1 trip, 4 visits

Assalamualaikum.

Another trip up North for me this weekend. It was unplanned. It was after Isyak, mak came out of the room, she was upset .... my elders brother could not take her home this Sunday as promised earlier. Knowing how she longed to be home, we agreed to send her home. Anyway we are going to Tapah to fetch Atikah and we eventually planned for a ziarah mission.

Along the highway scenery - Malaysian marble

We were off at about 9am. Reached Tapah at about 10.30am. Finished loading her one semester things into the bonnet and resume our journey. We stopped for lunch at the-never-stopped-before Rural Transformation Center (RTC) in Gopeng. The place is comfortable. Ample facilities. The food is OK. We might stop here again. At 3pm we arrived mak's house in Kg Pertama. And at about 4pm we arrived the SP house to see my brother in law was there. Its like a weekend family gathering.
Then the ziarah mission begins. 

Our first mission is to visit Aunt Rohani, the wife to abah's cousin. She's in the hospital Sultan Abdul Halim, Sg Petani. SHhe has been there for two weeks. Kidney failure on both her kidneys. She is 46. Visiting her make me realize the importance of keeping a good health. Make me appreciates the good health that Allah grant me now.

The second mission is to visit PakCik, mak's brother in law. He is 84. Admitted to same hospital two days ago for ulcer in the stomach. Looking around at the beds in the hospitals we saw people from the various walk of life with the various health problems and diseases. Old and young alike. These are the test Allah had befold upon us, to test our iman and taqwa.

The third mission is to visit Mak Teh, mak's elder sister. She's 75. She broke her foot tripping in a toilet at an RnR. Glued at her seat, we pitied her for not being able to move around gracefully as before for this time being.

Leaving this last house at about 9pm, we were very tired for being out for 12hours but happy to have completed our mission. Alhamdulillah. What is the fourth mission? The fourth mission is actually the first and foremost - to visit mak (just don't get confused- every married individual will have 2 mothers, and i like to address both as 'mak').

Sunday, we left early to avoid the traffic if any. Stopped by at Kg Pertama to say goodbye to mak. And in sha Allah we'll be back. And ... almost like usual, we will stop at the Bukit Gantang for the RM1.50 nasi lemak. And another stop at Tu Dia Pak Tam for the iced coffee.
The used to be RM1 nasi lemak

Alhamdullillah....safely arrived in Shah Alam.

Wassalam.

Asrama K.Ngah at MITST Alam Impian

Assalamualaikum. Asrama? Biasalah. Ramai yang pergi asrama. Nothing exciting about asrama. When I was a child, I used to read the story books. Series of them. We have the Famous Five, Secret Seven, Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and one of my favorite is the Malory Towers. Malory Towers tells a story about life in a boarding school. It is also a reason for me wanted to go to a hostel. It motivates me. I always thought that all hostels are as envisioned by the writer. Luxury place to stay with lots of friends around. Full of activities and adventure. But...well.... story books are mostly fictitious. It was written to draw readers into purchasing it. My hostel was far worst that what I imagined. But there is where I grew up - my teenage life. Sending K.Ngah aka. Sabrina to her hostel last Sunday, brought back the Malory Towers into me. The dorm was luxurios. Single bedded. Six in a room. Large closet. Plenty of storage space (drawers attached to the bottom of the bed). And a study

Antara Anyer dan Jakarta

"Antara Anyer dan Jakarta" was a title of a song sang by Sheila Majid back in 80s. I tried to find the meaning of "Anyer" using the Google translate but to no avail. What about the song? Nothing. It's just because I just came back from Jakarta for a conference trip cum SHOPPING trip. I was accompanied by Suzana Ahmad and Norizan. Day 1: ====== Our journey began on 12th December. At approximately 5am, the driver reached my house. Izan is already there, in a short while Suzana arrived. We headed to KLIA. The check-in was a winding queue. After checking-in it leaves us with barely enough time for fajr prayer. At 9am, the tree stooges sat foot on the Indonesia land. We make a quick visit to the money changer and proceed for a cab. We have planned for the trip carefully and agreed to travel light as we will not be checking-in to the hotel upon arrival as the checking in time is only at 3pm. Instead, we headed towards our first destination, TANAH ABANG. It is r

Doa ketika ternampak orang sakit dan mohon terhindar darinya.

Assalamualaikum, Ahad malam Isnin. Malam yang sedih sayu. Biasanya hari Ahad, adalah hari ziarah anak-anak atau hari menghantar anak-anak balik ke asrama. Upon doing that, when entering the home, I can feel the emptiness. The quiet house, no greetings, no laughters. And due to that, I will make my way to the surau, to gather bits of pearl of knowledge. "O Allah, forgive me if the reason for my being in Your masjid is wrong Forgive me, Ya Allah. But truthfully, its too quiet at home, and to me, being in the masjid is more meaningful rather than locked in the empty house alone. Forgive me Ya Allah." And tonight, it was Ustaz Firdaus. Sharing on Feqah. And one thing that I really think fruitful to share is this piece of doa.  ‘Alhamdulillah hillazi aafani mim mabtalaka bihi wa fadhalaani ala kaseerim mimman khalaqa tafdheela.” The Prophet said: “If somebody recites this dua while he saw someone else in some fatigue or tensions, he would not be involved in t
