Thank you for dropping...Assalamualaikum Al Manar, <br /><br />Thank you for dropping by and that delightful and interesting comment. Reading a comment from a post written in my earlier blogging days was quite strange, I must say. Just for the records, I have come across your name and dropped by your blog several times in the past. <br /><br />Contrary to my recent intention to continue writing, I am yet unable to keep my word and share my reflections with the public. Do hang around and insyaAllah I'll be back..

It is customary that, if I fancy a blog, I like to know how it started, purpose of blogging etc. You wrote 'I hope to reflect on life using a more Islamic perspective, a bonus for Muslim writers'. That is good.<br /><br /> A blog that attracts me must at least satisfy the first condition. It has to be written seriously, in a proper language, English or Malay - never a 'bastardised' English or a 'rojak' Malay. Secondly, a blogger must have the courtesy of acknowledging a visitor’s comment. I do not write in Malay because my Malay is substandard – ancient Zaaba’s tastabahasa and spelling. <br /><br />Here, in your first posting you spelt out why you wanted to blog and the subjects you intended to cover. I hope you do not mind my leaving my first remark here. I may leave comments as I go along your past postings. Good blogs do not age in contents. They are footsteps in time. Thank you and my apology for this unnecessarily lengthy start. <br />Al-Manarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07203360858632549270noreply@blogger.com
