People knew her as M.I.A. She's an artist in US.

Mathangi "Maya" Arulpragasam (Tamil: மாதங்கி 'மாயா' அருள்பிரகாசம்; born 18 July 1975),^[1] better known by her stage name M.I.A., is a British singer-songwriter, rapper and record producer whose eclectic compositions combine elements of hip-hop, electronica, dance, avante-garde, alternative and world music (wikipedia)

Some people stand over her. Some are against her. What's her purpose doing that?

However, in US, they are some non muslims that loved to wear hijab or even niqab! How very inquisitive they are. Trying to wear hijab as they try acting as Muslims and learn about Islam at the same time.

Muslim by birth and believer by choice
To be a Muslim by birth, it is easy. But how far we practice Islam in our daily life, it should be emphasized. Enough for me to write for now, but I loved to keep the word unchanged for me and you to ponder.

Muslim by birth, believer by choice.

Muslim by birth, believer by choice.

Muslim by birth, believer by choice.

Let's ponder on this. Dedicated for me myself especially.

1. Al-Ankabuut (2)

Sahih International

Do the people think that they will be left to say, "We believe" and they will not be tried?

Muhsin Khan

Do people think that they will be left alone because they say: "We believe," and will not be tested.

Malay

Patutkah manusia menyangka bahawa mereka akan dibiarkan dengan hanya berkata: "Kami beriman", sedang mereka tidak diuji (dengan sesuatu cubaan)?

2. At-Taubah (111)

Sahih International

Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties [in exchange] for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah , so they kill and are killed. [It is] a true promise [binding] upon Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. And who is truer to his covenant than Allah ? So rejoice in your transaction which you have contracted. And it is that which is the great attainment.

Malay

Sesungguhnya Allah telah membeli dari orang-orang yang beriman akan jiwa mereka dan harta benda mereka dengan (balasan) bahawa mereka akan beroleh Syurga, (disebabkan) mereka berjuang pada jalan Allah maka (di antara) mereka ada yang membunuh dan terbunuh. (Balasan Syurga yang demikian ialah) sebagai janji yang benar yang ditetapkan oleh Allah di dalam (Kitab-kitab) Taurat dan Injil serta Al-Quran; dan siapakah lagi yang lebih menyempurnakan janjinya daripada Allah? Oleh itu, bergembiralah dengan jualan yang kamu jalankan jual-belinya itu, dan (ketahuilah bahawa) jual-beli (yang seperti itu) ialah kemenangan yang besar.

3. As-Saff (10-11)

Sahih International

O you who have believed, shall I guide you to a transaction that will save you from a painful punishment?

Malay

Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Mahukah Aku tunjukkan sesuatu perniagaan yang boleh menyelamatkan kamu dari azab seksa yang tidak terperi sakitnya?

Sahih International

[It is that] you believe in Allah and His Messenger and strive in the cause of Allah with your wealth and your lives. That is best for you, if you should know.

Malay

Iaitu, kamu beriman kepada Allah dan rasulNya, serta kamu berjuang membela dan menegakkan ugama Allah dengan harta benda dan diri kamu; yang demikian itulah yang lebih baik bagi kamu, jika kamu hendak mengetahui (hakikat yang sebenarnya).
