Did you ever wonder… why it’s called Surah Al-Baqarah —The Cow?
This is the longest chapter of the Qur’an that contains law, justice, fasting, economy, identity…
WHY A COW?
Six centuries ago, Ibn Khaldun explained why powerful empires collapse.
Not because enemies suddenly become stronger. Because prosperity erodes the discipline, courage, and unity that built the empire in the first place.
Meanwhile poorer and harsher societies still possess those qualities.
History is full of wealthy civilizations that lost to people who simply had greater endurance, cohesion, and willingness to fight.
Having a fat salary and a healthy workplace is such an underrated privilege.
You leave at 5pm, No micromanagement, WFH supported, Disagree with boss is okay, Leave approved without questions.... It's all a blessing. Take care of it .
Benda context paradox mcm ni sama situation bila culture timur bertembung dgn barat. Cth culture jepun bila org puji kita normally kena dalih dgn ckp e.g ‘not at all’ . But culture austria kau kena pndai terima pujian as a sign of mutual respect. 🫠
I received a wedding invitation. At the bottom it said:
“Your presence itself is a gift. We don't want any gifts at the wedding.”
I was confused, so I read it again and again. It's been an hour & I'm still confused!
Am I invited or not??
Good question.
In Malaysia, motor salah tp kereta pun salah. Motor sepatutnya tak boleh lane split. Kereta pulak sepatutnya anggap motor mcm kereta. Bila motor bwk agak tengah atau stay tengah2 semasa traffic light, treat them as vehicle. Dont know if this applicable..
saya tak pernah naik motor, jadi nak minta penjelasan daripada penunggang motor - apabila ada kesesakan jalan raya, semua kereta slow (10km/j) tapi motor tu naik laju je (50km/j) selit di antara lorong. Dah tahu banyak kemalangan tapi motor buat juga. Why?
At the atomic level, nothing ever truly touches. What we feel as ‘touch’ is our brain interpreting electromagnetic repulsion.
The object is real, the sensation is a constructed illusion.
Dulu aku men‘stereotype’kan org austria cenni centu. Rupanya bila fikir2 balik membe office aku ja kot ada specific trait bodo tak bertempat. Kdg2 susah nk pikir level bodo ada tahap mana. Haduhh aku tak pandai pun, tp bila ada org bodo auto terasa pandai hmm
Adaptation new culture:
Isnin-rabu: meeting, pura2 kerja dan complain byk2
Khamis: betul2 kerja tp balik on-time sbb hari khamis dah boh
Jumaat: semangat kerja tp smpai tgh hari balik
