JAKARTA - Happiness is still felt by the couple Tariq Halilintar and Aaliyah Massaid who recently welcomed the birth of their first son on June 13 yesterday.

Tariq tried to explain his feelings when he first won the title to become a father and hugged his son after being born into the world.

"Thank God, the first days are still overwhelmed, so until now, we have not been able to compile good words, how it felt from yesterday that we were given an extraordinary blessing from Allah SWT," said Tariq Halilintar, quoted by VOI from YouTube Intense Investigation, Monday, June 16.

"Given the child still needs to be echoed first because it feels still like that, it's still overwhelmed," he continued.

Furthermore, Tariq explained the meaning of the name of his first child, Ahmad Arash Omara Tariq, which was taken from the names of the believers.

"This means that Ahmad is from the most noble human being. If Arash means the highest, if Omara is from Sayidan Ummar, if Tariq, that's his father's name," explained Tariq Halilintar.

Tariq also said that it was related to the weight and length of his first son who was born by caesarean.

"Yesterday's weight was 3.84 kilos. It's 4.85 cm or 49 cm high like that," said Tariq.

For now, Tariq said that if Aaliyah Massaid was still focused on undergoing the recovery process, he hoped that his wife could return to her normal activities again.

"The mother is still recovering, hopefully the recovery will continue until the road and activities can be as usual, now we are focused on recovery first," he said.
