Hari Raya in Brunei (I)

The moon's not sighted in Brunei so Monday's the first Syawal for us. We make use of Sunday's time to bake last minute cake and biscuit, and preparing our living room while listening to some hari raya songs on the radio :) That night I pack my bags for this 30th of August,my departure to United Kingdom:'( Eventhough it's hard to do so, there's nothing that I can do. My things won't pack by itself(I keep on reminding myself)



Monday
First day of Syawal and like every year,we ate special hari raya food like ketupat,rendang and satay which was cooked specially by my mother in the early morning(ofcourse i help to prepare too). We took some family pictures then we visit our grandmothers' houses and some relatives. Hari Raya is always special as it gathers families together and there are lots of good movies on tv!

The time has come for my annual activity with my best friends. Sungkai dirumah saya~This have been our annual activity since 2007:0

Rasululah s. a. w. bersabda; "Puasa itu bagaikan perisai, maka apabila seseorang kamu berpuasa, jangan berkata kotor dan jangan berkata kasar. Jika seseorang mencacinya atau menyerangnya maka hendaklah dia mengatakan. Aku ini puasa." - Sahih Bukhari

Apart from just an annual sungkai, it is also a farewell gathering before me and Khairah(one of my best friendS) take off for UK at the end of this august to resume A Level studies there.Too bad Nina cannot come:(~ Semoga persahabatan kami berkekalan. No end to it
Sahabat yang menunjukkan kebaikan kepada kamu, adalah sahabat yg baik. Dan sahabat yang menunjukkn kesalahan kamu, adalah sahabat yg paling baik

Ramadhan,Kpg Menengah


15 Ramadhan..Sunny day in Bandar Seri Begawan...
16 Ramadhan Chilly night in Tutong
Its time to break our fast with my bucu(uncle) and my beloved nini. The food are all cooked by mother and packed namely bubur chacha durian, the ever delicious mee goreng(my favourite:d), assorted kuih and some fresh fruits! Ready to surprise my nini with these delicacies!hehe.

Rasulullah saw bersabda: “Puasa itu merupakan perisai yang dapat menghalangi seorang hamba dari panasnya siksa api neraka” (HR. Ahmad).

6.37 The Azan Maghrib prayer on the radio filled the living room. Sungkai ;)

Aleesya here commenting on the food :

Tarawikh prayer.First time this year performing tarawikh at Masjid Kpg Menengah,Tutong which is opposite my nini’s house.Quite breezy outside,perfect for night like this~

Beside me, a little girl,performing tarawikh just like the elders. I was impressed. Between prayers, she smiled and at one time, she asked “siapa nama kaka~”.Cute hospitality?haha.Her name is Wani and here I note it so I won’t forget herJ

Salam Ramadhan

The first few days of Ramadhan is always a tough challenge for muslims worldwide. But it won't take so long for us to get use to it. It's the time of the year to get together with families, friends and get closer to Allah. There are still alot of activities to do,gatherings to attend,packing to be done(for me):)
Salam Ramadhan Al-Mubarak
