My In-Law’s Birthday

27 July is my father in-law’s birthday. Yesterday, we celebrated his 69th birthday. It was a simple family gathering; all the children, their spouses and children were present. The simple celebration started after the terawih prayer (terawih prayer is a special prayer performed by muslims only during the ramadhan or fasting month). Of course the happiest were the grandchildren; each was presented with some amount of money. The children and their spouses were presented with copies of the Quran. Oh, there was also food.

Happy 69th birthday. May Allah bless you.
