And The Thousands

And The Thousands
that I saw from my Window
busy with their own thoughts
busy

each had many of their own loved ones
separated from them
for the duration
for this journey

and here
the only things that matter
is one's umbilical cord
with the Lord

ALLAH
ALLAH
ALLAH
ALLAH
ALLAH
ALLAH
ALLAH

Salam,

I was one in the thousands. I know two of Firdaus mates (Nik is my neighbour in Selayang and I am Zubir's ex-BNM mate).

Please continue with your stories Tuan Haji...

Salam, pls put more pics and stories. They're so lovely and I feel like crying when I read them. I've been praying that I'll be the guest of Allah soon. Again, thanks for sharing but we need more.

Thank you TH, It had been over four months since I came back, but it is still so fresh in the mind.

Yesterday, I told my wife that the picture in the hall had always shown the thousands doing the prayers at Masjidil Haram, but I never realise and understood what the thousand and thousand means until I was there to experience it.

May your turn comes next.

It was among the sweetest moments in my life, being there in the sanctuary.

my friend, you can still see thousand, try and eliminate all the thousands inclduing yourself, including the Kaabah, what do you see?
then the purpose of jpurney become a "meaning" macam lu masuk itu hutan dulu bila kerja jadi forester!

anon thanks,
maybe different people see things differently.

we are blessed with vision, hearing and heart.

we are asked to appreciate those gifts and be thankful to the Giver.
