Taraweeh Experience

So yesterday my family and I decided to pray at a faraway mosque except that we didnt check the weather forecast before we left. While i was driving a huge storm and rain was pouring non-stop it was really dangerous because i could hardly see my way and plus it was really dark, the worst part was that my brothers as usual sitting in the back were fighting with each other and arguing with me (they are very immature considering that they arent babies and actually teenagers) and that decreased my concentration on the road. Lets just say my driving experience was a nightmare but Allhamdillilah we reached there safely :).

When we finally reached the mosque there were no parking space so i had to park a bit far, so on my walk to the masjid i was drenched i was praying while dripping water :S.
The good thing was that after Isha prayer the mosque was collecting donation money and alhamdillilah they collected about $20,000, incredible right!! plus this sister in the mosque donated $10,000 Masha Allah, may Allah grant her Jannah.

Anywho, the weirdest thing was during Taraweeh i saw this lady at the back praying dressed like this:

( Just minus the hand bag, the boots, the sunglasses and the scarf around her neck)

Basically she was dressed in skinny jeans and a hat to cover her hair except that all her hair was showing, the sister was not even young she was like in her thirties maybe. I was in shock i was going to talk to her but someone came up to her in the end.

So yeah today we are planning to go to the same mosque since we heard there serving free Iftar!! Free Food Yay..which means no cooking :)
