Ramadhan 2008
Monday September 1, 2008
A month to mend the broken, the holiest in the Islamic calendar. Abstaining not only from food, drinks during the day, but also from worldly pleasures that corrupts. As mere imperfect mortals who often make mistakes knowingly or unknowingly in everyday life, comes forth a blessed month devoted to cleansing our souls of all wrongs and bringing our hearts closer to the master designer of all life. And so, a humble beginning awaits.
Once a year, this precious golden opportunity arises. Ask, wish, hope, beg, cry to Him with a sincere heart for the good things such as health, love, prosperity, spiritual strength – anything. Any prayers put forth in this month, with His will, will be granted. If not in this life, then in the hereafter. Such is the unwaivering fairness of the creator. Never despair, solidify that faith and leave it all up to Him. After all He knows everything best.
Today I’m still alive and am grateful for the countless chances at redemption presented once again. Lets hope this will be a special one for all. Never shall we be lost and wandering in the dark again. Lord grant us lots of strength, courage, patience, compassion and endurance to sail through this magical month and come through it at the end, a whole and much better person than we were yesterday. So to You, I humbly submit.
With His will, till we meet the next Ramadhan.
