me, alah, afdhal and nazher were at home waiting to go to the mosque. we had to pray maghrib first before going. we decided to pray together. so someone had to be the 'imam' which means the leader to lead the prayers. since afdhal was the oldest, he was forced to become the imam. i knew there was a little reluctance in him because he was..... not a very vocal person.
then alah told nazher to do the 'azan', sort of the signal to prayers, but we laughed cause the azan was always done on the radio and we already heard the azan. it was meant to be the 'qamat', the calling to prayers. nazher did that.
it was done and we were ready to pray. we had to follow the imam, but he wasnt loud at all and we couldnt hear him but he went off to start. me and the other two at the back started laughing. so we started too. throughout the whole first verse, the imam was mumbling and we couldnt hear a thing. there were some sniffles and giggles among us 4. i couldnt help but smile, we werent supposed to laugh during prayers, let alone smile.
then it was time for the second verse. we waited for afdhal to start. we waited. and waited. and waited AND giggling. it all started with alah, idiot. soon we were all on the floor laughing. hahaha, the situation was so funny.
the prayer got cut off. next was nazher to be the imam since afdhal couldnt take it. thanks, fats. nazher on the other hand was too fast. he rushed through the 3 rounds of the prayers under in a minute. that also made us laugh. the way we moved throughout the prayers was almost mechanical. hahaha.
well, that was our first prayers together. cant imagine how'd it be with my dad and the girls. one big family. haha (:
