Ngabuburit in the month of Ramadan with my cousin

Hi steemit friends How are you all today? May we all always be given, happiness, and always protected by Allah wherever you are, aamiin.

In the morning, I woke up a little bit later than usual. Because today the weather is very cool, the rain is falling very heavily, making me want to sleep longer. When I woke up, I went straight to the front yard of my house and saw that the rain was still falling very heavily.

My mom took me to the market, but the rain hadn't stopped yet. I was so bored I didn't know what to do. I saw my cat sleeping on my bed like he was cold. I wanted to disturb him and woke him up.

When the rain started to ease, my mother and I immediately rushed to the market. The atmosphere in the market was very crowded and the conditions were very muddy. I didn't have time to take pictures because the conditions were so crowded that I didn't have time to take out my cellphone to take pictures.

In the afternoon, I help my mother cook for breaking the fast later. I help my mother early because this afternoon my cousin and I will go to ngabuburit. Ngabuburit or mengabuburit is an activity of waiting for the Maghrib call to prayer before breaking the fast during the month of Ramadan. Ngabuburit activities can be many things, such as walking, playing, chatting, looking for free takjil, visiting culinary markets or spending time in the park.

After I finished helping my mom, I immediately got ready to go to ngabuburit. After I was done, I immediately took my motorbike out and waited for my cousin. While waiting for my cousin to be ready, I took pictures with my younger cousin.

After a few minutes of waiting for my cousin, she was finally ready. I immediately said goodbye to my mother. My mother also asked me to bring some takjil.

We went around Lhokseumawe city. We also bought some takjil but we forgot to take pictures while we were hunting for takjil. After we finished hunting for takjil, we continued to go around Lhokseumawe city until the sun began to set.

After we were satisfied with walking around, we went straight home because it would be time to break the fast in a few minutes. When I got home, I immediately got ready to wait for the time to break the fast. Not long after I got home, the time to break the fast arrived, we immediately prayed and ate together.

That's all the activities I did today, hopefully in the following days there will be many other activities that I will do and I will also write them here. That's all my stories today, thank you for the steemians who have taken the time to read my short writing.
