Hi all.
My post today would be slightly different from what I usually posted. Why? Because I feel like writing it as part of my thought, sharing, & da'wah.
Well.. here it goes.
I started working two weeks after I got married. New world, new journey. Met all unfamiliar faces, with different races, behaviour and etc. The first day I was so surprised the office have no proper place for prayers. The owner of the company I worked is Chinese. So no offence. It was disappointing but yet can't do anything about it.
But that is not the main story.
What made me feel even worse was when I asked the muslim-malay colleague where did she perform her prayers??
She answered, "Oh akak tak sembahyang Zohor sebab tak selesa nak sembahyang".
Oh -- damn.
Yes, the place was kinda dodgy but yet still clean and it was good to at least perform our Zuhr and Asr prayers.
I dont want to judge but dont you feel guilty being so open telling me that?
And then I realize..
Most of them missed solah, everyday.. Zuhr and Asr..
And most of them earned very little every month, sometimes could not afford to have lunch in the middle of the month.. It is saddening..
Allah..
May Allah guide and protect you..
