The Whispers of Kelantan Beach

Kelantan Seashore

Seashell Anyone?

"Come on, try read this phrase with me : "She.sell.sea.shell.at.sea.shore". This is what my tuition teacher taught yesterday." Linda is talking with my friend Ah Meng.

Ah Meng take deep breath and spill it out : "SHE SHHH SEA SHHEEE AT SEA SHORRR !!!"

My friends was laughing at his bravery and pronunciation back in school times. Every chinese students learn to be multilingual learner with Malaysia's environment, which is Mother tongue language, Chinese Language, Malay and English. The challenges to achieve the level of multilingual may twist our tongue and brain most of the time.

As time goes by, I realized that language is a bridge to connect with more people and community. Most importantly I found the trace and connection of Islam from different source within my recognize of languages. Among different cultural and language I have found a clear path towards Allah (The Glorified and the Exalted).


A straight path that breakthrough cultural diversity and race relations.



Seashore At Kelantan

I was having a Kelantan trip with my family last week. We was staying at Permai Beach Resort that held up along seaside. I was enjoying the breeze and nature of seashore with my family, the melody from sea waves, cute living seashells and mini crab. It did calm my heart.

I am living my own life path. Being so different with others and I'm not ashamed with my choice.
Tons of pressure crumble me down, tears and sweat mixed in my heart, I chosen that Islam is my life path. I do have my reason to live this will towards Islam, regardless of whatever accuse like "Malay Black Magic" or "forgotten my Chinese root". I found the beauty of Islam from the nature, one day I will be back to the
nature as well.

When the world have abandoned me, Allah The Most Merciful always with me.
Every time when I'm strike down, He is the reason I'm standing up to go on with my life.

"Those who have believed and whose hearts are assured by the remembrance of Allah . Unquestionably, by the remembrance of Allah hearts are assured."

(Surat Ar-Ra`d (The Thunder) 13:28 )

The Origin Of Life

Charles Darwin is convincing everyone that the origin of human is from "Monkey". Till now scientist is still love to play this "Monkey Business" with audience. Please bear in mind that none of the scientific theory standing firm forever. It based on assumption and research, then it's testified as someone's theory until the "next big thing" collapse it.

Non Muslim are frustrated with the reaction of muslim against Evolution Theory. It caused misunderstood that Islam is against Science theory and brilliant development by researchers. However the truth can be very simple, God shouldn't be any idols that made up by humans with stones or anything on earth.

This would make sense because God isn't creature like anyone or anything of us. He is Creator who creates, not being created. As stated in al-Quran :

"Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing? Then will they not believe?"
(Surat Al-'Anbyā' (The Prophets) 21:30)

"[He] who created death and life to test you [as to] which of you is best in deed - and He is the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving."
(Surat Al-Mulk (The Sovereignty) 67:2 )

"That is Allah , your Lord; there is no deity except Him, the Creator of all things, so worship Him. And He is Disposer of all things."
(Surat Al-'An`ām (The Cattle) 6:102 )

As Creator, He is fully understand the formation of every creations. Especially when al-Quran the word of God mentioned about the origin of mankind, it would make no sense if there are scientist trying to reject the word of God but delude themselves.

Mr. Green and Miss Blue

  
Have you ever wonder why our skin color isn't in Blue color like Avatar? Or Green color like Shrek? Isn't it looks cool? Think again, have you ever read al-Quran verse about mankind is created by God from dust?

"Indeed, the example of Jesus to Allah is like that of Adam. He created Him from dust; then He said to him, "Be," and he was."
(al-Quran : Surat 'Āli `Imrān (Family of Imran) 3:59)

I'm pretty sure you know the color of Dust. Allah SWT mentioned about dust in al-Quran do have His highest knowledge about mankind. Although we can't understand how mankind was formed with our limited knowledge, we still can see the sign of God from our skin color. Which narrated in hadith below:

Abi Musa al Sha'arai narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Allah created Adam from a handful of dust taken from different lands, so the children of Adam have been created according to the composition of the land. Therefore from mankind we have white, red, black and yellow ones; we have good and evil, ease and sorrow, and what comes in between them." 
(Sahih al Bukhari).


Think about dust, you will have a different viewpoint about mankind.


Crab's Home, Do Not Disturb !

When I was stepping on the seashore, I found out there were lots of tiny sand balls.
It feel so soft that it seems like Mini Snowball. Then my wife told me that's the artworks by little crabs. Its using both hands to dig his home patiently (Imagine that!) Yeah, their cute hands create these sand balls. Who knows they playing sandball fight as well.

This is the full maps of crab city.
They do make roads to visit each others?

The Mini crab we found at seashore. Looks cute and amazing.


Opps... Please Lower Your Gaze ~

My friend visited Aksu town, Xinjiang province at China.
One day they decided to swim at river and took off their shirts. Their act really scaring local Uyghur muslimah away...


Actually their reactions reflect one of the al-Quran verse :

"And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts...."
(Surat An-Nūr (The Light) 24:31 )

China Muslimah is telling us a important reminders, please lower your gaze wherever you go... : )




Listen carefully to the whisper of God
