twins of faith

Assalamualaikum sisters. as usual, i will start with my apologize for not updating my blog bla bla bla. so yeah, refer my previous post and you will know how busy i am.

ramadhan #laterblog

assalamualaikum dan salam ramadhan.

eh hello. dah dua minggu baru nak bagi salam ramadhan ke? ya, memandangkan saya sungguh sibuk sehingga tak sempat nak update pasal jiran sebelah. haritu nampak lori datang. tak tahu pun perabot apa dia beli.

dengan kesempatan ini lah saya ingin menyeru anak-anak dan bapak-bapak dan ibu-ibu agar menghargai ramadhan yang mungkin tak akan kita ketemu lagi tahu hadapan. rebutlah peluang untuk tackle awek-awek dengan memakai serban putih, jubah putih dan kasut kulit. lagi Allah sayang, lagi awek sayang. cuma niatnya kena dimulakan dengan "lillahi ta'ala"

walaupun ada yang kurang senang dengan ustazah dan ustaz wannabe di twitter, ingatlah bahawa salah satu dari 3 perkara yang kita akan bawak bersama masa mati nanti ialah ilmu yang dimanfaatkan iaitu ilmu yang disharing is caring you know what i mean?
ada ustaz ni cakap. kalau orang tu x bagus pun, dia masih boleh nasihat orang. cuba tengok situasi bila kita sabun pinggan lepas makan. nasik dan kuah bersepah-sepah kat tangan. comot-comot. tapi sibuk nak cuci pinggan tu. tapi lepas siap cuci, pinggan bersih, tangan juga bersih. ahmahzinnggggg. maka, kalau kita yang tak bagus ni sibuk nak bagi nasihat, mungkin lepas kita bagi nasihat kita akan ternasihat.

jangan kurangkan pahala puasa dengan bergosip, menonton bahan 'buangan', dan perkara-perkara yang boleh membatalkan atau mengurangkan pahala puasa.

bantu jaga pahala orang lain juga. kalau pergi bazaar ramadhan, boleh pakai hot pants tapi pakai seluar panjang kat luar.
kalau pergi bazaaaaar, jangan beli sampai satu hari RM30. kalau nampak orang mintak sedekah, jangan lupa bagi. pahala bulan ramadhan ni lain machem skit.

lagi best kalau bersedekah di butik Cala Qisya :D

thank you Tia from CST for this beautiful Cala Qisya opening video :)

summer in seoul - day 2

DAY 1

assalamualaikum,

let's get the story rolling!

siapa tengok Winter Sonata?!!! saya tak. sebenarnya memang tak rasa semangat sangat pun masa nak pergi Nami Island tu. tapi sebab semua orang kata kalau pergi korea memang wajib pergi sana. maka saya pun pergi lah. rupanya memanggggg rugi kalau tak pergi. subhanallah cantiknya pemandangan dia. mungkin lagi cantik kalau pergi time winter. sebab nama pun winter sonata kan? mungkin time tu akan ada Bae Yong Joon.

from seoul how to get there???

from the link i gave, ada dua cara. satu by metro and satu lagi daripada pagoda tu. well i tried yang pagoda tu and totally sesat and pakcik-pakcik kat situ cakap there's no way to get there from the pagoda. i was like "NOOOOOOOO!!!" and then pakcik tu bagi direction guna metro subway line.

i have no problem reading hangul but you should see this ahjussi's handwriting!!! mencabar gila!! but thank you ahjussi! you saved our day!

amik train line 1 ke Cheongyanghi (under). cari exit untuk ke gyongchun railway (itx). akan jalan panjang gila dari subway tu. nanti akan macam masuk dalam satu building yang lain. building ni macam baru sikit. nanti boleh nampak Lotte, krispy kreme doughnuts tu. nanti akan ada ticket machine. kat situ beli tiket untuk ke Gapyeong. pastu nanti jumpa escalator panjang. naik escalator tu and tunggu kat platform dia. cari je gapyeong. akan ada dua platform. amik platform yang tepi sekali. tunggu train dia agak lama. then nak ke sana pun lama. rasanya lebih dari 30 minit.

macam ni la rupa train dia. seat dia power! boleh ubah hadap depan atau belakang

platform dia yang menghadap dinding tu

dalam train tu ada vending machine ni. tapi rasanya tak payahlah beli sebab diragui kehalalannya.

kalau jumpa budak ni tolong kirim salam. cakap kat dia ingat tak akak pakai tudung leopard yang sakit gigi tu? she offers me her choc but i said i sakit gigi sebab tak tahu choc dia halal ke tak. tapi tengok macam sedap je :(

Gapyeong ni station laaaaaast skali. bila dah sampai, terus keluar and cari teksi. nanti mesti ramai-ramai orang beratur tunggu teksi. makanya, pukul 7 pagi sila bertolak dari hotel untuk elak sesak. teksi dalam 5000won. depends la. tapi balik teksi tu charge 3000won je =..=. cakap kat teksi tu nak pergi nami. nanti dia akan bawak pergi jetty. kat situ akan nampak bungee jumping, nampak kedai-kedai, and ada kaunter. kalau nak bungee jumping, sila pakai seluar. haritu i pakai palazzo yang kembang gila while my aunt and my sister pakai dress and skirt =..=. pergi kat kaunter and beli tiket pergi balik. 8000won je. nanti naik jetty tu dan sampai lah ke NAMI ISLAND

gambar ni memang mintak caption "aku ada, kau ada??"

UNICEF charity train. 2,000won and dapat pusing satu island. huhu. hello handsome uncle at the back

halal restaurant. 

nasi goncang with kimchi pancake :D

another halal cafe. dalam ni ada musolla :)

nak solat dalam ni pun boleh.

kalau time winter, boleh hidupkan api kat sini

a place to spend the night. and tolongla main benda ni. dalam RM30 untuk sejam tapi akan rasa macam dunia ini ente yang punya. takkan lenguh kaki untuk pusing satu island. and you just can't help but to feel swag.

jealous tak wahai peminat Winter winter sonata sekalian?

an indie band was performing. they were awesome!!! but dunno what's their name

lepas habis melawat nami, kami terus naik feri, teksi dan train pulang. and where did we go? MYEONGDONG!!!!! prepare your money cuz your pockets gonna get burn! 

how to get there:

metro subway, turun kat myeongdong station (line 4) exit 5 or 6 or 7. and boom! there you go. 

 6 (yuk) chul ib gu 

exit (six) 6

is that guy in the green tshirt is checkin me out? LOL! with hello kitty glasess, hijab and acting like a total freak, which korean wouldn't?

 ddeokbokki!!! meleleh air liur tengok

ehhh! apa dalam vending machine tu? stokin!!

tak banyak gambar di myeongdong sebab tak sempat dan tak terfikir nak ambil gambar. shoppingnya buat anda meleleh-leleh! but it's not that cheap just to remind you. just that some of the items might be super expensive once it reach KL.

and that's how we spent day 2. zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

ouh an announcement. to those of you who might have not heard of this, dengan nama Allah yang maha pengasih lagi maha penyayang, Cala Qisya will be opening their boutique this Sunday in shaa Allah. all of you pretty people are invited. do come and bring along your loved ones. the raya collection will be available during that day. and akan ada mini fashion show in shaa Allah, make over and some contests. so jangan ragu-ragu lagi dan silalah datang.

summer in seoul - DAY 1

assalamualaikum dear readers,

(please be reminded that this is MY travel so it might differ from yours atau orang lain. sila ambil mana yang kena ya?)

for some of u who's following me on twitter or instagram, u may be updated about my short (sigh) vacation right? sekarang ni tumpuan 100% bagi yang ada niat nak travel ke seoul sendirian berhad. tanpa tour guide atau agency mana-mana. i'm gonna share with you my experience and my whole itinerary (as detailed as i can) with you readers.

some notes!
1. read this http://mforum.cari.com.my/viewthread.php?tid=644742 (some of the infos are outdated / cannot be used. so please compare with mine)

2. try to learn as much korean as u can! u will know why.

3. study the metro subway station. download the application for metroid. bersepah kat app store / play store. boleh tahu kat mana tukar line, berapa won dari situ ke sinun, berapa minit, dan berapa station. awesome!

4. download solat application that has Seoul in the radar. (for qiblah and prayer time)

5. if you're wearing hijab, get ready to be stared. they're going to stare at you as if you're a freak or compliment you (aigoooo.. neomu yeppeo yo!![waaaaa... so pretty])

6. let the elders seat (in the metroid). be respectful. "anjeo jusseiyo (please seat down)". it doesn't matter if your grammar is all over the place as long as they get the message. they'll looooove you if you can speak at least a lil bit of korean.

7. korean drivers are crazy. be careful on the road please.

tempat tidur: http://www.backpackerskorea.com/ (recommended place to stay for backpackers. seriously. make sure booking right after u booked your flight. kalau x memang penuh. i stayed in the dongdaemun. the sinchon branch is cool too!)

my flight was on the morning 22nd June. i reached Incheon Airport at about 4:30pm. now from here, i took AREX train. ada dua. one is express and one is biasa. we took the biasa one (4,000 won). lepas settle imigresen semua, dari tempat tu agak tricky to go to this AREX. find someone WHO CAN SPEAK ENGLISH and ask them how to get there. we asked two pretty ladies "AREX?" mind that we didn't even ask in full sentence and they acted like we're gonna rape them or something and just ran away. so dari AREX tu, turun Seoul Station and cari Metro subway. kat station ni akan ada inormation counter and alhamdulillah one of them speaks english. at this station, u will find a T-Money counter. buy the card there. the card it self is about 3,000 won and then reload la dalam 20,000 won. naik line 1 and get off at Sinseoul-dong station.

how to know which way is sinseol-dong station? tengok line 1. and dari seoul station tu dia ke arah mana. tengok station last skali and that's the route u're gonna take. please please please study the metro subway line. at least you're familiar with it.

bila dah sampai sinseol-dong, take exit 11.

okay so what is exit 11? untuk metro subway line, one station will have so many exits. like sinseol-dong, it has 12 exits! every exits takes you to a different exit. if you're suppose to take exit 11 but you take exit 6, you might won't find your way. so, knowing your exits are VERY important!

dia duduk atas Ediya Coffee!

bila dah selamat check in at about 7pm, kami lepak-lepak,tarik nafas and straight keluar ke dongdaemun. dongdaemun cultural and historical park is line 2 (green) exit 7. from here, pandai-pandai find your way sebab the markets are at every footsteps!

sila beli stokin yang dijual secara bersepah-sepah tu. 1 socks per day sebab kaki mesti busuk gila sebab jalan teruk. *pengsan*

 jalan-jalan di Seoul agak kotor and crowded. but that didn't affect Kim Jaejoong's face at all!(ada kena mengena kah?

nak tilik nasib? jangan risau. booth nya ada di setiap meter.

in a mall which the name cannot be remembered

end of day 1.

oh. and i was in the front page of Harian Metro today. no, i;m not the one who beat up the baby.

to be continued

day 2

Nami Island

Myeongdong

Namdaemun

fashion and charity

assalamualaikum,

berapa ramai antara kita yang bangun pagi boleh ucap alhamdulillah? lengkap anggota badan, ada lengkap baju untuk pakai, ada kemampuan untuk cari rezeki / study. mungkin ada yang tak cukup. tapi sekurang-kurangnya ada tempat nak berteduh, ada cara untuk baca blog ni kan?

berapa ramai kat luar sana yang tak ada apa yang kita ada? dying to have what we have.

memandangkan rumah saya terletak dalam 2km dari bulatan pahang, maka boleh dikatakan bulatan pahang tu aku yang pegang. ok tak. boleh dikatakan hari-hari lalu bulatan pahang. tapi scene yang saya nampak minggu lepas sangat rare. di mana dua orang lelaki dalam lingkungan 30-40 (tak nampak jelas) park motor diorang kat tepi bulatan pahang (exit sentul), seorang tolong jaga traffic dan lagi sorang tengah kutip duit syiling atas jalan raya. tak tahu lah apa yang saya nampak ni betul atau tak tapi memang itu la apa yang mata saya nampak.

mungkin duit syiling dia berterabur masa naik motor dan dia terpaksa berhenti untuk kutip. jadi kalau betul, kenapa dia sanggup bahayakan diri dia semata-mata nak kutip duit syiling? kalau duit kertas RM10  jatuh pun, siapa nak parking tepi bulatan pahang yang sedia maklum bulatan paling mencabar dalam KL ni? memang syiling-syiling tu je yang dia ada untuk teruskan hari dia ke?

yayasan chow kit, salah satu yayasan yang ada dalam malaysia ni. diorang tolong anak-anak terbiar di chow kit. yang ada masalah keluarga, yang kena tinggal dengan keluarga, yang terbiar merayau-rayau. ada yang 7 beradik berderet kat dalam yayasan tu. kalau memang keluarga susah tu memang boleh faham. tapi kalau yang mak bapak main tinggal sebab memang tak ada rasa tanggung jawab, itu memang patut diikat kaki dan tangan, campak dalam laut.

last weekend, azya bazaar ada organize charity bazaar X fashion show. semua duit sewa booth diorang sumbangkan ke yayasan chow kit, and designers untuk fashion show tu sumbangkan seihklas hati dan duit yang disumbangkan tu akan diagih-agihkn ke mana-mana rumah yang memerlukan. alhamdulillah. masih ada orang yang sedar tentang kesusahan orang lain.

and this bazaar also is a bazaar for hijab. busana muslimah la senang cerita. alhamdulillah makin ramai yang saya kenal sudah bertudung,sudah menutup aurat. celebrities also! it's a good thing kan? but i hope that dengan menutup aurat, kita juga jaga yang lain-lain tu. labuhkan tudung sampai tutup dada, labuhkan baju sampai tutup belakang ehem ehem. dan manusia di luar sana yang suuuuuka sangat hentam orang yang berhijab ni kan, why don't reflect yourself first? ;)

so here are some photos of the fashion show by Cala Qisya
