Thursday, August 27, 2009. Funny (maybe not so) encounters. I was on my way back to KLIA from Langkawi the other day. I sat next to this nice English family (I was hoping for a scottish accent but alas.)of five- the blonde father, the brunnete mother, two blonde sons and one brunnete daughter. I sat next to the mother who was really friendly. She gave me the 'too bad sucker' look and simply said, "tak boleh". Oh right being me, I decided to take out this frustration because not only I just travelled by c...

Saturday, April 16, 2011. Death and Dying Revisited.Steps to Jannah. Just yesterday I met my most esteemed more senior colleague of mine, along the long corridor of Sime darby medical Centre. He has cancer of the kidney for over two years now. Still surviving well on state of the art targeted chemotherapy! For the life of me, I have never experience such remorse and I doubt many do.

http://drnikisahak.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-horse-whisperer.html
Friday, November 14, 2014. The International Equestrian Federation’s judicial committee has cleared all parties from blame for the deaths of two endurance horses at last year’s World Equestrian Games in Jerez. In a carefully worded statement, the FEI says that both horses, the French-owned Floyd and Spanish horse Sir Fire, died because of a multi-systemic failure. The full statement of the judicial committee is to be published shortly. I was rummaging through the internet just now looking at the goings o...

Pearls & Gem: June 2008
http://drnikisahak.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 24, 2008. Pearls and Gem from Surah Ad Dhuha [Letter 99 :Verses 1 to 4]. The phrase 'Insyaallah'or 'If Allah will' or 'God willing' is a phraseology most often used in the Arab world .Too much use that it become abused ."can I see you at 2 in your office? In Saudi Arabia can mean you will be waiting to see the official at 2 pm everyday for the next week or so! Of course in Malaysia this can get worse ." Will you come to my kenduri on Sunday? That in essence is the meaning of 'insyaallah '.

At least I could do something as a minor leader of a Muslim student movement in the face of a strong and convincing Socialist Internationale.
