Walimatul Urus in Surrey

Assalamualaikum WBT

My wife and I went to Surrey yesterday with the company of Syahmi and wife witnessing Kak Nora’s big day. As this was our first time attending a kenduri kahwin in the UK, we didn’t mind travelling a couple of miles just to get there with my old white car or something i call Qaswa’. By the way when I come to think of it, it looks pretty much like Nohara’s car (Shinchan’s dad).

Rasulullah said to the nearest meaning in an hadith from Abdullah Ibnu Umar r.a,

Datanglah menunaikan jemputan apabila kamu dijemput kepadanya

So we arrived at about 12pm, good that the pengantin was not there yet but the hall was full of guests, whom some we had never met before. Most of them are from Surrey University I reckon.

The venue was a quiet room but who’d expect quiteness in a kahwin2 event. The Malays literally conquer the place, so no problem.

2 main dishes were served; laksa and nasik putih+ikan masin+ayam goreng rempah+kari ayam+sambal belacan+sambal udang+sayur2. Not bad eh? Looking at the backdrop and other preparations, the committee sure had worked hard for this special event.

The pengantin arrived, kompang hit, not the real one, mere mp3. But the atmosphere was still the same, as exciting, breathtaking as ever. seriously, it really felt like at home.

Great event, brilliant food, good looking pengantins, excellent weather, safe journey, everything was great. And to top it all up, we went to a Halal KFC in Woking (GU21 6GH)!

To Kak Nora and Husband, congratulations on your wedding!

Semoga Allah menghimpunkan yang terserak dari keduanya, memberkati mereka berdua dan kiranya Allah meningkatkan darjat keturunan mereka menjadi pembuka rahmat, sumber ilmu dan hikmah serta pemberi rasa aman bagi umat

Ok, later then!
