Munirah is one month old

Munirah turned one month old today. I’ve finally gotten around to preparing a picture or two of her. The picture is already two weeks old, and at this age their faces change daily. I was gone on a work trip for 5 days, and I swear she was a new person when I came home. Now I’m leaving tomorrow to Mulu for a week of hacking through the jungle. I wonder what she’ll look like when I return. Meanwhile, Zahidah is curious about the new baby in the house. She’s curious what noise Munirah’ll make if she bops her on the belly, or what her shiny eyes feel like.

Pantai Hospital, Ward C

Babies talk in Morse
To angels who tread these corridors

What beautiful talent we sadly unlearn
Weary of life�s maze, twist and turn
Until life itself ebbs to its full and final term
And we lay in bed, old, weak and infirm

Only to find ourselves once again speaking
To angels garbed in light, and with yea, what mighty wings!

Munirah has changed alot, I agree! At first she looked so much like Raudzah’s younger brother. But now I don’t see that. She’s clearly another beauty! How lucky we are to have her in the family!

Mash’Allah…her name suits her…her face is very radiant…she has a slight resemblance to her big brother in the second pic…good work Mom and Dad! Per the Sunnah, it looks like Raudzah must have eaten many melons during the pregnancy…it shows on the baby’s pretty face.

Briefly

Anwar Ibrahim and the Opposition: Malaysian Seeks End to Decades of Firm Rule - a pretty decent roundup of political developments in Malaysia, from the New York Times.
The Spiritual Aspirant: Sidi Khalil Moore will be in Singapore conducting a workshop for The Spiritual Aspirant, to be held 27 June to 5 July. I had the pleasure to hear Sidi Khalil speak in Detroit back in 2002 in conjunction with the US tour of Habib Ali Al-Jifri. I regret I won't be able to make the short trip across the South China Sea to attend, but I recommend it to anyone in the area. The workshop is being sponsored by Simply Islam, under the capable hands of some of the fine people who put on the Journey to Ihsan event a couple years ago, which I did attend and enjoyed immensely.
Collapse Preparedness: The transition from the USSR to the republic of Russia was a catastrophic event for the people who lived through it. The eventual (imminent?) collapse of the US will be much much worse, warns Dmitry Orlov. The USA has a Collapse Gap. Orlov realizes
that some people will react rather badly to having their country compared to the USSR. I would like to assure you that the Soviet people would have reacted similarly, had the United States collapsed first. Feelings aside, here are two 20th century superpowers, who wanted more or less the same things – things like technological progress, economic growth, full employment, and world domination – but they disagreed about the methods. And they obtained similar results – each had a good run, intimidated the whole planet, and kept the other scared. Each eventually went bankrupt.
Valuable lessons on what to expect and how to prepare follow. Read it yourself, but the condensed advice is this: Live on the margins of society. One encouraging sign that Americans are picking up the skills they will need to survive: haggling at the mall.
