Chaotic.....Egypt

The news are updated every second about the condition in Egypt. More chaos and tensions in Cairo. Many casualties were reported when two groups, supporters and protesters clashed in Cairo. The actions taken by Malaysian government to evacuate Malaysians from Egypt are welcomed and these actions required a very complex logistics planning. Cairo International Airport is packed with thousands of people and the situation is out of control. The parents really worried about their children in Egypt. More interestingly, the crisis in Egypt also skyrocketed the crude oil price to USD103! Additionally, all Muslims in Malaysia also encouraged to perform prayer of need or "solat hajat" for the safety of Malaysian in Egypt. JAKIM instructed all mosques to perform this solat hajat after Friday prayers tomorrow. So, I would like to invite all to join this solat hajat........
