About Anisah

            Anisah

Ainsah in Jawi

Anisah in Chinese

At times, curiosity provokes readers to find out about this person's personal details. I hate to disappoint, but there are none here beyond the following:
Muslim, woman, voter, polyglot. 

My practical heritage is Malaysian, collective memory is Straits Chinese, culture is British, outlook is Commonwealth, views are European, and my religion is Islam.  This site contains a mix-bag of entries, including but not limited to politics and political literacy,  Islam, spirituality and social justice, books and reviews, and the occasional pictures.  If you want to respond to any articles here, do leave a comment, or email me at anisah.sofia@yahoo.com.

National Christmas Open House

Right to healthBy Anisah25 December 2007 Can you imagine how many grains of sand on earth? Then imagine that there are more stars in the universe than there are grains of sand on earth.  We are then, but a tiny speck.  So then why the

Spring has arrived, hasn't it? By Anisah SofiaLondon, Sunday 23 April 2006, 12:33 BST About one week ago, I walked with a slight spring in my feet, because I have ditched my winter coat.  Yesterday, I went out with a light fleece, only to have

Bulbs from above

Wednesday, 19 April 2006 4:31 P GMT
Bulbs from above I had a paranoia about chandeliers in my childhood.  On the few occasions that I am under one, I couldn't wait to get away from beneath its canopy.  In the last place I was lodging in, there was a three bulb contruct aboe

Who am I

Friday, 24 March 2006 1:35 P GMT
Who am I? Two readers wrote to me, asking to know me, e.g. where I come from, who am I, etc. My replies to them were self reflections in themselves. I am Muslim by religion, Malaysian by citizenship, British-European by culture, Straits Chinese b

Saturday observations For lack of a catchier title, it's "Saturday observations". I straightened my lazy bag of bones, I didn't crawl back under the warm duvet after the pre-dawn prayers.  I had a cooked breakfast, yummy!  Mush

going home_where to

Friday, 3 March 2006 12:13 P GMT
Going home, but where to? Almost five years ago, a friend spoke about friends in Malaysia, and he couldn't live elsewhere because he would miss their friendship too much, over and above everything else.  I cried, thinking of my friends back hom

to write is to remember

Tuesday, 28 February 2006 8:35 P GMT
To write is to remember This is the next article, somewhat a soliloquy.  I have been reading Huo Da, a Chinese writer from Beijing.  I wished I could read Mandarin, but at the moment, I cannot.  The English translation is not smooth,

A belated journal of how I spent Christmas 2005. Disclaimer: To some "frequent" readers who know that I am a Muslim, I don't see a problem in a Muslim spending time with family and friends who are Christians.  Within my family, there

Haji

Tuesday, 10 January 2006 4:04 P GMT
Today is Eid-ul-adha, or to most Malaysians, Hari Raya Haji.  I have a spare ten minutes, and I've decided to write about it, and perhaps google might cache it for posterity? I promised a review of Ma Yan and a journal on Christmas, those will
