Night Safari-Zoo Taiping



on the third raya night, we visited Night Zoo Taiping.  Actually this was first visit to the Zoo Taiping.  Unexpected, very crowded and long line-up to bord tram to ferry us around the Zoo.


Actually, nothing much we could see at night, unlike Singapore Night Safari, only animal active at night were displayed whereas, Taiping Zoo, still maintain the same animals but the diffrence only they put spot light at every cage and ground of animals.


Ticket was cost RM16 for adult and RM10 for kid.  I like tha zoo landscape, wish to come again in future in day time.

Ziarah-Kubur

Adakah boleh menziarahi kuburan pada hari raya

Soalan :

Ramai di kalangan muslim yang berebut untuk ke kuburan sebaik sahaja selesai solat sunat Eidulfitri. Apa pandangan islam mengenai ziarah tersebut?



Bismillahirrahmanirrahim..

Selawat dan salam atas Junjungan Besar Rasulullah Sallahua’alaihiwasallam..

Ziarah kubur pada asalnya adalah sunnah nabi kerana ia mengingatkan manusia mengingati hari akhirat. Di dalam riwayat Muslim, daripada Abu Hurairah menceritakan : Bahawa Nabi Muhammad Sallahu’alaihiwasallam melawat kubur ibunya, lalu menitiskan air mata dan orang berada disekelilingnya menangis. Kemudian baginda bersabda : ”Aku memohon keizinan kepada Tuhanku agar diampuni dosanya, tetapi tidak mengizinkan. Maka aku memohon izin agar dapat aku melawat kuburan, maka diizinkan. Maka itu, ziarahilah kuburan, sesungguhnya ia boleh mengingatkan kepada kamu kepada kematian”.

Manakala, didalam riwayat Ibn Majah pula dengan sanad yang sahih, Nabi bersabda ”Aku dahulu menyuruh umatku menziarahi kubur. Maka, sekarang ziarahilah, sesungguhnya ia dapat menjadikan engkau zuhud di dunia dan mengingatkan mu tentang hari akhirat”.

Menziarahi kubur tidak terhad kepada masa-masa yang tertentu walaupun ada sebahagian ulama yang pernah menyatakan pahala yang lebih besar menziarahi kuburan pada hari tertentu seperti hari khamis dan jumaat. Oleh itu, walaupun dalilnya tidak kuat, disini kita dapat tahu bahawa ziarah manusia itu perlu apabila ia masih lagi memberikan pengajaran dan peringatan terhadap kita.

Mother Earth Strucked Sumatera Island Again...

Karishma Vaswani, BBC News, Padang

As every hour passes, the scale of this disaster becomes all too clear. Dozens of homes and office buildings have collapsed. A restaurant frequented by college students is now a pile of rubble. Officials say at least 60 people are trapped underneath.
Scenes like this are repeated all across Padang. Rescue efforts have been hampered by poor communication lines and bad roads.
The first flights carrying food and aid arrived this morning but it's nowhere near enough. Hospitals in Padang have been severely damaged in this disaster.
People are being treated in makeshift tents. There are still many parts of the city that rescue workers haven't been able to reach which is raising fears the number of dead will almost certainly rise.

Fire Work & Fire Cracker

Bermaaf-maafan


Selamat Hari Raya Adil Fitri from us to all our family members.  This year we celebrated Ed-Al-Mubarak at Ijuk, Selama, Perak.  This is Atuk Mama's Kampung...Since Atok Wah still healthy then this is the place where we have annual yearly gathering.  Unlike last Hari Raya..the committee member had decided to differ  Md Desa Family Day due to financial and time constraint.

Well as usual, we have a good time..and wishing everybody selamat hari raya and gave our hand, asking forgiveness and extended Raya packets to kids and elderly.  Thanks Atuk Wan for your hospitality and provided us lodging as well good food....
