Beautiful Earth

Posted By Snow at 4/29/2012 0 comments

Earth From The ISS
ماشاء الله this is spectacular

There's the aurora, storms & lightnings, cities lit up at night, & more amazing views! I'm awed at the wonders Allah SWT has blessed this planet. وإن تغذوا نغمة الله لا تحصوها [Q16:18] How the Earth is sustained & protected. وجعلنا السماء سقفا محفوظا [Q21:32]

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
واختلاف الليل والنهار وما أنزل الله من السماء من رزق
فأحيا به الأرض بعد موتها وتصريف الرياح آيات لقوم يعقلون
And (in) the alternation of night and day and (in) what Allah sends down from the sky of provision and gives life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and (in His) directing of the winds are signs for a people who reason. [Holy Quran 45:5]
 

It is so alive, different from
other planets ماشاء الله

Bird

~10,000 living species of birds | wiki


Species from just the Hummingbird family | species list


I haven't read much about birds. (◠p◠)

I simply thought the many bird species are amazing ماشاء الله. From this one bird family, comes thousands of species - each with its special traits. إلا أمم [Q6:38] Sparrows chirps sweetly. Parrots [video] can imitate human speech. Pigeons are smart air mailers. Hummingbirds are the fastest - speedier than a jet fighter at full throttle. Peacock is the beauty queen.

Even a crow. It cleans the environment & guided a human. ماشاء الله
فبعث الله غرابا يبحث في الأرض ليريه [Q5:31]

In the Holy Quran, Allah SWT asks us to look at how birds fly. ألم يروا إلى الطير مسخرات في جو السماء ما يمسكهن إلا الله [Q16:79] This is how the Wright Brothers [ref] noticed that the air flowing over the curved surface of the birds' wings created lift. & how birds change the shape of their wings to turn and maneuver. صافات ويقبضن [Q67:19]

This resulted in the very first airplane. And now, muslims worldwide can visit Mecca in just a matter of hours. ولسليمان الريح غدوها شهر ورواحها شهر [Q34:12] الحمد لله


Airplanes were inspired by birds
But my friend said they look like fishes in an aquarium (◠v◠)

Anyway, I find it romantic to receive a pigeon mail. [ref]
اذهب بكتابي هذا فألقه إليهم [Q27:28] #الهدهد #hoopoe

Baju Kurung

Posted By Snow at 4/21/2012 0 comments
Fashion! OK, I do love wearing lovely dresses. But not enough to make a fashion blog.
Mmmm... Still... today... I think I'll showcase the traditional Malay dress - baju kurung!


This cut is the closest to the original baju kurung.
It's 2 pieces - (1) the long sleeve dress and (2) the long skirt.
The waistline is straight. It should be loose, & not sheer.


It is complemented with the headscarf | QA dress
So these are some headscarf styles

Sorry... (.◠-◠.) I can't wear dresses for pride or extravagance. I like to look nice, but it's about being presentable. خذوا زينتكم [Q7:31-32], فإذا آتاك الله مالا فلير عليك أثر نعمة الله وكرامته [AN6.48.5226] I should cover, and the raiment of righteousness, that is the best. ولباس التقوى ذلك خير [Q7:26]

& Islam enjoins clothing the needy. ماشاء الله
... فمن كان أخوه تحت يده، فليطعمه مما يأكل، وليلبسه مما يلبس ...
"... So whoever has a brother under his command should feed him of what he eats and dress him of what he wears ..." - Prophet Muhammad [SB1.2.30]
BTW when I'm ill I love wearing white.
البسوا من ثيابكم البياض فإنها من خير ثيابكم [AD28.3869]

Spring Time

Posted By Snow at 4/15/2012 4 comments

Does anybody know this species?

It's spring! Rebirth. Cherry blossoms. Allergies. Of course, in the tropics it seems like the same temperament all year round ha ha... (◠v◠) But for those who experiences the 4 seasons - does spring feels like resurrection after winter? ماشاء الله

Anyway, check out this exotic flower in our garden. زوج بهيج [Q50:7]

Still, one flower I know as a child is the orchid Oncidium Cebolleta. Actually, we call it the Dancing Girl - bcoz it looks like girls in dancing ballgowns. I also know the rosy Hibiscus - which looks like the more rosy version of the plain hibiscus. I planted it myself when I was 10 from my grandma's tree. It was very easy to care. الحمد لله

I also had memories with the dainty Lantana Camara. Well... once ago, child me was simply picking flowers in my grandma's garden. But for some reason, this one flower was so hard to break. It folded, but it just wouldn't break. مثل المؤمن كالخامة من الزرع تفيئها الريح [SB7.70.546] So, I tried picking other flowers - not one of its flowers breaks! So, imagine what happened to the tree. '(◠v◠) Still, maybe my grandma wondered if it was the cat who did it... ha ha. Sorry kitty! Lucky, she never asked me.

يا غلام إني أعلمك كلمات
احفظ الله يحفظك
احفظ الله تجده تجاهك

إذا سألت فاسأل الله
وإذا استعنت فاستعن بالله

واعلم‏‏ أن الأمة لو اجتمعت
على أن ينفعوك بشيء
لم ينفعوك إلا بشيء
قد كتبه الله لك

وإن اجتمعوا
على أن يضروك بشيء
لم يضروك بشيء
إلا بشيء قد كتبه الله عليك
