Eid Mubarak to all my frens.. I bersiaran dari kampung. ALHAMDULLILAH my mobile broadband ni dapat menolong i berkarya. Actually tak plan pun nak raya qurban di kampung. Yelah after 10 years we celebrated eid qurban ni di KL and Shah Alam and suddenly this year di Pontian, Johor. Usually my parents akan ke Shah Alam dan celebrate kat rumah i. Means my home as a port lah for all my siblings and relatives berkumpul. Ntah cam ne my parents decided nak beraya di kampunglak tahun ni.. I pun at first tak berapa sure nak balik atau tidak. Tambahan pulak Hubby tak berapa sihat and nak fly this Sunday. Means besok we have to leave our hometown and back to Shah Alam. Kejap sangat. tapi tu lahh. ALLAH is the best planner.. so, ikut je lah kan.. ALHAMDULLILAH we safely arrived kat kampung yesterday afternoon. at about 4.00PM.

Kebetulan yesterday afternoon adalah hari ukuf di Arafah, kita ambik berkat dengan berpuasa. Tapi yang posa tu cuma Chef CiJu, Abang Luqman, and Bibik. While me..heee... COTIII.. Hubby lak tak leh.. Sebab masih lagi tak berapa sihat.. the rest two abduls tu tak payah lah kannn.. sebab sepanjang jalan dok cakap, kita ni dah lebih 2 marhalah kan bu.. kejap - kejap cakap lagi, dah lebih dua marhalah kan bu... heee. kunun - kunun musafir lah kan.. elok tak payah posa lah maksudnya tu.. Eeee anak - anak zaman ni kan.. BIJAK..

Fasting Arafat Day is special for those who do not go on the pilgrimage.

Advantages of fasting Arafat Day

Has said in a hadith Sahih Muslim that means,

And the Prophet asked about fasting on the day of 'Arafah. Then he said: "It atone the past year and the coming year." (Hadith Narrated by Imam Muslim)

So for those who fast on the Day of Arafah will be rewarded with a year penance before and after.God willing. If indeed the intention, right way.

In another narration the Prophet said:

"Fasting the day of Arafah, Indeed I hope Allah to eliminate sin previous years" - (Hadith narrated by Tirmidhi)

From Sayyidatina 'Aisha said:

No of days in a year I fast more I love than the day of Arafah - (Hadith narrated by Ibn Abu Syaibah and Baihaqi)

We all pun tak lah menyinggah at any rest area for lunch coz i dah dok ngap - ngap dari Shah Alam lagi. Bila dah tiba di Pontian, Chef CiJu told me that she wanted to buy Nasi Ayam Goreng Kimi kat tepi pantai Pontian.. Maka menyinggah lah i.. Tup - tup, i and Hubby ngap lagi..

Volume 2, Book 15, Number 71 :

Narrated by Al-Bara'

I heard the Prophet (p.b.u.h) delivering a Khutba saying, "The first thing to be done on this day (first day of 'Id ul Adha) is to pray; and after returning from the prayer we slaughter our sacrifices (in the name of Allah) and whoever does so, he acted according to our Sunna (traditions)."
