Alhamdulillah. All thanks are due to Him.
Ramadhan and Syawal has just left us. Masha Allah, how time flies.
In the midst of Ramadhan, the whole world was shocked with the incident of a Malaysian airplane MH17 that was shot down near Kiev, Ukraine which involved nearly 300 passengers including the crews.
The world watched sympathetically to Malaysia especially after the tragedy of MH370 which mystery is yet to be solved. The diplomatic way of the Prime Minister in dealing with this matter was praised by all. After a long wait, the corpses of the victims of MH17 was sent back to our homeland on 22nd August 2014(Friday) which involved 20 victims. The rest are yet to be recognized.
On that day, a special ceremonial occasion was held in Kompleks Bunga Raya, KLIA in which all the coffins containing the corpses of the victims who just arrived from Ukraine were sent to their hometowns as per families' requests. There was a minute of silence whereby people meditate according to their religion as the last tribute to all victims of MH17. Al fatihah.
In accordance to this, I would like to share a poem in Bahasa(author : unknown) which is a tribute to all victims of MH17.
Duhai saudara saudariku mangsa MH17
Apakah rahsiamu dengan Tuhanmu?
Sehingga kami semua tersibukkan dengan ehwalmu
Duhai saudara saudariku mangsa MH17
Apakah amal kebaikanmu yang tinggi melangit
Hingga ribuan manusia hadir solat jenazahmu
Seluruh rakyat Malaysia mendoakanmu
Dan satu Malaysia bergema dengan alunan al-Quran keranamu
Duhai saudara saudariku mangsa MH17
Sungguh aku cemburu pada kalian
Hamba terpilih Tuhan.
May Allah guide us to the right way and May Allah make us the people of jannah.
Amin.
