Duterte

I'm finding Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte a very interesting figure.


Bold.
Unstoppable.


I think he'll leave big legacy.

Diabetic rangers

Do you know what made my day in the clinic?

When you see a small polite 5-year old child who is so strong and matured, so well adapted to his diabetes type 1 treatment, i.e daily insulin injection and daily sugar checking, yet level of sugar still slightly unsatisfactory. When doctor gave a certain level of HbA1c for him to achieve, he and his mum looked at each other, and mum said
"We have done this before, haven't we? We can do this!"

They had fists bump and determined to make it a team's goal.
BLESS YOU!

By the way, you said glucose finger prick and imagined it as easy. Try imagine having to do it on your fingers at least 3 times a day every single day for glucose monitoring. Kudos to all diabetic type 1 sweeties out there. 

You guys are my power rangers.

Scars

"The marks human leave are too often scars"

Well done

That day when you actually managed to make yourself sit down for few hours and revise. And you go to the shop on your way back home. Look at ferero rocher, look at the price. And you can tell yourself, "I deserve this."

Well done Nana.
Akhirnya.

Wait

There are some things worth the wait.

Impression

I truly believe that others' impression towards us are part of His delicate arrangement. Pernah jumpa tak anyone yang depan dia you always happen to dress smartly or say the right thing or crack the right joke, give the wisest opinion or do whatever that fishes good impression. The opposite happens too.

Hakikatnya kita manusia semua ada baik dan buruknya.
Ada waktu kita bernasib indah, ada kala bernasib gundah
Ada tiba lancar urusan, ada juga tersangkut belaka.
Ada masa kita matang dalam berkata, ada kadang kita paling kebudak-budakan
Ada masa kita melangkah laju, ada pula masanya kita tersadung batu

Macam macam kan yang berlaku saban hari
Apa yang berlaku depan insan lain mencipta impresi.


Kalau baik kita pada pandangan orang,
Ketahuilah kelemahan kita belum hilang,
Cuma Allah yang Maha Baik tolong sorokkan.

Kalau buruk kita tersingkap buka,
Ketahuilah keburukan itu memang dah ada
Banyakkan istighfar dan doa moga Allah tutup aib kita di dunia dan akhirah
Dan moga kita mampu perbaiki diri.

Kalau kita lebih jujur,
Kita tanya "apa impresi di mata Tuhan"
Kalau baik di sisi Tuhan,
Insya Allah yang lain settle.

Quran

Allah's Messenger was already a human right activist [research Hilf ul Fudul - the Pact of Benefit]. 

This is proven through the statement of Khadija, who said to him; you help the orphan, oppressed, needy etc.
Allah's Messenger would wish that he could get rid of humanity's problems, because no matter how much he tried to support the oppressed - the corruption in society only increased. 

So Allah gave him a message which would provide a perfect guidance as a connection between Allah and His slave, and the perfect guidance between man and society.  

Rasulullah s.a.w had hardly any political power because he was an orphan, and his own uncles were his worst opponents, so even his powerful tribe could not support his message. All he was in the sight of people is that he is an honest businessman.So Allah tells him; Read with the Name of your Master. So the people know that you are not saying they are your own words.
