What I learn 'from Hajj 1432 - I'm waiting for Your call...'

My husband left for Hajj on KT2 early this morning. Our earlier plans to perform Hajj together was being denied by Allah, for He has other plans for me. I failed the health examinations for the Malaysian pilgrims - I am (8 months) pregnant. I have waited for this call ever since we registered with Tabung Haji and banked in all of my mas kahwin & hantaran money (dowry) 2 days after the akad nikah ceremony (17th of August 2004).

After a lengthy discussion, we came to an agreement that my husband would perform his Hajj first, and insha Allah, when Allah calls for me to visit His noble house, I'll accept His invitation. And I pray that Allah will make the path of Hajj easy for me, pre, while and post-Hajj.

Pic was not taken during pre-departure! =D

Anyway, saying goodbye was not easy for any of us. Tears of sadness of not having the chance to go with him and as for him, knowing that I was heavily pregnant, carrying the twins - it was a big challenge to drive away from Kelana Jaya with blurry eyes! I truly hope one day, I will get the chance to be blessed with the greatest honor by being called to Your noble House... aamin!

And, not making things easier this song was aired on the radio... 

 

Irfan Makki's - I'm Waiting for Your Call.

Miles away, oceans apart
Never in my sight but always in my heart
The love is always there it will never die
Only growing stronger  
tears goes down my eyes

I am thinking all the time
When the day will come
Standing there before you
Accept this Hajj of mine
 
Standing in ihram, making my tawaf
Drinking blessings from your well
The challenges of Safa & Marwah
Rekindles my imaan
 
O Allah! I am waiting for the call
Praying for the day when I can be near the Kabah wall
O Allah! I am waiting for the call
Praying for the day when I can be near the Kabah wall

I feel alive and I feel strong
I can feel Islam running through my Veins
To see my Muslim brothers, their purpose all the same
Greeting one another, exalting one's True Name

I truly hope one day everyone will get the chance
to be blessed with the greatest honor
by being called to Your noble House

Standing in ihram, making my tawaf
Drinking blessings from your well
The challenges of Safa & Marwah
Rekindles my imaan

O Allah! I am waiting for the call
Praying for the day when I can be near the Kabah wall
O Allah! I am waiting for the call
Praying for the day when I can be near the Kabah wall

Ya Allah, grant my husband with mabrur hajj, ease his path to multiple his ibadah.
Ya Allah, please provide the best path for me to perform Hajj. The path that will create the best circumstances and conditions for me, my husband, my children and my parents.. aamin.
O Allah, I'm waiting for your call....
