i miss the maulids we had, back in school, my beloved Madrasah Al-Maarif. it has been a tradition throughout the years, for us girls to have the maulid every year to celebrate the Prophet’s birthday and it has been one of the best memories of my school years. i never wanted to miss any of the maulid.

i miss the voices of my ustazahs who had such great voice reciting the maulids. i miss the togetherness that binded us students. it’s the beauty of it.

oh well, i hope to attend one this month. insya Allah. if only the mosque i’m working invites the asatizah who can lead selawat and zikir. i have no idea why they dont and what’s wrong with having it? why cant it be a culture of the mosque?

despite the numerous videos out there in youtube, i have always loved the Qasidah Burdah.
