Makna Bacaan Dalam Solat

Allah Maha Besar

✿Doa Iftitah✿
Allah Maha Besar dan segala puji bagi Allah dengan banyaknya.
Maha suci Allah sepanjang pagi dan petang.
Aku hadapkan wajahku bagi Tuhan yang mencipta langit dan bumi,
dengan suasana lurus dan berserah diri dan aku bukan dari golongan orang musyrik.
Sesungguhnya solatku,
Ibadatku,
hidupku,
matiku
adalah untuk Allah Tuhan sekelian alam.
Tidak ada sekutu bagiNya dan kepadaku diperintahkan untuk tidak
menyekutukan bagiNya dan aku dari golongan orang Islam.

✿Al-Fatihah✿
Dengan nama Allah yang maha Pemurah lagi maha Mengasihani.
Segala puji bagi Allah, Tuhan semesta alam.
Yang maha pemurah lagi maha mengasihani.
Yang menguasai hari pembalasan.
Hanya Engkaulah yang kami sembah dan hanya kepada Engkau kami mohon pertolongan.
Tunjukilah kami jalan yang lurus.
Iaitu jalan orang-orang yang Engkau kurniakan nikmat kepada mereka, bukan jalan mereka yang Engkau murkai dan bukan jalan mereka yang sesat.

✿Bacaan ketika rukuk✿
Maha Suci TuhanKu Yang Maha Mulia dan dengan segala puji-pujiannya.

✿Bacaan ketika bangun dari rukuk✿
Allah mendengar pujian orang yang memujinya.

✿Bacaan ketika iktidal✿
Wahai Tuhan kami, bagi Engkaulah segala pujian.

✿Bacaan ketika sujud✿
Maha suci TuhanKu yang Maha Tinggi dan dengan segala puji-pujiannya.

✿Bacaan ketika duduk di antara dua sujud✿
Ya Allah, ampunilah daku,
Rahmatilah daku,
kayakan daku,
angkatlah darjatku,
rezekikan daku,
berilah aku hidayah,
sihatkanlah daku dan
maafkanlah akan daku.

✿Bacaan ketika Tahiyat Awal✿
Segala penghormatan yang berkat solat yang baik adalah untuk Allah.
Sejahtera atas engkau wahai Nabi dan rahmat Allah serta
keberkatannya.
Sejahtera ke atas kami dan atas hamba-hamba Allah yang soleh.
Aku naik saksi bahawa tiada Tuhan melainkan Allah dan aku naik saksi bahawasanya Muhammad itu adalah pesuruh Allah.
Ya Tuhan kami, selawatkanlah ke atas Nabi Muhammad.

✿Bacaan ketika Tahiyat Akhir✿
Segala penghormatan yang berkat solat yang baik adalah untuk Allah.
Sejahtera atas engkau wahai Nabi dan rahmat Allah serta keberkatannya.
Sejahtera ke atas kami dan atas hamba-hamba Allah yang soleh.
Aku naik saksi bahawa tiada Tuhan melainkan Allah dan aku naik saksi bahawasanya Muhammad itu adalah pesuruh Allah.
Ya Tuhan kami, selawatkanlah ke atas Nabi Muhammad dan ke atas keluarganya.
Sebagaimana Engkau selawatkan ke atas Ibrahim dan atas keluarga Ibrahim.
Berkatilah ke atas Muhammad dan atas keluarganya sebagaimana Engkau berkati ke atas Ibrahim dan atas keluarga Ibrahim di dalam alam ini.
Sesungguhnya Engkau Maha Terpuji lagi Maha Agung.

✿Doa Qunut✿
Ya Allah, berilah aku petunjuk sebagaimana orang-orang yang telah Engkau tunjuki.
Sejahterakanlah aku sebagaimana orang-orang yang telah Engkau sejahterakan.
Pimpinlah aku sebagaimana orang-orang yang telah Engkau pimpin.
Berkatilah hendaknya untukku apa-pa yang telah Engkau berikan padaku.
Jauhkanlah aku daripada segala kejahatan yang telah Engkau tetapkan.
Sesungguhnya hanya Engkau sahajalah yang menetapkan, dan tidak sesiapapun yang berkuasa menetapkan sesuatu selain daripada Engkau.
Sesungguhnya tidak terhina orang yang memperolehi pimpinanMu.
Dan tidak mulia orang-orang yang Engkau musuhi.
Telah memberi berkat Engkau, ya Tuhan kami dan maha tinggi Engkau.
Hanya untuk Engkau sahajalah segala macam puji terhadap apa-apa yang telah Engkau tetapkan.

Butterfly Rainbow Cupcakes Recipe

Last Thursday, saja suka2 try buat this butterfly rainbow cupcakes. Tapi tak sempat nk deco dengan buttercream and buat jadi butterfly. Anak dah 2 org, so sempat buat cupcakes pon dah naseb baik. Haha.
Dah lama teringin nk baking, now baru sempat since hubby tak keje so boley la tolong tgk kan anak2 kejap kan.  

Btw, nak buat cupcakes ni senang je. Yang I buat ni tak nampak rainbow sgt coz juz use 3 colors, green, yellow and red. And klau nak nmpak lagi cantik, sila pkai piping yer. I just use the spoon je taruk dlm cup tuh. Belasah je la as long as masuk dlm cup tuh. Hehe.


So here is the easy recipe, taken from here. Tengok tuan punyer recipe tu buat, sgt comel cupcake dia!! Nanti bley la nk buat for birthday party. :-)

Bahan-bahan:

1 1/2 cawan tepung gandum
2 s/k baking powder
Secubit garam
1/2 cawan butter - suhu bilik
3/4 cawan gula castor (kurangkan sikit klau tanak manis)
3 biji putih telur - suhu bilik
1 s/k esen vanilla
3/4 cawan susu segar - suhu bilik

* Panaskan oven pada suhu 170 degrees. Sediakan paper cup secukupnya dlm muffin tray

Cara-cara:

1. Ayakkan tepung gandum, baking powder dan garam. Ketepikan
2. Dalam bekas mixer, pukul butter dan gula sampai kembang dan gebu atau sehingga butter bertukar warna putih.
3. Masukkan putih telur dan pukul lagi sampai gebu dan ringan
4. Masukkan esen vanilla
5. Kemudian slowkan mixer yang paling perlahan sekali. Masukkan tepung berselang seli dengan susu segar. Atau boleh juga guna kaedah kaup balik guna spatula.

* tepung kena berselang seli dengan susu. Mulakan dengan masukkan tepung and diakhiri jugak dengan tepung. Maksudnya tepung ~ susu ~ tepung ~ susu ~ tepung

6. Kemudian bahagikan adunan sama banyak dlm 6 bekas berasingan. Letakkan pewarna dlm setiap bekas dan gaul rata.
7. Tompokkan setompok setompok warna berlainan warna dan berselang seli dalam paper cup. Buat sehingga adunan habis.

L'Oreal Youth Code Review

I'm using this L'Oreal Youth Code for about a month plus now. I just want to give it a try since I read a lot of good reviews about it in some of the top bloggers' blog. I wonder if they are telling the truth or just write a very nice review since they were paid for it. Haha.

So, I got myself a bottle of this L'Oreal at Guardian for RM89.90. This L'Oreal Youth Code is actually pre-essence where we need to use it after the toner and before your essence and moisturizer. As my Clarins essence already finished, so I just use the toner, then this L'Oreal Youth Code then my moisturizer. 

After a month of using it, all I can say is I love this pre-essence so much. I love the smell and it absorbs very fast into my skin. So, I didn't feel oily at all. And I can see my skin a bit brighter than before. I still have my uneven skin tone, but it is not as obvious as before, so I guess it evens out the skin tone. Wrinkles? I don't know about that. But my skin feels soft and smooth right after I'm using it. I really recommend for others to try this out. 



p/s: Some reviews even said they can see the difference right after the first use. So give it a try ladies~

My Son's Bedroom

Pejam celik pejam celik dah 2 tahun kiteorg berpindah kat rumah sendiri. Dari rumah yang kosong, sekarang Alhamdulillah hampir penuh dah umah. Masa awal-awal pindah, yang ada just meja makan, queen bed set, one wardrobe, three chest drawers and one tv. No sofa, no built-in wardrobe, no kitchen cabinet and even no new curtains for the first few months. 

Now, Alhamdulillah semua dah ada. Yang tinggal just bilik Arsyad yg still kosong, just penuh dgn toys. Eventho hubby dah lama ajak beli his bedroom set, but I still want to wait till Arsyad is big enuff so that he will be sleeping in his own room bila semua dh lengkap. 

I still don't know how to decorate his room. I want it to be colourful and so fun to look at. I want him to love his own room. Everytime I went to Ikea, I always imagine myself decorating his room with all the colorful bedroom set. But all of that costs a lot. Have to buy one by one la jwbnye, baru tak rasa sgt kan duit mengalir. Hehe.

Teringin sgt nk bilik mcm ni. Masa kecik dulu tak dpt bilik best camni, now bley berangan buat kat anak plak kan.. :-)

Cute je kan Mammut nye furnitures ni..

Ni pon nice..





Ape pon kene cat bilik Arsyad dulu. Hehe.

Maybelline B.B Cream Review

I bought Cleo mini magazine last friday and got free Maybelline B.B Cream sample. I just tried it yesterday, and all I can say is I didn't like it too much. It makes my skin look darker and oily. I still prefer using my Mary Kay foundation instead of this BB cream. 




BB cream actually stands for "Blemish Balm". And it is one of the hottest trends in makeup and skin care right now. I'm sure most of you makeup frenzy girls must have been familiar with what BB cream is all about. But for those who doesn't know, the main function of BB cream is as moisturizer, primer, light foundation or like a tinted moisturizer for your skin. You apply it on your face after your skin care routine.

This Maybelline BB cream claims that it can help to create a flawless smooth skin and brighten your face. It also have skin care formula so when we used it for a continuous length of time it can result in a much more healthy and attractive skin. 

I love it when I first saw the difference on my skin right after I'm using it. But, after few hours, my skin become darker and oily. I didn't apply any loose powder, just the BB cream itself after my skin care routine. It is good as it has sunblock protection, but it just didn't work for me. Maybe other BB cream works well, but for the time being I would not buy this one anymore. Maybe it works well for you. Just buy the Cleo mini magazine for RM5 to get the free sample. :-)

2 Months Old Farrel

Sungguh cepat masa berlalu. Tup tup Farrel dah pon 2 bulan. Alhamdulillah, I still fully breastfeeding him, but didn't manage to start cloth diapering him yet. InsyaAllah I'll give it a try starting tomorrow. Hopefully I can do it as Farrel didn't poo-poo too much like a newborn anymore.

So far, taking care of Farrel is easy. He didn't cry so much, in fact I just can hear him cry sometimes only once a day. And that is just because I didn't give him milk immediately once he asked for it. Usually he just make a sound if he is hungry. While at night sometimes he just asked for milk once, and sometimes he will just sleep till the next morning. He didn't ask for milk once in 2 hours time like Arsyad when he was a baby. Alhamdulillah, I can get enough sleep at night and have enough energy to entertain my 3 years old son on the next day.

Farrel can response when people talking to him now. He will easily giggle and smile everytime we talk to him. He loves to see everything spinning and moving above him, something with bright colors of coz. He can't fit in his newborn clothes anymore. His weight now is 5.3kg and height 59cm. 100gram heavier and also 3cm longer than Arsyad when he was 2 months old. 

 before kene cucuk cool aje..hehe

 tembamnye saya..

tertido after shower.. :-)

p/s: I wish I can update more about Farrel and Arsyad. Hurm~

Junior Masterchef..

Since I have two kids, I always start my day as early as possible. Most of the time I'll wake up earlier than both of them, so that I can finish up my chores. Only then I can entertain them 100 percent. If not, I have to rush out to finish up my house chores then at the same time have to look after them, especially Arsyad coz he always want to disturb his little brother. Alhamdulillah Farrel will not cry out even his big brother always disturb him while he is sleeping. So it makes my life easier. It is just that I have to watch out, afraid if Arsyad did something that can hurt his lil brother.

As today I woke up a bit late, so I was a bit behind my routine. After Arsyad and Farrel had their shower, I have to do the laundry and then prepared breakfast for me and Arsyad. And breastfed Farrel in between. Then have to entertain Arsyad, playing with his toys, helping him finish up his puzzle and lots more. And today also I didn't manage to prepare lunch on time. I just had my lunch around 3 pm. A bit late and I was so damn hungry. Mind you, I am fully breastfeeding, so I need to eat a lot and on time. If not, I'll feel dizzy.

While preparing my lunch, Arsyad was voluntarily helping me out in the kitchen. Actually I am more grateful if he just ignored me and help himself playing and watching Barney. Haha. But what can I do. He insisted to help me by making the mess. He did help me by cutting the vegetables that I gave him. Then he put it all in the pan that full of oil, which I will use it to fry the chicken. I just let him do what he wants. He then get himself a spatula then started stirring the veges. I did give him an empty pan, but he didn't want to use it coz he knew I will not use it to cook my meal. Clever boy huh~ 

potong sayur mcm mama buat.. tp last2 1 batang tu trus masukkan dlm pan..haha

I didn't manage to snap any pictures while he did that, worried if he wants to go near the fire. I know he enjoyed himself helping me cooking in the kitchen but I can't let him do that everyday coz I can't stand looking at all the mess. Haha. He also love to bake. Everytime I started my mixer, he will stand on his stool and helping me by putting all the ingredients in the bowl then start the mixer. I think he likes to see the bowl spinning around. Haha.

You want to be a Junior Masterchef yer Arsyad? I will teach you how to cook once you know how to play with your little brother kay. Hehe.
