Visits to Our Departed



Ramadhan is usually the time that we see flocks of families and relatives visit cemetries to offer 'doa arwah' and recital of the Surah Yaasin. It also is an opportunity for us to do good deeds such as giving away 'tahlil' books, umbrellas (provide shade during hot days), mats, stools and so on. The photo shows the numer of kettles given away...

HOWEVER, in doing our good deeds, offering doa and so on, a lot of us forget 'cleanliness'!! Litterbugs tend to just 'put' bottles, plastic bags, mats and so on in the huts, assuming that these are their gifts to others who visit the cementry...my plea is please please do arrange your gifts nicely and orderly, and throw rubbish in the bin.
