Ustaz Nasran (seen here in pink, trying a hand at ping pong) manages the questions before they are asked live during the live telecast. Funny guy.
On the 28th day, it was the last live telecast for the ramadhan series of Tanya lah Ustaz. How heartfelt of Ustaz nasran and ustaz zahazan to have a closing ceremony (not aired) with a du'a recitation joined together with all the crew. Then at about 11.30am, I had the chance to see the live telecast of Tanyalah Ustazah. The guest speaker was Ustazah Asni. Wow, she may or may not have seem very made-up on screen, but she seemed very "made up" in person. I guess to appear on tv without looking pale (?) you would need to be made up.
Oh I forgot to mention that Ustaz zahazan's presence was not without Freebies for the audience! Yay! Free copies of Solusi, Gen-Q, and Al-Ustaz was given away. After that he also promoted some new books like Al-Qur'an khas dengan penanda wakaf dan ibtida' done by Ustaz Hassan Azhari (the old famous man - Jalaluddin Hassan's dad). Quite a few copies was sold that morning!
Alhamdulillah on that Friday, a few booths were also set up to help people donate to Cambodian (Kemboja) Muslims and Burmese Muslims (Rohingya refugees). Alhamdulillah.
The 29th night saw a few new faces in the women's compound and it was quite full but not really overcrowded (like night 23).
Got to know some new "neighbours" (my first time chatting with any). But generally by 29th day it was obvious that many people had left. I was worried by the time for ifthar that lots of food would be wasted but alhamdulillah (new) people came to join the ifthar.
We left soon after isya', after I confirmed the date of 1 syawal. Luckily I tuned into Tv1 via an app just in time to catch the man announce the date!
Alhamdulillah.... There goes my experience of i'tikaf for a few days in Masjid Negeri. Taqabalallahu minna wa minkum, Eid Mubarak!
