Sports / Chinese Girl Rides Bicycle From Morocco To Lagos, Recounts Ordeals. by halalian: 4:06pm On Feb 27, 2018
A Chinese female cyclist, Huang Shuang, who rode from Morocco to Lagos, Nigeria, within five months, says she is convinced that anybody can achieve anything he or she determines to do.

Huang, also known as CICI, told the News Agency of Nigeria in Lagos on Monday that she was inspired to embark on “cycling around the world’’ after riding around her country.
The cyclist said that her experience in China motivated her to begin global cycling in America where she covered about 5,500 km in two months.

“I am glad that I have also been able to ride from Morocco to Lagos, Nigeria. This is an indication that irrespective of our sex, we can achieve anything we set out to do.

“The whole idea about my cycling started when, one day, I decided to embark on a cycling trip around my country, China.

“After the trip around China, I was motivated to take my first cycling around the world to America, where I covered about 5,500km in two months.

“Now, I am in Lagos from Morocco, after I flew from America to France, where I cycled around Europe for four months, before taking a ferry from Spain to Morocco,’’ she said. The cyclist, who left Morocco for Lagos on September 6, 2017, said her trip was fascinating though she experienced tiredness, robbery, accidents and had had to sleep under bridges and in gas stations.
Huang told NAN that she crossed the desert within six days and was well received by many African villages.

The cyclist said sometimes, she happily ate local meals made by the villagers.

“I have happily sung and danced with children in different African villages and communities where I passed the nights or stopped to cook.

“I have seen the most beautiful sunset, the most stunning mountain views, breath-taking lakes and virgin forests across Africa.

“My trip has also exposed me to many African children still living in poverty, hunger, without education and basic amenities,’’ she said.

The Chinese said she would be cycling to about 33 countries in the next three years, adding that she would continue her cycling from Lagos to Cameroon, Gabon, Congo, Angola, Namibia, South Africa, East Africa and some other countries.

Huang said her cycling was also informed by her desire to interact with children in African communities before inaugurating a free lunch for them in 2018.
She said she hoped to raise some money for the benefit of about 2,000 children. (NAN)

Family / List Of Things You Need To Teach Yor Children At Early Age by halalian: 8:32pm On Jan 20, 2015
Here is a list of things you need to teach your Children at early age:
1: Warn your Girl Child Never to sit on anyone's laps no matter the situation including uncles.
2: Avoid Getting Dressed in front of your child once he/she is 2 years old. Learn to excuse them or yourself.
3. Never allow any adult refer to your child as 'my wife' or 'my husband'
4. Whenever your child goes out to play with friends make sure you look for a way to find out what kind of play they do, because young people now sexually abuse themselves.
5. Never force your child to visit any adult he or she is not comfortable with and also be observant if your child becomes too fond of a particular adult.
6. Once a very lively child suddenly becomes withdrawn you may need to patiently ask lots of questions from your child.
7. Carefully educate your grown ups about the right values of sex . If you don't, the society will teach them the wrong values.
8: It is always advisable you go through any new Material like cartoons you just bought for them before they start seeing it themselves.
9. Ensure you activate parental controls on your cable networks and advice your friends especially those your child(ren) visit(s) often.
10. Teach your 3 year olds how to wash their private parts properly and warn them never to allow anyone touch those areas and that
includes you (remember, charity begins from home and with you).
11: Blacklist some materials/associates you think could threaten the sanity of your child (this includes music, movies and even friends and families).
12. Let your child(ren) understand the value of standing out of the
crowd.
13: Once your child complains about a particular person, don't keep quiet about it.
Take up the case and show them you can defend them.
Remember, we are either parents or parents-to-be

Romance / Ten Facts About Love by halalian: 8:10pm On Jan 20, 2015
1. Love is like an hourglass, with the heart filling up as the brain empties.
2. Love is rare, and its the only thing that can give life a real meaning.
3. Love comes quietly without banners or flashing lights. If you hear bells, get your ears checked.
4. Love illuminates with little indulgence, hatred alone is immortal.
5. People say you can't live without love...... I think oxygen is more important.
6. The biggest irony about love is that people marry for convenience, security and companionship but not for love.
7. Before loving with all our heart, we are already in love with our infatuation.
8. Love takes off the masks of our fears that we cannot live without, and make us realise we cannot live within.
9. Only when we give joyfully, without hesitation or thought of gain, that's when we can really know what love means.
10. Words never hurts you, unless it's from the people you love.


Those are my views, you can add yours.
Religion / How A Muslimah Feels About Her Modesty by halalian: 7:02am On Dec 03, 2014
To the sound of birds,
She rises from beneath the cotton sheets,
The call of the Mu'azzin having heard,
Her Lord, she's ready to meet,
She fixes her hijab,
Making sure no strand of hair remains loose,
Her abaya draped over her,
With her hijab around her neck she forms a noose,
Standing on the Musallah,
Having performed her Wudhu,
She begins with Bismillah,
To the ground, her eyes glued,
How beautiful she feels standing before her Master,
Nothing can be seen,
But the smile on her face which is plastered,
Her salah coming to an end, she feels serene,
Ready for the day ahead,
Nothing can cause her grief,
Energy boosted by Salatul Fajr,
She finishes with some Zhikr,
Nearly ready to attend her work place,
Gloves slipped on to her fingers,
Her veil draped across her face,
She leaves her home with the name of her Lord,
As she waits at the bus stop,
The eyes of people in her direction glare,
As she steps on to the bus,
She decides to ascend the stairs,
On her way up,
Contemptuous remarks are flung,
To their hostile behaviour,
She vows not to succumb,
Upstairs she finds empty seats,
She sits down with a sense of relief,
Having escaped from peering eyes,
Their scathing beliefs,
She asks herself,
What do they perceive?
What is so horrid about myself, that makes them pree?
I show them nothing,
And they show me hatred,
But I know in the sight of my Lord,
My dress sense is beloved,
So why should I care if they don't like me?
I won't give in to their scrutiny,
I dress for Allah and if that pleases Him,
I don't need to live to fulfill every desire and whim,
In the public eye,
I may be considered oppressed,
But my emaan rises high,
When my sense of dress is modest.
-----------------------------------
You can drop yours too.
Religion / The Amatullah In You by halalian: 8:32pm On Nov 12, 2014
The Amatullah In You...
I see you coming in your boyfriend's car dressed in your fashionable hijab, your head high up like a camel's hump.
You listen to the latest music without a care in the world, living life to the fullest is your goal.
You're so caught up in this life's illusion, you want the latest shoes and the most expensive clothes. Your only talk is what she's doing and what he's got.
But I look at you for what you truly are, a muslimah, an a'abida. The people around you may not see it, you yourself may not see it because you look at the exterior while I look at the interior.
I know beyond that tight fitting abaya and the red lipstick is an amatullah who loves Allah(SWT) and His messenger, who wants to submit wholeheartedly to Him.
I know that deep inside is my modest sister in islam who wants to maintain her chastity and above all, wants to make it to jannah.
I see you as someone who has succumbed to her desires and fallen victim to the society's evils, but I look at you as someone who can fight off that satan and defeat her nafs.
My dear sister, I know you can do it! I know that you can clean that heavy make up and stop shaving those eyebrows. I know you're capable of breaking off that haram relationship and maintain your modesty. I know you're better than to post pictures of yourself all over the internet for strange men to gaze upon.
I know that you can submit fully to Allah and be that superb muslimah that you are destined to be!
So come on my sister don't be shy, you have kept it in for so long it's time to let it out, release the Amatullah in you!

Literature / What Will You Do? by halalian: 7:21pm On Nov 08, 2014
During lunch at work last week, I
ate 3 plates of beans (which I
know I shouldnt).
When
I got home, my husband seemed
excited to see me and exclaimed delightedly: Darling I have a
surprise for dinner tonight. He
then
blindfolded me and led me to my
chair at the dinner table.
I took a seat and just as he was
about to remove my blindfold, the
telephone rang. He made me
promise not to touch the blindfold
until he
returned and went to answer the call.
The beans I had consumed
were still affecting me and the
pressure was becoming
unbearable, so
while my husband was out of the room I seized the opportunity,
shifted
my weight to one leg and let one
go.
It was not only loud, but it smelled
like a fertilizer truck running over a
skunk in front of a garbage dump!
I
took my napkin from my lap and
fanned the air around me
vigorously. Then, shifting to the other leg, I
ripped off three more. The stink
was
worse than cooked cabbage.
Keeping my ears carefully tuned to
the conversation in the other room, I went on releasing atomic
bombs
like this for another few
minutes.The pleasure was
indescribable!
Eventually the telephone farewells signaled
the end of my freedom, so I quickly
fanned the air a few more times
with my napkin, placed it on my
lap
and folded my hands back on it feeling
very relieved and pleased with
myself.
My face must have been the picture
of innocence when my husband
returned, apologizing for taking so long.
He asked me if I had peeked
through the blindfold, and I
assured him I had not.
At
this point, he removed the blindfold, and twelve dinner guests
seated
around the table, with their hands
to their noses If you were the lady
what would you do after
seeing the guest?
