Qur'an 20220810

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

86.  Say, "Who is the Lord of the seven heavens, and the Lord of the Throne Supreme?"

87.  They will say, "Allah."  Say, "Will you not then be filled with awe?"

88.  Say, "Who is it in whose hands is the governance of all things, Who protects, but is not protected, if you know?"

89.  They will say, "To Allah."  Say, "Then how are you deluded?"

90.  We have sent them the Truth, but indeed they practice falsehood!

91.  No son did Allah beget, nor is there any god along with God.  Behold!  Each god would have taken away what he had created, and some would have lorded it over others!  Glory to Allah, from the things they attribute to God!

92.  God knows what is hidden, and what is open.  Too high is God for the partners they attribute to God!

93.  Say, "O my Lord!  If You will show me that which they are warned against,"

94.  "Then O my Lord!  Put me not among the people who do wrong!"

95.  And We are certainly able to show you that against which they are warned.

96.  Repel evil with that which is best.  We are well acquainted with the things they say.

97.  And say, "O my Lord!  I seek refuge with You from the suggestions of the evil ones."

Qur'an 20220809

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

78.  It is God who has created for you hearing, sight, feeling, and understanding.  Little thanks it is you give!

79.  And God has multiplied you through the earth, and to God shall you be gathered back.

80.  It is God Who gives life and death, and to God the alternation of night and day.  Will you not then understand?

81.  On the contrary, they say things similar to what the ancients said.

82.  They say, "What!  When we become dust and bones, could we really be raised up again?"

83.  "Such things have been promised to us and our fathers before!  They are nothing but tales of the ancients!"

84.  Say, "To whom belong the earth and all things therein?  If you know!"

85.  They will say, "To Allah!"  Say, "Yet, will you not receive admonition?"

Ya Allah, thank You for all You have given me.  Please forgive me as I will never be able to thank 

And the winner is...

 Hi Natty!  Aw don't you worry so much, everything will work out absolutely fabulous for us inshaAllah.  Sorry I'm running late today, I had to deal with a localized power failure.  Or in other words, one of my power strips died and I can't afford to buy another one yet, so I had to shuffle around the plugs for my stuff so I could get back to work.  It was strange to behold though, the wire inside the plastic casing simply turned to dust.  I didn't know that power strips were biodegradable.  Well, that woke me up for a short while.  But now I'm getting sleepy again.  Mary's voice has changed my brain forever, I'm always feeling like I'm about to fall asleep.

Mary's outfit today is:

RazzaNova MakeUp - Full Lips - Golden Soul

Here are my picks from the Ronald van der Kemp FALL 2022 COUTURE collection:

Well, that wraps up the Fall 2022 Couture collections.  And the winner of Fall 2022 Couture is.... IRIS VAN HERPEN!!!  Hooray!  Congratulations, dahlink.  I'd give you a bite of my sardine calzone that I had for dinner, but I ate it all.  Go ahead and get yourself an ice cream.  You're a big winner!  You deserve it!

I guess I'll move to Resort 2022 next.  Fall 2022 Ready-To-Wear begins on September 1.  It doesn't look like I would get through all the Resort 2022 collections by then, so I wouldn't judge it as a competition.  Maybe.

Globule

 

Hi Natty!  Hi Honey!  I was looking for the dope mentioned in the comments.  Is that you who was smoking?  That nose looks familiar.  You have people copying your nose?  You're such a trendsetter!  Please stay clean, Honey.  You have 3 major religions fighting over you.  It's nice that you have your friends help you chill out and relax.  You probably feel like exploding, what with all the excitement.  I told you I had to crank things up a notch.  I hope that you're having lots of fun, though.  Try not to flirt, OK?  Some people think it's harmless to flirt, but it's not.  Especially for someone like you.  A lot of people are banking on our marriage besides us.  You should be well aware of that, because you're a sociologist.

Oh, I don't feel like exploding.  Quite the opposite, actually.  I feel like sleeping, but I can only sleep so much.  There's so much to do, and I'm already out of time.  Yet I have to try to take my time, and be patient.  I strive to be on God's clock.  Please be patient with me, Natty.  I love you with all of my heart.

Global

 

Hi Natty!  Hi Honey!  How are you feeling?  You must be having tons of fun, huh!  Please keep yourself safe and healthy OK!  I'm doing OK over here.  I'm not cooking any dinner tonight.  The mosque gave me some sweet gruel, and I have to finish it.  It has bananas and sweet beans in it.

The current inflation is global, and it's because of interest and cryptocurrency.  The wheat shortage proves that commodities are of greater value than interest and cryptocurrency.  Those who hold all the dollars would certainly disagree, because they can afford to pay the price for food.  What's the solution?  There is no solution, because it's the end of the world!  It's not the fault of any single government, but of human nature.  I suppose getting the wheat supply back would help.  Possibly.  Do you think people will want to bring prices down, now that they have a taste of selling at high prices?  I'm going to find out by buying a chicken.  Poultry prices have been high recently, and the merchants blame wheat.  The government says that they have imposed control over chicken prices and exports, and now there is a surplus.  So I'm going to find out by buying a chicken.  Chicken was RM6.99 per kilo 2 years ago.  Hah!  No way it's going to go back that low!  I suppose I should be grateful that it's not RM40 per kilo like beef.  Just like I should be grateful that it's the end of the world.  From Allah is our origin, and to Allah is our return.

Here's what I like from the Maison Rabih Kayrouz FALL 2022 COUTURE collection:

The supermarket

 

Hi Natty!  How are you?  I hope you're doing well over there, and life is easy for you.  I'm doing OK over here.  I just got back from sunset prayer at the mosque.  I had pasta for dinner.  The other day I made a chicken and potato pie.  It was a simple concept: chicken, potatoes, onion and Campbell's cream of chicken soup all mixed together and stuffed into a pie.  I went to the supermarket north of my house for the can of soup.  The supermarket is called "Walanmart", has a flower logo too.  But for some strange reason, they didn't have any Campbell's cream of chicken soup.  So I bought Prego pasta sauce instead, cheese and herbs flavor.  I thought that would be close enough.  It cost just about the same price, and when I opened and tasted it, it tasted just like Campbell's cream of chicken soup.  Wow.  Anyway I had some left over, so I thought I would have it with angel hair pasta for dinner.  Tasteless.  I had to add anchovy bouillon to give it some kick.
