Friday Prayer



Attended Friday Prayer today..

Actually i want to escape the prayer,,and straight away to the "The Mall", a shopping complex near putra world trade centre. Upon reaching at the commuter station in Putra, then i heard an azan from the nearby mosque. Just like a magnet, i was pulled inside the mosque.

What a surprise, this is not an exactly a mosque. It is an Indonesian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur.

Another surprise, the prayer hall actually is the covered basketball hall.

They just put a layer of sejadah and a mat. No aircond or nice carpets like our own mosque.

The friday prayer started with an anouncement to appeal for the donation for the earthquake victims in Sumatera.

Then, the lecture start as usual. It was given from a khatib, with a strong Indonesian dialect.

Today the main topic was about "Persaudaraan among the Muslims".


This is the summary:

This is you should do to establish a good persaudaraan among the Muslims.

1. You must give salam each time we meet.

2. You must 'bertanya khabar"...like sending sms asking how are you doing..or just simply a visit.

3. You must visit and take care of them when they are sick.

4. You must also escort them to the graveyard when he dies.

5. (i forgot).


The lecture is simple but really practical...and i think we should do the same to our nonmuslims members.
