I cant forget those days I spent in Java especially in Solo. It was something which I will never forget for the rest of my life. The images of poverty remain in my mind which I always try to force myself to be thankful to live in Singapore. One cant imagine how tough their life could be. Living at home with no tiles and proper renovation, rats running around, mosquitoes attacking them in the middle of the night. Yet they are contend with life and remain faithful to God. Its something precious and valuable that I learn. Some have sheep, goats and cows but cant consume meat because of their poverty. Usually, they had meat meal once in a year or during the Haul of some habaaib. Otherwise their routine meal would be beans, rice and some vegetable. No doubt its the healthy lifestyle but if we can help them to have the experience of eating meat would make them happy. Even the poor people in Singapore does get this sort of luxury meal. Therefore, I have decided to have this Qurban Project in Solo and Aceh, sorely the purpose is to help these poor families having the experience of eating meat. may Allah forgive me by being with them.
