End of Shawwal 1447 Visits

Last Saturday is the last day of Shawwal 1447 and my wish is that my life could be extended for another Ramadhan at least to better myself before I depart.

We had a few Eid visits to my sister-in-law and brother-in-law's place n KL during the Saturday before the last. Here are some photos:



Essentially my other half drove us there since I have problems with my right leg. Our trip back was met with traffic jam and our gps directed us to an inner highway that we have not passed through before but it led to a highway exchange for the Lekas hisghway. The news that we heard is that there is a massive traffic jam at PLUS highway.

Last Saturday, we went to my other half's nephew place somewhere in Sepang. We avoided the highway altogether and went through inner roads near Ainsdale. Some photos here:




Our son Izhar drove us there; first time we ever had our trip together since last Ramadhan, alhamdulillah. My other half nephew is also a doctor in Putrajaya (I think).


Our conversations then were on the rising cost of living and affordable homes. The zillenials (between millenials and Gen Z) have greater problems to overcome and indeed there seems to growing mental health problems. That is why I get really turned off when older generations (including mine) tend to say that the younger generations had it easy. I wished they will just stop saying that because the challenges they faced are simply different. I have great concern of the future that my sons are living through and pray that Allah grant them an easy life. Alhamdulillah that our sons Khair and Izhar are living with us (Ihsan is in JB and Izzudin is in Jasin) and our house (and cars) is the only property that we have and it will be their 'kampung' to go back to.

The past few days, Malaysia had Sneako visiting us. He had an interview with our PMX (see here), and later with Dr. Zakir Naik (see here) and Ust. Hussain Yee (see here). I thought that Sneako is doing well with his interviews.




Sneako is currently in Indonesia and I'm curious who would he interview there.
