Salam 'alaik,dear GoodOldLovedBuddy,......

How're u???I'm,hamdanlillah, breathing & fine in this cold place which was the centre of the Omayyad period quite a long time ago...

I've not written to u for over a month....i was rearranging my time to make the most of it,& somehow,along the line,time for writing to u got lost...hehe...:>

Anyway...i wanna tell u a bit about a masrahiyyah(stage performance) i went to...

Titled:Rihlatu Imaam(Journey of the imam)...

Hadirin & hadirat--all women... style,kan???

Journey of which imam,u will be asking??

The play showed the life story of Imam As-Syaafi'ee Rahimahullaah...

Subhaanallah,the play was soO Gerek!!!

With nice backdrops & colourful costumes+singing & dancing,the life of

Imaamunaal Faqiih was shown...

Each scene showed a different part of his life...

-His birth...

-his studies in Makkah...

-his work as a Qadhi in Yaman...

-his 'capture' & journey to Baghdad,Iraq...

-his return to Makkah...

-his journey to Mesir...

-last scene:---(4 Imams

wearing white jubahs on stage...they explained that they were not enemies...

Imam Syafi'ie:student of Imam MaalikImam Syafi'ie:student of Imam Abu Hanifah's student,Imam Muhammad bin Al-HasanImam Ahmad bin Hanbal:student of Imam Syafi'ie)

They explained that difference of mazhabs does not bring perpecahan...

It just shows that Islam is a very flexible religion which is not backdated or jumud...

It is actually growing all the time to fit all the new challenges which are coming up...

(but still based on Al-Quran & As-Sunnah of course!!)

*Lagi satu,this masrahiyyah also showed Imam Maalik teaching his daughter(Fathimah)his book Al-Muwaththa',& her teaching many other women henceforth...

Rupe-rupenye,many women studied & taught hadith in the past...

Subhaanallah...

Allaahummaj'alnaa minal 'aarifiina bikalaamika wa sunnati rasuulika.aameen..=>

Oh,ya!!On HariRaya Aidil Adha(alamak,lamenye,...skarang da muharram!!;P),we watched penyembelihan kambing...u noe where it was held???

@ kedai2 daging!!style,kan???

pulak saya tinggal dekat dengan pasar...

ade ard 4 to 5 daging shops en route to my house frm Jame' Solaahuddin,

where i went to solat 'Eid....

We were lookin when suddenly,2 kambings escaped!!!!!

hahaha...chaos reined!!

(actually,not dat much,cos humans run faster than sheep)...

All i can say is that Alhamdulillah, they didnt turn right,cos we were directly on their right...

It turned left!!!

AllaahuAkbar Wa lillaahil Hamd...

Lastly,the picture above is of Halawiyyats which we saw @ Halab(Aleppo).

My frens & i went there 2 days b4 Eid,so,the

Markets were full of 'tooth destroyers'!!!

Happy feasting!!(for ur eyes))=>

May Allah protect us & our imaan always...

A reminder from a woman i met on the way

to skool(yup,i made frens with her..hehe)

:(these were her last words b4 we parted)

;)انتبه على دينك!!!

Take care of ur religion!!!

wassalaam...fii amanillaah wa hifzihi!!!=>
