Look at the moon!!

Back then when there were still freedom of speech culture at the mosque, there was this guy of uncertain origin who would stand up after Jumaah prayer to deliver his own version of radical sermon.
He dresses in an arabic style jalabiya with turban and carried with him a small back pack and a cane. So, in his unique attire he not mistakenly often look out of place amidst the blue jeans and sweater the normal wear for university student, me included.
His speech will include going out on jihad and halal haram stuff much to the annoyance of the "normal" mosque patronage. I certainly don't blame him for standing up for his belief, albeit on the extreme but somebody has to keep reminding the public that its not just enough performing prayers but lacking da'wah.
Among my friends, he was fondly known as the "Look at the moon!" brother. The story of my first encounter with him was during the first Ramadhan in UK when he stood up after Jumaah and suddenly proclaiming that we have not fasted according to the sunnah. He claims that the "hilal" or "son" of the moon (sic) was already visible but we did not started fasting immediately. And so a debate ensued afterward, but i don't care anymore. Just follow the majority lah..
Anyway, as for myself, every time he stood up, I would just slip quietly the back door because I wouldn't want to miss out buying the 3.5 pound Nasi Ayam on sale at the pantry.

The picture of the moon above was taken two nights ago on the 16th night in all its splendor a 97% waning gibbous. The night was a little bit colder as there was no cloud above us to held up the day's heat.

So my friends and I grabbed our spears and decided to go on a night hunt for stingrays. We managed to turn up with a medium size catch not bad on such a beautiful night.
