Qur'an 20211004

 In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

56.  Say, "I am forbidden to worship those whom you call upon other than Allah."  Say, "I will not follow your desires.  If I did, I would stray from the path, and be not of the company of those who receive guidance."

57.  Say, "For me, I be on a clear Sign from my Lord, but you reject God.  What you would see hastened is not in my power.  The command rests with none but Allah.  God declares the Truth.  And God is the Best of judges."

58.  Say, "If what you would see hastened were in my power, the matter would be settled at once between you and me.  But Allah knows best those who do wrong."

(The Cattle 6:56-58)

Good food

 

Hi Natty!  Oh sorry I'm running late, Honey.  I had a late start on dinner.  I hope all is well with you.  I have a feeling you are enjoying much good food lately.  If so, I wish you would take snapshots and share it with us.  Perhaps you and I could recreate some of these culinary experiences when we are together inshaAllah.  Of course it would be easier if you took snapshots of these memories.

Yeah, I had a late start on dinner.  I was still eating dinner when they called the sunset prayer.  The food has been good today.  For lunch, my Mom gave me some rice with chicken, squid, prawns, anchovies and a boiled egg.  Dinner was just chicken tenders with fries.  I didn't have any spuds, so I had to go out and buy them, then get home and prep them for home fries.  That's what took so long.  The boiled potatoes need to cool down in the fridge before frying them up, but I didn't have much time for that.  So there was a lot of potato debris at the bottom of the wok.  What made dinner really good was the home made hot sauce.  I know a place that sells the purest chilli puree.  All I did was blend the puree up with fresh garlic, pickled soybeans and some anchovy bouillon.  No sugar!  No corn starch!  It was a perfect dip for both the fries and chicken tenders.  Better than ketchup.  Those orange breadcrumbs make a great backdrop, huh!
