In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
36. But most of them follow nothing but fancy: truly fancy can be of no avail against Truth. Verily Allah is well aware of all that they do.
37. This Qur'an is not such as can be produced by other than Allah. On the contrary, it is a confirmation of what went before it, and a fuller explanation of the Book, wherein there is no doubt, from the Lord of the Worlds.
38. Or do they say, "He forged it"? Say, "Bring then a Surah like unto it, and call anyone you can, besides Allah, if it be you speak the truth!"
39. No, they charge with falsehood that whose knowledge they cannot compass, even before the elucidation thereof reached them. Thus did those before them make charges of falsehood. But see what was the end of those who did wrong!
40. Of them, there are some who believe therein, and some who do not. And your Lord knows best those who are out for mischief.
41. If they charge you with falsehood say, "My work to me, and yours to you! You are free from responsibility for what I do, and I for what you do!"
Jonah 10:36-41

Onokomiyaki at 4 am
Hi there, my lovely Ladies! How's it going? How are you feeling? I hope you are feeling and doing absolutely great. Are you hungry? I didn't get to make onokomiyaki for dinner yesterday, so I planned it for the pre-dawn meal. I wasn't very alert mind you, stumbling around like a zombie. That can happen at 4 am. But I made my Japanese pancake out of batter (egg, water, flour, salt), lettuce, noodles, chives, black pepper and parsley. I used an omelet pan, so it kept its shape quite nicely. It tasted as you would expect- a pancake stuffed with lettuce and noodles. Oh yeah, it was good. I didn't make any sauce for it, I guess I should have. Maybe next time. It was definitely filling though. Oh, I didn't take any snapshots! I was too drowsy to think of that.

Qur'an 20190521
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
31. Say, "Who is it that sustains you from the sky and from the earth? Or who is it that has power over hearing and sight? And who is it that brings out the living from the dead, and the dead from the living? And who is it that rules and regulates all affairs?" They will soon say, "Allah." Say, "Will you not then show piety?"
32. Such is Allah, your real Cherisher and Sustainer. Apart from Truth, what but error? How then are you turned away?
33. Thus is the Word of your Lord proved true against those who rebel. Verily they will not believe.
34. Say, "Of your 'partners', can any originate creation and repeat it?" Say, "It is Allah Who originates creation and repeats it. Then how are you deluded away?"
35. Say, "Of your 'partners' is there any that can give guidance towards Truth?" Say, "It is Allah Who gives guidance towards Truth. Is then God Who gives guidance to Truth more worthy to be followed, or he who finds not guidance unless he is guided? What then is the matter with you? How judge you?"
Jonah 10:31-35

Onokomiyaki
Hi, my beautiful Ladies! How are we today? I hope everything going nice and smooth, and you are feeling calm and happy. I was watching TV and I saw them make onomiyaki (Japanese pancakes), and I thought "Hey, that looks simple enough. And filling, too!" It looks like batter, shredded lettuce, egg, more batter, noodles, scallions... I thought I would try to make that for dinner today. So I went to the supermarket and got the lettuce, noodles, also tomatoes, parsley, beef liver was cheap, so was flour, then some fish cake, peanuts and sliced cheese. I was all ready to make a big, fat pancake. Maybe with hot dogs, liver, or burger (after all, they put bacon in theirs). OK fish cake. Then when I got home, my Mom gave me rice and chicken. Thanks Mom. I guess I'll be making onokomiyaki at 4 am.

Too darn pretty
Hi there, my precious Ladies! How's life treating you today? Breaking hearts as usual? I hope everything is fun and easy for you, and that you are having a marvelous time. You are beautiful, and I love you. It's an active day for me today. It's Sunday, and I clean my mother's bedroom every Sunday. I always wake up late during fasting month, it can't be helped because I'm on the computer most of the night. So right after the morning chores, it's voice training time. I didn't do so bad today alhamdulillah. I was tired yeah, but I sounded OK I think. Second Life always makes updates to the program, and I mostly use the Linden Labs version since I believe we have a symbiotic relationship inshaAllah. Second Life is the main portal the Internet uses to hear me sing (I suppose I could use Skype if I wanted to). But I love having a pretty avatar. It's like heaven on earth, in a way. The latest update changed the lighting, so now I have dark shadows on my face. Of course I could use a custom environment (like I used in the snapshots below) to look perfect, but beauty queens must use a shared environment right? You know what I mean! So we play the game and try to compensate for being too pretty. It's not a blessing, but I suppose it IS a blessing to be pretty in heaven.

Qur'an 20190519
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
17. Who does more wrong than such as forge a lie against Allah, or deny God's Signs. But never will prosper those who sin.
18. They serve, besides Allah, things that hurt them not, nor profit them, and they say, "These are our intercessors with Allah." Say, "Do you indeed inform Allah of something God knows not, in the heavens, or on earth? Glory to God! And far is God above the partners they ascribe!"
19. Humankind was one nation, but differed. Had it not been for a Word that went forth from your Lord, their differences would have been settled between them.
20. They say, "Why is not a Sign sent down to him from his Lord?" Say, "The Unseen is only for Allah. Then wait you. I too will wait with you."
21. When We make mankind taste of some mercy after adversity has touched them, behold! They take to plotting against Our Signs! Say, "Swifter to plan is Allah!" Verily, Our messengers record all the plots that you make.
Jonah 10:17-21

Not much going on
Hi there, my lovely Ladies! What's happening? How's business? I hope you are having tons of fun and making tons of money for yourself. There's not much going on here today, just the usual. I went to the supermarket this morning, and got a loaf of bread. Yeah I'm too lazy to make dough right now, and sandwiches are so much faster to make. Especially at 4 am. There's so much other stuff I have to do, and I don't want to spend all my time in the kitchen. I'm having ramen noodles for dinner. I love ramen! When it's done right, that is. It's a light dinner, plus I have a lot of mangoes to eat. I hope I'm getting thinner. Some people gain weight over Ramadan, I don't want to be like that.
