Laporan di Ternate / Reports at Ternate

Laporan jemaah keluar di Ternate:

Jemaah naik bot, takde pelabuhan. Rahaba (penunjuk jalan) bekalkan plastik kecil untuk setiap orang. Rupa- rupanya untuk bungkus duit dengan pasport. Sebab takde pelabuhan, kena turun dari bot, dan redah laut untuk ke darat / pantai.

Orang- orang tempatan telah sambut di pantai. Unggun api dipasang untuk keringkan beg- beg dan pakaian jemaah.

Waktu Zuhur, ramai orang datang. Bila jemaah tanya, ada kematian atau kenduri ke? Dijawabnya tak. Orang tempatan beritahu, lelaki 100% solat berjemaah.

Lepas solat, orang tempatan tasykil siapa sedia untuk nusrah taam (sediakan makanan) untuk jemaah? Ramai angkat tangan, dan peliknya ramai yang dipilih. Rupa- rupanya setiap ahli jemaah dibawa ke rumah- rumah yang berlainan. Lauk kangkung, sambal, ikan seekor. Cukup miskin dan daif. Tapi 100% lelaki solat berjemaah dan 100% wanita tutup aurat, kecuali beberapa orang jururawat yang bukan orang tempatan.

Report on jamaat that went to Ternate:

Jamaat rode a boat, but there's no jetty at the island. The local guide gives small plastics to each person. It turns out that the plastics are for keeping the monies and the passport from wet. Since there's no jetty, people have to wade through the water to get to the shore.

Local brothers greeted the jamaat and set up a fire to dry up the bags and the clothes.

During Zuhur time, many people turned out. When jamaat asks, is there any death or feast today, the local brothers answered no, this island, 100% men prays in jamaat (congregation).

After solat, local brothers asked for anybody who's ready to provide food to the jamaat. Many people raised their hands, and strangely many were chosen. Actually, what happened was, each member of jamaat were brought to different houses. The dishes are kangkung (a kind of green vegetation easily found), sambal (chilli paste?) and a small fish. Their conditions are very poor, but 100% men prays in jamaat, and 100% women covered their aurats, except some nurses who are not locals.
