::Chalet update::

Random fact of the day 1: I have the same web template as Qiqin! (though hers is nicer)

Random fact of the day 2: My right wrist is bigger than my left wrist by 1cm!

Random fact of the day 3: My right nut is heavi...hehe...just kidding...

Just got back from Solat Jumaat at Masjid An-nur and I seriously think that they should expand the mosque because this is the third week running that I had to pray OUTSIDE of the mosque's premises (right next to a Subaru Impreza,nice car by the way). Admittedly,I only arrived shortly after the azan for all 3 weeks but that is no excuse until I had to pray outside. The thing is,how do you expect we muslim guys from the whole of woodlands to fit into an old mosque? Woodlands has arguably the largest Malay contingent after Tampines and Bedok, throw in the fact that those working at Marsiling and Woodlands Industrial Estate and ICA, as well as those schooling at Republic Poly and the other sec schools (Marsiling,Woodlands,Woodlands Ring,Woodgrove,Admiralty,Si Ling,Evergreen) also go there to perform their weekly obligations means that ONE mosque is no longer enough to cater to the estimated 6000 Muslims who go there every week.

Then again,maybe it's not their fault. Maybe the "G" should be the ones addressing this issue (sensitive topic,korang faham2 jelah G tu sape,hint:ikan yu and company). We can donate $50000, $500000, $5,000,000, but ultimately, it's up to them to allocate land to build another mosque in the woodlands area or at worst,expand the mosque.

Ok here's an update on the people going for the chalet:

Going + overnighting: Anuar,Sri,Dayat,Nozie,Maria(!) and Fahmi,Sharul,Baizura,MAR(!!!)
Going,not sure overnighting or not: Azlina,Fana
Still pending: Arip,Zainal,Qiqin,Ferdy,Radiyah,Hykel,Azrie,Shu
Can't Go: Zaf
Haven't reply: Alhafiz,Nashriq (no surprises there)

Looking at the numbers,I'm guessing at least 15 people are going for the chalet,so I think I'll do the booking now, hopefully takde yang last minute back out (due to unforeseen circumstances such as nenek kau kahwin or kucing nak beranak).

I just remembered I haven't bayar zakat fitrah for this year (for myself, mum and Sri). Got to do it soon. Korang dah bayar belum? Kalau belum cepat2 gi bayar, kalau tidak Allah s.w.t tidak akan murahkan rezekinya. Sesungguhnya "Orang yang enggan mengeluarkan zakat bererti telah merobohkan satu daripada rukun-rukun Islam. Sebagaimana mengeluarkan zakat oleh yang berkemampuan kepada yang tidak berkemampuan boleh menimbulkan kasih sayang dan saling hormat-menghormati antara dua lapisan masyarakat, maka kengganan mengeluarkan zakat akan menimbulkan perselisihan dan kebencian antara sesama mereka.
Yang miskin tetap berharap akan dapat hak mereka yang telah ditentukan oleh Allah dari harta si kaya setiap tahun. Si kaya harus bersyukur kepada Allah atas kesenangan hidup yang didapatinya dengan mengeluarkan zakatnya. Enggan mengeluarkan zakat adalah merampas hak si miskin, dam merampas hak orang tentu sekali akan membawa kebencian orang yang terzalim dan kemurkaan daripada Allah."


Damn I'm beginning to sound like Nashriq.
