Assalamu'alaikum..
So, I've been working part time as a promoter in a super market. And my best friend there is an Indian girl, named Devi. She actually has a longer name which I don't remember but I just called her Devi. She is a chatter box and that is probably why I feel comfortably around her. She make me feel less lonely.
Okay, cut the intro.
Yesterday, we were talking and then suddenly she ask me this :
'Kakak, kenapa orang Islam bila datang bulan, mereka tak boleh puasa?'
"Hah?" I was a bit shocked when she asked me this. My brain was trying hard to find the correct and simple way in explaining that to her so that she will understand it.
"Sebab darah haid tuh darah kotor. Bila kita nak sembah Tuhan kita, nak sembahyang ke apa ke, mesti mau bersih-bersih. Tapi darah haid tu kotor, sebab tu tak boleh puasa. Sembahyang pun tak boleh jugak. Tunggu habis datang bulan baru boleh sembahyang balik."
'Ooo, macam orang India laa kakak.'
"Yeke? Macam mana pulak?"
'Orang India kalau datang bulan, kami tak boleh makan sayur. Lepas habis datang bulan baru boleh makan sayur balik.'
Its fun actually to have a non-Muslin friend. Every second we spent talking with them will be a da'wah. Who knows she might open up to Islam one day. :)
