" If we are not prepared to work hard for ourselves, then we deserve to be left behind." ~ Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad...

Sabda Nabi S.A.W: "Umat akhir zaman akan ditimpa penyakit “wahan” yang menyebabkan Allah cabut kehebatan Islam dalam hati. " Apa itu "wahan"?" tanya sahabat. Jawab Baginda: “Cintakan dunia dan takut mati!”...

Daripada Aisyah bahawa Rasulullah bersabda: "Melihat pada tiga perkara adalah ibadah. Melihat wajah ibu bapa, melihat Al-Quran dan melihat lautan." - (Riwayat Abu Nuaim) dan ditambah dengan "Melihat Ka'abah". - (Riwayat Abu Daud)...

"We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too." ~ President John F. Kennedy, September 12, 1962

Biometric Enrolment...

As part of applying extended UK visa, I have to provide the United Kingdom Border Agency (UKBA) with my biometric information (fingerprints and photograph). So I went to Derby Biometric Enrolment Centre, 2nd Floor, Stuart House, Green Lane, Derby, DE1 1RS this morning. As my appointment is at 11:10 am, but I arrived there early because of predicted snow fall therefore drove there slowly. Upon arrival at 10:00 am, the receptionist says that I was too early. It didn't matter as I am willing to wait there till my appointment. Then she says, "Ok, Mr. Ismail, due to today is not a very busy day, we'll push your appointment to an earlier slot". By 10:30 am, all is done.

Now have to wait another 3-4 weeks for the visa application to complete...
