Terawih @ Masjid Putrajaya

We were very fortunate as we get to the chance to perform the Terawih prayers at Putrajaya Mosque last Sunday. We thought to make this Ramadhan a more variety Ramadhan, not only the iftar menu, also where we have the Terawih. However, this can only be done over the weekend as the cuties will still need to sleep early on the weekdays. Dah ler kena bangun sahur kan?
We arrived quite late, the Isya' azan was already on air. Parking was a big issue, we couldn't get one so my better half dropped me and the girls first while he and my hero looked for a parking spot. He got one, right in front on PM's gate house.
The mosque is so beautiful. It's so huge and cozy. When we arrived were alot of jemaah there. And it's a combination of international jemaah. The ablution place was at the basement, again very convenient.
After terawih, we took the cuties for a walk at Dataran Putrajaya. It was Merdeka eve, so some where gathering there for the Merdeka countdown.
Some pics taken that nite...
Next on the list, Masjid Besi Putrajaya this weekend, Insyallah!!

Terawih is now our routine

I love Ramadhan. I always waited for this particular one of the Islam calendar. There's a lot to do in Ramadhan, planning what to cook for Iftar, planning for Raya and many more. But the best part is able to perform Terawih prayers.
We always make sure we don't miss terawih prayers. It is very important to us considering this only happened in the month of Ramadhan. Last year, we don't really get to focus on terawih as we were still commuting from KJ to BSP. This year, alhamdulilah, was much smoother.
Another difference we planned this year is to perform terawih prayers at different mosque on weekends. Last nite was at Putrajaya Mosque, we planned to go to the new masjid besi next weekend. Will blog about our experience at Putrajaya Mosque later.

The cuties love it too. Alhamdulilah, now they are much older and easier to manage. I remember back in 2007 when my baby was only 6, I have to make sure I sit at the corner with sufficient place for her to sleep.
I am hoping for Ramadhan to pass very slowly. And when it finally does.....I will surely look forward to the next Ramadhan.

The beauty of Ramadhan

One special thing about Ramadhan that you will not find in other months will be the terawih. We always look forward to this.
This will be the fourth year we are performing terawih together. At least for all of us except for baby. The last 3 years, whenever I went for terawih, I have to choose a very strategic location. Some corner lot because while I'm praying, my baby will be sleeping next to me.
This year, my baby will be joining us. And she is very excited about it. Her nenek gave her a new set of telekung, and my princess also got another one.
Hopefully we'll be able to attend as many terawih session as we can. And hopefully in future, we are able to perform this at home...
