Eid Mubarak - 1 Syawal 1430

I would like to wish Eid Mubarak to all Muslims....we say "Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri" in Malaysia. The Great Day of Eid is celebrated today 20 October 2009.

This is the Day of Victory for the faithfuls.

It's time for celebration but don't forget to follow through what we learn from the 'University of Ramadan'. Piousness and piety are not only for 1 month....it is a lifelong duty.

It's also time for forgiveness and reconciliation.

Therefore I seek forgiveness from everyone...my sincere apology, brothers and sisters.

Look forward for your continuous support.

Friday Prayer with His Royal Highness The King of Malaysia

Today I got a very rare opportunity to meet His Royal Highness the King of Malaysia, Tengku Mizan Zainal Abidin ("Yang DiPertuan Agong" as we call it in Malaysia)

I happened to peform the weekly Friday prayer at Masjid Al Najihin in Kuala Lumpur, where His Royal Highness visited today. He would perform Friday prayers at different mosque every week in order to meet the people (or "rakyat") from various locations in the country.

In case you are wondering, in the picture, I am wearing blue shirt and white prayer cap. The King is wearing the Malay traditional costume (with black cap). Long Life to the King! May Allah bless you and protect our wonderful and peaceful country.

A speaker at Asian Economic Conference 2009: “Has Asia’s Time Come To Shine & To Be Positioned As a Global Leader?

I was given the opportunity to present the Islamic finance solutions to global economic crisis at the Asian Economic Conference 2009 held at Hotel Istana Kuala Lumpur on 18-19 May 2009 organised by Asian World Summit.

I feel so humbled to share the stage with world-class speakers which include New York Times bestselling author John Assaraf (USA), a former finance minister (Japan) , a former UN representative (Korea), a university professor (Hong Kong) and a top economist (Spain)...the giants in their fields of expertise.

Thanks Asian World Summit for inviting me to represent Malaysia in this conference.

A special month of May

May 2009 could be very special month for me. Not only it is a my birth month, it could be a major turning point in my consulting and training business, insyaAllah (God's willing).

Many positive indications pointing towards doing major consulting, advisory and training projects in Islamic banking, finance, business and property (Islamic city project) in 4 countries (Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and an African country) starting from May 2009. I will provide consultation and training in the setting up of a new Islamic bank in a South East Asian country and consultation and training for a central bank of an African country on Islamic banking system.

It will be a very busy month in May. Come what may....may Allah help me.

It is time for me to deliver and honour my obligations....It is time to fly....
