..Assalamualaikum..

this is a beautiful song by sami yusuf portraying the muslim women's dilemma in the west

being discriminated by the way they look, what they wear

they say wearing the hijab, burqa, niqab is opression

when in fact they don't understand the real concept of wearing these fabulous protectors

wearing the veil is actually our choice, our freedom

this is in FRANCE

starting 11th April 2011, the law bans the hijab be worn by women in france

who is the oppressed now??

for more info, you can read it HERE

what about us in Malaysia? how do we feel? what do we do?

some pray for them

some feel sad for them

some don't even know

some know and feel NOTHING

this poor women was dragged and ambushed this way

how heavy the test is upon her

only because she said..

  “I am Muslim, these are my values and I reject anything that goes against those values”

if we were in her shoes, are we as strong?

what would we do?

stand up like she did?

or Allah forbid, follow the wretched law?

faith check people!

i think in Malaysia its actually vice versa

yup. look around you. the muslimahs around you

rarely do we see those who actually follow the ISLAMIC law

as Allah have said in surah An-Nur ayat 31

"And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, headcover, apron), and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband’s fathers, or their sons, or their husband’s sons, or their brothers or their brother’s sons, or their sister’s sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of feminine sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful”

and Al-Ahzab ayat 59

“O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e. screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed. And Allaah is Ever Oft‑Forgiving, Most Merciful”

and for those who disobey, Allah has already said in the first verse of surah An-Nur

"(This is) a Surah (chapter of the Qur'an) which We have sent down and which We have enjoined, (ordained its legal laws) and in it We have revealed manifest Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations lawful and unlawful things, and set boundries of Islamic Religion), that you may remember."

"Ini ialah satu "surah" yang Kami turunkan, dan Kami wajibkan hukum-hukumnya, serta Kami turunkan padanya ayat-ayat keterangan yang nyata supaya kamu beringat (mengamalkannya)"

okay,i know i have posted a lot about aurat, and I do mean a lot

but hey,i think its something that must not be taken lightly

it is our image, the order from up above, our dignity

and I see everywhere,people don't take account of that

seriously when I where appropriately, I feel calm and I feel that it prevents me from doing something bad

don't you want to feel that way too?

seksi? itulah diri saya! just being myself~ pfft!

tension sungguh tengok video ni -.-'

mereka di France berjuang mempertahankan agama, aurat, maruah mereka

di Malaysia berjuang mempertahankan kebebasan membuka aurat

if we truly love Him and Islam, we follow His ways

so stop this 

and this

and this

and this

and this

start slow and consistent 

insyAllah He eases you through
don't wait, don't hesitate, don't procrastinate
if you're waiting for the 'seru'
it comes everyday without you realising
it came since our first time of period
it comes every time you see a perfectly wearing hijabi women
it comes every time some one gives you advise
it comes every time you see a photo or read an article about this issue
it comes when you are reading THIS
in the end, its your choice to follow His way or not


and guys, please please advise your family members and friends
surely you wouldn't want to be dragged to hell together? aiks :'(
and girls please please pity your father(s), brother(s), husband(s)

lets strive for the better together :)
