Coming from the country side in Australia, I was never exposed to Islam. I knew nothing about it. I thought of it as an oppressive religion, whenever I heard about it. It wasn’t until I went to Malaysia, that God guided me in ways I never expected, Subhan’Allah.
I learned that Muslim women also have rights, which were legally given even before the West did. Meeting impressive women like Sisters in Islam and Marina Mahathir, also inspired me to divulge into Islam more. I found that I could have a career and be a Muslim. However, it wasn’t until a year later, I reverted, Alhamdulillah.
Islam is a beautiful way of life to praise and worship Allah as One God every single day. While it is not easy to explain to friends and family, I wouldn’t have it any other way. I did a lot of research and interviewed many Muslim and even non-Muslim women on why women choose to cover up. I also learned a lot from my Imam and his wife, who taught me it is for women to be recognized more for their intelligence, not be as exposed, to this sometimes, overly sexual world and to keep your beauty for your husband.
I’ve met many wonderful, intelligent women who chose to wear Hijab, which is her right. Dressing more modestly came naturally after reverting. I hope to one day wear Hijab every single day, In’sha’Allah. God truly is the Turner of Hearts – I never in my wildest dreams thought I would become a Muslim, yet, He opened my heart and has blessed me in more ways than I could ever imagine or repay Him for.
That’s why I know Allah is Love and Mercy, and I want to worship Him better every day for as long as He gives me life. My favorite quote is ‘فَاصْبِرْ صَبْرًا جَمِيلًا’ – ‘So endure patiently, with a beautiful patience.’

‘American Sniper’ will be released in Singapore cinemas on 22nd Jan 2015.
Directed by Clint Eastwood. The story of the late Chris Kyle a former Navy SEAL and the most successful sniper in US military history with 160 confirmed kills. The movie was released on 16th Jan in USA.
The movie has radicalized men and women and make them hate a particular race and religion.
Censorship board of Singapore, via the Ministry of Communications and Information and the Minister-in-charge of Muslim Affairs, must re-look at the repercussions in view of the current attack against ISLAM.
It will not be a surprise if more self-radicalised Singapore non-muslims born and bred here to terrorize Muslims.
Retaliation in defence is a calling.

MUFTI Besar Mesir, Sheikh Dr Shawki Allam, akan berada di Singapura selama empat hari dari Sabtu ini bagi Program Pelawat Unggul (DVP) anjuran Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura (Muis).
Sheikh Dr Shawki mengunjungi Singapura atas undangan Menteri Bertanggungjawab bagi Ehwal Masyarakat Islam, Dr Yaacob Ibrahim, yang menemui beliau semasa menteri itu mengunjungi Mesir November lalu.
Ini kali pertama ketua agama itu, yang dilantik menjadi Mufti ke-19 Mesir pada 2013, mengunjungi Singapura dan rantau ini.
Sheikh Dr Shawki seorang pemimpin Islam dan ulama yang dihormati dan dikenali kerana dedikasi dan usahanya ke arah keamanan menerusi pemahaman masyarakat yang pelbagai dan berbeza.
Beliau, yang dilahirkan pada 1961, merupakan Mufti Besar Mesir pertama dilantik oleh Majlis Ulama Kanan Universiti Al-Azhar.
Jawatan Mufti Besar sebelum ini dilantik oleh presiden Mesir.
Dalam DVP keempat itu, Sheikh Dr Shawki akan menyampaikan ceramah dan berdialog bersama asatizah, pelajar dan pemimpin agama Islam serta bukan Islam dan orang awam berkaitan tema ‘Membangunkan Masyarakat Harmoni dalam Dunia Pluralistik’.
Beliau akan juga melakukan kunjungan muhibah ke atas Presiden Tony Tan Keng Yam dan Perdana Menteri Lee Hsien Loong di Istana serta menyertai jamuan tengah hari yang dihos Menteri Negara Kanan (Ehwal Dalam Negeri merangkap Ehwal Luar), Encik Masagos Zulkifli Masagos Mohamad.
“Beliau antara Mufti yang agak muda secara relatif di Mesir. Beliau mempunyai pandangan progresif dan menarik mengenai Islam, mengenai Muslim di dunia Islam, termasuk mengenai masalah pelibatan wanita, tentang kebebasan bersuara,” kata Naib Dekan Akademi Muis, Ustaz Dr Mohammad Hannan Hassan, dalam satu taklimat media di pejabat Muis semalam.
Kemuncak lawatan Sheikh Dr Shawki ialah Ceramah Muis yang akan disampaikannya dan dipengerusikan Dr Yaacob.
Sekitar 500 Muslim dan bukan Muslim dijangka menghadiri ceramah pada 26 Januari ini dari 8 hingga 10 malam di Hotel Orchard.
Orang ramai yang berminat menyertai ceramah itu perlu mendaftar di laman www.muis.gov.sg/cms/muisacademy.

The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) will further deploy planners to support the multinational coalition against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), Defence Minister Dr Ng Eng Hen said in Parliament on Monday (Jan 19).
As part of its involvement in the coalition since November 2014, the SAF has sent a needs assessment and survey team, and a liaison officer to facilitate planning and coordination between the SAF and coalition forces.
Dr Ng revealed this in Parliament in response to questions by MP for Chua Chu Kang GRC Alex Yam on Singapore’s involvement in the fight against ISIS.
The planners will be deployed to the Combined Joint Task Force Headquarters and the Combined Air Ops Centre, and a site-survey team to prepare for the subsequent deployment of its KC-135 tanker.
However, Dr Ng said that it was still “premature to determine if there would be further requests” for more support from Singapore.
He also answered another question on the risk posed to Singapore, due to its early involvement in efforts against ISIS: “It is well-nigh impossible for any security forces in any country to be able to monitor any and every citizen. And our greatest challenge indeed is if an attack occurs, what happens to the unity which we have forged over many years.
“We must continue to use this time not only to increase our vigilance… But also to ask our community to come together and withstand such false ideologies and stand together if ever such an attack occurs.”
