QA: Sahur and Kuih Raya

During the bowling session last Tuesday, the ladies have planned to bake kuih raya and group sahur on Thursday. Thursday is the only choice since Friday is an off day. Some of us work on Saturday, so Friday night is out too. The plan has been set and today is the day.

NN came to iftaar with me at my place and then, together with Zal, we went for a tarawih prayer at the usual mosque. The tarawih here, depending on the mosque finishes at 8:15pm.

At 9:30pm, we reached AI's mansion. AAH and his family were already there. AAH wife brought the Nasi Lemak that I have asked.. thank you.. thank you...

While the ladies preparing the stuff for the cookies, the guys were busy eating.. late supper :-) There were Nasi Lemak, Baked Macaroni, Chicken Curry and Bihun Sup.

Then, the ladies started mixing, pounding, heat the oven etc.. the guys were busy baby sitting and for me, dozed off into wonderland.. :-)) so guys,I was so tired.

At

3:30am, we had our sahur - feel like a very big happy family....

Everybody said goodbye after fajr prayer at the nearby surau....

Thank you all... I will treasure this moment forever....

MY: Last Sahoor for this Ramadan

Just completed my last sahoor for this Ramadhan. InsyaAllah, dipanjangkan umur and I will have another Ramadhan to experience.

As I am writing this, it is 7 minutes countdown to Fajr prayer. Plans for today, pay my zakat fitrah and strolling around my hometown.

Looking back at this year Ramadhan, I wish I had done lots of good deeds i.e., sadaqah - but I cannot turn back time. Hope Allah accepts all good deeds I have done so far and forgives all the sins I have committed... Ameen...

And I am also dissapointed for not being able to complete reciting the whole Qura'an during this year's Ramadhan as I did previously... Am I too busy with my life in the world and forget the life after? May Allah forgives me...

[pinjam quote from a friend...]

"Truly, my prayer and my service of sacrifice, my life and my death are (all) for Allah, the Sustainer of the universe"
