saw the pics i took on saturday?
crazy and retarded right?
i knoww.

now i shall tell you what i went through tonight.
which was just now.

(tonight's entry will have some malay words.i think.)

well...
went to Masjid Khadijah with my nenek before maghrib.
because today is the last day of Maulud Nabi.
and when i reached the mosque around seven, i was like so shocked because i didnt expect the place to be crowded.

dalam masjid dah ramai org.
so nenek and me went to the auditorium.
but guess what?
PON RAMAI ORANG.
and i had to sit by the door.
nenek sat on the chair because she can only sembayang duduk.
but at last those yg tak sembayang have to sit outside auditorium and let those who pray to sit inside.
looking by the number of people just now,i assume there's bout 200 perempuan and 200++ lelaki.

after sembayang maghrib, kiter pon berzikir and baca the doa.
(i dont know what doa)
then when comes to the standing part,there's lotsa small little girls(aged 3-6) who went around putting perfumes on our hands.
(the part when all of use will sing "ya nabi salam alaika,ya rasul salam alaika..."
there were bout 10-20 babies who had their "cukur rambut" done by Ustaz Ali.
that was my first time seeing all those.
and i dont know why i felt so terharu..
tears were coming out but i managed to control myself.
maybe i was touched because by seeing all those, i told myself, Islam is just so beautiful.
where all the muslims regardless of age and religion,come together to celebrate this special occasion.

then solat isyak and continue doa2.
the best part was eating nasi briyani in a big tray with the rest.
and the nasi briyani was just so delicious.
went home around ten.
the worst part was going out of the masjid.
imagine..walking in a crowd of 200 people.
i felt like i was in Mekkah and rasa macam tengah tawaf keliling ka'abah.
but this wasnt keliling ka'abah.
this was just packed and squashed while trying my best to get out of the gate.

i just cant forget the experience i had just now.
my first time celebrating maulud nabi and of course i enjoyed the occasion.
