There were a few versions of legend stories & one of it mentioned that an orphanage revenge to his uncle that didn’t share the harvest from the said rice paddy field, so a punishment

While from the science perspective, it’s due to the wave erosion over the years 🌊 In this connection, the rocks surrounding the Tanjung Piandang beach area as observed are built with aims to prevent further damages from the strong waves 🌊 moving forward. Hence, it’s also known by the locals here as Pantai Roboh or Pantai Rock

Softshell Crabs 🦀 Farm & Restaurant

SiennyLovesDrawing loves to enjoy softshell crabs 👩🏻😋💯🦀 whenever dining in Japanese restaurants

Guessing what❓⁉️

She always thought that softshell crab is a crab species on its own. Then, she has just learnt about how to farm the softshell crab 🦀 from this recent visit to Kuala Gula

It’s actually a 💯% man made with specific skills to farm the softshell crab from mud crab (aka ketam nipah) in Malaysia 🇲🇾 Yes ✅, it requires high skills set according to the founder of JS Muara Restoran Terapong Kuala Gula & Kelong, so that this whole farming process actually not hurting the crabs 🦀, hmm…🤔💭💬

SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 understands briefly that it requires to remove the crawls & 6 legs of the crab 🦀 with skills. Then, the crab will regrow its shell & legs during its molting process, it will  change its shell eventually within approximately 4 weeks. It forms a softshell from its regrow process

Hmm… Personally to SiennyLovesDrawing’s taste preference, it’s slightly too much flour & hence not very crispy crunchy to enjoy.

It’s a special series of programmes organized by ITC with its various strategic partners to share & deliver the latest information on a variety of contemporary topics from an Islamic perspective, including health, nutrition, spirituality, current issues etc.

In this connection, this 1️⃣-day programme ~ The 11th S.E.E.D Muslim-Friendly Tourist Guide (MFTG) ~ Central Region with its strategic partner ~ Nasyrul Quran Complex has gathered approximately 20pax  MFTG from the Central Region in Malaysia 🇲🇾 to share updates on the latest information on Islamic Tourism, Putrajaya as an ideal Muslim-Friendly destination, ITC’s latest developments in the Muslim-Friendly tourism space & 1️⃣st-hand feedback/input from its tour guides who have been certified as Muslim-Friendly tour guides

This programme covers as below,

Nasyrul Quran Complex

All gathered to attend an introductory briefing & an exclusive tour of Nasyrul Quran Complex in Putrajaya, the 2️⃣nd largest al-Quran printing & production facility in the world 🌎 Yayasan Restu has received 60 million funding from government to build & construct this building

This NGO with aims to spread al-Quran across the globe 🌍 & any proceeds received will be donated to the communities in need. It’s with the printing of al-Quran in different languages here

Yes✅, after the world 🌎 largest al-Quran production centre ie. King Fahd Complex in Madinah, Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦

SiennyLovesDrawing had visited this complex before, it remains the same, no major changes. Do read more of her 1️⃣st visit via 🌐 https://siennylovesdrawing.wordpress.com/2019/11/26/must-do-putrajaya-malaysia/

IMG_20230610_125813

This 2️⃣nd visit, she has learnt that Mushaf meant that all by hands eg. Drawing, calligraphy, colouring etc. of the al-Quran production process. The calligraphy staff here are well trained by the India 🇮🇳 & Pakistan 🇵🇰 calligraphers. There are 25 original Mushaf being collected & stored in gallery to-date as the references since its establishment with different languages translations. On average, approximately 15K copy of al-Quran printing produced here daily

Some of the important notes from its 🔟 steps of al-Quran production process;

  • Step 4 by all females for their great 👍🏻 patience & detailed works
  • Step 6 Required for about 6 to 7 years to complete
  • Step 8 Required JAKIM approval

The usage of natural ink/ dye from plants for calligraphy. Green 💚 is a sacred colour & meant for heaven in Islam ☪️, while red colour ❤️ symbolizes the life force. Both are important colours for Muslims. The natural ink is added in with palm oil 🌴 so the calligraphy done will stay longer

All motif for al-Quran are unique to the geography, culture of the respective countries

While browsing through the galleries, SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻🤩 got impressed with the calligraphy crafted on the 🗡️ “Pedang” ie. Sword which required really detailed art & skills. Please note that visitors are not allowed to touch any, only view it with eyes 👀

The costing of an original copy of al-Quran is RM100 where RM25 paid for the natural paper supply (Direct from trees, not recycle paper) from Indonesia 🇮🇩 15K copies will be printed in a year & some being exported to Muslims minority countries eg. Nigeria 🇳🇬

A proper disposal of al-Quran is whether burnt / buried it by authorized personnel

Highly recommended to visit this complex

It’s 🆓 admission with modest & decent dress code requirements. 🆓 robe rental is available ✅ for females visitors 👭👭🏻 Just like SiennyLovesDrawing wore on comfortably at the entrance to start this 1️⃣-day programme
