Eid was finished several days ago but I don't feel like everything back to normal in Jakarta. Some shops are still closed and the streets are empty. Everyone is enjoying Eid holiday, a bless to have Eid as national public holiday here. I just wanna say "you guys are amazing!" for people who needed to show up for work or class in the Eid day. Not only in London, but also the workers in Jakarta (the convenience storekeepers, polices, etc). Eid Mubarak! #jakartavslondon #jakarta #london #comics #webcomic #eid #working #komik #lebaran #hariraya #muslim #holiday #adobeillustrator #illustration #digitalcomics #lifeinlondon #hijabi

It's more challenging if we do fasting after Ramadan. Fasting in summer is even harder. But have you heard about 6 days Shawwal fasting? . Brace yourself, this is the last chance to do the 6 days of Shawwal. You can finish all 6 days if you do it from Sunday to Friday, because the last day of Shawwal is the next Friday. You can do it! Insha Allah, if we do it together with our family and friends, fasting will get easier . "Whoever fasts Ramadan and follows it with six days of Shawwal, it will be as if he fasted for a lifetime." Narrated by Muslim, Abu Dawud, At-Tirmidhi, An-Nisa'i and Ibn Majah Tag your friends and let's do it! ???? . #jakartavslondon #jakarta #london #shawwal #syawal #fasting #sawm #comics #illustration #muslim #hijabi #komik #komikislami #reminder #studyinuk #hijrah #muslimreminder #webcomic #puasasyawal #hadith #webcomics

[swipe to see timelapse] [Zoom to read the words] . No doubt public buses are one of the cheapest options to go around. In Jakarta, I love the pink bus, special for women. While in London, the bus drivers are amazing. They always drive skilfully in narrow roads. . . #fadilahinlondon #jakartavslondon #jakarta #london #bus #public #transjakarta #doubledecker #redbus #timelapse #webcomics #komik

In Jakarta, I will end up wearing jacket when I ride motorcycle, or when I’m sick. Because Jakarta is sizzling hot ????☀️☀️. Meanwhile, I feel like summer in London is mild for me. And spring is still cold (where is sunshine?). Better to be prepared with a jacket everyday. . “And Allah has made for you, from that which He has created, shadows and has made for you from the mountains, shelters and has made for you garments which protect you from the heat and garments which protect you from your [enemy in] battle. Thus does He complete His favor upon you that you might submit [to Him].” (An Nahl:81) . #jakartavslondon #jakarta #london #fashion #hijabi #hoodie #tshirt #cold #timelapse #illustrator #webcomic #digitalillustration #adobeillustrator #komik

I was surprised when my classmate told me, some swimming pools have dedicated hours for women only. She always swim during that time. So she asked me to join when she knew I love swimming . Women-only swimming pools exist in Jakarta. But when I heard in London they have “women hours” pools and gym, I can’t help but say Alhamdulillah ????????. . Do you love swimming too? . “Any action without the remembrance of Allah is either a diversion or heedlessness excepting four acts: walking from target to target (during archery practice), training a horse, playing with one’s family, and learning to swim”. (Reported by al-Tabarani on good authority.) . #jakartavslondon #jakarta #london #swimming #women #hijabi #sport #komik #comics #webcomics #iqomic #komikanu #komikinajah #hadith #muslim

If you were in Jakarta, and see many cows, lambs, and goats suddenly appear on the streets, it means Eid Al-Adha is around the corner. And I kind of missed it when I was in London. Well, I didn't miss the smell tho ????. But now, if you have no time to select your lamb or goat, you can buy it online. And your qurbani can go as far as Africa or Palestine. Check the link in my bio. . "Indeed, We have granted you, [O Muhammad], al-Kawthar. So pray to your Lord and sacrifice [to Him alone]." (Alkawthar:1-2) . #eiduladha #jakartavslondon #komikstrip #komikin_ajah #qurbani #iduladha #kurban #online #eidmubarak #comic #illustration
