SOLAT vs USTAZ/SHEIKH/TOK GURU

1. Orang yang tidak solat akan banyak masalah, tidak tenang, cepat marah, susah hendak terima kenyataan dan selalu nampak salah orang lain.
- Ustaz Azhar Idrus

2. Walaupun ayah kita penagih dadah sekalipun, bila dia menyuruh kita solat, kita sebagai anak WAJIB tunaikannya.
- Ustaz Kazim Elias

3. Tidak solat punca utama penceraian dalam rumahtangga? "Jaga solat...Insyallah bahagia..."
- Ustaz Don Daniyal

4. Selalulah solat berjemaah walau payah macam mana pun, boleh jadi jemaah itu dapat menampung pahala berlipat ganda.
- Datuk Ismail Kamus

5.Kalau kita sakit jangan takut untuk solat, sekurang-kurangnya kalau kita mati, mati dalam solat.
- Ustaz Haslin Baharin

6. Selepas solat jangan tergesa-gesa, baca Subhanallah 33, Alhamdulillah 33, Allahuakbar 33, doa kemudian baru bangun”
- Al-Habib Ali Zainal

7. Kalau orang yang solat pun belum tentu masuk Syurga, apatah lagi orang yang meninggalkannya.
-TG Syeikh Nuruddin Marbu Al-Banjari Al-Makki

8. Jagalah solat anda. Kerana solat itu adalah hubungan antara Allah dengan hambaNya"
- Sheikh Abdullah Jahaf

9. Menjaga solat boleh membersihkan dalaman kita. Puasa juga boleh membersihkan jiwa seseorang.
-Ustaz Dasuki Rani

10. Walau sibuk macamana sekalipun kita, jangan tinggalkan solat. Sebab ia merupakan amalan pertama yg di hisab oleh Allah SWT. Klu sempurna solat kita maka hisaban amalan yg lain lebih mudah. Jika rosak solat kita, amalan lain tidak dapat menampung kekurangan solat kita
-Dr. Saifuddin Md. Rasip

11. Jgn cakap:"Pergi solat.Kalau tak,masuk api neraka!"
Tapi cakap:"Jom solat,Nanti kita masuk SYURGA ALLAH sama2 ya.InsyaAllah"
- TG Harun Din

12. Kalau dalam solat tidak dapat ingat Allah, mana mungkin luar solat mampu ingat Allah.
-Ustaz Pahrol

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DIDI

Eggless Moist Banana Brownies

T.H.E R.A.M.B.L.I.N.G.S

My my....the weather today is just soooo nice today! Nice as in raining the whole day and making all eyes so droopy. It is supposed to be the best time to snuggle in bed, with a book in your hand, or just turned on the television. And after like less than 10 minutes, it will be either the book's reading you or the television's watching you. Hahaha...

But hey, I am quite impressed with myself! I was as busy as Mrs Bee since I opened my eyes in the morning. When hubby left for work, as early as 6.15am (the office is not that far but he went early to avoid the traffic jam and also to secure a parking place), I began to make these...

While waiting for the buns to bake, I tried baking the brownies that I had eyed at Along Roz's blog. And at the same time, I was busy taking photos and whatsapping a friend and a few family members and made their lives miserable with the photos I took. Hahaha... sorry you gals, I meant well okay. Take it as a MOTIVATION and not TORTURE okay, Nora, Mak Chu and Ibu Nor! Hahaha.. love you gals... muaahhhh....

Note to Along Roz : ... how come my brownies doesn't look as nice as yours? Huwaaaaaa... huwaaaaa.....

Brownies for Jid

Assalamualaikum to all you lovely people out there...

Hmmm... shall I say, it's good to be back online? I think I should not say that because I am not so sure for how long I will be 'back on air' this time. Though I have quite a number of reasons why I should be back, but all narrowed down to the word L.A.Z.Y, hence the 'blog full of cobwebs'!!!

Not only I am lazy to update my blogs, but I was lazy to turn on my laptop. And to make things worst, I am even lazy to turn on my oven. My oven, my mixer and all my baking stuffs are having such a wonderful vacation I guess! Hahahahaha....

What have I been doing all these while? What else.... besides doing the housework, I spent most of my time reading... mmmm that's another story as well. Though I've read quite a number of books, there is also NO updates in my other blog.

So to conclude.... i will blame it on L.A.Z.Y... hehehe....

Anyway, these were the latest 'products' from my lukewarm kitchen. Thanks to Jid for making my oven warm again... hope you are happy with the brownies.

Till then, have a nice weekend!!

p/s : MAK CHU.... dah dah.. tak yahlah nak cekak pinggang lagi. Mama dah update blog dah ni... :P

Thank you Aswani

Jumaa Mubarak to all my lovely visitors...

No recipe for this entry, just a word of thanks to Aswani for her orders yesterday, after a while not taking any orders... I hope she is happy. And thank you to her dear hubby for receiving the goods on her behalf. Mama jual dan mama minta halal ye Aswani.

Thousand apologies!

I realised that I've been neglecting my own blog for way too long. But I really don't have a choice. I had not tried any new recipes for like ages! I don't know where my baking mood's been hiding of late. But thanks to Badariah and Hanita for helping me to at least summon back my baking mood.

Thanks to Badariah for the order.

Thanks to Hanita for her repeat orders. Normally by the time I am done with Hanita's orders, if I were a kindergarden child, I would have mastered my alphabets! Hahahaha...

Made this for Saerah and her family

Thanks to Maz, the proud owner of Ilhamdapur dot Blogspot dot Com for the lovely gift all the way from Bahrain.

It had been a week since I deactivated my Facebook account. To be honest, I don't miss anything, except for the circle of friends that I had made along the way. I really missed all the chats and jokes plus all the kind comments, not to mention sometimes, very funny that brought smile to my face. To name a few, Kak Wan Nita, Kak Halimah Awang, Fadzlina, Oshin Nana, Aida Abdullah, IdaB4C and many many more. To all, thank you very much for making my Facebook's wall cheerful and full of colors!

I admit, Mr Ben Ashaari, I got carried away from my main purpose of registering for Facebook. Very sorry Inspector Sahab! Tabik datuk!. A week without facebook :

• leaves me with 3 tall empty laundry baskets! All nicely folded, ironed and arranged in the cupboard! I spent the week ironing my heart out and I'm loving it!
• I managed to update my blog more often
• I don't really have the urge to snap the photo of each and everything that I had cooked
• less emails to be deleted from the mailbox
• not glued to the chair infront of the laptop

So I guess, I'll stay that way for the time being. What's more, I think I've exposed myself too much and that's not quite a good sign. Who knows, my licence to blog will be revoked and I surely won't like that to happen. So yes, let mamafami take a rest....

...rest in peace mama... erkk??!!

Best Brownies (Angie)

First and foremost, a HAPPY BELATED TEACHER'S DAY to all teachers in this world...

Helped my cousin to make these cards for the teachers in her school. Actually she had asked me to google for nice wordings to be pasted on the teacher's day card she intended to do. I ended up helping her do the card instead of looking for the wordings! Hahaha... It was fun making the cards for you kak... after a long time not having the chance to play around with art. And this is my signature at the back of the card, copyright controlled..... *wink*

Last Monday, I thought of updating my blog, for the teacher's day entry, soon as I've finished doing the orders that came from ANZ, but then I got a sad news from hubby's family. One of his cousin, a former teacher, passed away. Datin Hajjah Aminah Zakaria passed away at the age of 49 after bravely fighting with the final stage cancer. May her soul rest in peace. Al-Fatihah.

I am not going to write much today. My list-to-do is still very long. So I will go straight to the recipe to share. Made these brownies for Syahmi's teachers. Besides the brownies, I had packed a chocolate chip muffin as well in the box. Thank you to all the teachers who had kindly taught my son. May all of you be blessed....

Thank you to Angie from Allrecipes for the recipe. I made a few adjustments to the recipe to suit my taste.

Chocolate Brownies

It's not always whatever we planned will turn out the way it should be. Sometimes the result will be much better than expected but otherwise, a disastor! Good if it turned out great but if it's disastrous, then you have to think fast and be extra creative to cover the failure, if it's possible that is! Hahaha... Speaking of failure, a few weeks ago, I, for the very first time, tried using my brownies tray with cutters which I had bought quite sometime back. And using a new recipe without reading the feedback about the recipe. My brownies overflowed from the tray, not that much though but since it had rised quite a bit, so the cutters were 'buried' in the brownies. It was a job to take out the cutters, resulting to a tray of broken brownies...err can we even call it brownies? I doubt it... hahahaha...

To make things worse, I had done the brownies for my mom's visitors, our neighbour when we were very young. Aunty Asbah came with her daughter who is the same age as me and happens to be my school mate. When they arrived, I was busy in the kitchen, having a hard time handling the brownies. Managed to get a few pieces of so-called-brownies and the rest... huhuhu... undescribable! I served the few not-so-bad-looking-brownies and start thinking of what to do with the rest. Alhamdulillah, something popped in my mind and I ended up with these....

..........not bad huh??!!! Mind you, it's not the recipe to be blamed, but me, who doesn't study properly how to use the cutters.....

Well, that pleasant failure doesn't put me off. I still have the guts to try out another brownies recipe. But this time, I used the recipe recommended by Mak Lang . Thank you Mak Lang for your continuous encouragement and support. May Allah bless you....

Made this brownies for Azlina. Thank you Lin for ordering with me. I am much relieved when Lin is satisfied with the brownies... Alhamdulillah....
