Queenie Padilla: "When I was in showbiz, I was very unhappy. Actually, I already quit [showbiz] like eight months [ago], since my last appearance on TV. I was lost and I always felt I never belong. But now that Allah is in my life, Alhamdullilah, La illa illalah, I am so happy and content in my life."

Tuluyan nang iniwan ni Queenie Padilla ang mundo ng showbiz.

Si Queenie ang panganay na anak ng action star na si Robin Padilla sa dati nitong asawa na si Liezl Sicangco.

Ayon sa report ni Charles Tabbu ng ABS-CBN News kahapon, Nobyembre 21, pinili ni Queenie na sundin ang buhay ng isang Muslim.

 

"Islam is a way of life," paliwanag ng dalaga.

"When you start to [become a] Muslim, you know [what] your life purpose really is.

"I am such a sinful person, but Allah invited me to his house. I am so close to him."

HAPPY AND CONTENTED. Napagdesisyunan ni Queenie na tuluyan nang iwan ang showbiz matapos niyang sumali sa Hajj nitong taon.

Ayon sa BBC.com, ang Hajj ay isang "ritual that is designed to promote the bonds of Islamic brotherhood and sisterhood by showing that everyone is equal in the eyes of Allah."

Huling napanood si Queenie sa pelikulang TUM: Pledge of Love (2011), na pinagbidahan ng kanyang ama at bagong asawa nitong si Mariel Rodriguez.

Ilan din sa mga ginawa niyang teleserye noon ay Totoy Bato (2009) at Momay (2010).

Ngayong nakabalik na siya mula sa Hajj, doon lang muling naramdaman ng dalaga ang maging "happy and contented."

"When I was in showbiz, I was very unhappy," pag-amin ni Queenie.

"Actually I already quit [showbiz] like eight months [ago], since my last appearance on TV.

"I was lost and I always felt I never belong.

"But now that Allah is in my life, Alhamdullilah, La illa illalah, I am so happy and content in my life."

Sa bagay na ito, malaki ang pasasalamat ni Queenie sa amang si Robin, dahil sa pagpapakilala nito ng relihiyong Islam sa kanila ng mga kapatid niyang sina Kylie, Zhen-Zhen, at Ali.

    NOSEBLEEDERS, I haven't read the q'uran.. pero sa posts mo... natakot mo ako dun ha! LOL! but lucky you, nagkaroon ka ng chance to read the Q'uran ha..anyway, kanya kanyang opinion yan lalo na sa religion.. if she finds peace with Allah, so be it.. pero sa akin.. solid Roman Catholic po ako. ito ang kinagisnan kong religion, ito rin ang religion at paniniwala hanggang sa huli kong hininga.

    lastly, I love all the muslim people, what amazed me is they are much even nicer than christians its not about the people but its about what they have been instilled in there mind. Up to now I am on my knees asking Jesus to save my husband coz nobody at the end will meet us, only Him who purchased us by his blood...watch youtube ex muslim khalil para may information...kailangan natin ng info at kailangan natin magbasa, u dont have to pray 5x, just on your knees and talk to him, have a reationship with him, no amount of duties will redeem us from our sin...

    kung nag stay ka sana sa GMA 7 at napasama ka sa tweenhearts ay siguradong uusbong ang iyong career, hindi ka naman aasahan na maging big star ka kahit anong network ka man, pero kung mapabilang ka sa teen oriented grp, the most popular grp in the Philippines na Tweenhearts is a big plus na sa career mo lalo na't teen ager ka pa lang na nagsisimula. kaya nga yung mga former That's entertainment member noon ay masasabing mga bigatin na ng industrya ng showbiz.

    I think we should respect her decision to leave and fulfill her obligation as Muslim.Gusto niyang maging devoted Muslim, let her. Wag na tayong manghusga.

    Wala kasi masyadong friends kaya parang eternally sad. Perhaps di bagay yung showbiz. Balik school ka na lang. Meron akong mga classmates na Muslim na babae, they start thinking that they are happy, but when the arrange marriage and all the limitations start becoming evident dun nila nari-realize that they are trapped in a life that is sad, prejudiced and lonely. Baka ang ending mo ay maging asawa ng isa sa mga kaibigan ng Tatay mo. Haaaayyyy.
