the last


this picture was taken on the 14th of july 2006, exactly a week after abdullah's birth. my father-in-law had organized an aqiqah, maulid and cukur rambut majlis for men at masjid abdul razak on jalan ismail after marghrib.

this picture is and will always be a special one for my family because it showed Habib Ahmad Semait cutting abdullah's hair and blessing him with plenty of doa. Habib Ahmad even gave abdullah kisses.

that very night, right after the majlis, Habib Ahmad made his way to KL for his monthly religious class that he taught on saturday night. he was involved in a car accident in yong peng and passed away. he was buried on the 15th of july 2006, in batu pahat.

he may have passed on, but his legacy in the form of the many religious books he wrote and the many religious classes he conducted will never be forgotten.

Alfateha to Allahyarham Habib Ahmad Semait. semoga rohnya diberkati dan dicucuri rahmat.

on a hindsight, my son is very lucky to be the very last person to receive blessings from such a dignified and pious person. when u grow up, u must read every single book that the late habib has written. and that is that.
