Salaam My Family...

Salaam, and be at ease, for through Allah's Grace alone, can we find, and dwell, in the comfort we provide for each other.

Today, Ayahanda had his first class EVER, of the new semester. It was an enjoyable feeling, to meet and greet new hopefuls, intent on their intentions of furthering themselves.

Ayahanda managed to find your Uncle Saudara and Auntie AHJ at HS Cafe today. As always, Ayahanda's heart was overjoyed at seeing them well, and in apparent good health. Ayahanda mentions this momentous moment, for the simple reason of conveying a wisdom Ayahanda acquired from Uncle Saudara. It was a conversation, stimulated by Ayahanda, concerning the purpose of commencing any occasion with Al- Fatihah, and yet not culminating said events with a similar recitation. Uncle Saudara forwards that Al- Fatihah (of which the root word is fataha, meaning 'open') acts as an initial first step towards beginning any functions, and not to recite Al- Fatihah at the end of it, probably negating the action in a paradoxical loop. In short, Al- Fatihah is an opener, not a closer. Tasbir Kifarah is more suited to bring closure to events, as it generally implies 'closing'.

Ayahanda would venture that to begin any function with Al- Fatihah is to take a step forward in beseeching The Almighty for His Blessed Tidings. Maybe...

Also, Ayhanda is please to mentioned that Anakanda was making his / her presence known to Bonda. As Ayahanda rubbed the 'carriage', You were content. As Ayahanda and Bonda began in our concluding our 'Daily Five' (cursed E! channel...), Bonda said that You were comforted by Ayahanda's presence, and missed Ayahanda.

Heartily, Ayahanda, with tears welling in his tools to see Bonda and You, began the Iqamah.

Good night, My All. My Spirit. May Allah bless our lives with joy incarnate, for the path we are about to tread, as One.

Ayahanda
