Assalamualaikum..
Since 25th Dec aku duduk sorunk kat rumah ni. Last practical exam 24th, so esok nya ramai yang gerak balik ke Malaysia. Tapi sebabkan aku cancle tiket jalan-jalan India,so aku kene stay kat sini. Train aku ke Chenai on 31st Dec,and flight dr sana on 2nd Jan. Kira kali ni aku sambut new year dalam train ah (bersama2 tempe)
Agak cuak gak nak pegi Chenai sorunk2. Tak de idea langsung pasal banda tu. Tapi menurut kata kawan-kawan aku, bandar ni standard bandar2 lama India seperti Mumbai dan Delhi..pendek kata padat penduduk dan agak kurang teratur. Compare dengan Bangalore yang merupakan bandar baru India,mestilah Bangalore lebih cool..hehehe..
So dalam mengisi masa cuti sorunk2 di Mangalore ni, aku pun decide nak pergi Manipal je. Kali ni tak de lah aku pergi naik motor,penat ah bawak motor sorunk2 2 jam..so aku naik bus je. Aku kira lucky ah,time macam ni lah kat Manipal ade Lagenda. Lagenda ni kira malam di mana student Malaysia buat persembahan. Lagenda pada malam ahad. Nak dijadikan cerita,nasib aku bertambah best bila budak2 KDU buat party..konon nya membalas open house yang mereka janjikan sejak raya puasa yang lepas.hehhee..tp ok lah..janji makan. Terima kasih semua..
Pagi ahad tu, kira sebelum Lagenda, kitorunk plan pergi Malpe beach..aku,Hafiz, Firdaus, Afiq, Khairil dan Aswan (nama penuh tu..) sebabkan jalan yang sepatutnya tutup, so kene ikut jalan baru. Gerak pukul 7 lebih kot..sejuk gila ah. Tapi best aja,layan sejuk2 di pagi hari. Sampai je sana,kami lepak2 'melayan' tempe yang asyik bermandi-manda. Lepas dah agak bosan, trus je pergi jeti Malpe,beli udang dan sotong untuk dimasak tengah hari nanti. Pergh,manis gile ah udang tu, sebab udang baru kot. Memang layan habis.
Malam Lagenda mula kul 6.30 petang. Tapi kitorunk pergi lepas magrib ah. Actually aku tak delah semangat mana nak layan Lagenda ni,sebab aku rasa benda sama je akan jadi..tarian rakyat Malaysia,fashion show pastu nyanyi. Tapi sebabkan budak2 ni pon masuk sama, dengan menubuhkan Peterfan..so aku kira hadir sebagai memberi semangat je lah. Diorunk bawak 2 lagu Peterpan. ok lah, ada kureng sikit sebabkan kesilapan teknikal..hehehe.. (kan aku cakap,kat Shivam lagi best).
Esok nya,hari isnin diorunk cuti sempena Lagenda tu. Tapi aku kene gerak balik Mangalore dah. Banyak lagi urusan nak buat before balik Malaysia. Tapi pagi isnin tu ade usrah kat Shivam. So ok je join diorunk punyer usrah, lama dah kami budak Mangalore tak adakan usrah sebab sibuk dengan exam. Di ketuai oleh Afiq dan Kerel. Kami mulakan dengan membaca surah Al-Qasas. Kami bincangkan serba sedikit intisari surah ni - kisah nabi Musa (awal surah) dan kisah kaum Qaroun (penghujung surah). Lepas tu Afiq share pulak pasal awal muharam dan kisah-kisah berlaku pada 10 Muharam. Di penghujung tazkirah dia, dia ingatkan kitorunk tuk membuat puasa pada 10 Muharam..so kat sini aku nak share beberapa hadis yang aku jumpa,semoga menjadi panduan dan kekuatan kita untuk melakukan ibadah sunat ini..
"After the month of Ramadhan, the best month to fast is the month of al Muharram, and after the prescribed prayers, the best prayer is the night prayer."
(Sahih Muslim)
It is reported from Hadrat Ayesha that:
"The Quraysh used to fast on the day of Ashura' before the advent of Islam, and the Messenger of Allah s.a.w also used to fast on that day. When he arrived in Medina he fasted on the day of Ashura and enjoined fasting on that day. Later when fasting during Ramadhan became obligatory, he ceased to fast on the day of Ashura' and whoever wished to fast on that day was free to do so and whoever did not,was free not to do so."
(Sahih Muslim)
Ibn Abbas was asked about fasting on Ashura'? He said:
"When you see the new crescent of Muharram, then calculate the days and fast on the ninth day."
He was asked if the Messenger of Allah s.a.w used to observe the fast on that day? He replied in the affirmative.
(Sahih Muslim)
Ibn Abbas is reported to have said:
"the holy Prophet s.a.w came to Madina and saw the Jews fasting on the day of Ashura'. He asked them 'Why do you fast?' They said 'This is a good day, it is the day on which God saved the children of Israel from their enemy, so Moses fasted on this day.' The holy Prophet s.a.w remarked 'I have better claim on Moses than you.' Thereafter he fasted during Ashura and enjoined the Muslims to do the same."
(Sahih Muslim)
It is related that Ibn Abbas was asked about fasting on the day od Ashura, and he said:
"I know of no other day which the Prophet s.a.w favored as the most excellent day to fast than this day, meaning Ashura' and this month, meaning Ramadhan."
(Sahih Muslim)
Doakan aku selamat sampai ke Malaysia..bagi rakan-rakan Malaysia,meh ah buat plan jumpa time cuti ni...hehe..
Selamat 'Awal Muharam' dan Happy New Year!!
