Kemamam 27th October

I was pretty bored for the first 2 days of the recent long holiday. My hubby was busy with his NGO work, so we were unable to go away from Kuantan. However we made short trip away to Kuantan on the last day of the weekend stretch holiday. We went to Kemaman. The weather was pretty hot, so we were unable to go to the beaches. Instead we went shopping....entahlah shopping apa2 entahnya. We went to the new Mesra Mall, however we were quite disappointed as there were not many shops as we expected. But the kids really had a good time!!!

Yang belum kunjung tiba

Has been left with one car, since the one that has been promised to arrive last week, has not been arriving yet...........After 10 years of working, need to reward myself once in a while. Hopefully it is a good choice, insyaAllah.

Update...
At last tiba on the 24th October 2008, after 2+ weeks of promise....so far quite happy with the car. Already went to Kemaman with my MIL, SIL, her husband and their 4 kids...ha ha ha...boleh muat 5 dewasa and 4 kids, not too bad. Will be going to Sg Petani at the end of November. So far can beat our old Mitsubishi Space Wagon in terms of spacing...someone wonder why we need such a big car for a small family like us....the answer is because we are always travelling with others, be it my mother, MIL, sisters or brothers....the more the merrier. Last year we have travelled with my mother, sister and her hubby to Cameron Highland, and 2 years ago, we travelled all the way to Penang, Kedah and Langkawi, again with my mother and sister. That's why we need a spacious car. Furthermore I like to lie down with my daughter when we are travelling alone, very comfy, can sleep like a baby....

Cupping for gout

Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with them both) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Healing is to be found in three things: drinking honey, the knife of the cupper, and cauterization of fire.” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 10/136).

According to a hadeeth narrated by Jaabir (may Allaah be pleased with him), the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “If there is any good in your medical treatments, it is in the knife of the cupper, drinking honey, or cauterization with fire, as appropriate to the cause of the illness, but I would not like to be cauterized.” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 10/139)

Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with them both) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was treated with cupping, and he paid the cupper his fee.” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 10/124; Muslim 1202).

Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allaah was treated with cupping by Abu Tayyibah. He commanded that he should be given two measures of food, and he spoke with his tax-collectors, who reduced his taxes. He said, “The best treatment you can use is cupping.” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 10/126; Muslim, 1577)
