A week has gone! It's been a week now since my parents left for their journey in the Holy City. Alhamdulilah, everything's been pretty normal. Exams ended on Friday so the chores are solely up to me right now. I managed to keep the house in tact :P I did the laundry from start to end, cleaned up and made sure my brother and i had dinner. Thanks to our grandma who cooks for us almost everyday and taking care of us when we get back home. Holidays are here though part of me wants to get out there to get some money back in my account! :( It's quite tough to get such a short-term job though. Anyway, after quite some time, mum managed to call us this afternoon. My brother and i had just gotten home from our grandma's place and she called! I was so happy, i woke my brother up from his nap so that we can speak to our mum together. She sounds happy and well, alhamdulilah. Dad's been good too, mum laughed when she told us that he cut his head bald already, hehe! Alhamdulilah, may both their Haj be accepted by the Almighty. I wonder how much the place has changed though. It's been 6 long years i performed my Umrah with my parents. I personally felt that i wasn't ready for Umrah because i was only 14 and i was still getting the hang of being a good Muslim. There's something that i keep between God and myself but alhamdulilah, i've found my way back. With His Grace and insyaAllah His Forgiveness, i have finally found my way back. For the past week, whenever i prayed for my parents, tears well up in my eyes. I have lost so many years doing the wrong things, the wrong way. I have to thank my parents for constantly reminding me to be a good muslim and my brother for being an excellent example. I never told him about it but he has been such a role model to me. InsyaAllah, i will one day. For now, i'm finding my way back and alhamdulilah, it's been like that. Realising that my parents are on their Haj, i want to be as good a Muslim as they are. I long for the day i return to the Holy City to visit God's house. MashaAllah, i hope one day, the 4 of us can return there together. Well, i shall head to bed now. Been catching up on some stuffs and praying every day that my parents are well, healthy and that their Haj will be accepted, insyaAllah. May everyone be in good health. |
