“DON’T liken my looks to other ‘mak nyah’ who have ‘moved on’,” stressed cosmetics and beauty pioneer and owner, DSI Empire Sdn Bhd, Mohd Saifuddin Ilias.

Saifuddin, or better known as Safiey said he has gone for a series of cosmetic surgery on his face and the whole body.

“The surgery to dispose several parts were also done but I still have my old figure. For example, I managed to dispose only 30 per cent of the silicone on my face,” said Safiey in a caption of an image uploaded on his Instagram, recently.

The 22-year-old also said having a feminine feature can easily create suspicion among the public.

“At times, I have to use the Disabled People toilet as I fear that the ‘men’ run for their life if they see a ‘woman’ in the male toilet.

“If I enter the ladies’ toilet, the women recognised me. Some were bold enough to ask me if I have ‘changed’ or not. At times, I refrain myself from using the public toilets,” he added.

He hoped that the public would understand the meaning of ‘moving on’ because for him it is up to an individual, his heart and Islamic practices.

He stressed that each individual faces different tests from God, especially when one does not go through what others experience.

Safiey is fortunate as almost half a million of his Instagram followers have been supportive of his ‘hijrah’.

Jana Halim said, “no point thinking about what others say or like. Think of Allah and what He loves.

Echoing Jana, ct_hajjar said she prays that Safiey will be blessed by Allah and remain strong in facing the challenges.

“It’s okay, Allah is here, right?” said ct_hajjar.
