Please...give me back the Syawal spirit!!!!

Open house 1


Open house 2

Salam syawal to all my friends..sorry for my absent in this blogging world. The same and traditional excuse is of course Im busy. Im really tight with my work. I have to prepare for my presentation in Chiang Mai and my boss want it to be ready this week. I had been working like a dog to finish it but at the same time I have to settle my other job too. Sometimes life is all about work work work. Well, nothing is easy in life and to achieve our dream its all need to pay off with hard work. I will try to spend time to visit you guys...since I cant go for physical visit for syawal..so I have to do it virtually..ahaks. Enjoy the clips above....my visit to the open house at the beginning of syawal. What can I say, Syawal abroad is much happening as compare to Malaysia. I think the main reason is because you are away from home and visiting friends is consider a must. You treat your friends like family here. When I was in Malaysia, I keep on wondering why neighbours, freinds or even relatives didnt come to visit...during my childhood, people just simply come, they dont wait for open house or they dont have to think twice about it. The door always open for the guest. But now people prefer to stay at home watching tv or go for holiday. Please give me back the syawal spirit.. I dont want my grandchildren to lose their identity, their faith, their boundary.....

    Perubahan minat, budaya, resam kekadang mengikut zaman. Dulu lain, sekarang makin lain. Seronok kalau suasana raya mcm dulu2.

    Memang bz ye bro.. Selamat Hari Raya.

    Bila ziarah nak kena di jemput, itu macam keikhlasan dah terhakis.

    Arsaili said: “I dont want my grandchildren to lose their identity, their faith, their boundary.....” Na'uzubillahi minzalik! InsyaAllah jika kita semua ada kesedaran dan terus membimbing mereka dengan berlandaskan ajaran ugama dan terus berdo’a…mereka tak akan jadi begitu…we just do our best and the rest is up to Allah!
    Entahlah sekarang ni orang kita dah macam2…banyak sangat terikut2 budaya lain. Nak ‘Open house’ lah…nak kena jemput dululah…eh macam2! ‘Open house’ tu budaya sapa eh? Ada yang terikut2 sangat nak jadi macam ‘orang puteh’…tak kira baik atau pun buruk…takut dianggap kuno kalau tak ikut…action klas konon…tapi yang ada tu cakap English pun tak tau! Mungkin ramai yang tak sedar ‘Orang Puteh’ tu sebenarnya kagum dengan budaya dan adap resam kita yang semakin pupus. Just my 2cents!

    saya pun lebih suka suasana di mana org berziarah tanpa menunggu open hse, tapi tak tahu ler, macam dah jadik alah bisa tegal biasa, org cuma melawat2 kalau ada jemputan open house waima saudara-mara sendiri :(

    betul tu arsaili..tp budaya open house tu ada dikota metropolitan sahaja..dikampung2..masih mengamal kan adat ziarah menziarahi...tapi takut juga..budaya tu akan pupus...

    beraya? no gomen la bro...tapi kat cni lebih banyak yang tercampur dgn budaya berbanding apa yang ada dalam Islam itu sendiri.

    :: salam arsaili... trenda saling berkunjung mulai berubah...

    :: ada yg memaklumkan..."rumah terbuka saya hanya pada hari raya ketiga tau"...

    :: ada juga yg bertanya..."hari2 lain tak boleh berkunjung le ye...tertutup le ye?"...
