homework for today

Helping Sarah with her tajwid homework while polishing mine too... For further reference, here is what we have learnt tonight.

Alif lam syamsiah and alif lam qamariah

Alif lam qamariah ialah lam yang bersambung terus daripada empat belas huruf ini iaitu hamzah (ء), ba' (ب), jim (ج), ha' (ح), kha' (خ), 'ain (ع), ghain (غ), fa' (ف), qaf (ق), kaf (ك), mim (م), wau (و), ha' (ﮬ) dan ya' (ي). Ini diambil sempena perkataan al-qamar (ﺍﻟﻘﻤﺮ). Dari perkataan itu, jelas cara membacanya adalah tidak memasukkaan lam ke dalam huruf selepasnya tetapi mematikannya dengan jelas lalu menyebut huruf yang seterusnya.

Alif lam syamsiah ialah lam yag bersambung dengan empat belas huruf ini pula iaitu ta' (ت), tha' (ث), dal (د), dzal (ذ), ra' (ر), zai (ز), sin (س), syin (ش), sod (ص), dhod (ض), tho (ط), zho (ظ), lam (ل) dan nun (ن). Ini diambil sempena perkataan asy-syamsiah (ﺍﻟﺸﻤﺴﻴﻪ). Dari perkataan tersebut, cara membacanya adalah dengan memasukkan ke dalam huruf selepas lam yang kebanyakkanya disabdukan dan lam tidak dibunyikan.

My super duper busy darling is still in the office. working hard to buy 'this' for me.

'This'

mother

Air mata keinsafan
Yang mengalir di malam sepi
Inilah dia pelembut jiwa
Bagi mendapat kasih Ilahi

Rintihan di pertiga malam
Dari seorang hamba yang dhoif
Kerna mengenang segala dosa
Moga mendapat keampunan dari Ilahi

Deraian air mata ini
Titisan yang paling berharga
Buat menyimbah api neraka
Moga selamat di titian Sirat
Bahagia menuju syurga abadi .........

Cats in the cradle

Suatu mlm, daddy was helping Sarah with her hafazan..begitu tekun, bersemangat dan bersungguh2 sekali. Suddenly daddy asked me if i ever heard this song....katanya lyricsnya amat bermakna dan bererti... Every parents who has children must listen to this song. Thanks Harry for reminding me what matters most in the world - our children. But still ... too bad that we can't bring the kids anywhere this school break. Husna wanted to go to PD, to show off her swimming skills, but daddy don't want to go because he said that he is busy..busy..busy... Grrr... Poor kids, I think I must print out the lyrics and paste it on the mirror, to remind daddy that he onced asked me to listen to this song.. Sorry kids, nanti kita pi berenang kat kolam UKM je ok.. You are now a good swimmer and i'm so pround of u..

This song is about the story of a father who is too busy to spend time with his son. Though the son repeatedly asks him to join in childhood activities, the father always responds with little more than vague promises of future quality time ( mcm selalu dibuat somebody je..), . While the son grows up loving and admiring his father, he picks up his father's habit of putting family on the backburner. The son is now starting to become like his father in the sense that he does not have much time to spend with his father (hmm.. don't blame Amir if he found comforts with his little laptop). The father becomes aware of his influence , where he finally recognizes that his failure to spend time with his son growing up has made his son the same way, and he'll never be able to recapture those years.

Years pass and the lonely, aging father, who is now retired and free from the constraints of work, finally desires to spend time with his son, who by this time is a full grown man and is now living in a city far away. Hoping to make up for lost time, he reaches out to him. The son however has his own life and family to worry about; he warmly responds that he is now too busy with his own work and family to spend time with (or even talk to) his father.

Like his father once had, the son promises that someday in the future they will spend time together. The father realizes that his son has become a self-involved career man who has no time for his own children, just like him when he was younger and working. It also says that the son's prediction about growing up to be like his father came true, although not in a way the father would have liked, and that the recurring lines of "we will get together then..we are going to have a good time then" are purely imaginary. Uwaaaa.... Sedih sungguh

Cats In The Cradle
( Harry Chapin )

My child arrived just the other day
He came to the world in the usual way
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay
He learned to walk while I was away
And he was talkin' 'fore I knew it, and as he grew
He'd say, "I'm gonna be like you, Dad"
"You know I'm gonna be like you"

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little Boy Blue and the Man on the Moon
"When you comin' home, Dad?"
"I don't know when, but we'll get together then"
"You know we'll have a good time then"

My son turned ten just the other day
He said, "Thanks for the ball, Dad, come on let's play"
"Can you teach me to throw?"
I said, "Not today, I got a lot to do"
He said, "That's ok"
And he walked away but his smile never dimmed
And said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah"
"You know I'm gonna be like him"

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little Boy Blue and the Man on the Moon
"When you comin' home, Dad?"
"I don't know when, but we'll get together then"
"You know we'll have a good time then"

Well, he came home from college just the other day
So much like a man I just had to say
"Son, I'm proud of you, can you sit for a while?"
He shook his head and then said with a smile
"What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys"
"See you later, can I have them please?"

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little Boy Blue and the Man on the Moon
"When you comin' home, Son?"
"I don't know when, but we'll get together then"
"You know we'll have a good time then"

I've long since retired, my son's moved away
I called him up just the other day
I said, "I'd like to see you if you don't mind"
He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if I can find the time"
"You see my new job's a hassle and kids have the flu"
"But it's sure nice talking to you, Dad"
"It's been sure nice talking to you"

And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me
He'd grown up just like me
Yeah, my boy was just like me

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little Boy Blue and the Man on the Moon
"When you comin' home, Son?"
"I don't know when, but we'll get together then"
"You know we'll have a good time then"

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little Boy Blue and the Man on the Moon
"When you comin' home, Son?"
"I don't know when, but we'll get together then"
"You know we'll have a good time then"
