5 tips to get a good job in Saudi Arabia.

Is it your first time working abroad? Because I am! and I'm happy to share how I got here in Saudi Arabia, working in the best working place. Yes, it is true! It's a nice working place where they give you food allowance, 110% payment for overtime, housing and transportation allowance if you live outside the accommodation, and of course the service award after working 2 years or more than 10 years.

Not everyone has this same situation. Some of us expected to have a nice boss, a decent job, and a good working environment, yet all of this was just the dream of some Filipinos who got deceived. Except if we are all going to be more wise and do some research before deciding where to apply, it's not going to happen to you. That is why I'm here to share some tips, so we are all going to be on the same page.

1. Do not rush: Before going to Manila, try to look for a job first on workabroad.com or on Jobstreet. List down the job position, name of agency, address of agency, and name of employer; all of these details are listed on Workabroad.com.

2. Research: Now, after listing all the details of your targets, Google everything about the agency; are they trusted? Do they have awards? Next, Google the employer company; are they owned by the government? private company? or just another agency here or abroad?

3. Be wise: Find an agency in Manila that is legal and can be trusted. Read some laws from POEA on how to know if an agency can be trusted, so we can avoid being cheated.

4. Do not apply to a subsidiary: If you saw on Google that the employer is just another agency here in KSA, do not apply to it! Did you see those Filipinos complaining about not having salaries? These agencies are guilty. Some agencies give salaries, but they will not be as big as you expected. So, I suggest you try to be wise in doing your research and make sure you're not going to be under the control of an agency.

5. Apply to a company owned by the government. Yes, it is true. I am currently working for the government. And there are a lot of fellow Filipinos that are also working here; most of them have been with this company for almost 16 years. Some have already left and received their service awards. So, this is the best tip that I can give: apply to a company under the government because they will give you a lot of benefits.

How to get OMA certificate in Manila?

Assalamualaykum! Today, I will be sharing how to get a "Certificate of Muslim Filipino Tribal Membership" and a "Certificate of Confirmation of Conversion to Islam," also known as an OMA Certificate.   When I converted to Islam, I didn't have any idea about the OMA certificate until I decided to go to Saudi Arabia; that's the only time I discovered that I needed it for visa stamping.   I've written this because not everyone knows where to go or how to get it. The good news is that the OMA certificate is completely free! and you can have it in just 30 minutes. Now, let me guide you step-by-step on how to get it. Note :  The policy and process might change, as I have written this 2017 Comment down below if you have experienced a new policy; it will be very helpful to others.   Let's make sure first that you have all the requirements that you need.   For born Muslims; a xerox copy of Aqeeqa -xerox copy of passport - 1 piece of 2x

The Essential Role of a Muslim Woman in Society

I grew up in a small town where you’ll find mansions that were built at the time of the Spanish Colonial. These ancestral houses are captivating and still standing firm like the Mount Makiling that you’ll get a glimpse of from our balcony. This is my hometown where my grandmother raised me. My grandmother got married at a very young age to an older man who came from a well-off family. She was illiterate and could only write her name for signing legal papers. She sacrificed her early age to look after her younger siblings, which caused her not to attend school. But despite this, she is contemplative, selfless, affectionate, and a loving daughter. Even with her husband's problematic habits and age difference, she remained committed to being a dutiful wife. She neither disrespected her husband nor rebelled against him. Her passion for keeping the house tidy, and cooking delicious dishes are among her skills to please my grandfather, and I admire her for that. "Men are in charge o

Allah is sufficient

Wealth is everyone's dream and trial. Rich or poor, we all want and need money. And with this, Allah tests us. Will you remain grateful? patient? What do we do when we finally have it? Some of us desperately want this because we are tired of being mocked, belittled, and cut because we somehow have nothing to offer. But why do we want to please these people? When Allah himself doesn't like these individuals who prefer this world. Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala said: مَنْ كَفَرَ بِا للّٰهِ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ اِيْمَا نِهٖۤ اِلَّا مَنْ اُكْرِهَ وَقَلْبُهٗ مُطْمَئِنٌّ بِۢا لْاِ يْمَا نِ وَلٰـكِنْ مَّنْ شَرَحَ بِا لْكُفْرِ صَدْرًا فَعَلَيْهِمْ غَضَبٌ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ ۚ وَلَهُمْ عَذَا بٌ عَظِيْمٌ "Whoever disbelieves in Allah after his belief, except for one who is forced [to renounce his religion] while his heart is secure in faith, but those who [willingly] open their breasts to disbelief, upon them is wrath from Allah, and for them is a great punishment;" ذٰلِكَ ب
