Blessings

Hari Raya Puasa; Eid-ul Fitr; 1 Shawal 1431

Attended Hari Raya prayers with Hamzah and Fuad at the mosque by the sea in Melaka - near Makhota Parade. Sea breeze very welcome after a morning drive through a largely deserted downtown Melaka. Prayers were followed by a welcome cuppa at the White Coffee place opposite Makhota, a reminder of the pleasures of actually drinking during the day.

Then we did Friday Prayers at the mosque in Alor Gajah. A pleasing variety.

Much merriment & some tears seeking forgiveness and doling out the green packets. Will remember both as a fair summary of the concerns of this life when lived well.

Selamat Hari Raya to all.
