Online Shopping Malaysia - Tips for A Safe Shopping Experience

Assalamualaikum wbt
All praises to Allah SWT and His Messenger

Hi peeps. Hope you are doing well. Reading the blog title today, will surely bring you down to browse through the content of this blog. Guilty as charged, I admit, I am also among the shoppers that enjoy online shopping when it comes to certain things.

As a consumer and customer, it is best for us to be cautious at all times, especially when it comes to online shopping. Whether the payment is secure, whether it's not spam or etc. So, here are some useful tips for us to take note for a safe shopping experience.







Online shopping has become a new trend in our society these days as people are getting caught up in the many roles in life. From careers, family and other responsibilities, people will find a hard time to go out and enjoy some shopping. However, with the extensive growth of brands going online and the existence of shopping websites, everything could be bought with just a click of a button. Although online shopping seems to be the easy route to enjoy yourself, take into account a few tips for a safe shopping experience.

First and foremost, make sure that the website you are surfing on is a legitimate one. Use familiar websites which are trusted by many rather than shopping on a random one. Beware of websites which are using misspelled words or different domains as it may be a rip off. 
 

Make sure the sign as above is shown in your URL address

Next, before you make any purchase, you have to make sure there is a lock sign at the url. Never enter your bank details and purchase something from a website that has no lock sign that normally appears on the status bar of your browser or next to the url address. You do not want someone else to be collecting your details and draining your account online. This is a very important note to be remembered always when you are online shopping.


Another tip is to always give necessary or related information for your purchase. Do not give all info online as the more information you give, the more crooks can use your identity. If it is possible, only give information which are required by default to lessen the amount of details you give out on the internet. Fortunately, there are various shopping sites which provide a safe and secure payment method for their customers and this includes ZALORA. ZALORA is one of Asia’s online shopping destinations which offers a wide range of well-known brands for their customers to enjoy. If you are looking for a credible shopping site, ZALORA is definitely a perfect choice. 


So, happy shopping and most importantly, make sure you are purchasing from a credible website!

English for Professional Communication

Assalamualaikum wbt All praises to Allah SWT and His Messenger Greetings readers! As stated above, in this entry I would like to share about the course that I am taking at present. It is a course from the Academy of Language Studies at Universiti Teknologi Mara(UiTM). It is very rare to find people that know about this course. Dialogue 1 A: Eh, what are you studying now? Me: English for Prof Comm A: ...........??? So, what is that actually? Dialogue 2 A: Anyway, what are you taking now? Me: Language studies A: Oh.. TESL eh. Me: ....................... or very very very rare, Dialogue 3 A: What course did you take? Me: English for Prof Comm A: Ohh..ok.

Believe me. And if you are really good in English, which I am still working on t...

Sleepless night to remember

Assalamulaikum wbt All praises to Allah SWT and His Messenger Hello. Upon writing this post, I am at a state where I can no longer open my eyes to continue doing my work. My friends and I are at Level 9 Menara at this late hour, yup (for those who know the history.........hahahaa.....). It's kind of our lepak place for wifi, for just us. Alhamdulillah. Our journey are coming to its end. So far, we are done with two of our professional presentations. It was a nerve-wrecking and sleepless experience on preparing the text and searching for information and practice and what not for the presentation. Nevertheless, I enjoy every last moment of it. Even now, it is just so difficult to finish up my thesis and do the amendments needed, I choose not to fret and just keep on continuing these difficult times as I believe I will be reminiscing these times later in the future. InsyaAllah, everything will end this Monday. My prayers to all of us, myself and my friends, that we...

Lailatul Qadar

Assalamualaikum wbt. All praises to Allah SWT & His Messenger. Lailatul Qadar is the night that is better than a thousand months. For those who sincerely devote oneself on that night will be granted with His countless blessings. Refer Surah Al-Qadr. What makes the event more special is that the time of it's occurrence is unknown. There are no exact dates in Ramadhan on when Lailatul Qadar is. The only thing that is known is that it may occur on any odd dates among the last 10 days of Ramadhan So, it is a chase for all Muslims. Which is good as it motivates us and myself to pray harder and do more ibadah especially during the last 10 days of Ramadhan to have the pahala of 1000 months. Which is when you convert, equals to pahala of 83 years! Allahuakbar. Subhanallah. There are many other ways or action that we can do during the last 10 days of Ramadhan. One of the most crucial, and this is in my own opinion, is to recite the Doa below all the time. We the imperf...
