I like getting my energy from dealing with the ideas, pictures, memories, and reactions that are inside my head, in my inner world. I often prefer doing things alone or with one or two people I feel comfortable with.I take time to reflect so that I have a clear idea of what I’ll be doing when I decide to act. Ideas are almost solid things for me. Sometimes I like the idea of something better than the real thing.
I like getting my energy from active involvement in events and having a lot of different activities.
I’m excited when I’m around people and I like to energize other people.
I like moving into action and making things happen.
I generally feel at home in the world.
I often understand a problem better when I can talk out loud about it and hear what others have to say.
Which trait is more Islamic?

• “How wonderful is the affair of the believer, for his affairs are all good, and this applies to no one but the believer.

• Muslim (918) narrated that Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: “There is no Muslim who is stricken with a calamity and says what Allah has enjoined – ‘Verily to Allah we belong and unto Him is our return. O Allah, reward me for my affliction and compensate me with something better’ – but Allah will compensate him with something better.”
“There is no Muslim who is stricken with a calamity and says what Allaah has enjoined – ‘Verily to Allaah we belong and unto Him is our return. O Allaah, reward me for my affliction and compensate me with something better’ – but Allaah will compensate him with something better.”

Stimulus
What is the point in proudly claiming that you have undergone tarbiyyah and has usrah regularly if you are prejudicial; your writings and tongue spew negative words in the form of slander, defamation and insults. If you are not bashful towards humans, be bashful towards Allah because you claim to be His Deen’s warrior but you are far from His true teachings
Responses
• Tell that to your own kind first, especially those in UMNO before telling other people..
• Excuse me, does UMNO has USRAH?
It is very dangerous for a Muslim like Zainah Anwar Sisters in Islam to raise a banner “WE ARE ALL ALLAH’s CHILDREN” because it can harm the aqidah. As a Muslim, we cannot accept the concept that Allah has children, because it is stated clearly in Surah Al-Ahad that He is the One God who has no children …
ResponsesIf you want to uphold Islam, you must touch all topics. Don’t be silent on one part lest your livelihood is threatened?
(You) cannot say anything about Mahathir’s daughter.. It would then be difficult to get money..or how is it ustaz?
To the left of zainah is whose daughter eh?
Cannot see who’s next (to zainah) who is she?
Err..can you please re-check the facts in the
banner at your lobby? I notice some
inaccuracies thereWho are you to
correct him? Can’t you see he is taller
than you?
