are too damn dumb to understand, and too effing self-centered to accept the reality.. I wish you well my friend. For i hope you're sincere, then this world would become a better place. As i said before, "Open your heart", and you did..

[Eng] 'The Green' Contraception (part 2)

The first two of main cause in 'contraception' by marriage has been discussed here. Shall I remind you again, my explanations regarding these methods criticizing people who disrespect this Institution.
Thus my second post this time, will revolving around the marriage life of any couple which prevent conception and expansion of their family members.

3) Loyalty of Cheater, Brings Out the Green Monster

Okay, stop picturing the thin green stuffed frog from Sesame Street. That
monster is hug-gable. Perhaps you could bring him out if you use it to cuddle when you cry. Please, not the Big Green Muscular Beast who crushes everything in his path while saying his name and what he is doing out loud. Unless that beast is what will comes out when you are angry. More over, why on earth would you use them for a method?

[Eng] Marriage as 'good' contraceptive method (part 1)

We've seen that the world population has suffered from mass-media-caused dilemma downgrading the most sacred constitution in human circle of life. Whenever a family or married couples has internal problems, it will go public as matter for discussions.

From early marriages, young-old couples, polygamist even divorces becomes hot news in that damn box and paper. I'm not referring this marriage topic in a positive point of view this time. I'm criticizing the people who made marriage straying out of its norm course causing it to be a 'good' contraceptive method.

Therefore, before I start to spewing my thoughts around, remember this, according to a research: In order for any culture to maintain itself for more than 25 years, the fertility rate should be more that 2.11 children per family. If anything less, the culture will decline. Historically no culture ever reversed at rate of 1.9, while at rate 1.3 it is impossible. As an example, if two sets of parents having a child each it is equal to half number of the first generation. The next generation in the line will only be 1:4 related to their grandparents.

[BM] Mahukah Kau Menguasai Dunia?

[Artikel ini saya tulis pada tahun 2007, mungkin sebahagian besar isunya berlegar sekitar tahun tersebut. Moga perkongsian ini memberi manfaat kepada semua]
Pendahuluan

“Kalau tak takut akan mati, tak sedunia perang; kalau tak takut akan alah, tak sedunia sabung.”

Peribahasa melayu ini kita jarang dengar namun, apalah salah jika kita berkongsi pengetahuan baru. Peribahasa tersebut bermaksud berperang dan menyabung merupakan pekerjaan yang amat berbahaya tetapi digemari orang. Masing-masing ingin menguasai dalam bidangnya dengan berpegang dengan “yang kuat akan menang, yang lemah akan kalah”. Sejauh mana kebenaran peribahasa ini kini.

Menurut kamus Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka, Peperangan ialah perkelahian besar antara negara atau antara kumpulan yang bermusuhan dengan menggunakan angkatan tentera atau senjata. Inilah yang telah berlaku sejak zaman dahulu kala, bermula dengan pertumpahan darah manusia pertama di muka bumi ini, sehingga kini. Bila agaknya ia akan berakhir?
