A tour Around Jolo, Sulu

Image
  Assalamu Alaykum! (Peace be with you!) I just realized... I haven't talked much about my videos about Sulu in this blog. I have a playlist which you can watch if you are interested in seeing (or maybe visiting?) my dear homeplace.  Just check it out here: JOLO, SULU PLAYLIST You can watch this instead:      Yup, that is all for today.   PS. I am mulling over the idea of transferring my blog from blogspot to wordpress...  hmmmmmm

Ha pagsilak na mán sin matasuga, in lindum sin dum limabay inut-inut na simawa. Alhamdulillah, hambuuk adlaw na isab in sung tumagna’. Hambuuk adlaw, diyuhal kátu’ sin Tuhan Bayng ulungun, ha supaya marayaw natu’ pa in manga salla’, mapabuntul in manga bingkuk, iban kalanuan in manga bakas kiyalummi’an.

Ha pagbati’ ku kaina maynaat, pagsiyb ku pa tandawan, masi-masi pa tigidlum in langit ha taas, wayruun pa in si’nag sin sugha. Sa’ misan bihadtu na malindum, in sawa sin manga kabáy-báyan ha tilibutan namu’ iban sin manga kabildingan naglalanjangan na; sambil in hibuk sin manga sasakatan nagdaragan misan lisag upat pa sin maynaat, hambuuk panumtum káku’ sin wala’ na tuud aku ha hula’ ku kalasahan. Yari na isab aku ha hula’ daira Manila, tumukbal sin miyaksud ku riy: mag-iskul.

Bang hadja mahinang bunnal in manga tagaynup, marai’ matug na aku balik. Pasal ha taygaynup ku, yadtu aku ha hula’ ku. Ha tagaynup ku, nag-aagad kami iban manga sila kalasahan ku, hi Inah ku, in manga taymanghud ku. Ha tagaynup ku, wayruun na aku dugaing kasusahan pasal in katan naagad na ha kabayaan namu’ katan. Sa’ biya’ da isab sin tagaynup ku pagtuwgan, nakabati’ da aku. Biya’ sapantun si’nag sin suga, timampal káku’ sin yari na in kasabunnálan ku biháun. Wayruun na aku ha lawn tagaynup ku, kailu.

Amun tuwy (3) dum limabay yaun, didtu pa aku ha bay natuwg ha tilam-tilam piyagsasawhan ku iban manga manghud ku. Pagduwm hambuuk, didtu na aku ha taas kappal, nagpa-anud ha dagat. Pagbalik didtu na aku ha bay sin inaun ku, ha Samboangan (wayra aku nakatuwg pasal mahibuk in manga magbubustak pasal New year nila). Kabii, yari na aku ha bilik-bilik namu’, isa-isa ku ra iban Electric fan ku.

“In pilangka bulan limabay biya’ ra sin kahapun yaun,” Agi ku pa baran ku bat aku di’ na magdrama diy ha guwa’-guwa’ sin bilik namu’ ini, “Hangkanda, manjari ta iyanun in pila bulan pa lumabay ini biya’ da isab sin kunsum dumatung da, In shaa Allah.” Kalagihan ku ra kuman in magsabar; tumagad sin tiyap-tiyap si’nag sin sugha sampay dumatung in adlaw yadtu amun makabalik na isab aku pa Lupa’ Sug, kasilayan na isab in hula’ ku iban sin sila manga kalasahan ku. In shaa Allah. In shaa Allah.

Dai’-dai’  pa yaun, kiyta’ ku na in si’nag sin sugha ha subangan kimanat na pa kalangitan. Nagpahati sin hambuuk adlaw na isab in timagna’, Alhamdulillah. Iban subay magsaddiya na aku madtu.

Sulu Hidden History: The remnants of Sulu Parula (Parola) -part 2

Image
From an American-built lighthouse to a Tausug-built Masjid. The search for the missing “Eye-Fall tower” did not take me long to finish for three reasons:  I already know where to look for it (the wharf in Jolo);  The people in that community are pretty friendly; and  The Sulu National Museum gave me all the answers.  What I just did then is visit the place and confirm the site where it still stands now, talk with the people around, link the stories and tadaa! Mission accomplished! And so, ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to present to you all, the Sulu Parula (Parola), then and now… The Sulu Parula (Parola) and the  Block House This is one of the oldest photos linked to our missing structure: the Sulu lighthouse, commonly known to the locals as the “Parula”. This photo of a building IS NOT the actual parula, but actually the "office" of the coast guards known to most as the “Block House”. This photo can also be found in one of the photo archives in

The May 1 Tuli Mission

Image
Joining Muslim Doctors (MD) for a Tuli Mission Alhamdulillah, a few days ago, a good friend of mine told me that the young medical students from Ateneo de Zamboanga University School of Medicine (ADZU-SOM) were here in Manila for a surgical mission. Their group was known as the Muslim Doctors (or M.D.). I went to visit them that day and to my delight, they invited us to join their event last May 1, 2016 at Mahabba Islamic Center in San Andres Bukid, Malate, Manila. I immediately informed the members of UP-Association of Muslim Students (UP-AMS) and Alhamdulillah, 5 of them volunteered to join me. I learned later on that another friend and fellow medical student from another school will also join. First meeting with the MD team I was on ER Duty the night before, and honestly I did not get much sleep before the event. But Alhamdulillah, I was not feeling that sleepy maybe because of the excitement! I met with my members right after my duty and went to the venue where w
