Raihan & Hujan - Salam Aidilfitri Ayahanda Dan Bonda

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ

For this year lain sikit lagu raya yg hit home. I've been listening to new versions of Raya songs but somehow nothing hit me hard. Well, when I'm saying hitting me hard, it really is a general term that can mean anything.

Either, the song hit me in a trendy or catchy way. Something that I really enjoyed at first hearing or whatnot. However, this particular song took some time to rub on me. As you know during the final week of Ramadhan. I have been ardently listening to Malaysian's radio stations since these stations will play Raya songs quite early.

And by doing so, Raya bugs will slowly rub on ya. Don't get me started with Bruneian radio stations. No idea why they're taking their sweet time. Seriously guys, don't you remember the time when we were just kids. When radio DJs start to play Raya 9-8 days before Raya? And we all got excited and rushed toward the radio to turn up the volume. Well? What the bloody hell were you guys thinking taking your sweet time, eh???

Okay, enough ranting, like I mentioned earlier. This song took its sweet time to hit me but when I listened carefully to the lyrics. Wow! So Enjoy! Ngalih ku bercerita panjang hahaha.

Finally! An Update

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ

So how was your Raya celebration this year guys? I hope everyone is safe, sound, and healthy. It's quite a roller coaster of Ramadhan and Raya experience for me. 

Covid-19 really did a mark this year on lots of people, me included. The anticipation of celebrating Raya this year was a bit muffled when almost everyone apart from myself here at home got hit by covid-19, three days before Raya eve!

As a Muslim, there is nothing much you can do but redha or be at peace with what's happening. We must believe in Qada and Qadar, which I see as a reminder from Allah to find the beauty of Syawal in the simplest manner.

Fast forward its day 9 now since the news broke that a few members of my in-law's family got covid-19. While most of them are now recovering and free of it. My wife decided to take an extra day precaution. So I will only be able to have a proper Raya with her tomorrow (Saturday, 07/05/2022).

Moving forward, I am still not fully sure if I will be able to blog again full time. However, for all time's sake, a few updates week in and week out should suffice for now. Mind you, writing helps my mind ease a little bit and also helps to improve my writing grammar!

Anyway, this is for now, so I leave you guys with this post. Stay safe and stay healthy everyone! Take care!
