Begin this new passage with a common phrase: Stay at Home.
This common phrase is related to the worldwide disease named COVID-19. Because of the disease, all students, all workers, all teachers and lecturers, most of the officials, have to stay at home. We have to study from home, teach from home, and work from home. For me, my self, this situation at least let me and my family stick together at home. We manage time together to do each assignment, responsible for each duty and exercise or refresh some things for some times. What's more, after over 5 years I lost my id and password for this website that made me unable to update my passages, my husband finally found it. Yes, because of staying at home, spending enough time to search and trace, I finally gain my id to update this website, my wonderful virtual home...
Regarding the current situation, the COVID-19 has effected a lot of changes in our lives. In my online groups, everybody seems to be the reporter and the expert of the disease; everyone tries to inform anything by anyone without checking the truth and the validity of the information. Therefore, for me and my family, it is better to manage our schedule and take a real action. Every one in our family has his/her own schedule to be completed.
It has been a week for our staying at home. My husband, as a government official, has to do his duty via online application from 7.30 am to 4.30 pm. My kids, they have their own schedule from their schools from 7.00 am to 12.00 am. Meanwhile, I, my self, have to do the households first, then I can do my responsibilities as a lecturer and as a thesis assistant. At night, after isya, we spend our time together by reciting and discussing the holy Al Qur'an and also the Al Hadith, from 8.00 pm to 9.00 pm. In the morning, before we have the breakfast, we do some exercises such as stretching and jogging for about a half an hour. Exercises are good for your health, particularly for your respiratory organs. My kids also have their own time to do their favourite, such as playing electone, reading books, playing games, watching movie (only one movie for one day), and many others.
Above all of the activities, one thing that we should do every day, and for my family every after our pray, it is a prayer.
"Allahumma innii a'uudzubika minal baroshi, wal junuuni, wal juzaami, wamin sayyi'i, al asqoomi."
(HR. Abu Dawud).
Stay at home probably is not easy for some of you. Unfortunately, this is what you have to face it for the next days or months. So, dealing with this unexpected situation, let's make it as happy as you can by managing your schedule from day to day. You can do some exercises, complete your responsibilities, and also do your favourite one in a while. Just stay at home, don't be panic, don't go for a picnic, and make it asyiiiikkk....ππ
