Farewell Moonlight Eid


In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful...

Assalamu Alaikum...

I was planning on dealing with this post earlier this month, but that didn't happen. As such I decided to deal with it today and I'm dealing with it now alhamdullah. On the 10th of October 2013, Thursday I fasted. On the 11th of October 2013, Friday I took out the garbage. On the 12th of October I had an outing for some Eid clothes shopping.

I changed the gas canister for the stove in the kitchen on that day. I talked with my brother using Skype on that day. On the 13th of October 2013, Sunday I retrieved some money from the bank. I added some money to my bank account on that day. On the 14th of October it was the day of Arafa.

I took out the garbage on that day. I clipped my finger and toe nails on that day. I also fasted on that day. On the 15th of October 2013, Tuesday it was the first day of Moonlight Eid (Eid al-Adha 1434/2013). I visited my aunt on that day in some of my new Eid clothes. My brother called through our mom's cellular phone on that day.


On the 16th of October it was the second day of Moonlight Eid. My brother called through our mom's cellular on that day. I took a shampoo and fasted on that day. On the 17th of October 2013, Thursday it was the third day of Moonlight Eid. I took out the garbage on that day.

On the 18th of October it was the fourth day of Moonlight Eid. On the 19th of October 2013, Saturday it was the fifth day of Moonlight Eid. I had an outing for some shopping at Yaser Shopping Center on that day. On the 20th of October 2013, Sunday my dad returned to the U.S. from Hajj.

On the 21st of October 2013, Monday my dad called me through Prilular. I don't know if this would be the last post for this month or not. It might not be but it also might be. I need to wait and see. The title of this post is inspired by Moonlight Eid ending obviously.

The photo on this post is a photo of me in some new Eid clothes on the first day of Moonlight Eid. I'm in the guest room of JCT (Jawhiz Ca Trani). Assalamu Alaikum...

Memories of the First Umra

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful...

Assalamu Alaikum...

I was planning on dealing with this post today. I'm glad I'm dealing with it now. This would be the first post for this month, and insha' Allah it would be the last either. On the 1st of October 2013, Tuesday I had an outing for some Shawarma sandwiches. I had an outing for some credit for my mom's cellular phone on that day.

I had an outing for that shopping. On the 2nd of October I took out the garbage. I had an outing for some shopping at Yaser Shopping Center on that day. On the 3rd of October 2013, Thursday I had a dream dubbed "Magic Defense". I won't get into details about it. My brother called and talked with our mom on that day.

On the 4th of October Egyptians headed into Tahrir Square in Cairo under heavy fire from the Sissi army. On the 5th of October 2013, Saturday I got on an e-mail from my dad about Hajj. On the 6th of October I decided to name Grenada as "Latin Islands of Grenada". I clipped my finger and toe nails on that day.

My dad called through Prilular on that day. On the 8th of October my dad headed to Hijaz for Hajj. I paid for the electricity bill on that day. I also retrieved money from the bank on that day. Yesterday was the 9th of October 2013, Wednesday. There were presidential elections in Azerbaijan yesterday.

Today is the 10th of October 2013, Thursday. I decided to name November 2013 as "Moonlight November" today. There was an electricity outage today also. I'm trying to fast all of the day today. Only Allah knows if I would succeed or not. I have plans for an outing today also.

The title of this post was somewhat inspired from my dad going on Hajj. Through that I'm reminded of memories I have of my first -and so far only- Umra I ever had. I won't get into details about that though. I've noticed that Yahoo! has changed its mail format or "theme". I really don't like Yahoo! doing such stuff.

I'd try to adapt to it but it won't be easy and I don't like Yahoo! doing such stuff at all. Yahoo! better change its mail to the way it was on its earliest version and not "update" or "advance" any more. I'm not sure, but I have a feeling I'm not the only one who is displeased with the sudden changes of Yahoo! Mail.

No photo for this post. Take care, and assalamu alaikum...
