13 February.
This will be our last full day at Istanbul.
Today,
After breakfast,
We went straight to Emimonu station,
and ride a ferry across Golden Horn of Bosphorus Canal,
Our destination is Eyup Sultan,
where lies the tomb of Ayub al-Ansari, companion, the sahabat of Rasulullah p.b.u.h.
the one who first tried to conquer The Byzantine,
and there's also the mosque of Sultan Eyup.
We met a professor whom explain a little bit about Ayyub al-Ansari.
We're still confused about Ayyub al-Ansari and the Eyup Sultan.
Either it's 2 different person or same.
it's so crowded infront of his tomb, well as like Ustaz Azam said,
"tempat-tempat makam ulama', mustajab berdoa."
Then, we ride the ferry to get back to Eminonu Station,
have some meal.
and went back to the hostel.
At the night,
All of us went for a walk around Istanbul except for Faiz.
We met the kind caligraphy couple whom Afifi met yesterday,
And they were very kind.
Meanwhile,
Afifi went alone.
Seems like he doesn't want to leave Istanbul yet.
We found him alone in front of the Blue Mosque with his hot chocolate,
with quite a sorrowful face.
on our way back.
Now, all of us started to pack our backpack
ready for tomorrow.
Our last day at Istanbul.
