Namun kata-kata Prof sangat menyenangkan.
"Kita ambil macam ni.
Terima kasih Prof.

Bila? Bagaimana?
Ketika dia pergi, dia keseorangan.
Si ibu tua menghembus nafas terakhir di rumah anak yang mengambil giliran menjaganya.
Si anak keluar sebentar untuk ke kedai.
Si ibu tua memanggil-manggil cucu, barangkali ingin meminta sesuatu, atau mungkin untuk mengadu.
Sangka cucu, panggilan yang seperti biasa, tak ada apa-apa yang kritikal sangat.
Panggilan nenek tidak diendahkan.
Suatu tempoh senyap.
Disangka si ibu tua tertidur.
Tapi kali ni nampak tidurnya lain sedikit.
Doktor dipanggil.
Hanya akhirnya doktor mengesahkan kematian.
Sakit tua.
Sesungguhnya segala-gala adalah milik Allah dan kepada-Nya kita kembali
Terdetik.
Bilakah masaku?
Bagaimana?
Di mana?
Bila?
Bila?
Terbaca petikan artikel majalah Solusi isu 25:
'...jadikanlah dunia umpama jambatan yang kita lalui. pastikan ia teguh, kukuh... tetapi bukan untuk berlama-lama di situ... ia hanya jambatan. tidak ada orang yang membina rumah di atas jambatan. rumah kita yang hakiki adalah di dalam syurga...'
Banyak sekali lagu-lagu cinta meluahkan segala janji setia, menunggu di pintu syurga.
Soalannya, berapa pasti dapat sampai ke pintu syurga?
Aku sering lalai.
Aku ingin mati dalam cinta yang benar.
Amin, Ya Rabb...

Time Crisis is So Real
the problem with such blockbuster game is that, gamers really enjoy playing that one game, they tend to stick to that game for quite some time to the point of not needing to purchase another game for months. this will create a drop in sales of the other game titles launched after that.
this problem can be related to the economic term ‘opportunity cost’. a simple definition of opportunity cost is; the cost of passing up the next best choice when making a decision. any gamer only has a certain amount hours each day to spend on playing games. he will have to decide which game that will give him the most enjoyment and satisfaction. after the decision is made, he plays that game at the expense of not playing the other games in that period. in the case of a really awesome game, people really enjoy the benefit (read: fun) of playing that game, that they do not mind sacrificing the experience of playing another game.
Like any other activity (or inactivity) that we do everyday, we are doing it at the cost of the the next best alternative activity (and its benefits).

Allah: The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful, The Most Just
For some obvious reasons, it differs from the Gregorian calendar; the internationally accepted civil calendar.
Hijri calendar concurs with the orbit of the Moon around the Earth. A complete Hijri year is the period of 12 orbits of the Moon around the Earth.
On the other hand, Gregorian calendar concurs with the orbit of the Earth around the Sun. A complete Greagorian year is the period of an orbit of the Earth around the Sun (more specifically, the time between vernal equinoxes).
Due to this difference, a Hijri calendar is not synchronised with the four seasons, unlike the Gregorian calendar. Every year, a Hijri date drifts 10 to 12 days from the Gregorian calendar. Seasonal relation to Hijri calendar repeats about every 33 years.
Muslims are commanded to fast (the 4th pillar of Islam) in the month of Ramadhan (the 9th month).
A simple description of a fast is to abstain from food, drink and sinful deeds from dawn to sunset.
This also means that, in a given year, if Ramadhan falls in winter or summer, people in the northern hemisphere observe a different fasting period from those in the southern hemisphere, due to the difference in the total hours of daytime.
For example, in a given year, if Ramadhan falls in June, it is summer in the United Kingdom, but winter in New Zealand. People living in the UK will experience a longer daily fasting period than those living in New Zealand. Unfair? Not really.
Remember that each year, a Hijri date drifts 10 to 12 days in relation to Earth's seasons. In the long run, there will be a year when Ramadhan falls during winter in the UK, and summer in the New Zealand!
Truly, Allah is The Most Just.
