Oh Raya!

Okay to be honest, I'm just lazy to blog today. So I'm just gonna post some pictures from the previous days of raya, mostly from the first and the second day. These are just a few of the dozens from Facebook. Just check out my profile if you wanna see more.

This is the little family on me ma's side.

This on the other hand, is me pa's. See the difference in the number of people between the two pictures? lol.

Cousins.

More cousins. :p

With Ammar and Oshin.

UH. :b

HAAA! Lame~ but I still kinda like it.

Okay thats the end of it. Maybe I'll add some more if I'm not as lazy as today. No promises. lol.

Besuk Raya Kaliah!

The official announcement hasn't been made yet on RTB about when Raya would fall for this year. But I already know when. I've got my sources. And Its tomorrow, baby! Trust me. :P

:::::

Selamat Hari Raya to all.

And to all

Maaf Zahir Batin!

-Syafi Al Waly & Family

Enough said! Got a hellotta things to do before leaving for Grand's house at Kb tonight. I'm sure most of you guys are busy yourselves preparing for the festive day since I reckon most of you assumed raya would fall on Saturday. hah! Can't wait for the fireworks tonight.

Waly is out~

Unbelievable: Burn a Koran Day

Watch this video if you haven't!

I just knew about this from Facebook.

Wow, I don't know about you guys, but I think this guy went just a little too far. Not only is he promoting the international burning of the AlQuran day but he also authored this book called Islam is of the Devil. By the name of the book itself, we (especially muslims) find it offensive and provocative. And thats just the book cover, not yet the written contents inside the book.

He is a christian named Terry Jones. Obviously he hates our religion. Just because of the September 11th incident in USA which they believed is supposedly of islam's fault. I dare not to say anything foul about his religion for I acquire my utmost respect to it. But as for the man himself, I do like to stamp the words: Epic Fail on his forehead.

He said in the video that AlQuran is not a book of peace. But he and his community's attempt to burn the AlQuran is not gonna create much peace and serenity either. But rather hatred between the two involved religions. As a matter of fact, the Bible (likewise the AlQuran itself) allows the freedom of religion. So what Terry here is basically doing is standing against his own religious constitution. Enough said.

I'm glad to see that Terry's provocative attempt is not receiving much support from the people worldwide. But rather alot of foul responses and feedbacks especially from some of the christians themselves who, from various sources I picked out, believed that Terry is over-reacting and is making a fool of his religion, let alone himself.

The international burning of the AlQuran day is gonna take place on this 11th of September, just a few days from now. It also happens to be the festive Raya for all of us muslims worldwide.

I just can't stand the idea of us celebrating Raya but knowing that Terry and his followers around the world are burning the AlQuran on that very day.

Celebrating the 'Eid in London

Hey people of earth and beyond :D

Minal Aidin Wal Faizin, or in other words 'Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri..
To all, especially my family in Brunei..
and not to forget all the bloggers and readers..

Since this was my very first time staying here in London..and ofcourse the first time ever celebrating the 'Eid in London, honestly..i didnt felt for the excitment, or.. the 'Raya fever (can i say)..although i was really excited before, when i heard we are staying in London for the whole one month..but after like 5 days..i miss my family, i miss my friends..and most of all-i miss Brunei..

And seriously im saying; the mood for Raya just wasnt there for me..'hehs..first reason being very far away from famalies..second reason theres just no one to visit..and somehow this makes me want to add a third reason; no one giving the ampau for us' haha..nahh im just kidding..

But one thing i missed most is staying awake late in the Hari Raya 'eve (can i say) waiting for fireworks cracking every where in the sky..but here in London..it was differ than i expected, there was not even a spark of fireworking in the sky, except just the dark sky and the sound of cars driving by..

Ps; hope you liked the picture of 'London Bridge above..though i modified (photoshop) from its original..you know, since we're in London just want to picture the suroundings here in this festive month..

Oohh..forgot one more thing; Maaf Zahir Batin..hehe..

Wake me up, when september ends

Hey people of earth, and beyond :D

Yeahoo!!!...its the holidays for crying out loud..finally freedom is ours..and if you looked at the calendar today..we're already in the middle of Septmber and not to forget about Ramadhan....another 15 more days we wont even know its Hari Raya already..haha..

And what i missed about the these days is the song Wakemeupwhenseptemberends which was Greenday's most favoured for...and its been a while since i havent heard this song..and thats why today's title was Wake me up, When September ends..
