Because true from the heart, I like to say, I am thanking Allah for a longer life He gave me so I can repent. Allah is Most Merciful but we have to be sincere. And it is regretful for me not to have done it earlier. For once I have crush down this barricade, I see many things in different perspective. And many things come to me like an opening to knowledge. Truth to be told, I had tough time covering my guilt back then. I pray for all of us, Insya Allah.Lollieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02556102439572765955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8534501.post-91852987770163114962009-03-25T22:46:00.000+03:002009-03-25T22:46:00.000+03:00Datuk - Perhaps it is a combination of all of the ...Datuk - Perhaps it is a combination of all of the above. remember me in your dua' Datuk. :)<BR/><BR/>Anyway, Subhanallah! What a wonderful gesture from you to take time to explain your "nyanyi". I was not exactly thinking of anything actually because from what i remembered you were ok with Kahuna kan?<BR/><BR/>Tapi explaining ourselves to avoid orang "terburuk sangka" (I tak tau, Insya Allah)is the best way to do it because Syaitan is very quick bila bab bab ni. Ada kesah nabi about it. Tapi panjang lah pulak nak taip. If you are interested, I can type it for you, Insya Allah.<BR/><BR/>roti2 - When we start feeling guilty of what we wear, that is a good sign already. I am really talking to myself. And when we cringe to see something, that is the thing we want to avoid. We should not cringe when we see a niqob though. because Ummul mu'minin all cover their faces.Lollieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02556102439572765955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8534501.post-70521285136701862652009-03-25T15:18:00.001+03:002009-03-25T15:18:00.001+03:00your entry touched my heart.sometime its true that...your entry touched my heart.<BR/><BR/>sometime its true that we should not judge a book by its cover, same goes with not judging a person by the hijab they wear or don't wear...<BR/><BR/>i've even met girls who didn't wear hijab but pray 5 times a day and never missed the tarawikh during ramadhan...<BR/><BR/>we don't have to judge, Allah has a good plan for every one... that's how i think of it...<BR/><BR/>we put on hijab and persevere. we don't judge and make comments of those who don't wear hijab... :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8534501.post-39901706540525526062009-03-25T15:18:00.000+03:002009-03-25T15:18:00.000+03:00your entry touched my heart.sometime its true that...your entry touched my heart.<BR/><BR/>sometime its true that we should not judge a book by its cover, same goes with not judging a person by the hijab they wear or don't wear...<BR/><BR/>i've even met girls who didn't wear hijab but pray 5 times a day and never missed the tarawikh during ramadhan...<BR/><BR/>we don't have to judge, Allah has a good plan for every one... that's how i think of it...<BR/><BR/>we put on hijab and persevere. we don't judge and make comments of those who don't wear hijab... :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8534501.post-77816969823989323432009-03-25T08:10:00.000+03:002009-03-25T08:10:00.000+03:00Salam, great piece.

I was not that warak or anything so I did not see why I should be one back then. And seeing some who do but perangai entah apa2, lagi lah susah nak convince myself to cover my hair. Yg pakai pun tak solat, mengumpat and pakai baju ketat2. <BR/>But i wanted to become a better person, a better muslim for my children, so at 31, i wore my first hijab and never looked back. It did make me try harder to become better cos it really feels bad when you potray yourself as a muslim, but buat benda2 yg unislamic. Mula2 pakai, still tunjuk2 jugak a bit of flesh but now i cringe when i see my dada skin (even sikit pun) exposed. i still have a long way to go but I will reach there, Insyallah. <BR/>Bless u for the good reminder. - Rozi, KL-Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8534501.post-3811959128787874092009-03-25T07:00:00.000+03:002009-03-25T07:00:00.000+03:00*clap clap* can i forward this piece to a dear fri...*clap clap* can i forward this piece to a dear friend? <BR/><BR/>I could be the one in that bad circle of hijabis but hey.. that's was in the past.

Mabrouk sister for deciding to put it on. Perhaps we can encourage each other so we remain guided always.<BR/><BR/>masya Allah baby (Eh can I call you baby?)! I know what you mean. I am striving to improve myself. there are many levels of hijab which I am yet to pass. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps we can think of the easiest one to let go slowly. <BR/><BR/>Can i give you an example?<BR/>As for me, it is the perfume. I am trying to reduce the perfume puff on me. Because this is hard to do, I start reducing the puff first for some time.<BR/><BR/>Then I used extra puff and would find that extra puff overwhelming and decided that two puffes are too much.<BR/><BR/>Then I try using no puff when I go out to certain places. Fisrt places like my class. Then to hantar anak amabik anak. The last one to ocassions which is the hardest and am still failing. But for now half a puff only, insya Allah.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes I even forgot about perfume altogether. :P<BR/><BR/>But we are human. And to stop these things are not easy. Let's pray to Allah that He will make it easier for us.<BR/><BR/>Give yourself a present each time you achieve something. I now spray perfume before I go to sleep. That is a reward by itself.Lollieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02556102439572765955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8534501.post-43464926644059906792009-03-24T20:09:00.000+03:002009-03-24T20:09:00.000+03:00excellent piece. most definitely your going to the...excellent piece. most definitely your going to the used-to-be-very-dreaded-desert-country plays a part in this.
