Abdul Gafoor Mosque On Transit

It has been sometime since I updated my blog. There were a number of events that this blog missed because of my busy schedule. But sometime we need to pause and reflect. Last weekend I had that moment. While going back home from Singapore I stopped by Abdul Gafoor Mosque for Maghrib. It is a beautiful Indian Muslim mosque that I used to visit with a close friend. No matter how far I have traveled I seem to come back to this place. It has many graffiti on its walls telling my life story. No one can read it except me.

There was a halaqah that night. Men and women crowded the hall feeling thirsty for a spiritual moment. The aura felt like a Ramadhan night even though it is still Shaaban. Up in the sky the moon is getting older. Soon we will see the crescent moon of Ramadhan. There will be many nights like this. This is just a prelude.
