  • Man that was fun

    Le Sigh.

    We just got back from our vacation, and our house is not livable. Buuuut……. That’s not what I wanna write about. Change of topic. we just went on a 3-week vacay to dubai, oman, and turkey- and it was awesome. Key highlights- But first -dubai, then in other posts ill tell you more.

    Dubai: Waterpark!!! Favorite ride: Jumeriah SCREAM!!! Picture this: you enter the waterpark (Wild Wadi) and the first sign is directly to the left of us and is for a slide is labeled “Jumeriah Scream!” Momma is helping Rigma find a place to sit, and Baba is looking at the sign and says “lets go on that one first!” “What about momma?” asks Iman. “She’ll catch up.” We start walking when i stop and glance at this HUGE tower of a slide to the right. I ask baba if we can go on that one next, and he says yes. We follow the sign and walk for around 10 minuits and finally we are there! My heart suddenly drops out of my chest when we are at the base of that huge tower i mentioned earlier. Oh no no no no. I hate heights. And this slide is the definition of heights. This.  Slide. Is. Too. Tall. I silence my heart and we climb steps for around 5 more min. We get in the line, which was only like, 15 people, and wait. 2 min later,  Momma comes up the steps. “You made it!” I say. She joins us in the line, and finally, FINALLY, its our turn. Lemme just give you a quick rundown. This is the new version of jumeriah scarea… THis ride is 32 meters high, and you go down at a whopping 80 kmph. Basically, you get in a tube, cross your arms and legs pray for your life that you don’t die, and then… The floor goes kaput. Here’s a video. (This is not ours.) 

    Yours truly,

    Musfira’s log

    Today is July 1st 2020. I am sitting on a VERY hard chair while typing this. I am wearing a shirt that says “Let’s Hug It Out”. No way. It’s a pandemic. Do you want to get sick? Well I don’t.

    I’m gonna ask momma if I can play some nasheeds. This will take longer than expected. I have to negotiate. Update: I won! Update: I am now listening to Khaled Siddiq Ft. Lil Berete “Drama.”

    Drama sings about racism in the Muslim community. People say to be kind while some men beat their wives up. Now what do I type about. Oh! Update: I am now listening to Khaled Siddiq “On Deen.”  

    On Deen sings about how Islam is the right religion. And converts have trouble learning because no one will teach them. 

    Cuz, I  have no man to show me how to pray my Salah,

    And I didn’t have no man to show me how to connect with Allah,

    And I didn’t have no man to show me how to read the Quran,

    This is the sad truth, Some Muslims are racist to the black people even if it doesn’t seem like it to them. They don’t even think they’re being racist. Some people might just not talk to the black people. It’s sad. 

    Racism is just plain cruel. Just because our skin colors are different, that doesn’t make it fair to torture people of color. That is racism. Now, The idea that people of color are lower beings than white people is horrible.

  • Musfira’s Nasheed Recommendation

    Musfira’s Nasheed Recommendation

    Today is June 29th 2020. I am sitting on the COMFY chair while typing this. We’re also listening to Native Deen My Faith, My Voice. (my faith.. My voice, don’t care what they say, my faith, my voice) 

    I like that nasheed. The lyrics speak up for Muslims. 

    I know what they call us

    They try to blame all us

    But I know how the Prophet lived like

    I know what he taught us.

    People think Muslims are terrorists but we’re not. Islam teaches kindness. Some people refuse to give money to homeless people but Islam teaches us to give. Islam teaches us that life is important, and every act of kindness is always counted no matter how small it is. 

    Now we are finishing the nasheed Rise Up. There are six people who sing it together. I don’t know all of their names. They’re speaking up for black people and justice. This is important because people can’t see beyond their skin color, and they treat black people horribly and unfairly. People should understand that the color of your skin doesn’t matter, your personality does. They don’t give black people their rights. I recommend people listen to this nasheed because it tells people about what’s happening.

  • Musfira’s Log: Day 1 – Two Movies and a Party

    Musfira’s Log: Day 1 – Two Movies and a Party

    Today is June 22st  2020. As you might know, there is a pandemic of Covid-19 also known as CoronaVirus. We are currently in self-quarantine. Today is our 102th day. Two days ago we had a 100th day party (Alone,In our house, Family only) It was EPIC. We watched TWO WHOLE MOVIES! And got gifts 🙂 I got a card stock book and a sticker book.  I also gave momma a cute card! She loved it 🙂

    We watched Mirai and Okko’s Inn. Mirai was about a little boy who just got a baby sister but he did not accept it. Every time the little boy threw a fit he would go to magical memories of family members including: Mom, Mirai, Grandpa And Grandma, And Yuko. 

    Okko’s Inn was about a girl who lost her parents in a car crash and then went to go live at her grand-mothers Inn. She met a ghost and became junior innkeeper. The ghosts’ names were Uribo and Miyo. My personal preference for the movies was Okko’s Inn. 

    Iman made AN ICE CREAM CAKE! It was a chocolate cake with chocolate ice cream and whipped cream. It was so good! 🙂 It was served while watching Mirai. We also had cream soda while watching Mirai. I recommend Okko’s Inn. It’s better than Mirai.

  • WAKE UP IMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!! By Musfira.

    WAKE UP IMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!! By Musfira.

    Ok. A few nights ago I tried to wake Iman up for suhoor…but no.  She wouldn’t wake up.  I tried to wake her up. Here is a list of unsuccessful techniques I tried to use:

    #1 Shaking her

    #2 Yelling in her ear

    #3 Robbing her of her blankie

    #4 Ice in a bag on her face

    #5 Ice outside of a big to paint her face. I literally took ice and put it in her face.

    #6 Ice cream. I tried to feed her ice cream. She wouldn’t open her mouth. I ate it instead.

    Finally I gave up and went to eat suhoor. The End.

     

  • 5 Silly facts about my family

    Hello my name is Cupcake. Well, my real name is not Cupcake. I just don’t want to share my personal info. At only 7 years old I’m very blessed to have my own computer. Anyways… On to the real thing.

    1. When my mom forgets people’s names when she is tired she says “What’s his face?”
    2. Once when my big brother was little my mom told him to route the map to school but instead he took her to Wendy’s just to get french fries.
    3. Once last year I was calling my dad but instead of saying “Baba” i said “Maba”.
    4. My dad once called me my Iman instead of Musfira.
    5. When my sister was 1 she tried to eat a beetle.

    Well that’s all I got! Bye Bye!
