Nikah Memoirs…..
Monday, August 11th, 2008That day….on 08.08.08….
i woke up feeling dizzy….i just had a dream that my future husband had difficulties in saying the akad nikah and a rapist bashing kittens’ heads open..something which is normal for a girl with a haywire mind like me..abang always feels stunned why i always dream wierd dreams, maybe coz he seldom dreams himself..haha..i opened my handset for messages and read a message from my little sister, maryam…"Enjoy ur mlm t’akhir kak :)".. i woke up suddenly with a jolt… whoaaa! today im getting married!it occured to me that im going to be a wife that very day…. shivers went through my spine.. i just couldnt believe it…im goin to be a wife?? it seems so not me….
I had a shower and got ready for school..today i got permission to leave home early…went to school for attendance…and got many support and friendly words from friends…suddenly felt happy that im working in a school environment..after taking pictures(my last day as a single)..i went home…at home… i started cleaning up and vacuming the house… i felt tired, excited and nervouse… my mind just couldnt accept the fact that im going to be a wife….
later that day..my uncle came bringing along my little sister who flew all the way from indonesia…aftr having a chat… suddenly my lovely friend, shakirah came…she offered taking the day off for me and help make up.. im so flattered…thanks so much shakirah..i’ll design henna for your wedding…that is something im good at considering i did the henna designs on my hands and feet alone:) (im the only creative person in my whole family and relatives)
shakirah supported me through my nervouse day… which i would have a nervouse breakdown if she hadent been there… we played with make up and chatted…time flew SO FAST!…suddenly it was 6pm and my future hubby smsed saying that his family is on the way… i panicked a little considering i was coming home from the farmacy in my normal t-shirt and jeans…i came home and took a bath… shakirah was waiting to paint my face with colours…she did a marvellouse job…i looked so lovely! she really had talent…we went down and snapped photo’s….shakirah mixed well with my family…she is just so natural… (im the shy type)…
I sat down on the carpet waiting for my abang’s family to come.. and they did come… more than expected!he said only under 20 will come..but then..around 30 over came…..my mom felt a wave of panick seeing how many came..thank goodness my mom booked catering for 50 people..haha…my heart felt that it was going to drop out…when abang came in… he looked so handsome! tall…dimples…broad shoulders…sweet..tanned…oh my… Allah gave me such a lovely husband!im very lucky..after the khutbah…the ustad told my dad to give the akad nikah which my dad suddenly repeated with confusion…haha…my husband received and pronounce the akad nikah just one go..alhamdulillah..thank goodness my name is just Fateema Dzulkifli…or he would have difficulties… =)
The day went by so fast..my hubby went home..malay adat…eventhough we are married.. only after the wedding ceremony we can live together… i was having a time accepting my new status…. im so happy im a wife…now… my heaven is under my husbands feet..its a saying to say that my whole life will be devoted for my husband.. i got a caring and loving husband… so i wont have problems in living my life for a man i love…
Hope we will live happily together… forever and ever….now im just seeing him on dates….he is my husband :P…cant wait to live with him… love him so much……Mohd Hafoz Syazwan n Fateema…hope you two will live in love each day with Allah’s berkat…Amin….
