9 Muharram 1428
Lately, I did a lot of thinking. General life related matters. Maybe it's the sastera module i've been having. All the texts and critical readings are the cause? Maybe. Or perhaps the DPI i'v been attending?Kesimpulannya, I have questions after questions in mind.....
Tomorrow, the 10th of Muharram is the Day of Asyura. What's the historical significance of this day?
1. Nabi Nuh's a.s. ark came ashore on Mount Judiyy
2. Nabi Musa a.s. was saved by Allah s.w.t from Fir'aun
3. Arabs used to change Ka'abah's curtain on this day
So how do we observe this auspicious day? Puaser laa =D




I hope that by fasting on the Day of Asyura, Allah will forgive last year's sins. *narrated by Imam Muslim.
In fact, not only we are encouraged to fast on the 10th but actually the whole of first 10 days of Muharram anndd on the 13th, 14th, 15th of Muharram.
So ape lagi tunggu? Grab the 'clearance sale'....... to clear sins! While stock lasts. heh.
In doing so, we hope for His rahmah to begin the new year with. Insya Allah.
