Happy eid...


I am so sorry for the late update, as I was pretty busy with the house chores as well as hanging out with my family :)

Well,during ramadhan we know that this is the month where all "Rahmat""Maghfirah" and "barakah" is prepared for us.And of all the advantages,one of the virtues that fasting is supposed to teach is patience. Patience, as we know it, does not come naturally in a human being. This is proved by how impatient all children are; regardless of their race and origins. So, it is up to the ones around them to teach them.The act of fasting is said to redirect the heart away from worldly activities, its purpose being to cleanse the inner soul and free it from harm. It also allows Muslims to practice self-discipline, self-control,sacrifice, and empathy for those who are less fortunate; thus encouraging actions of generosity and charity(Zakat). Erm,this year my Love is responsible to pay the Zakat for me..This is something quite peculiar as before this My dad is responsible of paying the zakat and so on and so forth..In addition to zakat and fasting, Muslims are encouraged to read the entire Qur'an. Some Muslims perform the recitation of the entire Qur'an by means of special prayers, called Tarawih, which are held in the mosques every night of the month, during which a whole section of the Qur'an.
Herm,We will be missing this Ramadhan as we do not know whether or not we might be able to meet this month full of "Barakah'next year....wallahualam..
