Bunga Manggar
Day:- Sunday
Today is the auspicious day for the family of Abu Hashim bin Talib and his wife Maznah binti Lazzan.
Most of the close relatives had already gathered since a few days ago. Last night was the 'Majlis Aqad Nikah' and followed by the 'Majlis Berinai.'
We all woke early today to assist the family to get things in order before the guest arrived. The actual 'Majlis Bersanding' is scheduled at about 12.30 pm.

Before the Majlis Bersanding they had the 'Majlis Khatam Alquran', Irenna flaked by her cousins, read verses of the Holy Quran signifying that they had completed all the Chapters of the AlQuran. This was led by the Village's Ladies Group who also recites the Marhaban the Verses of Arabic Chorus praising god and the prophet. |
The guests starts to roll in at about 11.00 am, and were invited to the big canvas tent where they were served with buffet styled 'nasi briani' - Briyani Rice and other foods.
Here comes the groom led by elders, stops and waited about 100 metres from the bride's residence, here again they are greeted by the 'Kompang' group.

The bride comes forward to greet the groom and later together they walk towards the house. |
