Disappointed

I am largely disappointed by the recently concluded Umno General Assembly.

Maybe I was expecting too much because Tan Sri Muhyiddin's speech gave me hope.

I should have known better.

On one hand we have a bunch of clueless self-serving nincompoops, on the other a bunch of conceited pretentious egomaniacs.

What choice do the ordinary people have now?

Any wonder why most thinking people are simply fed up with the political situation, and would rather ignore the whole lot of them if it hadn't meant leaving the country to the dogs.

Thank God for the ordinary antics of my little nephews and niece that have kept me busy and entertained.

Oh yeah, my (adult) nieces are now here visiting and we are planning to eat out.



I was thinking of taking them to Alamanda for lunch and maybe some retail therapy, then maybe on to Mydin or Tesco to stock up on stationery for the upcoming school year (they are teachers).

Politicians?  Hah ... I have officially given up on them.

They all can continue on their merry ways for all I care, so long as they make sure public facilities are maintained and taken care of.

As for the MB of Selangor, his 100 days are almost up and it is almost end of the year and we'll see how he has performed.

  2. * It has been narrated by Abu Musa who said: Two of my cousins and I entered the apartment of the Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him). One of them said: Oh Messenger of Allah, appoint us rulers of some lands that the Almighty and Glorious Lord has entrusted to your care. The other also said something similar. He (s.a.w) replied: "We do not appoint to this position one who asks for it nor anyone who is covetous for it."

    *It has been reported on the authority of 'Abd al-Rahman b. Samura who said: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said to me: "Abd al-Rahman, do not ask for a position of authority, for if you are granted this position as a result of your request, you will be left alone (without God's help to discharge your responsibilities), but if you are granted the position without requesting for it, then you will be assisted (by God in your duties).

    *It has been narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Umar that the Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him) said: Take heed! every one of you is a shepherd and every one is answerable for his flock. The Caliph is a shepherd over the people and shall be questioned about his subjects (as to how he conducted their affairs). A man is a guardian over his family members and shall be questioned about them (as to how he nurtured their physical and moral well-being). A woman is a guardian over the household of her husband and his children and shall be questioned about them (as to how she managed the home and brought up her children). A slave is a guardian over the property of his master and shall be questioned about it (how he safeguarded his trust). Caution! every one of you is a guardian and every one of you shall be questioned with regard to what he has been entrusted with.
