Pulang ke rahmatullah ... Datin Seri Endon passed away...

Today was a very sad day for Malaysians as our Prime Minister's wife had passed away leaving two children, menantu(s) and also granchildrens...it was an even solemn day as it was raining the whole day throughout morning till evening....at first I thought it was some silly sms scam that I received from my aunt at around 8.30 a.m. stating that Datin Sri Endon has passed away...I thought yet again another 'got nothing better to do people' out to hurt peoples feeling and cause havoc to everyone...but not until my big brother called my mom right after I told my mom about the sms, that he called to mention that he heard the news on the radio that I was sure that the sms was true rupanya...innalillahirojiun....kepada Allah jua kita kembali..

I was shocked and quite sad actually...I hardly knew her of course, but I always felt that there was some warmth and kindness in her smile and her ways when she was the first lady...I also admired the way, she and Pak Lah was not shy to show their affection towards each other which is sometimes quite rare in our Malay society as the 'orang tua' said it is memalukan aje...but when you think about it, you are married, what is there to be shy about anymore, of course there are batas and places to show your affection, but if people know you are married, I feel there is no need of shyness to show your affection to your spouse as it also shows people and especially family and children that you love one another very much and am not ashamed of that...

It was touching to see that during the live telecast by TV3 at the kompleks Sri Perdana, Nur Farahin Jamsari was sort of speechless at one point when she was commenting or talking about Datin Seri Endon...as a matter of fact, I felt for her too and sort of felt like crying just like Fara....but I didn't of course, cause then Ridhwan would be wondering why is his mama crying away...Anyway, my deepest and heartfelt condolences to Pak Lah and his family, may Allah bless her soul and may she be placed with the solihins...Insya-Allah...lets take some time to recite Al-Fatihah and also to ponder on our life on this blessed Ramadhan...wallahualam...
