I’d spent the weekends in a so-called Ibadah Camp when it’s nothing much other than more motivational talks and the only interesting about it was learning how to shroud the dead (Kafan jenazah). It was…boring and terribly unsystematic.. I don’t know who was the more uncivilised, the organizer or the participants.
Saturday…..
5.00pm – Registration(a calm and quiet affair since everyone else was late)The camp was held at the mosque.
6.15pm – A talk by some Law lecturer on Muhasabah
7.20pm – Maghrib
7.45pm – Dinner (which was tasteless and cold…and the worst thing was being pushed by some uncivilised ‘women’ whom I don’t know what they are rushing for!!)
8.30pm – Isya’
8.45pm – Another talk by an IRK lecturer on how to motivate oneself and the things to take care of such as Taqwa, Knowledge, Amanah, Mission and Vision…ok this talk was much more ok than the first one.
10.00pm – Supper (which was another barbaric affair. Hot tea pilled onto Qadar’s bag and dress…I didn’t dare took any drinks or food because the place was dark, you couldn’t see anyone’s face within two metres away and the pushing around was scary)
10.30pm – Went back to the comfort of my room.
Actually we had to sleep at the mosque but what the heck~ Everyone went home….
Sunday….
5.00am – Qiyamullail which was nice and tranquil. I enjoyed it but the there’s pathetically no brothers at all performing it. There’s quite an encouraging number of sisters.
6.00am – Subh (and right after that…sisters were all swarming and noisy busy talking of what nonsense)
7.00am – Exercise, which was rather stupid and I don’t participate at all. And we were not rebels without a cause. The thing was…we had to queue for the breakfast and to get our attendance card stamped…so me and my friends queued all the way and just when it was near our turn,the sister said that they coudn’t give a stamp…only after breakfast!!! What the….??!!And the rest of the sisters got their stamp!! What unfairness!! We argued with the sister there and we rebelled.
Again for breakfast…a pack of ‘female wolves’…
8.00am – Talk on how to shroud the dead. Interesting enough but I was sleepy for the first few minutes. Real sleepy I couldn’t open my eyes!
11.00am – Our practical which I lead…yes I lead and of course a few other helpers and a ‘dead’ body. And I think we did well. It was fun…
12.30pm -THE END!!!! Lunch was tasteless.
And now I’m just back from Wangsa Maju bought some nice food for myself!! Food refuge!!
Tonight I’m having rehearsal for an Opening Ceremony of ICE Week 05. All the best to us!!
