The whole family came and had sungkai in the main family house. Later we performed the evenings and the Terawih prayers together at home, it was good to see young children also joining in and for some learning the prayers for the first time. Tomorrow the place will be very quiet as everybody headed home.
As always in the month, tedarus began at the local mosque. There isn't a big group here, the same faces like every year. Indeed it's a stark contrast compare to the the big crowd that throng the Istana every night. If only a fraction of those would come here that would already make a huge difference.
Today we only did one Juz. The idea is to do two khatams or completion of reading the whole Quran during the month. Apart from that, the Imam who is a Hafiz is also reading the Quran during the Terawih prayer.
