The Month of Ramadhan is upon us. And as tomorrow, Shaaban, preceding it comes to a close, Muslims are expected to redouble effort in their service to Almighty Allah through prayers, supererogatory (nafilat) prayers and fasting for in it is assurance of a change of destiny for the faithful. Therefore, this is a special time that demands from the Muslim Ummah a reflection on the many blessings Allah (SWT) has bestowed upon us.
[quote]Let us translate the heightened focus on Allah (SWT), and our appreciation for His blessings into heightened levels of servitude to Him and to our fellow human beings. If we can do that as an entire community, with ample conviction, Allah (SWT) will continue to shower His blessings upon us and He will bless us to be secure in our lives and property. Such blessings are commensurate with the best community raised up for humanity.[/quote]
As for me, fasting in a foreign country during summer has it very own challenge – a long day of 18hours. Nevertheless, its not an excuse to unfulfilled my duty.
To all my fellow muslim and blog reader – Selamat Menyambut Ramadhan Al-Mubarak. May this Ramadhan is the best that we ever had.
