Whoever feeds a fasting person...

This year, we had the fortune of being able to sponsor an iftar at a mosque AND help to pay for the construction of an annex to the mosque.

Malabar mosque is undergoing a major renovation as part of MUIS cyclical mosque renovation programme. Malabar mosque is taking this opportunity to enhance its facilities by building an extension, or to use a more cheem word, an annex, to make more space for mosque activities. Which is awesome because I think they need the space - they are doing some really good work for the community. They've got good religious classes, talks, and other funky things like health check-ups and legal clinics.

So this year, they had a call for donations for the building construction joined with the iftar. I got my brother, mom and sister to chip in and we managed to make the amount for the donations for that day.

Alhamdulillah, we are glad to have done it. The mosque was filled with people today. We dedicated the donation to my late dad and dad-in-law, and my late grandmothers and great-grandmother. The wonderful thing about this whole thing is that the barakah from the use of the facilities will continually reach these folks and the donors...
