I'M A DADDY!!!!!!:-) :-) :-) | The Revival

salaam

Allah (swt) has blessed me with a baby boy on Sunday 26th November 2006!!!!

Its the greatest feeling in the world to be a dad!

Alhamdulillah, the baby is healthy and cute, like his dad of course:-)
My wife is also in good health and very happy and proud like me.

Make duaa that my son remains healthy and grows up to be a good person and make duaa that me and my wife are able to bring up our boy to the best of our ability.

The last few days have been crazy, hectic, stressful, exciting, scary, wonderful, nervy and unbelievable....

After witnessing what my wife had to go through during labour...you can only admire and respect women even more...and anyone says they're the weaker sex.... i dont know many guys who could tolerate the pregnancy and labour....:-) 🙂

i read the azaan and iqamaah very shortly after my son was born... again a unique special feeling.

Next , its choosing the name... which me and my wife cant decide....
then its cutting his hair, the chop:-), haqeeqah....etc....

Some advice and tips from parents would be great.....and pls share your own experiences.

i think i have to now grow up:-) and probably have less time for revival...

but remember my little lad in your duaas pls.

wasalaam

[quote]So this mean I am in total charge with no pretenders around?

'tis a good day.

A day to be merry.

I call it "Admin day".[/quote]

Had me wondering what moon we are living on.

Did you have someone pretending to be an Admin because its unitelligable about what you mean by pretenders.

[quote="TheRevivalEditor"]salaam

Jazakhallah for your kind words...

i will register the name tomorrow..
i wanted Jamal:-) but my wife hates it, or i wanted Gibreel, Mekaeel. But she wants either hasan, hadeed or shaheeb :roll:

but we have come to a compromise: Raihaan

what do you think?

every moment with baby is special ...but tiring, no sleep....but all worth it.

he's gonna have his hair cut on Monday....

picking up the baby is anew experience..i actually had a phobia of new born babies...thinking im gonna drop it!

babies are also expensive... but al hamdulilah..alll worth it...

at the mo...dont get much time for revival or anything else:-)

How is circumsicion different from circumcision?

Whatever it is I hope they dont use a blunk knife.

The sharper the knife the better the cut.
