Yassin

Its been so long since I last did gathering for Yassin recital at my house..When I 1st moved into my current residential, about 8 years ago, being one of the pioneers, we were a very close knit Muslim community. Closer then we are now. Back then there were about a couple of dozens Malay families that we know of and we only had 1 surau to go. Yassin recital were held almost every fortnightly rotating from one member's house to another.

Over the years as more families moved in and as the Muslim community gets bigger, more surau were developed. Currently, we have about 4 surau within 2-3 km radius (gosh!!! what were they thinking? building too many and too near from one other) Since this happened, drama "pecah-belah" pun bermula. Everyone prefers to go to surau that is near to owns house...can't blame them..

Not really a serious "pecah belah". We were just divided..thats all. Different gangs represent different surau..tu aje..But like I said earlier, now,we are not that closed like we used to be. Since that, program keugamaan like baca Yassin cam terhenti seketika...bukan tak buat lansung, tapi jarang sangatlah didakan from house to house..sesekali tu ada la but mostly kat surau masing2.

So nak dijadikan citer, just recently when I attended one of the weekly religious class, our Ustazah mentioned about it...So , to start d ball rolling, aku pun volunteer lah tuk buat kat rumah...

It'll be held this Fri 27th April. Breakfast menu will be Nasi Lemak. I managed to get this Makcik N to cook for about 30-40 expected attendees. All I have to do is to buy all necessary ingredients that she had listed down a few days ago..amongst other things are beras basmati Faizah "Moghul", cili kering, tamarind etc.

Today aku punye lah sibuk gi pasar malam beli all the stuffs. Letihnyer bukan main...Yesterday went to Tesco for the beras. Hanya satu harapan ini, Semoga majlis itu nanti diberkati Allah..amin.
