A is for Allah – Yusuf Islam

I remember listening to this song for this first time way back in the 80s. Evergreen!

 

I look, I see – Yusuf Islam

 

This one is definitely a classic! Live performance of I look I see by Yusuf Islam.

 

My Mum is Amazing – Zain Bikha

An amazing song for an amazing person! All moms are amazing, for that matter.

I can’t wait to see my mom over Eid Al-Adha! :-)

Registration 2009 Banner

The making of our Registration Banner

One of the things we do annually is designing our own banners. Fortunately, there are a couple of free and open source software out there like GIMP and Inkscape so you don’t have to pay a hefty fee for something like Adobe Photoshop. Despite being free, GIMP for instance has most of the stuff you’d need to make or edit images.

  The only problem doing banners on your own is that you might end up spending too much time learning how to use the graphics application.

Both GIMP and Inkscape can be installed on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.

The following is one of the banners we put up near our school this year. It was done using GIMP. Then we send it to places like Barakah to get it printed out.

Peace!

 

Upsy Daisy – I look I see 2

Yusuf Islam (Jamal Records) is back with "I look I see 2". I came across this while searching for stuff at youtube. Very nice one indeed. Time to check out Saba Islamic Media if they’ve got a copy.

 

Anyways the key message in the nasheed is that going to the masjid is cool. And parents (like me) should take their kids to pray at the Masjid!

. In Bandar Seri Putra, there are a couple of Surau/Musolla (i.e. As-shakirin) and of course there’s a beautiful masjid at KUIS that everyone can go to!
