Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare - Tools of Shaytan?

While watching a lecture by Ustaz Mahmud from YAMTV, I just realized something important. He was speaking about Riak and Facebook/Twitter.


Below is excerpt from the talk.

"Riak is a hidden shirk" - Hadith. Hidden in the sense of liking it to a black ant on a black rock.

"Allah SWT will not accept any deed from His servants unless it's done purely for Allah SWT." - Hadith

'Riak' is the greatest disease befallen to the ummah. What is Riak? Show off / Pride.  Opposite word of "Riak" is "Ikhlas" which is sincere.

The nature of nafs 'Amarah' is the need to show off our wealth, education, knowledge, children, vacation, gifts and such. The kufar have invented Facebook and Twitter. 



My thoughts:-

It's a possible the best device created by shaytan to put many of us into state of Riak without realising it. Shaytan makes us think that we are good muslim but actually we doing riak. Without realising we post up our new gadgets/toys/vacation/handbag and refreshing ridiculous amount of time seeing how many likes we get. That's riak.

Abd Allah ibn Mas'ud said that the Prophet said - "He will not enter the Garden of Paradise who has an atom's worth of pride in his heart".

**Disclaimer - I am putting this out as a reminder especially to myself. I too didn't realize I was doing this. Use social media wisely. Use it for dakwah/for good of mankind but don't fall into shaytan's trap. I am not trying to act like shaykh but this revelation is really disturbing to me that I felt I needed to share.

Trying to Lose Weight... Again!?

For those who know me well, you would know that I have been struggling to lose weight and build muscle for ages. In fact I have stopped blogging about fitness for many years now.



I can give you various excuses such as work, time, baby, personal issue, family and the list goes on and on. Every bloody year I make the same resolutions. Nothing changes. I gain weight every single year and my cholesterol level doesn't look good either.

Last months or so, I found out about Herbalife through my relative. I was quite curious about it as he had some success. So I wanted to try it out and document a honest review of the product. So I started a new blog site - www.herbalifechallenge.net. If it works out, I will continue to update fitness and weight loss related post on the website. Check it out.

Baby

Why I have been quite for sometime? For the past 2 weeks, I have been busy with my newborn. Yes, I am a father now. My bundle of joy is here and she is so cute. She has kept me occupied the whole time.

Parenting is definately new to me, for the first week, we were very much alone to deal with her. Most of the time we were lost on what to do! Now with the in-law around, it is much easier. The poor girl has jaundice for the past 2 weeks as well and been under constant treatment.

She already has an email account and her own website. :) Yeah, her dad is a paranoid IT freak.

String of Bad Luck

Since this year, I had a string of bad luck. It’s amazing how I am still surviving through this.

  • My HDD crashed. I don’t have a backup. All my personal stuff is in there. The cost of recovery – RM 4K. Forget it.
  • I crashed my car at my condo at the first floor of the car park. I missed my brake and crash to the railing of the first floor. My car was hanging with the 2 front wheels at the edge of the condo. Luckily the concrete stopped my car from diving down. Cost of repair – RM 1.5K. Cost of repair to the condo – another RM 1K. Cost of live? Priceless…
  • Saman – RM 30 - RM 100. Superb. I had no choice but to park outside as the LRT parking is full. Don’t this traffic police have other better thing to do than saman those sitting ducks? It’s not that I don’t want to pay parking, there is simply NO PARKING! One hand government say take public transport but another hand there is no parking? What the heck?
  • My knee injury – this is the mother of all my bad luck. So far I have spend RM 4K on this. I am expecting to pay another RM 10-20K for the surgery. Superb! Can read more here.

It’s no doubt that I have been under tremendous stress lately due to my business. It’s been hell.

Being a new start-up, I have to juggle everything from the programming, management, finance, sales, accounts, HR, filing, banking and right up to delivery boy. My phone won’t stop ringing and my email won’t stop piling. I have no doubt this is all part and parcel of business, but working for 8 months straight without a break, took its toll on me. Surviving a near death experience was a wake up call for me.

I took a break recently to get away from all this. I left my mobile phone and laptop at home and ran to Malacca. Stayed in Holiday Inn. Nice place.

Unfortunately, it only helped a bit. One lesson I learn here is I am too dependant on technology. As a business owner, I don’t think we can escape from being part of the business. It’s like being the Borg.

Resistance is futile!

I just hope God can be a little forgiving and give me a break. Sorry God, I think I have to postpone my Umrah until I get well from my surgery.

Tesco

Firstly, while I was trying to tweak the design for this blog, I somehow screwed it up. I am trying to find some time to fix it.

As usual, I do my shopping at Mydin. Yesterday, the road was quite jam than usual. When I finally reached Mydin, there were large number of Police vehicles and personnel. Then when I saw 2 UTK motorbikes, I knew there was some big shot in the Mall. Mydin was cordoned off.

Its amazing to see how much Police resources is used for  politicians, and they keep on complaining they don't have enough manpower. To me, they have poor resource allocation and management. Ever heard politician being shot in Msia before? Common man, even Dr. M walks around in the shopping complex with minimum security.

Guess who was in Mydin yesterday?

Well anyway, my wife decided to shop at Tesco instead since one my readers here suggest to do so. We went to Tesco Curve.

Generally, not all items are cheap. Selection of choice is sometimes limited. Aisles are not categorized in the same group. Aisle 1 -5 will be food and in the centre is clothing, toilteries and then follow by food again. I dunno, its weird to me.

Tesco has a lot of their own product brand. My friend swears by it. He just love to buy Tesco brand items. A good thing about Tesco is their trolley has baby seat and a partition. Good thinking. They also have a policy whereby they will open a counter for you if you have more than 2 trolleys in front of you at the payment counter.

But, I am still sticking to Mydin. Better choices and better pricing (although not always, price tends to fluctuate monthly). Although I wish MyDin could train their store helpers to be more HELPFUL!

The Taste of a Real Burger

The food of heavens has been bestowed upon us. I have finally tasted the real juicy delicious burger. Its called Carl's Junior!

 

This burger is 100x better than McD. You people are being conned by McD by their slick happy-happy advertisment and al-cheapo crap burger. Forget the clown restaurant. Be a man and get this burger. Its better than Burger Kings as well.

If its good enough for Paris Hilton, its good enough for me..

A Wendy Senario

I tried out Wendy's today at Sunway Pyramid. I bought Grilled Chicken burger and my wife bought Fish burger. Both burger tasted mediocre at best. The burger was so salty. Another advise at the washroom, the tap has hot and cool feature. Unlike other restaurants where they only fake the hot part, this restaurant, the hot water is really scalding HOT!

I am sticking to Burger King. Ohh yeah, its been more than a YEAR since I had a McD burger ever since I joined the Hate McD cult. So people it is possible to stop eating fast food.

 

For the first time in my life, I paid movie tickets for a Malay movie - Senario The Movie Episod 1. From the trailer, it looked really funny, so ok lah, bagi can.

Within 10 minutes into the movie, I regret paying the RM 22 and vow never to buy tickets for any Malay movie. I will just watch it on Astro.

The comedy and the slapstick joke is so lame. The worst part was, all the best part in the movie has already been shown in their trailer. So what is there more to expect? The crowd although laughed at all the dumb jokes, I just couldn't get it. How can you laughed at the same jokes twice? You already know what will happen next.

Talking about the crowd, they acted and laughed as if they were watching in their living room. Out of the blue there was a shoe on my shoulder, the guy behind me decided to extend his leg and watch the show. Such a rowdy crowd. Dumb ass!

I really like Malay and Indonesian movie, but this movie is really sad. The only time I laughed during the movie was when the "Makcik" was doing the drift.

My all time favourite is still "Jutawan Fakir". I have watched it to the umpteenth time and I still laugh. Apek, ur the best!

 

Nabil, you are good too! During Sahur, I never missed watching "Lu Pikirlah Sendiri" show by Nabil. Funny guy. Apparently he has few movies lined up - "Sifu", "Shh... Dia Datang Lagi" and "Lu Pikirlah Sendiri de Movie". Hoping to catch those... err.. but I will wait for it on Astro.

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri

Hari Raya is just around the corner, which means Ramadhan is ending quite soon.

salam-aidilfitri02

Plagiarized from http://dungun.blogspot.com

This year's Ramadhan has been quite meaningful to me. I have learn a lot in terms of spiritual and the fact that God is ever forgiving. I am happy Raya is coming, but sad that I didn't fully utilised Ramadhan.

I would like to share with everyone on this very useful and intelligently done website. Its an online Quran. It has translation (English, Malay and Urdu) and audio of Quran recitation.

So everyone, Muslim or non-Muslim, now you have the oppurtunity to learn about the Quran. So before you label every Muslim to be turban headed and a gun trotting terrorist who loves to blow up people with planes, lets try to learn about the Quran and its true meaning.

 

Quran Explorer - Interactive Audio Recitations & Translations

 

This year Raya will be the first year without my dad. I will make a visit to him after my Raya prayers. Raya this year will be low key, "baju raya pun tak beli lagi..."

Selamat Hari Raya to all my readers... although only handful of you. You make my day each time you place a comment. Thank you very much. If I have written something that might have offended you, please don't put me into ISA. "Maaf Zahir Batin".

Bali Trip

 
I am suppose to update on Day 2, but its has been sometime now that I have forgotten what I did. All I can remember now was that I had a bad food poisoning after Made Warung.
 
I remember getting up around 6 AM, my stomach was rumbling. After that the entire 2 days was gone and I spend most of my time in the loo.
 
On the 3rd, we transferred over to Bali Island Villa for 4D3N. I had to go to the clinic. The staff brought me to the clinic nearby and waited for me - very nice of them. The charge for some diarrhoea medicine - RM 200 ++! What a rip-off!
 
Below is the snippets of the entire trip:-
 
Day 2:-
  • Toilet
  • Massage in Samaya, was OK.
  • Seminyak Town - short lived journey
  • Toilet
  • A romantic beach side dinner. It was really nice eating by the beach and listening to the breaking of the waves. Check it out.

Day 3:-

  • I initially choose Bali Island because of the pool, however I have since regret it. Samaya was much better. Hotel reviews are at the bottom of this post.
  • Dinner Cruise - Initially it was boring, since there were large group of Korean and Chinese people. The band sang songs dedicated for them which we didn't understand a thing. There is nothing much except for the boat leaving to the sea and eating buffet.
  • There were some interesting entertainment and my wife and me got invited to do some rather "erotic" game. Ohh God...
  • Finally we meet a large Malaysian group from Celcom - Apa khabar?
  • Towards the end, there were some sexy dance, see below.

Our Cruise Boat

 

Day 4:-

  • I have recovered from my food poisoning. I ask the villa's driver to sent me to Kuta Town. Remember, although not compulsory, but I had to tip the driver each time. My total tips for this trip cost me nearly few hundred Ringgit.
  • Kuta is full of people trying to make money out of you. We did manage to walk until Kuta beach and Hard Rock cafe. Its full of people. Reminds me of Pattaya.
  • We visited Tanah Lot and another temple (can't remember the name now). Tanah Lot is full of shops and you will need to bargain up to 50-70%. Good stuff.

  • Once we return to the villa, I had a surprise waiting for my wife. A romantic candle light dinner beside the pool. Check it out! Ain't I romantic?

Day 5:-

  • An interesting day. We had our breakfast in the villa. Sadly, the breakfast is disappointing. We were too spoiled in Samaya.
  • We had our massage in Tanah Merah Spa part of Bali Island Villa. In my years of getting massage, this is the best massage I ever had. It's not the spa, but the masseur. She was really good! I could feel my entire body went into deep state of relaxation.
  • Next was Uluwatu Tour and Kechek dance. On top of the hill, there is specatcular view of the ocean.

  • I really enjoyed the Kechek / Kecak / Monkey dance. It's about a story of Rama and Sita taken from a small part of the Ramayana epic story of 50,000 lines. Audience were given the storyline ahead so we could relate the dance sequence with the story. I am big fan of history, so this excited me.

  • After the dance, we were ushered to Jimbaran Bay for some beach side seafood dinner. Yes, more dinner. Call me romantic, after all this is my honeymoon trip.
  • Due to darkness, this is the only valuable shoot that I could get.

  • After the dinner, we come back to find the bedroom was flooded. Apparently there was a leak from the toilet and it spilled over to the bedroom.
  • Soon, we had an uninvited guess. Hermit the Frog, decided to have a beach party in my leaking toilet. Gosh...

 

Day 6:-

  • Time to go home. Before the airport, we stopped for a 2 hour spa treatment.
  • Could not compare against Tanah Merah, but we did have a pretty good spa treatment including body scrub. Place was nice and clean.
  • Back to airport, flight was delayed - nothing surprising.
  • I just couldn't wait to come back home and have a proper shower. Somehow I feel the showers in Bali are mixed with salt water.

It was a good trip however we didn't do any water sports activity at all. Maybe the next time but definitely in a group of friends.

I am 30!

25th July 2008 - I am officially 30 years old. Yup, I have reached the big 3-0. I feel so old now. Honestly, I started to feel old since I hit 20. 


My good friends threw me a nice birthday party at Las Carrestas. The year before TGI, and the year before that Sunway Hotel. I have such wonderful friends.

It was very nice dinner. They made me wear a Mexican hat! Aya Caramba! Food was good although a bit pricey. A very delicious chocolate cake from Suchan. What more can you ask when you are around with good friends and good food? Thank you so much guys! 

After dinner, we headed to our one of our friends new house in Puchong. She has a nice house on top of the hill which has a very spectacular night view of Puchong.

Right now I am 30 going 31. I just hope when I am 40, I have achieved all my goals in life. I get really envy when I watch ETV. They aren't even 25 and they are millionaires. Damn rich kids. 

I means its sux to be 30, but since life begins at 40, I guess I still have 10 more years to fool around! Age is just number, Ganee.....

Bali - Day 1

I was in Bali from 12 June – 17 June. Below is my story.

  • Landed 20 minutes earlier than scheduled via AirAsia. I am surprised.
  • “Sabuk Pengaman” means seat belt. "Kartu" means card.
  • AirAsia Indonesian air stewardess are hot!
  • Came out of the airport thru a maze and saw a guy holding a card with my name on it. First time ever!
  • Drove to my villa – Samaya. This is best villa ever. I was greeted with the frangipani and the manager there knew my name. Due to some mistake, I was upgraded to Royal Courtyard. Its huge!
  • I was assigned a butler, however he went missing after the first day.

Decided to have lunch in the hotel, check out the view. Indian ocean. Waves are really big!

At night, we decided to visit the famous Ku De Ta Plaza. It turned out to be a very posh and hyped up place. After looking at the menu, there was nothing that we could eat. We called our driver from the hotel to pick us up and sent us to another place. We ended up at Made’s Warung.

Made’s Warung, I regret eating here..


After dinner, we decided to go back. Only take BlueBird taxis guys. The rest are just leaches. However, my nightmare was just about to begin. Wait for Day 2.

A New Career Path

2nd of June, 2008. On this date, I have officially decided to launch my own company. It's called Green Cube Solutions Sdn. Bhd.

logo_greencube_ongblack


Green Cube will be focusing on Microsoft range of product. Following is my services:-

  • Web development based on ASP.Net platform
  • Microsoft SharePoint, Dynamics and CRM
  • SMS / Mobile development
  • SAP

My ambition for this company is to deliver quality product and more importantly, it must makes sense to our customers. Its been always client vs vendor, but very rarely we can see vendor doing what will make sense for the client. I hope to change this. It must makes sense! Hey looks like I have an unofficial motto.

 

 arthed

 

I face a lot of resistance in this endeavour, many said "Don't do it, bad economy, its not a good time.. etc"

I have only 2 dreams in my life. One was shattered a long time ago and 2nd is business. I decided not to wait to long to carry on my 2nd dream, thus Green Cube was born. I lost one dream, should I wait and lose another?

If I don't do this, then I will regret the rest of my life. One mistake was costly enough.

Right now, sleepless night is nothing new. The amount of stress is incredible. Being a CEO of a company is no walk in the park. Not a day goes by without thinking, have I closed a deal today? Do I have enough to sustain? What new technology that I can sell?

Its exciting but terribly stressful. However, if you want to be a entrepreneur, these are all part of it. Nobody said it was easy. Wish me luck guys!

My father passed away

As unexpected it might seem, my father passed away on 4th March 2008. The cause of the death is probably due to liver sclerosis.


 

I got a called around 11 AM + that my father was fell down. Thinking he might have slipped and fell, I rushed with my friend to get him. We managed to find him and rush him PPUM. Then things started to take a turn, doctors were perplexed on his condition. His BP was low and he was complaining about abdominal pain. By 5PM+, doctor told me that he will not make it. I rushed home to fetch my mom and sis. I didn't tell them the actual situation. By the time I reached the hospital around 6.19PM, my father has passed away at 6.17PM.

Here is some notes I would like to share especially Muslims about burial procedures:-


  • If death within 24 hours, doctors will insist that they perform an post mortem.
  • If deceased has an insurance policy, the insurance company will insist on a post mortem report.
  • As family, you can fight the post mortem if the Police is satisfied there was no crime involved.
  • Body will be moved to mortuary. You need to get a burial permit from either DBKL or Police Selangor.
  • The PIC will handover to you a JPN letter. Photocopy your burial permit.
  • You will need to inform the nearest mosque to perform the religious rites. They will arrange the van, bath and prayers. You will need to go to the nearest burial office to get a burial spot. MPPJ's is near Jln 222. You handover your "ORIGINAL" burial permit to them. Without it, they will not conduct a burial. Burial cost is RM 120.
  • My father was buried at Kota Damansara. A new burial area.
  • Total burial cost will be below RM 600.
  • On the 3rd day, visit the grave after Subuh, to read Yasin and doas.
  • Go to JPN to get a death certificate. Please bring the photocopy of the burial permit, the JPN form and original NRIC of the deceased. They con me of paying RM 5.
  • Read alot of Yasin and conduct tahlil for 3 nights. The more people, the better. Prepare some food for the guests.
  • Perform a tahlil on the 40th day.
  • Get a Imam or anyone to khatam a Quran within the 40 days.
  • You need to ensure whether the deceased as a Will. It will be easier with it.
  • In order to close a bank account, bring Mom, with marriage certificate, passbook, IC, and death certificate.
  • There is alot of work to be done once a person has passed away. The burden lies on the living. Thus, now I realise that we can go anytime. A Will is important and a list of items to be done in case of death, should be prepared earlier by everyone, so the living can proceed the task with ease.

My father and I, we were not close but he was a good man. He took care of the family and me, no matter what and even the old age, he still worked. He didn't ask money from me, but I am happy that I am managed to give him during his time alive.

My father was a nobody, but even that, he knew the right people. He ensure that I got everything I needed although we were poor. I remember he had to beg the shop owner to reduce the price of the bicycle I wanted so badly, although he didn't have money to pay. He got me into University. He helped me for a government job. He brought me to the library in his motorcycle, while he worked at a stall. He bought me my first car and paid all the installment until I got my first job. He paid for my wedding with his KWSP. All these sacrifice of a father. I am sad that I am unable to repay fully his efforts.

He thought me a few things in life,
  • Be always punctual
  • Carry a pen
  • Drive slowly
  • Work for the government
  • How to change tyres and mechanical stuff

But as a stubborn kid, I didn't always listen.

Regrets that I have:-

  • Unable to go to Umrah together
  • A family photo
  • Provide him everything so that he can rest at home instead of working

As the saying goes, you don't know what you have until you lose it. All those chain email was right. Do it know, say you love them, provide for them. Don't wait until its too late.

I am strong now, I have to be. Now I have to work hard, so I can provide my Mom and sis a better life. Time is running short, life is tough.

Al-Fatifah.

Raoul boutique - Only for the super rich?

I needed to get some shirts, so I headed to 1-Utama today. After looking through Padini store, nothing interested me, so why not drop by Raoul and see what they have. I hate going to these kindda store because the salesperson there always give me the that look "Another window shopper who can't afford Raoul shirts" since I always come with T-shirt and jeans. Luck as it, I met another one here.

A Raoul Store

I looked around and saw one nice shirt and I asked the "Idiot" how much was the discount. He gave me the look "You still want to buy ah? Some more ask for discount ah?" and said "30%". OK, then I asked, what can I get with my OneCard (Since I just got it from the Microsoft seminar last week). Idiot said "I dunno" and walked off. He passed some remarks to his colleague and both giggle.

Actually from the OneCard directory there is a discount for Raoul. So I guess this "Idiot" not only a uninformed idiot but a total moron as well. I am not that rich, but I have enough to buy shirts from Raoul.

Too bad for him, I walked off and went to G2000 and splurged there. G2000 customer service was so good and they called me "Sir" all the time. How's that for respecting a consumer, regardless how he/she looks.

For retailers, please don't judge the book by its cover. For God's sake its 1-Utama, you expect me to shop around with a Tux?

Being a Tech Freak!

My first post for the year 2008. I am going to start the year by being a tech freak. Below are the items that I want to buy NOW!

iPod Classic
I don't want iPod Touch. I just want this. It has 160 GB of storage. Now, I just need to test it whether it will work better than my Windows Media in my Dopod.








Amazon Kindle

This is God-sent device to me. I am so in love in this machine. I want one but life is ever cruel. This item is only sold in US.

I don't understand why Americans loves to tease and torture us by taunting us with videos of such marvelous device yet unattainable. I freaking migrating to US. My dream of completely disposing paper is here. The e-books reader of all time. Save the trees, save the world. And no, Hiro didn't came back from the future and told me this.


Sony Reader Digital Book

Kindda lame name for a ebook reader. I thought since I couldn't get Kindle, this would be it but yet again, the Japs screwed us. This product is not sold in Malaysia and the eConnect website is only available to Americans.

I just don't get it, did we do something wrong? I mean, we let you run our country for few years and then we forgive and we drive your cars, we buy your tvs, fridge, aircon, washing machine, laptops and we worship your anime and what else did we do wrong? Tell me!?




Nokia N95

No, I haven't gave up on my Dopod and defected to Nokia. Planning to get this for my wife. But of course in the same time, I get to play with it as well.

Seems like a pretty good phone with all features that you can think of jammed into one tiny box. The price has dropped since the initial price of RM 3K. It has GPS, WiFi, 3G, 5 Mega pixel Carl Zeiss Optic lens and etc... very cool.



Garmin Nuvi
This is a GPS navigation tool. Why do I need it? Its like a chicken and egg situation, you don't need all the time, but when you need directions, you go like "Damn, I should have bought the GPS thing!".

I am not sure what model I am looking at but in the US it seems they have more range than the one I saw in Digital Mall (why I am not surprised?). And the bugger tried to pull a fast one on me, when he tried to sell me a Nuvi 750 for 3K and in Lelong its only 2K++. Bugger....


Well that is my tech wish for this year but not limited just the above. I just hope I can get my hands on all of them.

Maybank blunder yet again

Update:
Gloria called me up and said the money was refunded on Wednesday evening itself. Today she was rather chirpy and nice. Hmm... well thank you Maybank for returning back MY money.


I am seriously getting sick and tired of Maybank now. Once upon a time, they screwed up my bill payment. Now they are screwing with my money.

Yesterday I withdrew RM 300 from account at Kelana Jaya ATM. The money did not came out from the dispenser. Then I check on my account. RM 300 was deducted. It happen before, and they manage to refund me but this was like 5 years. So I was not too worried and filed in a complain.

I called up this lady Gloria and she told me that her report is fine and they don't need to refund me. What the hell? I said yeah, my account was deducted but the money did not come out. Of course your report will look ok. They are sending this issue to the ATM vendor. My God, I can't believe this. Its very simple

  1. Why would I want to cheat Maybank RM 300 when I have more than that in my account. You think I go no better things to do in life? I am a honest person.
  2. Simple logic, if the report say X amount of cash was withdrawn on that day, compare against the cash that is in the dispenser say Y. Take Y - X, I am sure there will be extra RM 300.
  3. There are few bloody CCTV all around the ATM, check lah and see whether I actually absconded the cash.
  4. Lastly make Police report lah, that I cheated Maybank. I am willing to take the lie detector test. If I pass, I am suing Maybank RM 1,000,300 for making false accusation, humiliation and distress.
Bloody hell. I am moving to CIMB or Al-Rajhi.

A "Happy" golfer

I just purchased a Happy mobile package for RM 5. Now I can talk for up to 45 minutes at only RM 0.99. How cool is that? For more information check out www.happy.com.my.

My Happy Prepaid

I started my new year resolution ahead of schedule. Had my first try out of golf today. I got a friend to teach me the ropes a bit. First day was not too bad, I managed to keep my golf club intact in my hand. I also managed to hit it right a few times. With more practices, I should be able to take on Tiger Woods

I really like the watch
