"Saya pelik tengok anak2 akak semua jenis dengar cakap....buat semua yang akak suruh..."
Ye sebab akak garang😡😡😡
Hehe takut tak😂
...Continue Reading′′ I'm weird looking at all my children who listen to it.... do everything that I ask..."
Because I'm fierce 😡😡😡
Hehe scared or not 😂
Actually, children are like that because we have applied ′′ service culture ′′ to parents since children were still young. Since they can understand the instructions. So when children are used to instructions, they are used to ′′ service culture ", they will easily listen to and easily fulfill every parent s' request.
Example of ′′ service culture ′′ in family for children
- pinch mom and dad always 💆🏻🙇🏼 ♀️
- serve food 🍛🍲
- provide medicine for sick family members 💊
- spoon the rice 🍚
- get drinks when mom and dad are thirsty 🥃
- plucking fruits for mom and dad 🥝🍌🍎
- open / close fence and door 🔐
- put on umi's socks and shoes. Umi noticed Cinderella 👠
- sister / brother feed the rice to the younger sibling
- get things left behind
- on off fan switch / light switch
- looking for missing items 🕵🏼 ♀️🔎
- cleaning up the house
- wipe the table after eating
- dishwasher
- payungkan umi and dad ⛱
- and many more service activities
When you want to ask, mother must use the word ′′ Help ′′ and the language is better to be beautiful. ′′ Honey, please clean this table..."
Don't be when your child is grown up, you'll just start calling ′′ love ", when your child will hear you feel disgusted
But don't just do anything for us, we also have to do things that make our children happy.
- kisses and hugs always
- joking around
- telling stories of religious children
- mom is praying together with the children
- talking about the heaven of hell, about the charity scale in Al Mizan's balance so that he understands why he has to be rewarded.
- bathe, shameless & cut hair. Every time you talk to your child, ′′ when you're old, this is how you have to do it to your mother, bathe, shameless ". Can you?. Give her a promise. Talk about the same thing, let the child digest the sentence.
- umi cooks deliciously, cooks her child's favorite cooking
- have time to practice eating annoyed. Talk about the same thing, talk softly, ′′ later when mom and dad are old, (the name of the child) will be fed too.... Can I? Also say repeat.
- take care of your child when he's sick. Always hugging him and giving the sentences of emotional touch like the sentence when he was bathing and annoyed just now 😉
- cut child's nails every Friday
- buy a favorite gift / reward when your child behaves well.
- do various activities together. Make a WONDERFUL MOMENT to be remembered by children when they grow up. For example, during holiday, asking for picnic, playing badminton together, jogging together... worship is also done together.
BIG ABST ❗️
❌ Mom don't talk
Children who are frequented will be hard to educate. Hard to hear the word.
❌ Right kids make their own things with HP, watching TV is not useful. Kids will be harder to hear the word.
❌ one big mistake when parents buy HP for children who are still in school! Without our knowledge, there are many ′′ weird stories ′′ he can see. This will make the heart darker. It's getting harder to absorb advice.
❌ let the kids go out with friends. Especially the motor gang, bike gang, ball gang. Take care of your children from the negative influences of your friends. Let people say we lock our children up!
Oh my God, I was wrong before... the kids are big now... and it's hard to listen to. What should I do?
✔️ Mom changes her attitude. Stop talking. Start praying. Remember, Allah is the one who holds his heart. She can change asbab of mother's prayer.
✔️ Throw away the ego. Apologies with the kids. Confessing self mistakes. Inviting children to change.
✔️ Many prayers for Tahajud prayers / prayer wishes. Pray for the beautiful children.
How can I make sure that prayer is mustajab?
✔️ Mom, pray in the prayerful times. For example, the time between azan and iqomah, 15 minutes before breaking fast, when it rained, the last 1/3 nights which is after 3 am, the time of asar is Friday, when the mother is done doing worship (e.g. after reading the al quran ), after giving charity. It's better to talk to every good deeds so that Allah can answer our prayers.
✔️ Mother don't do bad things that become hijab on the granted of prayer. Mom keep the use, keep the mouth, keep the heart. Also taking care of the source of sustenance / nutrition.
May Allah swt give us taufiq (strength to make change) and guidance (guidance for us to be better).
P / s Please comment the sign of ukhuwwah.
Share if you feel useful.
Thank God, it's fulfilled, promise to write these long tips.
As a mother, I know I'm not perfect enough... I also struggle to make myself the best model in the eyes of children.... not easy but we have to work..... I believe, there are more perfect mothers out there... and i pray that Allah will give me strength like them.
Let's all try to do the best for our children... with effort and prayer 😊

Sheep or Goat?
““But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me drink. I was a stranger, and you took me in. I was naked, and you clothed me. I was sick, and you visited me. I was in prison, and you came to me.’ “Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, and feed you; or thirsty, and give you a drink? When did we see you as a stranger, and take you in; or naked, and clothe you? When did we see you sick, or in prison, and come to you?’ “The King will answer them, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’ Then he will say also to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you didn’t give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink; I was a stranger, and you didn’t take me in; naked, and you didn’t clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.’ “Then they will also answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn’t help you?’ “Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you didn’t do it to one of the least of these, you didn’t do it to me.’ These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”” (Matthew 25:31-46 WEB)
Those who are believers are sheep.
Sheep are sheep not because of their good works, but by birth.
They are born of the the Spirit of the Lamb of God, so of course they grow up and mature into sheep!
To serve Jesus is to love His people. When we walk in love, we are heaping up glorious eternal rewards for ourselves.
When faith in Jesus reaches maturity, it produces the fruit of good works—that’s love in action.
To feed the hungry, satiate the thirst of the thirsty (not just with normal water but with the water of God’s word and the manifested power of the Holy Spirit too) clothe the naked, be hospitable to strangers, visit the sick and visit prisoners—these are all ways of walking in love, fulfilling Jesus’ commandment to love one another as He has loved us.
Sometimes goats do good works too, such as giving to charity and showing hospitality, but their assessment before Jesus is firstly by the type of creature they are.
They are goats (unbelievers—sinners still dead in sin) and so are destined for eternal torment in the lake of fire.
The type of creature one is determines the eternal destination, and one’s works determines the quality of life in that destination.
Both sheep and goats will be judged by their works, but for a different purpose.
Sheep will only receive rewards for their good works (the product of walking in love) since Jesus already paid the price for all their sins at the cross, while goats will receive a sentence of condemnation according to their sins.
Because goats spurned Jesus’ payment for their sins, they will have to pay their own sin debt in full.
It is so grievous that they will be paying for it forever.
There is no end to one’s punishment when he subjected the Son of God to suffer his punishment and then acted like he didn’t need Jesus to do that anyway.
Little sheep, in my book “Sandcastles Don’t Last Forever” you will learn more about the great eternal rewards that await you in the Millennium, the judgment process, how you can fulfill your calling in life and maximize your rewards. I can’t wait for you to be so blessed by the revelations within ===>

A video detailing what I am doing onboard the medical ship YWAM PNG and the work, the mission that is done by all 150 volunteers onboard.
After my chief mate license, I’ve decided to continue my sea time… except not on a containership.
I’ve always strive to make good use of my spare time when working on a ship (ie. Shooting maritime videos) and so I was thrilled when I have had the opportunity to help with relief work/medical aid missions onboard the M.V. YWAM PNG
In this video, I vlog about my life at (uncharted) sea, what is it that we are doing and the special work done by all the volunteers onboard.
One of the most amazing moments I have had so far was witnessing a old man, blind for 15 years, having his eyesight restored onboard our ship. The man in tears, on his knees, repeated the sentence with joy and gratitude saying “Thank you! Thank you! Now I get to see my grandchildren”
(っ◕‿◕)っ Interested in volunteering? visit https://ywamships.org.au/
No maritime skills needed! There are many different departments. Anyone can join - from medical personnel, mariners, general volunteers, cooks and house keeping team etc

For those who were there at McDonough Gymnasium on August 4, 1994, few will forget the arrival of a 6-0 freshman guard who needed no introduction. The rumors of Allen Iverson's arrival to the Kenner Summer League were true, and by game's end, Iverson had scored 40 points. By the Sunday afternoon final, before an overflow crowd inside the gym and a crowd of those outside who could not get in, Iverson finished a combined 99 point effort in three days against some of the best collegiate talent in the city. This, of course, from a player that had not played organized basketball in over a year.
The Allen Iverson years had begun.
A brief profile can't do justice to tell the story of one of the greatest pure athletes ever to attend Georgetown, a man without peer in his talent over two years at the collegiate level. Just a year before his Kenner debut, few would have imagined Allen Iverson ever playing college basketball.
Iverson was not only a 31 point a game guard for Bethel HS, but a football player of tremendous skill. As a quarterback and defensive back his sophomore season, he produced nearly 1,600 yards offense and 13 INT's. By his junior year, he accounted for 2,204 yards, 21 touchdowns by rush or interception, and 14 touchdown passes. In a region which has produced NFL quarterbacks such as Michael Vick and Aaron Brooks, there are those who will still say "Bubbachuck" Iverson was better than both of them. Schools such as Arkansas, Kentucky, Duke, and three dozen other top programs across two sports were vying for perhaps the greatest two-sport star the Tidewater had ever produced.
When he led Bethel to the state title, someone asked what it was like to win the title. "I'm going to get one in basketball now," which he did. In late February, 1993, en route to the state title he had promised, Iverson was one of a large group of Bethel teammates at a Hampton bowling alley when a fight broke out between students from rival schools trading racial insults. Three people were hurt in the aftermath. Despite conflicting testimony from eyewitnesses and no clear evidence linking him to the crime, Iverson was one of four black students arrested.
Racial tensions were heightened when the prosecutors passed on a misdemeanor assault charge and charged Iverson with three counts of felony "maiming by mob", which carried a 20 year prison sentence. Despite video evidence which did not place Iverson in the crowd at the time of the fight, he was convicted in a racially charged case.
The 20 year sentence was later reduced to five, and Iverson was granted clemency by Gov. Douglas Wilder three months later, sending Iverson to a detention program at an alternative high school. (The original charges were thrown out by the Virginia court of appeals in 1995.)
In the spring of 1994, with Iverson still in detention, his mother approached John Thompson with a plea to help her son get to college and start a new chapter of his life. Though Thompson had passed on a number of troubled players in the past, he offered Iverson a scholarship in April of that season, contingent upon his completion of high school and his legal release, which was granted 48 hours before his Kenner debut.
By his debut in a Georgetown uniform in November 1994, Iverson had been the subject of intense national media attention. In the Hoyas' annual exhibition with Fort Hood, Iverson scored 36 points, five assists, and three steals in 23 minutes. Local columnists were in awe.
"Hang his number up in the rafters," wrote Tom Knott of the Washington Times. "He's better than most of the point guards in the NBA right now."
"I saw Lew Alcindor, Austin Carr, Moses Malone, Alonzo Mourning, Albert King, Ralph Sampson and Patrick Ewing play in high school," said the Post's Thomas Boswell. "Now, I have two memories on my first impression top shelf. The man who became Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Allen Iverson."
Iverson opened the 1994-95 season in Memphis, TN in a 97-79 loss to defending NCAA champion Arkansas, scoring 19 points. Six days later, he scored 31 in a nationally televised game with DePaul, followed by 30 four days later against Providence, leading the team in scoring 22 times that season. His only game under double figures for the season (and his career) was a game where he played only ten minutes in a loss at Villanova, a game Georgetown coach John Thompson threatened to forfeit when a group of Villanova students paraded through the Spectrum in black and white-striped prison garb, with a sign comparing Iverson to O.J. Simpson.
"You accept certain ribbing, but there is a line," Thompson said after the game. "I can condone any Christian university sitting and watching that happen...If that happens [again], I going to walk. It that simple." Such fan behavior was not seen thereafter.
Later in the season, with President Bill Clinton in attendance, Iverson scored 26 as the Hoyas routed Villanova, 77-52. He followed it up with 21 to beat Syracuse, 28 versus St. John's, 31 in a Big East tournament opener with Miami (a game that saw Iverson outscore the entire Hurricane team at the end of the first half), and 27 versus Connecticut in the semis. In the NCAA regional, he scored 24 in the loss, but held Jeff McInnis to 1 for 8 shooting. By season's end, Allen Iverson had been named Big East Player of the Week nine times, Rookie of the Year, a second team all-conference selection, and honorable mention All-America recipient. Having led the Hoyas in points and steals en route to the school's first NCAA regional appearance since 1989, Iverson was already a star. By 1996, he would become nothing less than a sensation.
The leaser of a talented team that featured four future NBA stars, Allen Iverson dominated the 1995-96 season as no Hoya has done before or since. Adept at the crossover dribble that became his NBA trademark, lightning quick to the basket, and able to score on opponents at will, Iverson was largely unstoppable. Even more impressive was an effort to improve his shooting touch, for despite averaging 20.4 points as a freshman in 1994-95 (2nd all time for a Georgetown rookie), Iverson only shot 39 percent from the field, 23 percent from three, and 19 percent from three in Big East play. For his sophomore season, his field shooting increased to 48 percent, his three point mark to 36 percent. The results were striking.
In the pre-season NIT versus Temple, Iverson shot 50 percent for 24 points and a career high 10 rebounds. After a 23 point effort against Georgia Tech, he scored a career high 40 against Arizona, one of two 40+ point games that season. In Big East play, Iverson could ring up points with ease, such as the game where he scored 21 points in only 20 minutes against Rutgers.
In the final three months of the season, Iverson led the team in 21 of the team's 25 games: 40 against Seton Hall, 39 against St. John's, 34 against Providence. He scored 30 in a wild win over Memphis, and followed it up two nights later with 26 in an upset of #3 Connecticut. For the game, Iverson totalled 26 points, 8 steals, and 6 assists, including a soaring dunk past Ray Allen and the Huskies. It was the highest ranked team any Georgetown team had defeated since 1988. His best performance of the season might have been a 37 point, 8 rebound, and three steal effort against #6 ranked Villanova, playing only 27 minutes. The 106-68 win represents the sixth largest margin of victory and the largest margin ever by a Georgetown team against a top 10 opponent.
Iverson was capable of an off game; unfortunately, two came at particularly inopportune times for the Hoyas' hopes for a national title. Entering the 1996 Big East Final with a #1 seed on the line, Iverson shot 4 for 15 and the Hoyas lost by one, 76-75. As a result of the loss, Georgetown was seeded #2 behind top ranked UMass, and in the regional final between the two teams Iverson struggled with a 6 for 21 effort in the loss. For the season, though, his statistics were astonishing: his 926 points broke the then-record by 124 points. He set new single season marks in field goals, field goal attempts, three pointers, three point attempts, steals, minutes, and scoring average (25.0), the latter of which ranked 7th in the nation that season. The Big East's defensive player of the year, he was named a consensus All-American amidst numerous other awards.
If he could somehow have stayed four years, Iverson undoubtedly would have shredded the Georgetown record books. But whatever hopes existed for Iverson to resist the lure of the NBA were short lived, particularly with the news that one of his sisters had fallen ill. Seeing the opportunity to take care of his family's medical needs, Iverson announced for the NBA draft soon after the end of his sophomore season, becoming the first Georgetown player in the Thompson era to do so. The compact that had bound so many great Hoya players to a four year commitment--from Ewing to Williams, Mourning to Mutombo--had now been broken.
The first pick in the 1996 NBA draft, Iverson signed a $3.9 million contract with the Philadelphia 76ers and a ten year, $50 million deal with Reebok. His effort on the court is well known and respected, but for all the media portrayals of Iverson as the anti-hero, an icon of a "Hip Hop Nation" that ran counter to the NBA's carefully constructed marketing image, or as a symbol of all that is allegedly wrong in professional basketball, he remains remarkably well-grounded.
Married for six years and the father of two, Iverson is fiercely loyal to his teammates and to his childhood friends. He considered it an honor to play for the U.S. Olympic team in 2004 when other NBA stars passed on the offer, and maintains a number of charity events to benefit his local community. In comparison to his NBA career, his years at Georgetown were largely free of the intense media and personal scrutiny, providing at least two years where he could grow as a person as well as a basketball player.
His arrival and exit at Georgetown is still a source of debate in some circles, but his performance on the court is not. Allen Iverson found a home, even briefly, at the Hilltop, and remains one of its brightest stars. "In my heart, I know I'm a basketball player," Iverson said following his 2006 NBA trade, "being that I know I can play with the best of them."
From that first Kenner League game on 1994, no one has doubted it since.

In Big East play, Iverson could ring up points with ease, such as the game where he scored 21 points in only 20 minutes against Rutgers.
In the final three months of the season, Iverson led the team in 21 of the team's 25 games: 40 against Seton Hall, 39 against St. John's, 34 against Providence. He scored 30 in a wild win over Memphis, and followed it up two nights later with 26 in an upset of #3 Connecticut. For the game, Iverson totalled 26 points, 8 steals, and 6 assists, including a soaring dunk past Ray Allen and the Huskies. It was the highest ranked team any Georgetown team had defeated since 1988. His best performance of the season might have been a 37 point, 8 rebound, and three steal effort against #6 ranked Villanova, playing only 27 minutes. The 106-68 win represents the sixth largest margin of victory and the largest margin ever by a Georgetown team against a top 10 opponent.
Iverson was capable of an off game; unfortunately, two came at particularly inopportune times for the Hoyas' hopes for a national title. Entering the 1996 Big East Final with a #1 seed on the line, Iverson shot 4 for 15 and the Hoyas lost by one, 76-75. As a result of the loss, Georgetown was seeded #2 behind top ranked UMass, and in the regional final between the two teams Iverson struggled with a 6 for 21 effort in the loss. For the season, though, his statistics were astonishing: his 926 points broke the then-record by 124 points. He set new single season marks in field goals, field goal attempts, three pointers, three point attempts, steals, minutes, and scoring average (25.0), the latter of which ranked 7th in the nation that season. The Big East's defensive player of the year, he was named a consensus All-American amidst numerous other awards.
If he could somehow have stayed four years, Iverson undoubtedly would have shredded the Georgetown record books. But whatever hopes existed for Iverson to resist the lure of the NBA were short lived, particularly with the news that one of his sisters had fallen ill. Seeing the opportunity to take care of his family's medical needs, Iverson announced for the NBA draft soon after the end of his sophomore season, becoming the first Georgetown player in the Thompson era to do so. The compact that had bound so many great Hoya players to a four year commitment--from Ewing to Williams, Mourning to Mutombo--had now been broken.
The first pick in the 1996 NBA draft, Iverson signed a $3.9 million contract with the Philadelphia 76ers and a ten year, $50 million deal with Reebok. His effort on the court is well known and respected, but for all the media portrayals of Iverson as the anti-hero, an icon of a "Hip Hop Nation" that ran counter to the NBA's carefully constructed marketing image, or as a symbol of all that is allegedly wrong in professional basketball, he remains remarkably well-grounded.
Married for six years and the father of two, Iverson is fiercely loyal to his teammates and to his childhood friends. He considered it an honor to play for the U.S. Olympic team in 2004 when other NBA stars passed on the offer, and maintains a number of charity events to benefit his local community. In comparison to his NBA career, his years at Georgetown were largely free of the intense media and personal scrutiny, providing at least two years where he could grow as a person as well as a basketball player.
His arrival and exit at Georgetown is still a source of debate in some circles, but his performance on the court is not. Allen Iverson found a home, even briefly, at the Hilltop, and remains one of its brightest stars. "In my heart, I know I'm a basketball player," Iverson said following his 2006 NBA trade, "being that I know I can play with the best of them."
From that first Kenner League game on 1994, no one has doubted it since.
