I have to admit, I was sad to post this up.  The past 3 hauls, we went with our beloved late aunt, Tinda. 

Last year when she was in ICU, she thanked us for bringing her, and said if she's still around next year (meaning this year), please bring her along again.

I cannot even type that without welling up.  I miss her so much, and after she went, the Husband and I spoke so many times about how when Haul comes, we will really feel it, and yes it has already started. 

I remember the first year she went with us, she approached a Habib from Indonesia, and asked for his doa.  He took her water bottle, baca some doa, and then drank abit, and then passed it back to her and said, "semoga hatinya akan menjadi secantik mukanya." (coz she had heart problems) And he said that with the warmest smile, and my aunt was SO happy :) 

She was one of the lovers of the ahlul bayt; I think if she was feeling healthier, she would attend all the majlis that they attended. 

We share the same Ustazah ngaji, and to this day we still talk about how hardworking she was when it comes to reading the Quran, and her tremendous love for para habaibs, Masha'Allah.

I miss her, but Insha'Allah, she is already resting with all the ahlul bayt who have left us.  Amin.

On a side note, I also realised, last year the Haul was held a day before our Korea trip. 

This year, it's a day before our staycation.

I'm sooo thankful Masha'Allah, that it did not clash.  So so so thankful!

In case it's hard to see from the poster I attached above, here's the haul info.

09 March 2013, Saturday @ Maqam Habib Noh.

3pm - Qasidah
4.25pm - Solat asar berjemaah
5pm - Pembukaan with bacaan ayat suci Al Quran
6.15pm - Syarahan dari Habaib
7.30pm - Bacaan Maulid

We usually go around 4plus.  Last year we went after asar.

For ladies, I would advise bring telekong / socks / whatever u wear for solat, coz we will be seated outside.  Wudhu from home would be best also.

May Allah swt open our hearts and allow us to attend this blessed event with ease, and may it be beneficial and full of barakah for us! Amin!
