Hadith :

Dari Abu Dzar r.a bertanya:”Ya Rasulullah! Masjid manakah yang mula-mula dibangun kan di muka bumi ini?” Jawab Rasulullah s.a.w :’Masjidil Haram!” Aku bertanya lagi:”Sesudah itu masjid apa?” Jawab baginda:”Masjidil Aqsa!” Aku bertanya lagi:”Berapa lamakah jarak antara kedua masjid itu dibangunkan?” Jawab baginda:”Empat puluh tahun.. Dan di mana sahaja kamu berada jika waktu solat telah tiba, maka solatlah (segera) kerana bumi ini adalah masjid (tempat sujud).”

My first ever macro shot.

This spider did not move the whole time I was snapping away (with the flash!). I think I blinded its eight eyes.
