The Last Sajadah ...

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim

Assalamualaikum warahmatullah wabarakatuh

Alhamdulillah syukur ... اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ... dan kepada siapa saja yang berziarah ke sini saya ucapkan selamat sejahtera atasmu ... may Allah SWT guide our every step ...

initially i wanted to narrate a most sad event i learnt from the ziarah ... hence the title ... but i remember the happiest event of all that happened on this day ... the birth of our beloved Prophet صلى الله عليه و سلم

so ...

For today let me redirect you to this ...

and this ...

Been awhile since i had my workout in Laman Kecik. But AlhamduLillah the Laman is thriving on its own ... regular rain and occasional watering ... minimal weeding ... syukur AlhamduLillah for both calming and vibrant colours, and heady fragrance for the senses ...

Aster yellow ... aka coreopsis ... most vibrant "chickweeds tickseed?" and favourite bedding of Bujang Senang . I have planted this plant all over the Laman Kecik and Bujang Senang has tried most of them :)

Bujang Senang is a Tom Cat si perempit malam (the night prowler) who has an exceptional preference to sleeping among the Yellow Aster patches i planted all over this small garden ... till now i've no idea where he comes from :)

more here ... Bujang Senang

and this is Kenanga ... it's getting too tall ... i was standing below these branches actually ... will need to prune it soon but i'm dallying ... the kenanga is also known as YlangYlang ... aka Cananga odorata ... the very fragrant "flower of flowers" (its other name :) most soothing and calming ... do you then wonder that many are planted at the gravesides - emanating fragrance to sooth the pain of loss ...

Alhamdulillah syukur ...

... اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ...

InsyaAllah i will update on the tragedy of the Last Sajadah in my next narrative ...
