Happy friday and Salam Eidul Adha my dear friends. I hope everyone has done their part to pray for their beloved ones who are performing their haj atm. May Allah bless their pilgrimage and return them safely to their respective homes.
I seldom rant out about charity nor about religion, but I guess since today is a blessed Friday..it will appropriate to rant a little bit about that topic.
Now, ever since the Municipal department extended the size of Bandar seri Begawan and has included Berakas area as part of it, this place has been densely populated. From a residential area it slowly bloomed to be a commercial business district/area, hence created major traffic in the early a.m and p.m. Due to the increase in population, it is also hard to find spots to perform the friday prayers as most would go to either "Mohamed Bolkiah" mosque or the surau at technical school. When friday comes, it's always a struggle to get a spot to pray.
So I was wondering, why hasn't anyone came up with the idea to sponsor the renovation of the mosque?extend the area to accommodate the denser population of Berakas? or even if possible, scrap the idea of having an aisle at the mosque and transform that as part of the praying area given that praying mats are provided rather than to have us praying next to the stinking slippers and shoes, dustbins and drains?
just a little something for us to think about.
every year, new buildings and shops are build..so why cant the Mosque have a little face lift as well? just extend the area to accommodate the denser population in this area? Or perhaps..Let's pull in for the funding? $10 bucks each from every household in Berakas? comments?
happy friday everyone and salam eidul adha.
