..missing someone...

.we never really left the Holy Land, my wife and I....after more than two months from the day of our return, we were still there...sometimes alone together at home, little things trigger off our memory...a touch, a prayer, Zam Zam water...and we were back in MasjidilHaram...the fragrance of a memory that lingers...oft times we wished we were back there...taking that brisk walk to Haram in the early hours before dawn...amid the constant din of cars honking...the crowd of purposeful pilgrims...the smell and the dust...we missed Misfalah...we missed the constant call,' Hajji...Hajji..Hajji...


....most of all we missed the Kaabah....

Dear Abe Mat,
Oh yess...even after a couple of years the memory still lingers....sesekali tengok gambar dalam album yang beribu-ribu tu....memang rindu.

Welcome back and congratulations Pak Aji. But you're still my Abe, right? purrrr....meow!

Assalamualaikum PM,
Can imagine your feeling of missing the Holy Land...even by looking at the pictures brought tears to my eyes.
Praying that I will receive HIS invitation soon.

Pak Mat,

Masjid Muhammadi Kota Bharu boleh kembalikan ingatan segar Mekah. Iman akan sebut Istawu...... dan ada bau setanggi, macam masjidiHaram.
