I
have just come to the end of my 12 week Saturday morning tajweed class, and
apparently I also passed my tajweed test. To celebrate, the sisters in the
class organised lunch at Manjaros. It was nice to sit together and talk about life
and family. I have eaten at Manjaros before and knew I couldn’t finish a whole
meal, so ordered a kids portion – the ladies thought it was strange until they
tried to finish their own regular portions and couldn’t. The Parmesan chicken special:
The
ustdha (teacher) brought us all the most thoughtful presents: miswak (tooth
stick) in a holder, a counter for dhikr (remembrance) and a pretty box with
medjool dates and a set of little reminder cards she had made for each of us
with Islamic quotes and reminders.
I
think I may use the reminders as daily prompts to mull over during Ramadan and
maybe blog about. I am hoping classes continue
after Ramadan and I can see the sisters again insh’Allah
