Masjid (Mosque of) Zabeda, ISTAC, Kuala Lumpur

Salam 19 Ramadhan. Sudah lebih sebulan saya tidak mengemaskinikan blogspot ini. Biar dibuat satu perkongsian...

Peace be upon you this 19th Ramadhan (Muslim fasting month). It has been more than a month I have not updated this blogspot. Let a sharing be made...

Jumaat lepas saya berada sehari suntuk di ISTAC (Institut Pemikiran Islam dan Dunia Melayu) di Bukit Tunku, Kuala Lumpur lalu menunaikan solat Jumaat di sana.

Last Friday I spent the whole day at ISTAC (Institute of Islamic Thought and Malay World) in Bukit Tunku and did the Friday prayers there.

ISTAC memiliki sebuah masjid...

ISTAC has a mosque...

Namanya Masjid Zabedah...

It's name is Masjid (mosque of) Zabedah...

Walaupun sudah beberapa kali singgah di masjid ini ia adalah kali pertama saya menunaikan solat Jumaat di sana.

Although I have been to this mosque many times it was my first time conducting the Jumaat prayers there.

Saya agak terperanjat melihat begitu ramai orang menunaikan solat Jumaat...

I was quite surprised to see so many peope conducting the Jumaat prayers....

Ini kerana setahu saya pelajar dan kakitangan ISTAC tidak berapa ramai, rasanya tak sampai 40 orang.

This is because as far as I know the students and staff of ISTAC are not so many, I think not even 40 people.

Yang meramaikan adalah para pelajar Universiti Islam Antarangbangsa Malaysia (UIAM) yang menyewa pangsapuri di sekitar ISTAC...

Making up the numbers are students of International Islamic University of Malaysia (IIUM) who rent apartments around ISTAC...
