The Sweet Heart: October 2006

Cool....Cool....Cool....

Summer, Autumn has gone. Winter is coming now and Ramadhan day will finish soon. Usually after finishing Ramadhan i celebrate for Eid Mubarak in Indonesian Embassy together all Indonesian and some muslim people who come from Malaysia, Thailand, Brunei and another country. They come to our embassy for praying Eidl Fitr which held at the field in the morning. This month in India has two celebration, First Deevawali, it is a celebration for hindi people. Second Eid mubarak, i'm waiting for this day after we are fasting during 30 days for muslim people in the world. In this day muslim people also have an obligation pay for tithe "Zakat Fitrah" (tithe in rice or cash paid at end of fasting month) but it may be allowed to pay in the beginning of Ramadhan or before praying Eid Mubarak.

Finally, i wanna say for all muslim people in the world 'WISH ALL OF MUSLIM A VERY HAPPY EID MUBARAK'

ALLAHU AKBAR....ALLAHU AKBAR....ALLAHU AKBAR LA ILAHA ILLALLAHU ALLAHU AKBAR ALLAHU AKBAR WALILLAH ILHAM

Ramadhan in my luv place

Today is 21 ramadhan or Ramzan in India, Alhamdulillah my fasting is still full until now. I'm very enjoying fasting here even i'm far from my family. i've two times fasting in SRK country (he..he..). i've taken some experiences about the people habitual here during ramadhan day. Usually during these days, so many people sell different kinds of foods, sweet cakes, etc. They sell it all in a simple shop along the street. sometimes, the shop is made only for ramadhan day. Therefore along the street is so crowded with all people. we can see this event in the evening before adzan maghrib where muslim people are doing aftar together with eating sweet cakes, drink, etc, after that they are praying together in mosque or at home.

Fortunately, my flat where i'm staying is surrounded muslim people. There are some mosque around my place. Besides, i'm also can hear adzan five times for praying that's why i feel living in my hometown because the situation here and in my home "Medan" is little same. People said about my place now Zakir Nagar,where i'm staying, is the big center of muslim people live especially in NEW DELHI.

As long i've been here during one year more, i never see the women being seller or keep the shop in the market around my place and u know that i also rarely see the women who buy something like food, vegetables or all ingredients for cooking food at home, frequency men do this all.
