Ramadhan Al-Mubarak

PUASA!
Yeah, that's the word.
It has arrived again, the month of fasting and prayer.
Today is the second day, and Alhamdulillah, i still can fast :)
(no cuti-cuti okay? :P)

As we grew up, everything's changed.
The thinking bout Ramadhan has changed too.
Back to those days, I still remember when i was 7,
i kept nagging to my mum.

me: mummy, bila nk buka puasa nih?
mum: sabar laa syg, lagi setengah jam je nak berbuka.

me: lamanya, nak buka sekarang boleh tak?
mum: no you can't, nanti rugi laa tak dapat pahala puasa.

(And i felt like crying at that time just because i can't break my fast eventho its only half an hour left before Azan. HAHA :D)

See, when we're still kids, nagging is a normal thing and
sumtimes people thinks its cute. But now if we did the same thing,
people will like, "ishhh, teruknya budak nih, tak boleh sabar ke?
dah besar pun nak merungut macam budak-budak lagi".
And i can imagine how if i nagged to my mum at this age (i'm 20),
she will surely get really mad with me.

We should welcome this month
and embrace it with happiness and joy.
Its the month that provides an opportunity for forgiveness
from Allah SWT and emancipation from our sins.
Its the month for performing good deeds and giving in charity.
Its the month when the gates of the heavens are opened
and the rewards for our deeds are magnified many times over.
Its the month wherein prayers are answered
and the status of the worshipper is elevated.
Its the month wherein sins are forgiven.

So people, let's complete one of the Islam Pillar with full of
'Blessings from Allah SWT'. May Ramadhan brings more happiness
and may God bless you always. Amin :)

HAPPY FASTING MONTH EVERYONE!
