All You Have To Do Is Wait...

"All you have to do is wait for your nikah day". That was what being told to me by the helpful people at the Pejabat Agama Islam today after I submitted the borang nikah.

Submitted!

There was a brief interview or rather, a chit chat session with the Ustaz before he allowed me to hand in the form. On the way to the Pejabat Agama with my mom, we were quizzing each other on Rukun Islam, Rukun Iman, etc; the basic Pendidikan Islam stuffs. And then boleh pulak both of us terlupa 1 rukun for each the Rukun Islam and Rukun Iman! Punya la dok ingat... apa benda la yang termiss tu?? When you're panic-stricken, you simply forget! Errr...and why is my mom panicking again?

My dad told me that last week his friend's daughter ke son went to see the Ustaz, and he/she was asked to recite the Qunut. Maybe he/she was too nervous, and could not complete the recital. In the end the Ustaz asked him/her to come back once he/she is ready. Thanks Abah, does not help calm me down!

At the last moments before I went in to see the Ustaz, alhamdulillah I could recall each of the Rukun Islam and Iman. *phew*

But not that the Ustaz quizzed me on those anyway. Just a simple recital of the istighfar and syahadah, with the meaning. And he advised me on the do's and don'ts for a blissful marriage...tiba-tiba rasa sedih T.T
