http://bukuonline2u.com

I bought this book during last Kuala Lumpur International Book Fair (KLIBF 2014). I can't recall from which booth though. i got some discount but the actual price was RM 17. I'm never that fond of reading books actually. However i do recall that i always compete with friend on Nilam during high school (that book where you record your reading and submit to your teacher. They give prizes each week for those who read the most). So now i'm somewhat trying to become that person back. But i try to choose better books which is not really my genre. Like this fellow.

I read fictional. it is easier for me to digest as i am that person who likes to dream much. This kind of book wasn't that easy though. I easily got lost and i got that feeling that it just repeat stuff though it really wasn't. this would then causes me to read SLOWER. Still, i love this book and to make a better understanding i decided to write some as i read it. Which of course would make that finish line even SLOWER to reach. Well~

oh my. it's in BM and i'm writing in English.

oh my.

Bab Satu : Manusia , Jasad dan Roh

Manusia azalinya berasal dari Allah. Bersifat nur (cahaya), roh (hidup) dan ghaib (tidak dapat dilihat dengan mata kasar). Azalinya berasal dari Allah merujuk kepada manusia sendiri yang terbahagi kepada dua bahagian; rohani (roh) dan jasmani (fubuh badan). Rohani kita dicipta dari cahaya dan roh Allah. Roh pertama sekali yang dicipta adalah roh Nabi Muhammad SAW yang dibuat daripada nur jamal (cahaya keindahan Allah). Manakali jasmani kita berasal daripada beberapa unsur seperti air dan beberapa jenis tanah dan proses penciptaan manusia selepas Nabi Adam dan Hawa adalah melalui kandungan ibu.

Kemudian perbincangan mengenai bentuk-bentuk roh. Sepertimana manusia secara fizikal nya berbeza-beza rupa, roh juga mempunyai bentuk yang berbeza. 

Surah Al Maidah, Ayat 60

Katakanlah: Mahukah, aku khabarkan kepada kamu tentang yang lebih buruk balasannya di sisi Allah daripada yang demikian itu? Ialah orang-orang yang dilaknat oleh Allah dan dimurkaiNya dan orang-orang yang dijadikan di antara mereka sebagai kera dan babi dan penyembah Taghut. Mereka inilah yang lebih buruk kedudukannya dan yang lebih sesat dari jalan yang betul.

Surah Hud, Ayat 24

Bandingan dua golongan (yang kafir dan yang beriman) itu samalah seperti orang yang buta serta pekak, dengan orang yang celik serta mendengar; kedua-dua golongan itu tidaklah sama keadaannya. (Setelah kamu mengetahui yang demikian) maka tidakkah kamu mahu mengambil peringatan dan insaf? 

Ayat pertama menjelaskan bentuk roh sebagai kera dan babi dek perangai mereka yang buruk. Manakala ayat kedua menjelaskan keadaan orang kafir yang mana roh mereka digambarkan sebagai pekak dan buta. Keadaan roh seseorang adalah berkait dengan amalan mereka. Rohani yang sakit menyebabkan seseorang itu tidak boleh melihat kebaikan dan kebesaran Allah SWT. 

Menurut imam Ghazali, akhlak yang baik menjadikan roh kita suci, indah wangi dan lembut. Akhlah berkait dengan bentuk roh kita. Sebagai contoh, individu yang sering menurut hawa nafsunya digambarkan mempunyai roh berbentuk seperti babi.

Namun perlu diingatkan bahawa asal roh itu suci kerana berasal daripada Allah SWT. Namun perubahannya berlaku apabila disatukan dengan tubuh badan dan dijadikan manusia dan apabila kita mati roh itu akan kembali dengan pelbagai rupa selari dengan perbuatan kita di dunia.

 

Roh itu mempunyai pelbagai fungsi dalam tubuh manusia dan diibaratkan seperti arus elektrik yang dibekalkan di dalam satu rumah. Tanda-tanda kehidupan dalam rumah tersebut dapat dilihat apabila peralatan eletrik seperti lampu, tv, peti ais dan sebagainya dapat berfungsi. Namun "tenaga elektrik" roh yang lemah mungkin tak mampu melaksanakan tugasannya dengan baik dan kegagalan roh dapat dilihat apabila manusia gagal membezakan hak dan batil ataupun halal dan haram.

Roh atau turut digelar jiwa mempunyai beberapa fungsi tersendiri :

1. Mendorong akal berfikir.
2. Merasai perasaan ketuhanan dan makhluk
3. Pemahanan ayat Al Quran yang kukuh 
4. Menzahirkan fitrah semulajadi manusia

Bagi memastikan roh kita dalam keadaan terbaik, kita perlu memberi makanan secukupnya kepada roh kita. Salah satunya dengan memberi cahaya Ilahiyah iaitu dengan beribadat kepada Allah SWT sama ada yang wajib ataupun sunat seperti solat, puasa, zikir, selawat, istighfar dan sebagainya. Manakala bagi mengembangkan kemampuan roh kita perlu memantapkan aspek intelektual kita dengan menuntut ilmu ketuhanan (rabbaniyah) seperti ilmu syariat, ilmu hakikat, ilmu tasawuf dan ilmu tauhid.

Tanda-tanda roh yang sakit :

1. mudah ragu-ragu
2. berburuk sangka
3. lemah semangat / kurang keyakinan
4. malas beribadah
5. gelisah dan resah
6. tekanan

roh yang sakit akan mudah dijangkita penyakit dengki, takbur, ujub dan seumpamanya. 

Tanda-tanda roh yang sihat :

1. bergetar hatinya apabila disebutkan nama zat Allah
2. iman yang meningkat dengan bacaan al quran
3. mudah menerima dan menyampaikan kebenaran
4. selalu beribadat
5. sentiassa gembira
6. tidak takut apa-apa melainkan Allah kerana merasakan diri sangat dekat dengan Allah

i love this book. now i got better understanding on the first chapter though i think i would read it again sometime. hope i can write on the next chapter as soon as possible.

till next time~

Roll On : Monorail vs LRT vs KTM

Roll On : Monorail vs LRT vs KTM

Jul 18, 2014

(i'm writing as if a UKM KL students were reading)

When you live in KL, these thing is an absolute important. You can almost go everywhere around KL with these, if you plan smart. And also some walking of course. You can also manage some distance into Selangor also. New addition to LRT will go all the way to Puchong. Just a few steps away to my aunt house. Sadly it is scheduled to finish when i'll graduate. Pfft~

I hate KTM. Somehow it is amazingly slow sometimes. But it really help when you want to go somewhere distances into Selangor. Especially being UKM student, if you were to go to UKM Bangi, this is your number one choice. But if you have car or can get hand on it, just drive. It will save a lot of time. 

KTM

 My route would be taking LRT to Bandar Tasik Selatan and switch to KTM from there to UKM Bangi. The LRT might take half an hour. KTM on the other hand really depends on your fate. If you didnt have to wait long, it maybe something around 30 to 40 minutes. From there you can take a taxi to UKM. Make sure you know which part of UKM you want to go since some department may have been allocated to new buildings. But some main one might still be in Pusanika. 

Usually you will need to go to UKM Bangi when you have things that is so important it need to be dealt right away right there. Meaning here, you don't always need to go there actually. There is a staff from Unit Kebajikan Pelajar that come once a week to help you to deal stuff with UKM Bangi. I think these system where someone from Bangi come every now then in a month thing was just established for a year i think. It is so convenience. So pull your life accodingly so that you won't end up need to be in Bangi. It takes times when you don't really have much to spend with.

OK. Back to main discussion.

Monorail and LRT were faster. But monorail got shorter routes and shorter trains also. It focused mainly in KL only. LRT got longer route (into Selangor) and longer trains. When you're going somewhere do locate nearest LRT or monorail or KTM station. Then simply open RapidKL website and see what kind of route you need to take. It really is simpler now. But sometimes you got to do it manually also.

Monorail

LRT

Like the route i use to go to Bangi, Rapid KL website will use other route. It got something on gettin you on KTM as soon as possible. But, as i was saying, KTM we're quite slow, so i am using much LRT as possible and when you a little outside of KL, like BTS, the KTM were faster somehow. Try to ask senior first when you were going out or just take a thorough hard look into the route maps.

WIKI

Most importantly, I would really suggest you to use your IC as your touch n go card since it will work everywhere and for free. Free here mean that you didnt need to spend money to buy the card as in touch n go and rapidKL card. Just go to the counter at lrt or ktm or monorail that sell the topup and simply as them to top up. The tricky part is it is quite hard to find counter that provide such service, as compared to the RapidKL card that is simply can be top up at the self service machine that you use to buy token to get into the train. That is why i always topup like rm10 or rm20 when i do find one. 

Funnily, topup at the counter are faster than the machine. Not many people queing for it. Well, no one actually. I never actually queue for topup. On top of that, it is really convenience since i can simply put it in my phone case (the one that got cover over the screen one) and since it is my IC, of course i would never want to forget to bring it and well, admit it, we rarely forget to bring our phone anywhere. Problem solved Like a boss.

one more thing. if you want to go to MidValley, take LRT to Bangsar and simply take Midvalley shuttle bus from there. Save some money and well, let just say i really don't like KTM.

oh. the most important thing! If you don't have any card, simply go to the self service machine, it will show you the map route and tap on your destination. slip into some money and you will get a blue token. Simply touch the token on the scanner to open the gate and going in and slip the token into the slot to open the gate when you want to go in. this is for monorail and self service machine. 

self service machine at lrt and monorail (credit)

 

the ktm self service machine were quite weird actually. people usually just buy the ticket from counter directly.

learn how to use this HERE

 thats all. bye!
 

Roll On : My Sensitive Skin Care ( i have asthma also)

Roll On : My Sensitive Skin Care ( i have asthma also)

Jun 13, 2014

This post is going to be so lame and I might even going to delete it. HAHA ME.

I got awful skin problem. It started during matriculation year and it never resolve. I thought at first it the hormone thing but I got my period during Form 2 and got excellent skin untill only when I got to matriculation college. Actually, the real culprit here is change of environment + awful lot of stress + my ignorance on being a good skin care person

Dear Awesome, whats with the asthma thing? 

Well, peoples with asthma tend to have skin problem. It related to allergy which is to long to be elaborated so we will just keep it this way "you got some sort of skin problem if you got asthma"

usually, it may related to so called RESDUNG.

Anywayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.  I am so not that person who got to become really skin care cautios freak kind of person. Mainly because I never got one and at matriculation college it was not as severe as current condititon. I don't know how much stupidity I got back at that day whereby I neglect to take immediate care. 

Now. My skin at it worst. I need to become this kind of freak or else I easily will culture a new pimples. Oh. I learn to properly care for my skin but did not keep much to the routine so it kind of being on and off kind of way.

During researching for better skin care, I have tried tonnes of product and now I am sticking to Aiken. Alhamdulillah that my skin don't get weird side effect due to changing of products. Some even make my skin lighten about 2 to 3 tones brighter. But not my pimples scar however. Of course it have don't nothing to manage my pimples outbreak.

Aiken on the other work well to actually reduce my pimples outbreak + the scar. I also feel a lot more comfortable to use their cleanser. Basically, it is quite mild for an acne treatment products. 

I am using their cleanser, toner and cream/tea tree oil. All of these product basically have Tea Tree Oil as it main substance for anti acne properties. They also have moisturizer and I do love how it make my skin look hydrated but then my skin look much oily thus I have stop using it. 

read more here

read more here

the reason why i got pump up to write today. Read more here

The best way for me to use this products is to clean my face twice daily and followed by toner. Then I will apply the cream (after cleaning my face) and place when I got pimples or prone to have pimples outbreak. The cream and oil really work well to fight the acne like those Oxy cream. Basically, those are using benzoyl peroxide while this Aiken products are using Tea Tree Oil.

The cream is much milder than the oil one's and of course less oily. Since the oily were making my skin look too oily, I only applied it before sleep or if i am staying in my room in the day. This have at some reduces the speed of effectiveness as compared when i am using the cream one. Effectiveness here meaning to get skin like my left cheek (picture below). 

Though oil ones are quite strong it give like scale where you can actually peel it off. I think it got pengelupasan thingy. Oil does effectively kill the pimples faster though I am not using it as frequent as the cream. But, i am not much of a fan when it seem like the scar are getting somewhat worse. It will go off eventually but with my on/off mode, its going to be a long time.

Here come the pictures. My face look quite oily since I am wearing a mask. And also I am using my webcam, so do add extra enhancement to every details in the picture. It is quite bad than this pictures potrayed~~

right cheek

left cheek

This is my current face, I couldn't show a before face since my face now got even worst recently due to stress about my exam, funny sleeping schedule and not to mention I scratch my skin (another stupid bad habit of mine, I just can't help it) with vaseline lotion applied on my hand. (stupid stupid stupid stupid)

As you can see, my left cheek is better than my right cheek. This is because (why does it feel like I am doing those lab reports??) during my rajin/diciplined time I managed to tone down my left cheek. My right cheek always got more pimples but since I don't do much care now, the pimples start to bermaharajalela back. On the other hand, my left cheek is rather spared since the pimples are, well, kind of all gone thus rendering its ability to outbreak.

Pimple my fellow friend is the blockage of pores gone bad with the help of bacteria. That is why it is sort of localizing it outbreak. The act of not caring much of your skin makes it a suitable place for it to live. Not to meantion additional predisposing factor like hormonal imbalance and stuff.

Yes. The perks of being pharmacy student. 

Discusing on predisposing factors for MY pimples outbreak.

1. Picking my pimple/pimples scar
2. Not enough rest/sleep
3. Stess
4. PMS
5. Didn't clean oil out of my face frequently

These is my issues. Point 2 to 4 is where I couldn't help myself at all. My life curently is having all sort of stress. Though if won't affect much on my emotion it surely somehow affect so much to my skin. How bad it is? imagine waking up with two to three pimples magically arise from nowhere. It is usually swollen thus making it look hideous. It usually now arise around my mouth area and my chin. Mostly it will become even worst when I keep on kopek the parut and stuff.

rather toned down actually

newly formed jerawat

Another problem is, the pimples scar won't go away. I have tried not to pick it and stuff cause they say it cause the scar. But it is still there!! And since area around scars got pimples, I couldn't apply the scar cream as I want to apply the acne cream.

Basically, if I get to routinely do the twice daily wash + toner + cream/oil it will surely help. I need to also quickly wash my skin with water when it gets too oily and wipe it dry. Occasionally, I will put those mask to remove clogged pores which not only remove the pores, I will also less scartching skin and some Savee mask every now and then. Lastly, I need to stop touching my face especially with lotion on.

I don't wear make up. It doesn't feel comfortable and it surely didn't feel OK to tenyeh stuff on my pimples. Though I do wear BB cream and Johnson talc powder. When I feel like it lah~~ 

OH DISCLIPNE. 

Roll On : Review on Hamasah As Syabab and Aiman Azlan

Roll On : Review on Hamasah As Syabab and Aiman Azlan

May 30, 2014

Here how it goes. There is this event called Mega Gempak held by the medical students here. It's quite something as during my first year the didn't do much on things like this. Actually, there is no program at all from their side. 

This 9 days event have a few like sub events (sorry for my bad english) and one of it is this forum called "Pandang Belakang, Pandang Depan : Di Mana Kita?".

http://megagempak.blogspot.com/

The topic was quite long and the moderator was like annoying/interesting kind of person and each time he mention the topic we all would be like laughing annoyingly hearing it (he purposely does that for making the forum more fun, he is not that annoying of a person actually)

Well, I just need to express that. Badly.

Back to bussiness folks! The panelist were Afiq Sazlan from Hamasah As Syabab and Aiman Azlan. To be frank, I am only there, watching the forum, because of Aiman Azlan. I believe he can deliver good stuff and YUP i was right. Money well spend!

Regarding Afiq Sazlan, I don't know him at all. Hamasah As Syabab is actually something like a production company and he is that person that want to make a movie that is worth watching for as compared to current Malaysian movies (as how I understand it, he got like a longer explanation, I just sum it up)

So, was it good? It was so good!!

I like it when two different kind of people, having same belief, giving out opinions in forum. It widen your way of thinking and for person like me, I like to analyse peoples cause from there I can really understand how he can say so and so. 

Firstly, mind yourself from what I'll be saying. This is me giving opinion regarding both of them as I see it from this forum. No, i'm not that kind of person who always look up for their new updates or vlog or stuff. 

Bismillah , 

http://www.aimanazlan.com

Aiman Azlan.

He is sweet and soft. He is that kind of person when you do bad things and want to be made understand that you still have chance for Allah forgiveness. He gives out opinion in such manner that it capture your heart softly and advice you like a loving mother. I purposely use to word "mother" to show how he is when he delivers his point. He got nice sense of humour and it makes people feel comfortable with him.

http://hamasahassyabab.com

Afiq Sazlan.

He is that person who didn't bother to read about Ahmad Ammar. Yet he still read it at some point (sorry, I can't remember why he decide to read it, but he does say that he read it halfway through only). He gives solid point, that stab to your heart. Not like things that makes you "tersentap", it is more like a realization. The harsh truth. He goes with solid confident and he walks with vision and mission. 

Hee. I didn't quite tell much right? 

As the forum goes, audience grow likings toward Afiq Sazlan. It's because the crowd are of students. Those who studies medic and health. Those of critical thinkers. Some may thought Afiq Sazlan was a better talker, but it is really because of their different personality and because Afiq Sazlan suits the audience best.

We need them both. There are times when people are hard to be convinced and people like Aiman Azlan is needed. He can win their heart and slowly make them fell that Islam is a religion of fitrah.

And then we got time where they have forgotten or become weak and negligent. Then we need Afiq Sazlan. He can help to affirm their faith and make them strong to move forward.

I do think this point a little bit exaggarated but well, this is how I see it. 

Oh ya, Afiq Sazlan win our heart when he quickly bow down upon unexpectedly seeing the usher (a woman of course) behind him during handing souvenirs ceremony. 

There is this one point Aiman Azlan mention that I like the most.

Istiqamah is not always do it. It is to quickly go back to it when you lost your track.

Actually, I don't quite really onto writing this. I randomly put this point on the things that I want to write and a friend of mine was keen on me to write this up. Apologies for any wrong say and do take my point as something to be think of, not to be believe.

Roll On : Lost in Selayang

Roll On : Lost in Selayang

May 27, 2014

A few days back, a friend of mine, Amirah wanted to buy some fruits at Chow Kit. I want it also and plus a pair of slacks. So, we went there together and in the middle of it she mention that Sogo was having this sale. She always his wanted to buy a nice handbag for her mom and I just want to jalan-jalan there and then somehow we ended up in a taxi for Sogo. Well,Sogo was having sale, the clack maybe cheaper and better there than in UO Supermarket at Chow Kit. 

To be frank, it wasn't that far away actually, about 5 minutes journey including a little traffic jam because of the traffic light.

Well, we would never took a picture of a mall.

But amazingly the sale wasn't as cheap as we thought. We ended up buying no bags and head for the supermarket. I didn't notice that Sogo have a mall until that day! They even have Manhattan Fishmarket there. I was quite shock and seeing a Chatime kiosk, I quickly grab one. Milk tea was so not my taste! I can't even finish it. 

Actually, I salah order. I want hazelnut chocolate one. Minus the milk tea. That one is soooooooooooo good!

Then, on the way back we thought we would  take a bus. There is this bus having Chow Kit sign on it. Just to be sure we even asked the driver and he say yes that the bus was heading to Chow Kit. So he say it is!

The one we took got cushion chair, we almost fall asleep. :

D

The bus actually have passed Chow Kit and was heading to his last stop. All the way to Selayang! 

Me and Amirah being rather blurred we just keep quite and was thinking that he may eventually go to Chow Kit. But he is not. At the last stop he say that we would need to take other bus since he has finished his duty.

The funny thing thing is, we were not all panic or anything. We were laughing and was thinking that it seems so surreal. The "journey" took about 45 minutes. Can't you imagine how we was like diam all the way doing nothing though we know Chow Kit was ONLY 5 MINUTE AWAY from Sogo. We were quite helpless at that time. Sigh~

Waiting for the next bus, we went for solat first and actually missed the bus. Being like ok whatever, we went into this computer appliances shop and ended up buying a headphone set. You can see how laid back we are at that time.

To be fair, it was really cheap! I even wanted to buy a wireless mouse since it was only RM25 but I was holding back cause at UKM was having Karnival 1 Malaysia. I thought it would be cheaper there. We have checked the headphone set price, it is totally was cheaper here in Selayang.

So, while testing and paying and blablabla. We missed another bus, the abang working at that shop was like you should really try to stop the bus. Well, whatever-lah. Haha. I think we are crazily too laid back at that time.

Then, in waiting for the next bus, I was promoting this Pak Tam restaurant to Amirah saying that their Mee Rebus is delicious. There is Pak Tam restaurant near there actually. Amirah was fasting and was keen on having something delicious for iftar. So we went there and then grab ourselves bihun sup. Wasn't bad at all. It cost RM5 and they gives you plenty of soup and the garnishing was quite a lot as well. 

this is some old picture, the latest signboard look more fancy~

And eventually, having bought our dinner, we finally on our way back to Chow Kit. It took about half an hour this time. We got our hand full this time. TEEHEE

And as the first driver say, we really do stop at Chow Kit and finally bought the fruits that was actually the first reason we went out that day. Alhamdulillah~

In conclusion : 

The oranges were too sour and i didnt finish it untill today.

The wireless mouse at Karnival 1 Malaysia was wayyyyyy expensive that if i went back to selayang , buy the wireless mouse and back to Chow Kit it would still be cheaper.

 Well. you can't always get what you want right?

The lessons is, we should take action as soon as we know we are in the wrong path.

And accept everything full heartedly, Allah have meant it too happen for a reason/s.

Most importanly, PLAN WELL.
