Tarikh dan Tempat

Tarikh penting dalam hidup kami….

13^th Jan 2012 – Hari Pertunangan

1^st June 2012 – Hari Pernikahan

Despite choosing dates berdasarkan Calendar omputeh, yang paling penting, tarikh Islam nya. Maksud I Tarikh calendar Islam…

Apa apa yang kita buat, Sebagai seorang Muslim, jangan selalu nak membelakangkan Agama kita sendiri. Biar lah apa org nak kata

Dalam kubur nanti, depa tolong jawab? Tak kannnnn

I made my own research jugak ni. 1^st ly, the reason why I chose 1^st june is because, 31^st May is Public holiday for both Brunei and Sabah.

Second thing is because, it’s a long weekend… So the KK Family can spend time with me HERE…ohh..and the 3^rd thing is because… start from 31^st May, for 2 weeks, it’s a School Holiday.

Mudahan lah the kids can spend time with me..i mean my nieces. Coz lepas kahwin, I know it’s not gonna be the same. Mudahan lah tiada apa yang berubah.. I just HOPE.

So, back to the original topic, Tarikh Islam sempena tarikh2 important yang I pilih tu ialah

13^th Jan 2012 -  18hb Safar 1433

18hb adalah hari yang baik bagi segala hajat. Barangsiapa yang bertemu musuh, akan mendapat kemenangan dengan Takdir Allah.

1^st June 2012 – 11hb Rajab 1433

11hb adalah hari yang baik untuk segala hajat jugak, untuk bermusafir, jual beli dan bercucuk tanam.

Sejarah yang pernah berlaku dalam bulan Rajab:

Sejarah Islam telah mencatatkan beberapa peristiwa penting telah berlaku didalam bulan rejab, diantaranya ialah:

Pertama-Peristiwa israk dan mikraj yang berlaku pada 27 Rejab mengikut pendapat sebahagian besar ulama Islam, ia adalah peristiwa dimana Rasulullah s.a.w telah diperjalankan dari Mekah ke Baitil Muqaddis dan kemudiannya diangkat kelangit untuk bertemu Allah SWT, disinilah bermulanya kefarduan solat lima waktu kepada umat Muhammad s.a.w.

Kedua-Peristiwa hijrah yang pertama ke negeri Habshah oleh beberapa orang sahabat Rasulullah s.a.w termasuk Saidina Uthman Bin Affan ra dan isterinya Ruqayyah binti Rasulullah s.a.w.

Ketiga-Peristiwa perang Tabuk yang berlaku pada tahun kesembilan hijrah. Ia adalah peperangan yang menguji iman para sahabat kerana ia beraku pada musim panas.Pertempuran ini dipimpin oleh Rasulullah s.a.w sendiri untuk menentang tentera Rom yang ingin mengembangkan pengaruhnya ke semenanjung Tanah Arab. Walau bagaimana pun pertempuran tidak berlaku kerana tentera Rom membatalkan hasrat mereka lantaran perasaan gentar dan takut dengan kehebatan dan kekentalan jiwa tentera Islam.

Selain daripada itu,terdapat juga peristiwa penting lain yang berlaku didalam bulan yang mulia ini seperti kelahiran Imam ahlis sunnah, Imam As-Shafie yang menjadi ikutan mazhab umat Islam ditanah air iaitulah dalam bulan rejab tahun 150 Hijrah bersamaan 767 Masihi.

See... banyak sangat peristiwa penting dalam bulan Rajab ni...so Alhamdulillah, i've chosen something with a good history. not just based on Cuti awam je...hehehe

I hope things will go as i expect it to be.... Cuma i'm worried that the 2nd Venue in line that im eyeing on, is still not open to public yet...
How depressing that can be =(
Mudahan lah dpt pakai on time... Amin...Amin...Amin....

An Update...as of today

Oh My... it's ONE month and FIVE days more to go...
and i'm pretty nervous about this...

As nervous as i am about Engagement and Wedding... i'm also Sad that i have to leave my room.
Dad wants me to take another room...the bigger room infront...
mcm sedih rasa nya...tapi... *sigh* ntah lah ahh.... maybe ada hikmah nya....
I might want to change the door jua..... i mean the Door to living room.
it got 2 doors... 1 from outside and another to living room.
so the area near outside door will be living room..and im thinking to use it kalau makeup org jua
then another area is our Bedroom...and we'll be having our own toilet.

all this will happen AFTER the engagement...wont take too long i guess....

Update and Amendment on Brg Hantaran

As Salam...
Boring today.. Bf is off to Jkt-Palembang for Sea Games *sigh*
So i'm thinking of updating my Blog tentang Hantaran Pertunangan.

We're gonna have Pink and Green Theme... i know it's kinda not right combination but who cares. Apa nya urg Blocking Colours hehehe
why Green? bcoz 1st time jumpa(on the same date we chose for Engagement), he wore GREEN.
Why Pink, coz i have a kain which is Green and Pink in colour heheh and Pink is Sweet
So gubahan hantaran from me to him will be Greenish
from him to me will be Pinkish.

Photos by Google Search... hehe

I'm not sure what the BF will be giving me aside from Telekung, perfume, cincin tunang...tu je yg i tau.
But we've decided to give a Few now, and yg nda d bagi skrg, we will give next yr time hantar berian.

But for me...to give him for engagement... paling banyak pun.. 11 items je lah COZ i just booked 11 dulang to be Sewa hehehe so since i already buy barang2 for Engagement... i'm just gonna list it down here

1) Al-Quran (we're thinking of the E-Quran..gonna ask my cuz to get it in KL)
2) Buku Hantaran (which will consist of permintaan hantaran..Made by Rozi Yunos)
3) Perfumes (Thanks Dr. Ak.N for buying it for me)
4) Working Attire with Tie (Thanks NIG for accompanying me to buy those stuff)
5) Belt and Wallet
6) Maybe Kain Baju Melayu with Sinjang and Studd
7) Cakes
8) Food
9) Food
10) Food
11) Fruits

This means he should give me ONLY 9 Items includes Al-Quran, Telekung, Cincin, perfumes...and ia pikir lah sndiri..hehehe

i'll start mengubah barang2 by December... Insya Allah....

Til Then....
