Ramadhan Mubarak

Ramadhan Mubarak. The blessed month of Ramadhan is here again. All of us at Rumah Aman Shah Alam pray for Allah to bless our friends with good health and prosperity to perform all their ibadah during this blessed month. We thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Visit by Khalifah Model School

Yesterday (Sunday July 22, 2007) our boys played hosts to students, teachers and parents of Khalifah Model School (KMS), Ampang, Selangor.

After a short welcome speech from Brother Abdul Rehman Dakri, the day's program started with the visiting students singing their school song followed by a choral speaking presentation and a taekwando demonstration.

After a story telling session the children were divided into groups to work on creating their elephant masks. Initial shyness quickly turned into friendly chatter and the children produced some really fine masks.

After lunch and dzuhur prayers, the boys were presented with gifts from the parents of students of KMS and Brother Abdul Rehman accepted a personal computer, some books and games and a cheque from the principal of KMS.

We do hope our visitors had as nice a time as our boys and we pray that Allah bestow His blessings on the students, parents and teachers of KMS.

Boys at a Wedding

July 7, 2007 was a special day for the boys...they were invited to a wedding! It was a special day for Puan Jamiah, who was a former Housemother at Rumah Aman, and Encik Khalijan too of course.

The boys, all excited and resplendent in their Baju Melayu, and staff boarded a bus for Kuala Selangor where the wedding was held.

We wish Puan Jamiah and Encik Khalijan "Semoga berbahagia hingga ke anak cucu" (May you be blessed with happiness until you have children and grandchildren).

We must also say a big "Thank you" to Dataran Pintar Travel & Tours Sdn. Bhd. of Bandar Baru Sg. Buloh for their generosity in providing the bus.

Taekwondo Class for Our Boys

Our boys have just started their taekwondo lessons under the guidance of Encik Mohamad Najib Bin Nawawei. Classes are held on Sunday afternoons and we thank Encik Mohamad Najib for volunteering his time.

Now all the boys need are those smart taekwondo uniforms.

Our Newly Renovated Kitchen & Dining Area

We are pleased to announce that the renovation to our kitchen and dining area which was started in early June (see posting in June) has been completed.

Together with the new furniture, the boys now have a more comfortable and brighter place to have their meals and the staff a more pleasant place to prepare them.

Colouring Contest at Kelab Shah Alam

Last Sunday (June 17), our boys were invited to participate in a colouring contest organised by Kelab Shah Alam (Shah Alam Club). The contest was held in conjunction with the club's 'Parents Day' celebration.

The boys were up bright and early that morning and by the time they arrived at the club, everyone was excited and ready to go. After lunch and ice cream, the results were announced and our boys (Ariff - 1st, Izzat - 2nd and Amirul - 3rd) won the top 3 places. Ariff's effort was all the more impressive because his left arm was in a cast.

Well done boys!

June Birthday Boys

Last Friday the boys and staff of Rumah Aman were invited to lunch by Encik Fauzi and Puan Nina at their home in Section 9 Shah Alam. The boys were joined by the couple's children and their friends.

After lunch the elder boys went for their Friday prayers at the mosque while the younger ones performed their Dzuhur prayers at the residence. The boys were also treated to a movie.

Fadhil, Arif, Raziq and Amirul who celebrate their respective birthdays in June had a pleasant surprise when a birthday cake with their names on it was brought in.


The boys really enjoyed their outing and we must all say a very big "Thank You" to Encik Fauzi, Puan Nina, Ili, Saara, Bella and Hafiy for their hospitality and kindness.
