Bismillahirrahmanirrahim...
Seems like Jiha tak sabar2 nak update, here's one from my library. Heh, lepas ni kena rajin tambah dalam simpanan la nampaknya~

I went to McSA iftar this evening. It was the usual Shawwal iftar, but maybe a special one since NU President Schapiro was there to have dinner with us.
Maghrib prayer time. I saw a brother who was running trying to catch up with the jama'ah. And he did, alhamdulillah.
He couldn't miss the jama'ah.
There's different between praying fard or jama'ah.
Are we doing the same thing? Or we just wait for the jama'ah to finish since we are late already?

I got a chance to have a chat with one of President's relative. She was amazed with Malaysia sponsoring students to US. Not 10, or 100, but hundreds.
And she asked, "Do you like politics?"
I was feeling weird, but "Yeah, a little bit though I'm not interested to get involve for now."
"Do women get to be involved in politics in your country?"
I've never been asked this kind of questions. Well, I answered more or less from what I know.
I should learn more about Islam and Malaysia. Study about yourself!
Ps: Watching video of "Cat Steven's transition to Yusuf Islam" again. It's so inspiring. =)

"Do women get involved in politics"
Most definitely. Be it nationalist party, secular, Islamist, hijabis, non-hijabis etc. All are very much part of politics. In fact Dr Wan Azizah was opposition leader for quite a long period of time. In the ruling government, we have ministers like nationalist Rafidah Aziz. In the opposition, there is secularist Teresa Kok and Islamist Dr Siti Mariah, just to name a few.
Yups. I definitely agree with that. =)
Well, it's just my first time being thrown with that kind of questions. And she's really interested with the fact. I wish to talk with her again.
thanks anonymous. sapelah ni? malas nak cari IP.
