Of Body and Soul
Last Saturday, my wife’s aunt passed away due to cancer. She was in her late 50s. On Sunday morning, we went back to my father in law’s village in Kg Kobusak to pay our last respect before her funeral that afternoon. It was one of the strangest “funeral” I’ve been to.
You might be wondering why was the funeral the day after? Well actually the deceased converted to Islam long, long time ago when she married a Muslim. After having several children together, the marriage collapsed and the husband left her. No one was really sure where he is and nobody really cared.
