The reason for this sudden topic was because there was this donation thing that came yesterday in the mail. it was meant for my brother, but since he hasn't been home, we've helped check the mail. so.. there's this child who's almost blind. and they were asking for a donation. i wish we had the money for these people. but for us, we have enough to keep ourselves healthy and enough for the family to live with little problems. Every year, we, as muslims have to give zakat and whenever i follow my parents to darul arqam, i always pray that one day, i'll be able to earn enough to give what i can. but not only during the ramadhan period that you should give zakat. everywhere you go, give. give give give. i see so many elderly selling tissue packets, singing music at the underground tunnel. it's always these people that make me want to help even more. my family, we try to give when we can.

besides charity, i was asking my mum if i should send my child to a madrasah in future. hahaha. i always talk to my mum about this. seems that the influence is so strong already, i'm afraid that my child would turn out the same. like my mum said, a madrasah wouldn't gurantee that my child would be religious and all. but at least, he/she would be barred away from what we have today. it's not a confinement or a racist thing. i don't mind hanging out with friends of different races or religions. in fact, i have friends from all the different races and religions in singapore. but at least, in a madrasah, religion is more concentrated on.

as many of us may know already, signs on the day of judgement are already showing. thus my reason.

okay. i guess that's all i wanted to say. :p

PS: i dreamt s'pore had war with another country(not mentioning any) this morning. =.= and i dreamt my brother was called on for war. !! God forbid, unless for jihad.

salam.
