@amirulruslan I don't even know what madani mean. Anwar likes to use high falutin language to impress people, but falls short when it comes to conveying the message.

To this day I still find it interesting and somewhat wasted that the gov't chose to emphasize its brand name as Madani not Perpaduan. Madani as a tagline is fine I guess, but Perpaduan as the brand of the grand coalition that put Anwar's Madani agenda in power is far superior.

Maybe it's not a good idea to use a platform owned by a Nazi anymore. Time to move on.

@syerleena The most important thing is one cannot offer pork to these Datuks. I'm not kidding.

ITT ejen takaful bergaduh pasal Islamic banking dengan Safdar
Safdar Alam@SafdarAlam
I understand both conventional banks and Islamic banks. Better than you. And yes. They are the same. Both profit from Riba.

@danieleskay lol, I'm talking to an expert. Yet, you're so humble.

🤔 Boleh juga la ya jika dipadankan surau dengan 'sanctuary'
animal sanctuary - surau haiwan
Daniel@danieleskay
Asasnya dari dulu 'rumah tuhan'. Bergantung pada manuskrip dan zaman, kadang maknanya disempitkan jadi tempat berlindung seperti dalam Hikayat Raja Pasai. Zaman reformasi keislaman di Minangkabau pula surau tu maknanya sangat luas: rumah ibadat, asrama, tempat mengaji dsb.

@danieleskay What is your field of study, anyway? Linguistic?

@NotSur3What Khemah in the Malay sense came from (خيمة) in Arabic. False cognate but exciting to see though!
English
@danieleskay @Soraonekun Funny, now that you mention sanctuary, it reminds me of khema in Pali (shelter, sanctuary from danger), which is similar to kemah (Indonesia) and khemah (Malay). See the Pali definition: suttacentral.net/define/khema?l… and KBBI definition

@Soraonekun Hehe boleh, tapi ngenangkan masyarakat kita ni terlalu sensitif jadi saya elakkan. Plus kita ada kata 'suaka' kan.

@danieleskay Don't need to pay. Just create an account for free to get the etymology info. The only downside is there's no channel to provide feedback if you find an error. I tried to contact KBBI to no avail. Alright, will contribute to Wiktionary.
English
@NotSur3What You're a paid member for KBBI is it? Wonderful. Yeah, since Wiktionary is a gotong-royong thing so it's quite lacking here and there. You can add and edit though. It'll be a great help for everyone.
English
@danieleskay Wiktionary en.wiktionary.org/wiki/setia and KBBI probably got the etymology wrong. It's probably derived from satī meaning chaste woman. To remain faithful (setia) to your dead husband, a non-pregnant widow must undergo self-immolation sati practice en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sati_(pra…
English
@NotSur3What Etymology always has pleasant surprises for us like that. Have you tried Wiktionary too? It's quite useful to look up word origins there.
English
@danieleskay #Malay" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">en.wiktionary.org/wiki/sapi#Malay is lacking in etymology, while KBBI put it as a word from Jawa Kuno. But it's most probably from Sanskrit because the Pali word for ghee is sappi. Not as good as KBBI
