Words from my Heart...

This Ramadhan had turned out into such a beautiful month.... I love Ramadhan....but I don't normally like EID...maybe cos I get easily tired during Eid. I brought the kids to the masjid on Fridays/Saturday and Sunday nights for Terawih prayers... Adik waiting for solat Terawih to start So far, Abang does 12 rakaats before the qasidah break and will leave to play with his friends after that.  Adik does Solat Isyak and and a few rakaats of Terawih until she gets tired and she will wait by my side.  Mak gets to go as well...Alhamdullilah....Nani and Tok and Mamus  goes to the same masjid too so its really a family affair. I'm sure the kids enjoy it seeing family around. Mak making Dua after solat Terawih We love Masjid Abdul Razak..basically its a small quaint ' Kampong ' like Masjid and everyone is familiar by face to each other.... The kids are a regular jemaah so they are much welcome by the adults despite their a...

Hello New Office Space.... Please be good my dear Desk.....!! Lottsa changes here, more and more new colleagues coming in....we all had to give up our big boomerang tables for spurs like this....

2nd Ramadhan.... Haven't been able to fast yet.... Might be able to start this Saturday..... Kids were feeling tired,restless and seems like I'm forcing them to fast Adik is much better and strong than Abang...Abang is always hungry despite eating sahoor.  This year, Ramadhan falls on their June Holidays so I feel that it is an advantage. They get to sleep and not use their brains for school.... We broke our 1st day fast at home, just the 3 of us, Abang Man bought 2 packets of Nasi Sambal Goreng for us.... and kids had prata.... We had bubur masjid as well....Bliss.....  It was just the 3 os us....Still, Alhamdullilah, everything was calm and peaceful.  Thankful for the rezeki that was on the table. 1ST DAY IFTAR YEAR 2016

The bibik has once again "Balik Kampung" Insya'Allah back in time for Ramadhan.... I feel, she has more annual leave than any other bibiks.  But I can't bear to not allow her the frequent home visits, cos she has kids who miss her though they are big. Ive been handling the housework, like a busy ant. Never stop, always moving......  Wash, ironing, hanging clothes, clean kitchen, pick up trash around the house, prepare breakfast, clean the beds, wash toilets, wipe tables, boil water..... Washed the dishes and waited for the water to boil My best Friend; Mr Bosch I'm truly happy to be doing the chores, reminded me of the early days in my marriage before I hired a helper... Yes, I feel the fatigue. At times, I can barely open my eyes, but after a night's rest, I'd find my energy again and will go around the house, doing what ever necessary.... The kids don't help much, except Adik who loves to do dishes and wash the toilets....I...

"Daripada keelokan Islam seorang ialah meninggalkan barang yang tak berguna kepadanya...."  hadith Hasan diriwayatkan oleh Tirmidzi & lain. To me...it means...apabila kita boleh tidur awal dah tinggal kan drama TV kerana mahu bangun malam untuk bertahajjud.  #Reminder

Feeling thankful its Friday Ummi is feeling thankful, despite all the worries and uncertainties .....yesterday night got to solat malam, after some good deed done... Life is full of uncertainties...  sometimes, the best thing to do is effort,prayers and Tawakkal Too tired that after Abang's reflections homework, I slept early...but glad, I got up in the middle of the night to pray Isyak and than solat Sunat Hajat.  I try not to focus on being worried but rather, I just want to tawakkal to Allah swt and let HIM plan the best for me. He knows my stregth and weakness more than I know. HE knows whats in my heart...what are my thoughts...and how I feel and what I pray for.  What is beyond my control, I decided to let go.  Tomorrow is the night of Nisfu Syaaban (where our report books go up) sighh, how did I do this year? ....another blessed night..most likely we will be at our favourite masjid....Masjid Abdul Razak of course.... I hope the kids can benefit...

There is this little girl, whose has a face so adorable,  with curly locks and oh so reliable She came to our lives bringing lots of joy with her,  very sweet and loving, and such a dear The little sister who acts likes an older I would look for her if I ever need a shoulder she warms our hearts when days gets colder But many at times, her stubbornness  makes us scold her she has a mind of her own, and often her tantrums are full blown and would run into her room to be cry and be alone.  She would either sulk or cry loudly, I swear I'd just ignore her like I don't care... Most days, I could pinch her nose and squeeze her tight and she would allow me to, without a fight She loves to sleep in the middle of our bed and always like to giggle  when Abah hugs Ummi, she would join in too, our little girl  She is Abah's friend, when he drinks his Teh Ummi always feels left out lah wei...
