Syabas - Malaysia

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia may have lost to Singapore in their bid to make it to the next round of the World Cup qualifiers but the big winners of the night were the fans.
A sea of yellow and blue flooded the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil -- an atmosphere rarely seen before in recent times.
In the past, fans would have jeered the Tigers after a loss but not yesterday. Instead, they stood by until the final whistle was blown.
Malaysia drew 1-1 with Singapore in the second round of the return leg pre-World Cup qualifier yesterday. Singapore advanced with a 6-4 aggregate.
Safee Sali scored for Malaysia in the 58th minute, sending fans into ecstasy. The visitors equalised through Shi Jiayi in the 72nd minute.
The defeat, however, did not bruise the spirits of the fans, who had only praises for the Tigers.
Insurance agent Azrul Azam Abdul Abas, 30, said this was his third time watching Malaysia play live.
"We were running out of creative options but credit must be given to the team, especially Safee Sali. He and S. Kunalan were the live wire of the team," he said.
"Usually, fans boo our players after a loss but it was good seeing them respecting the players and appreciating the effort. The people are behind the team."
Faizul Zainuddin, 25, a clerk from KL, said fans showed they were behind the team throughout the night.
"I was confident Malaysia would win but we were banking too much on our counter-attack and lacked creativity," he said.
"We should put this loss behind us and concentrate on the SEA Games."
Thomas Loke, 49, from Cheras, said Malaysians of all backgrounds came together in support of the team and despite the defeat, it was still a win for Malaysian football.
"I think Malaysian fans will be behind this team for a long time. They have made us proud once again."
Student Sharil Nazri, 29, said this was the highest achievement for the country for now.
"Of course, it would have been better if we had won.The players gave Singapore a fight and deserve to be applauded."
Sharil, however, lamented many fans were upset with the Singaporean team, who they felt were play-acting during the match.
The stadium was packed to the brim with more than 85,000 fans, although some did not have seats and were forced to stand throughout the match while others made their way to the media boxes.
Many were at the stadium as early as 2pm as they did not want to get caught in traffic.
For love of the game
AFTER Malaysia lost 5 - 3 to Singapore during the first leg of the World Cup qualifiers last Saturday, Nazrul Azri Othman from Temerloh, Pahang decided to gather all his family members and friends to watch the second leg of the match in Bukit Jalil last night to show their support and love for the game.
It took him a few days but in the end, he managed to put together a rag-tag convoy of 10 cars and 20 motorcycles.
"We spoke about coming here even before the first leg but after Saturday's match, we decided our team needs us," said Nazrul, who became a Harimau Muda fan after Malaysia won the Suzuki Cup in December last year.
"We are disappointed Malaysia will not go on to the next stage but our Tigers have displayed good team spirit during the second half."
Nazrul's friend, Mohd Shamie Afiq, 27, said: "We left Temerloh about noon and reached here at 3pm so as not to get caught in the traffic jam. We got the tickets from a friend who stays in KL who bought them on the first day of sale."
The Temerloh group, all proudly attired in yellow-and-black tiger stripe jerseys, journeyed back home after the match ended.
"We will be back to support our Tigers whenever there is a big match. That we promise." said Nazrul.
S'pore fans praise both teams
IT was not just the locals who enjoyed the game last night.
Singaporean Ahmad Md Noor, 57, praised the Malayan Tigers and credited the local boys for their showmanship.
"It was a tough game and Malaysia deserve full credit but I think they got their tactics wrong. Malaysia played well and was attacking when they made a few changes," he said.
"We (Lion fans) were scared when Malaysia scored. It came at a time when they had momentum.
"With the crowd cheering I thought Malaysia would score again. After all, they just needed a 2-0 score to win the second round."
Ahmad, however, lamented security at the National Stadium must be improved as he claimed bottles were thrown at them.
Another Singapore fan Hardeep Singh, 44, also praised both teams.
"My prediction that our national team had the advantage to win this match came true," he said.
Joris Van Dekerkhof, 44, from the Netherlands is an ardent football fan and was rooting for the Malayan Tigers.
With his wife and two children, he was seen buying the national team's jersey.
"We were fascinated when we saw the first leg on television last Saturday and decided to come today.
"I support Malaysia all the way."

SubhanAllah - Air Tawar dan Air Masin

ALLAH IS GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!
Kisah Air Masin & Air Tawar
"Dan Dialah yang membiarkan dua laut mengalir (berdampingan) ; yang ini tawar lagi segar dan yang lain masin lagi pahit; dan Dia jadikan antara keduanya dinding dan batas yang menghalangi. " (Q.S Al Furqan:53)

Jika Anda termasuk orang yang gemar menonton rancangan TV `Discovery' pasti
kenal Mr.Jacques Yves Costeau, ia seorang ahli oceanografer dan ahli selam terkemuka dari Perancis. Orang tua yang berambut putih ini sepanjang hidupnya menyelam ke perbagai dasar samudera di seantero dunia dan membuat filem dokumentari tentang keindahan alam dasar laut untuk ditonton di seluruh dunia.

Pada suatu hari ketika sedang melakukan eksplorasi di bawah laut, tiba-tiba ia menemui beberapa kumpulan mata air tawar-segar yang sangat sedap rasanya kerana tidak bercampur/tidak melebur dengan air laut yang masin di sekelilingnya, seolah-olah ada dinding atau membran yang membatasi keduanya.

Fenomena ganjil itu memeningkan Mr. Costeau dan mendorongnya untuk mencari penyebab terpisahnya air tawar dari air masin di tengah-tengah lautan. Ia mulai berfikir, jangan-jangan itu hanya halusinansi atau khalayan sewaktu menyelam. Waktu pun terus berlalu setelah kejadian tersebut, namun ia tak kunjung mendapatkan jawapan yang memuaskan tentang fenomena ganjil tersebut.

Sampai pada suatu hari ia bertemu dengan seorang profesor muslim, kemudian ia pun menceritakan fenomena ganjil itu. Profesor itu teringat pada ayat Al Quran tentang bertemunya dua lautan (surat Ar-Rahman ayat 19-20) yang sering diidentikkan dengan Terusan Suez. Ayat itu berbunyi "Marajal bahraini yaltaqiyaan, bainahumaa barzakhun laa yabghiyaan.. ."Artinya: "Dia biarkan dua lautan bertemu, di antara keduanya ada batas yang tidak boleh ditembus." Kemudian dibacakan surat Al Furqan ayat 53 di atas.

Selain itu, dalam beberapa kitab tafsir, ayat tentang bertemunya dua lautan tapi tak bercampur airnya diertikan sebagai lokasi muara sungai, di mana terjadi pertemuan antara air tawar dari sungai dan air masin dari laut. Namun tafsir itu tidak menjelaskan ayat berikutnya dari surat Ar-Rahman ayat 22 yang berbunyi "Yakhruju minhuma lu'lu`u wal marjaan" ertinya "Keluar dari keduanya mutiara dan marjan." Padahal di muara sungai tidak
ditemukan mutiara.

Terpesonalah Mr. Costeau mendengar ayat-ayat Al Qur'an itu, melebihi kekagumannya melihat keajaiban pemandangan yang pernah dilihatnya di lautan yang dalam. Al Qur'an ini mustahil disusun oleh Muhammad yang hidup di abad ke tujuh, suatu zaman saat belum ada peralatan selam yang canggih untuk mencapai lokasi yang jauh terpencil di kedalaman samudera. Benar-benar suatu mukjizat, berita tentang fenomena ganjil 14 abad yang silam
akhirnya terbukti pada abad 20. Mr. Costeau pun berkata bahawa Al Qur'an memang sesungguhnya kitab suci yang berisi firman Allah, yang seluruh kandungannyamutlak benar. Dengan seketika dia pun memeluk Islam.

Allahu Akbar...! Mr. Costeau mendapat hidayah melalui fenomena teknologi kelautan. Maha Benar Allah yang Maha Agung. Shadaqallahu Al `Azhim.Rasulullah s.a.w. bersabda: "Sesungguhnya hati manusia akan berkarat sebagaimana besi yang dikaratkan oleh air." Bila seorang bertanya, "Apakah caranya untuk menjadikan hati-hati ini bersih kembali?" Rasulullah s.aw. bersabda, "Selalulah ingat mati dan membaca Al Quran."

Jika anda seorang penyelam, maka anda harus mengunjungi Cenote Angelita, Mexico. Disana ada sebuah gua. Jika anda menyelam sampai kedalaman 30 meter, airnya air segar (tawar), namun jika anda menyelam sampai kedalaman lebih dari 60 meter, airnya menjadi air asin, lalu anda dapat melihat sebuah "sungai" di dasarnya, lengkap dengan pohon dan daun daunan.

Namun pengkaji mengatakan, itu bukanlah sungai biasa, itu adalah lapisan hidrogen sulfida, namun nampak seperti sungai... luar biasa bukan? Lihatlah betapa hebatnya ciptaan Allah s.w.t.

Apa Yang Yahudi Buat Untuk Kita Umat Islam




Ia adalah bertepatan dengan HaDith Rasullulah s.a.w : marhumnya :
 
“ berwaspadalah terhadap syaitan demi keselamatan agama kamu..Dia telah berputus asa untuk menyesatkan kamu dalam perkara-perkara besar, maka berjaga-jagalah supaya kamu tidak mengikutnya dalam perkara-perkara kecil “
 
1-      kita diajar dalam buku biologi, buku pemakanan ( kajian dan terbitan para kafir ini ) bahawa kalau nak dapat vitamin B dan kalau nak tambah darah kita kena makan hati haiwan dan hati ayam, tetapi sebenarnya Nabi kita tidak menggalakkan pemakanan organ dalaman haiwan. Nak ikut kafir ke nak ikut Nabi kita? Sebenarnya makan hati ayam dapat melembabkan otak kita sebab hati merupakan organ dimana semua toksin akan dikumpulkan dan dineutralkan. So kepekatan toksin adalah tinggi di hati ayam, maka makanlah kita toksin tersebut serta bengaplah otak kita umat Islam, sebab percaya buku sains keluaran kafir ini.
 
2-      kita diajar dalam sains bahawa kopi tidak bagus untuk kesihatan. Namun sebenarnya kopi adalah antara minuman kegemaran Nabi kita selain susu dan madu. Cuba tengok yahudi, mereka minum kopi, starbuck. Profesor di UK yang Yahudi semua ada segelas kopi ditangan mereka.
 
3-      kita diajar memakan kambing tinggi kolesterol, namun kambing juga adalah makanan Nabi kita. Seolah-olah buku sains ni nak merendahkan pemakanan Nabi kita. Sebenarnya daging kambing adalah daging paling kurang kolesterol.
 
4-      kita diajar bahawa makan McDonalds adalah bagus, namun sebenarnya McDonalds adalah makanan yang sangat tinggi MSG dan kolesterolnya dan paling banyak lemak tepu trans.
 
5-      para kafir ni juga menggalakkan kita minum dan makan makananan yang langsung tak berkhasiat, contohnya coke dan maggi. Coke tu sangatlah beracun, pastu tidak bagus untuk kesihatan 9 gula tinggi, berasid, pH dalam lingkungan 3.5, ada racun tersembunyi ). Dan para Melayu kita juga yang ketagih minum.
 
6-      untuk pengetahuan , para kafir agen dajjal ni agak mengwar-warkan kebaikan minum soya ( sebab USA merupakan pengeluar soya terbesar ), namun sebenarnya soya dapat melemahkan kejantanan lelaki dan mengurang kesuburan lelaki dan perempuan. Selain itu juga soya dapat meningkatkan risiko kanser ovari, kanser prostat, serta melemahkan otak dan tulang sebab dalam soya ada hormon  estrogen yang sama dengan estrogen kat wanita. Pastu soya ada phytic acid yang membuat penyerapan kalsium, magnesium dan zinc yang penting untuk badan kita terjejas.
 
 

*Burnt Biscuits* is alright

6cookies.JPG
Chocolate Chip Cookies

When I was a kid, my mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now and then. And I remember one night in particular when she had made breakfast after a long, hard day at work. On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage, and extremely burned biscuits in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed! Yet all my dad did was reach for his Biscuit, smile at my mom and ask me how my day was at school.

I don't remember what I told him that night, but I do remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits. And I'll never forget what he said: "Honey, I love burned biscuits."

Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if he really liked his biscuits burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, "Your momma put in a long hard day at work today and she's real tired. And besides... a burnt biscuit never hurt anyone!"

You know, life is full of imperfect things... and imperfect people.. I'm not the best at hardly anything, and I forget birthdays and anniversaries just like everyone else. What I've learned over the years is that learning to accept each other’s faults and choosing to celebrate each other’s differences, is one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship.

So...please pass me a biscuit. And yes, the burned one will do just fine!

Life is too short to wake up with regrets... Love the people who treat you right and forget about the ones who don't.

ENJOY LIFE NOW - IT HAS AN EXPIRY DATE!
