  • THE HEIGHT OF ARROGANCE!!! Hajjah Mona Nasi Padang Geylang Serai

    THE HEIGHT OF ARROGANCE!!! Hajjah Mona Nasi Padang Geylang Serai

    This will be the last time I patronise this stall. I just spent $22.50 on 3 nasi campur which I must say is not cheap in the first place. But price aside, what pissed me off is the sheer arrogance of the owner. When I politely gave him feedback that his plate was too small to accomodate the nasi campur, he rudely said to me “Ini saya punya style. Pinggan ini untuk makan pakai sudu, bukan pakai tangan” (seeing that I used my hand to eat). When he sensed that I was talking to my wife about him, he arrogantly approached us in a confrontational manner. The conversation went on like this:
    Him: “Kenapa awak tak puas hati? Ini style saya, saya yang punya kedai”
    Me: “Saya cuma kasi feedback. Lagi pun saya kenal adik awak Hisyam dan dah lama makan disini sejak arwah mak awak masih ada”
    Him : (switching to English) This is my shop and my style. If you’re not happy, open your own shop!”

    OPEN MY OWN SHOP???!!!

  • Stop the Untrue Rumours of the SMRT Staff Who Died

    Stop the Untrue Rumours of the SMRT Staff Who Died

    Nasrulhudin Bin Najumudin
    26, Single

    There have been so many speculations about him getting married, had a pregnant wife and more that really upset us. We, his immediate family, are here to clarify that most of the rumours you have heard or received may be untrue.

    He was a fine young chap and a well- mannered guy who never forgot his responsibilities as a Muslim and son. So we want the rumour mill to just stop. Let’s not play the blaming game or spread more fitnah. If you don’t know the story, ask someone who knows the family or rather, shut the rumours away and offer your prayers instead.

    We thank each one of you who gave us support and encouraging words in this difficult time. A sudden departure of a loved one is definitely not easy but HE knows best. Redha.

  • May The Deceased SMRT Staff Be Granted Paradise For Their Jihad In Providing For Their Family

    May The Deceased SMRT Staff Be Granted Paradise For Their Jihad In Providing For Their Family

    Do you know that going to work to seek nafkah was described as “jihad” by our Prophet s.a.w?

    Nabi S.A.W was once asked by his companion regarding a man who was physically strong and was working tirelessly on a heavy labour: the companion of Rasul asked : “Ya Rasulullah if only this strong man joins us for Jihad in the way of Allah”

    Nabi s.a.w answered: “If he works hard to feed his kids, he is in Jihad.. if he works hard to feed his old parents he is in Jihad.. and if he is working to feed himself, to exalt himself from begging then he is also in Jihad in the way of Allah”

    We hope that those who lost their life in the accident yesterday attained husnul khatimah as mujahidin in the way of Allah.. and most importantly i think it also reminds us of our daily struggle at work, our own jihad.. and to always reallign our niat so that we truly are upon Allah’s way da-iman wa abadan..

    wallahu’alam..

  • Open Letter To SMRT: Don’t Be Too Quick To Shift Blame To Deceased Staff

    Open Letter To SMRT: Don’t Be Too Quick To Shift Blame To Deceased Staff

    We have heard it all before.

    You say you are sorry. And that you share our sadness.

    But you will return to your families and sleep easy tonight, while we mourn a tragic loss. Tomorrow morning, you will not have to make the dreadful trip to the mortuary to identify the lifeless and mangled body of a loved one. How can you say that you share our sadness? You do not understand our grief.

    Yet you ever-so eloquently say that you are “very saddened by the loss.” But to you, the two young lives lost today are just a statistic; A number that you have to account for in the face of public outrage. Just collateral damage. Soon, you will forget. Your career goes on. Your life goes on.

    To us they were beloved sons, brothers, cousins, nephews, friends. Brilliant human beings who had promising futures ahead of them.

    Honest young men who woke up one morning, had breakfast with their families, and eagerly showed up for work. Brave young men who, a few hours later in the hot midday sun, responded to a train track fault only to be struck by a train. They followed your orders only to be betrayed.

    As Muslims we try to live life right, to be kind to others, and live life knowing that one day we will return to our Maker. We do not fear or resent death.

    What we resent are your attempts to clear yourselves of any fault, insisting that you have observed all the standard operating procedures. If you did everything right, then your standard operating procedures must be flimsy.

    Your carefully maneuvered words make us wonder: are you attempting to shift the blame to the deceased? You know it is easy to blame someone who can no longer speak for himself.

    Instead of being so quick to protect your interests, seek the humanity deep within you to acknowledge your mistakes and learn from them to ensure that this tragedy does not happen to any one else’s son. Will you take responsibility? Or will your public relations team continue to craft words to protect you from blame?

    At this point, the families are grieving at the loss of a beloved. But grief will soon turn into anger.

    The author is a relative of one of the deceased who passed on in the SMRT train tragedy on 22 March 2016 at 11.10 a.m.
