Sacrifice ~

We come to the last month of the Muslim calendar, Zulhijjah. The month in which the 'korban festival' falls. We agreed to celebrate it on 8th december, (and as usual, the muslims in ibnu sina will be celebrating it one day earlier.For that reason, my friends and i have to go searching for the other mosque, and i am not sure yet where it will be..huhuhu..harap tak melepas solat raya only because tak jumpa masjid~mcm tahun lepas.haha). One occasion for sure will be attended is Qurban Demi CInta at alpina. I don't sacrifice anything la tapi..huhuhu..(T_T)

I always wanted to have the experiences of celebrating hari raya in places other than mine. But as far as i remember, since the 1st year of my stay in Indonesia (which is the only 'other country' i've been to), every majlis that i attended was organized by malaysian students. No differences at all. Malaysia-Indonesia ~ kita serumpun.Tapi lucky lah, we still can have it celebrated, kalau takde langsung, lagi sedih..

Dating back to the history of Islam, we all know what or which stories that have to be remembered.

i) The willingness of Nabi Ibrahim to sacrifice his beloved Nabi Ismail,to show how obedient he ALWAYS IS to the khaliq.

ii) The day when muslim pilgrims from all over the world end their journey to Mecca.

Now, let's share our care to the poor.

1. Verily, We have granted you (Muhammad,peace be upon him) Al-Kauthar (a river in Paradise);

2. Therefore turn in prayer to your Lord and sacrifice (to Him only).

3. For he who makes you angry (Muhammad pbuh), - he will be cut off (from every good thing in this world and in the Hereafter)"

(SURAH AL-KAUTSAR : AL QURAN)

I have nothing much to say now. I hope this coming aiduladha will bring at least a new 'something' in myself and all of us. Unluckily, final exam is just around the corner ~ need to focus on studying and memorizing medical literatures.huhu.
