The Struggle For Islam’s Soul By Ziauddin Sardar At about the time bombs were going off in London, bulldozers were demolishing sacred historic sites in Mecca and, in Delhi, and a group of women was demonstrating against an “inhuman” fatwa ordering a rape victim to renounce her husband. Three seemingly unconnected violent acts. But they weave a thread highlighting a question we Muslims just cannot ignore: Why have we made Islam so violent? Within hours of the London atrocity, Muslim groups throughout Britain condemned the bombing, declaring in unequivocal terms that such acts had nothing to do with Islam. “Religious precepts,” declared the Muslim Council of Britain, “cannot be used to justify such crimes, which are completely contrary to our teaching and practice.” The eminently sensible Imam Abdul Jalil Sajid, chairman of the Muslim Council for Religious and Racial Harmony U.K., announced: “No school of Islam allows the targeting of civilians or the killing of innocents. Ind...

"Queen Victoria chose white not because it symbolized purity, but because she wanted to show her people that she would run the country in an economical way. White was a much less expensive color to make than the colors typically popular for wedding dresses at the time (red, black, and purple). Plus, it gave her the option of using some lace that she already owned, rather than having something specially made. So basically, the white dress was originally a political move." This shows how practical people were about weddings back then. Unlike now, you see telecasts of celebrities getting married lavishly. Datuk Muszaphar, the Naza girl, Dato' Siti Nurhaliza...and the likes. I don't see telecasts of Western celebrity marriages. In fact, they have it privately with the close families. However, it is different with our local culture. We are so used to gotong-royong that we need to include all the community in it, well, now that we have caterings and all those br...

1. Computer Science Game my group's doing some sorta girly fairy-shooting-goblins first-person-shooter game. I'm supposed to write the codes, and someone else do the graphics. so far, the states are done, but without the graphics. 2. English ISU research. it's a REALLY heavy topic Evolutionary View on Social Structure in The Time Machine. I have TONNES of pages to read up on Marxism, Social Structure, Evolutionary Theories and H.G. Wells himself. 3. Chemistry urhhh..Acid-Base calculations, I need practice on this. I should seriously make time for this. T_T 4. Advanced Functions Trig 5. Musical Theatre ohh...October please come fast. but I never get the pitching right for Colors of The Wind. I'm totally stressed out now.

Task One: 1. You have two buttons. One labeled "Timestable" and the other "Divison table". The Timestable button calls the timesTable function, and the Division table button calls the divisionTable function. 2. Assume that the logIT function has already been given, write the codes for the timesTable and divisionTable functions so that as the button is clicked, the respective tables will be printed out in the debug logger. Answer: private function timesTable ():void{ for (var i:int=0; i<13; i++){ for (var j:int=0; j<13; j++){ logIT (String(i) + ' times ' + String(j) + ' = ' + String (i*j)); } } } private function divisionTable ():void{ for (var i:int=0; i<13; i++){ for (var j:int=0; j<13; j++){ logIT (String(i*j) + ' divided by ' + String(i) + ' = ' + String (j)); } } }     Task Two:   1. You are given a text input box and a button. On click of the button, whatever information from the text input...

Setiap kali ada school trip ke SBP pantai timur di Pahang atau Terengganu (seingatnya, pernah mengunjungi SESTER-Perfect Score Zon Timur 2009, SBPI B. Rakit-HKSBP Zon timur 2008 kot? SHAH Pekan- HKSBP Zon Timur 2006, SESMA-bermalam untuk Sambutan Hari Guru Kebangsaan. Eh, who knows where the headgirl of SESMA 2009 is right now? and....tu setakat yang ingatlah tentang sekolah yang dikunjungi), kalau berkesempatan lalu Batu Buruk, mesti singgah beli keropok lekor. Best gila. Sekali beli mesti habis dalam RM 50, sebab beli untuk cikgu, untuk kelas, untuk ahli dorm. Sesampainya di kelas, keropok lekor akan dibahagikan untuk bahagian budak-budak (budak-budak?) laki and budak-budak perempuan. Di bahagian depan kelas, budak-budak laki dalam sekelip mata sahaja menghabiskan keropok. Budak-budak perempuan pula makan di meja belakang (selalunya meja akulah tu. Nampak sangat muka kuat "jjella", huhu). Kita makan 'cover-cover', konon ayulah kot. And then, berduyun-duyun pergi...

Yeahp, a two-day trip to Kelantan. 2nd Raya, went for the alumni thing. I'm so, so glad many of my batchmates turned up, but too bad, it was all rushed, and I didn't get to chat with most of them. I only got, like, two minutes each? Then, the next day, back to KL via Ganu. Hence, the title. I reached home at around 3 a.m. Okay, no mood to post. Later.

Dua perkara yang kerap menjadi sebutan dalam novel Maryamah Karpov, iaitu novel terakhir dalam tetralogi Laskar Pelangi karya Andrea Hirata. Tatkala menurunkan tinta dalam entri blog kali ini, tertanya-tanya pula pada diri sendiri, apakah bahasa yang akan digunakan pula? ahh..! hentam sahajalah mana-mana pun bahasa yang terkeluar, asalkan dapat menyatakan dengan jelas kupasan pada kali ini. First two books are more nostalgic, as it talks about school and childhood, but the last two books seem more 'epic'. It tells of his travels and self-discovery, albeit a tad Paolo-Coelho-ish. I find the travels to be extraordinary and hard to believe. You should read it to know where he went and what he did. What I liked about the whole series, and perhaps it is more prominent, well, probably, I understood it more in the fourth book, is the sarcasm and irony in the Malay habits. What sets the fourth book apart is the fact that he has finished his studies, so it almost seems like the end ...

I'm not so much in a Raya mood. Well, the fact that I'm totally broke, JPA has yet to give me money, and I don't get any pineapple tarts this year, contributes as much to the non-Raya-ing mood. However, the other major factor of non-Raya mood are my grades. Yes, it's an 'A' okay, but with people getting 90's, they make mine look like CRAP. And the fact that the assessment is not over yet, leaves me feeling paranoid. Obssessed. October will be a full month for me. UNIT THREE CHEMISTRY, MACBETH and ISU, UNIT THREE ADVANCED FUNCTIONS, COMPUTER SCIENCE CPT, omg...and.....Musical Theatre..October is like, the last leg before the finals, and if I don't give it all out, bye-bye 90's..or even 80's...my God...pressure is building up, I just hope that I don't explode. However, I'm looking forward to going back to Kelantan, although it's just for a day, and I don't knowhow many people will actually turn up. And another thing, using U.O.X...

Just back in Casa Subang! Apprently overdosed on anime songs. huhu. okay, here's the result of my mini poll on Facebook. Kamilah Kamil okay..just a survey for fun..am I a KL-ite or a Kelantanese? I am born and raised in KL for 18 years of my life, yet I do not have great bearings in KL. My dad's a Kelantanese, and after five years in Faris (a boarding school in Kelantan), I am able to speak the Kelantanese dialect quite well. I still speak it frequent...ly, and yes, most my statuses are in the Kelantanese dialect. So, what's the verdict? Ishaq Hakim You're a messed up Malaysian, in a good way though :) Syuhadah Muhamad kelate~~~   ALi AshRaf kelate celup   Abdulmajid Muhamad jadi ore sie   Wolf Volkmar an amalgamation of urban & kampung entity   Mohd Nor Iqbal ‎1 Q? Mkn budu x? Stands 50% of ur klntnese traits. ...Maybe hahahaha   Kamilah Kamil i eat budu only in nasi kerabu. I don't eat budu with ulam because I don't eat ulam.....

I'm going back to Casa Subang. Obviously, I can call my unit a house, but it is not a home. I had always wished I had more money to spare on groceries, and more time to do home-cooking. It doesn't even have a proper stove! The hotplate does'nt work. Most of us resort to cooking in a rice-cooker, well, I'm not going to do that to my rice-cooker. Ain't gonna spoil it. Yes, again, I am plagued with the need for money. Money is the key to good education, to good books, to good FOOD, to comfortable homes, and other luxurious excesses, yet it corrupts. Yes, there's that vision of a big mansion versus a moderate homey home, yet I see my more 'fortunate' friends and the food they get to enjoy..omg, a minimum of 50 bucks per plate, and such good food it is...ahh...if only I could savour it as well..this is what people call the finer things in life..I can live without a great wardrobe, although I do sometimes satisfy (and at times agitates) my longing for pretty c...

I don't know why I'm not raving about baju raya or kasut raya this year, but rather, lately, all those memories of celebrating raya in a kampung is coming back to me. I remembered when I was a little kid, I loved to chase all these creatures: and when I admitted this to my friends, they hardly believe me. I'm serious. This was what I used to do whenever my family and I go back to Kelantan during school holidays, of course, that was a long time ago. I now have my Raya in KL. Too many FUNNY childhood moments in Kelantan. I'll explain more when the mood strikes me. This essay is still not done. T_T

Isn't that picture pretty? Well, just some random picture I took from the net. Well, actually after the Book Thief, I felt like I didn't want to read anymore stories about Hitler and the Holocaust because it was too depressing, yet, throughout the times, people are still haunted by it, many books have been written about it. Such profound is the effect of the Holocaust to the world we live in today. Yeah, I do think it is one of the most inhumane thing that has ever been done, and I acknowledge the damage it did to the world, but to read about it? That's very depressing. Even for my literature analysis essay, I chose not to write about the Holocaust, despite the wider selections of titles that has the Holocaust as its theme. Quite a number of interesting titles, if I had the time, I would have read them, since it is on the list of recommended literature analysis titles, then most must have been quite good. I loved The Time Machine, and perhaps, I might write about the under...

laila's gymnastic 2008 Rahman formation KOT 2009 (the one I complained about, hahahha) yang Lord of the Flies trailer tu I will post after I present it this coming Wednesday ya.. hahhaa, Chem, Lord of the Flies and Advanced Functions still waiting for me..chow..

After many many headache-inducing affairs of the Lord of the Flies trailer production for English3U, I sort of got it done, I posted it on youtube, I'll put it on my blog once we presented it to the class first. Anyway, here are a few shots of the filming: the "shoreline" the first assembly. see how 'manly' the manner I'm sitting in? hahahha. I'm supposed to be Jack. paint! ouuuyeahhh..Golding was right about the face-paint effect. I hardly felt any shame for what I was doing in public. Savage man. dancing around a "fire". I'm dancing with a mop stick. "killing" simon Ralph and Jack face-off..those bars were from my apartment clothes stand thingy. It took me one night and a whole day to get the editing done. I have never used the moviemaker at all in my life, the first time I editted it, the file disappeared. but alhamdulillah, it's sort of done. The guy who was supposed to edit it suddenly ditched us. anyway, I f...

1. advanced functions (God, so much work!) 2. English: Lord of the Flies second draft (add citations-and I didn't bring my friggin' file back home) and ISU novel read-up 3. Chemistry lab report. When I get back to Casa, I have to rpint the summary thingy. 4. EAP compare and cotrast essay on two American Idol winners' career. 5. Compter Science notes on BB7 read-up. so NOT an enjoyable holiday. Yeah sleeping in was bliss, but in the end, I feel wasted. I needed that, but still. This is what CPU does to you. Had I finished everything, I'd certainly enjoy it more, in fact ten-fold compared to my SPM break, and I surely wouldn't complain of being bored. That's what I love about CPU, but in this condition now..hurhh..sabar jelah..

A Question of Humanity: A Short Story On The Social Evil of Baby-Dumping. The sight was a gruesome one. It will forever be imprinted on my mind. The stench of decay filled my nostrils. Even in solitude I could sometimes still smell faint traces of it. The image will always come back to haunt me for the years to come. There, sprawled on the grass in open space, with the face flat on the ground like a broken doll, was a rotting corpse of a new born baby. Flies buzzed around above where the body lay. Ants seemed to claim the body for their own. It was heart-breaking. There was no proper burial; it was as if the baby was just chucked out like garbage on the side of the streets, thrown away without any feelings of love, or compassion, let alone respect or sense of humanity. Even garbage was disposed of in a more ‘dignified’ manner- properly wrapped in a garbage bag. I noticed that one of the arms was missing. The joint where the arm was supposed to be was just a hole. The flesh arou...

I am surprised despite the fact that my handwriting sucks and my work sloppy, you said that I'd worked hard. I really appreciate it. The reasons why I worked hard, although everybody else would say that English3U is not even counted in our final grades, well, for one thing, I actually feal greatly appreciated for a job well done. That's a good enough motivation to keep me going, aside from the fact that I do want to outdo others(which I have yet to achieve), and yeah, I see it as a practice run for English4U. I know you work hard to mark our grades, as well on you lesson plans, and it makes it a lot worth to work hard in your class. Yes, I complain while doing it, but I still do it. The fact that you're extending my dateline because of my 'hard work', makes me feel a tad bit guilty. I know I can't possibly do it tomorrow, I have Chemistry, but the fact that you're granting me that extra time, I feel overwhelmingly grateful, and guilty. I am so scared of unde...
