Best Wishes Upon You, And Blessing Upon You and Barakah ALLAH upon you

Alhamdulillah, we had been fasting for 2 days and 3 nights we do the terawih prayer at the musollah… How are you guys been? Feeling more healty? Or feeling a little tired because of the fasting?

I took a little time off from study cardiovascular module… maybe an hour or so… I really hate reading embryology… but what to do…

Firstly, I would to congratulate my juniors, batch 2012/2013 medical students for passing their finals iin both the 1^st and 2^nd semesters. For those who are unfortunate to have failed 1, 2 or even 8 papers, no worries, you can still try your best in reseats exams. Don’t take this failure as ALLAHs punishment, but a blessing in disguise… ALLAH knows that you could face his test… ALLAH plans are the best… We will all pray for you…

Okey, back to the topic…

Ramadhan For You and Me

From my last blog, I had said that Ramadhan is actually a platform for to change for the better… well for me, it is…

Readers, try to look at your surroundings’… you just got to notice that everything seems islamic, eventhough it should be like that even it is not Ramadhan…

Even you guys felt the increase in faith and virtue of islam…

As we all know, fasting in Ramadhan or even not in Ramadhan, is not just about not eating and not drinking, its more to that… its about lowering your gaze towards anything that would increase your nafs, its about not arguing, swearing, lying, wasting time or any other sins that we actually do when we not fasting… its also the month that every deed that we commit will be rewarded tenfold…

Sadly, we are doing this in months other than Ramadhan…

Its bitter, its painfull but it is the truth…

I’m not saying that just because I saw it, but because I also experience it…

But it is a blessing in disguise… Ramadhan is the month of blessings…

I quoted this from facebook, I can’t remember who wrote it, my friends was sharing this ustaz quote…

“we see women who are in the sense are naked, wearing the hijab in Ramadhan, we see men who rarely in the musollah are now in musollah in Ramadhan, people who never pray and they pray in Ramadhan, we are seeing people who are committing sins, leaving those sins and doing deeds and ALLAH biddings… Alhamdulillah, its blessing… eventhough these people, are only doing this in the month of Ramadhan, Alhamdulillah… because in other month, they didn’t have the opportunity to be close to ALLAH… and they are being close to ALLAH in this blessed and holy month of Ramadhan… we should doa for them, for they could istiqomah”

The words were not really the same, but that was my understanding about the quote…

That’s why I said Ramadhan is good platform to change… in the sense of that, other than our 5 senses, sight, smell,hearing, taste and touch, which have been hyper-active because of fasting, we had another sense that been hyper-active… that is our FAITH…

Our hearts were actually tainted by our sins for the past month, it had been tainted so bad, but Alhamdulillah, we have Ramadhan, to clean it, to purify our hearts… Alhamdulillah…

So, for those who actually trying to catch a train back to Islam, becoming a better muslim or a better mukmin, take this chance… you had your surroundings, the increase in faith and awareness and many others to help you return…

But….

“Eh, bulan posa baru nak mai surau… nanti tak posa, tak nampak la kan”

“wah dah pakai tudung, jangan lepas bukak posa, tudung tuh dah melayang”

Ignore them… ignore them… who are to judge you, for your past sins… actually they doing sins, judging and be little you…

Accept it as test from ALLAH… ALLAH knows you can do it…  So you, the only that’s stopping you… is YOU!

SO yeah, for those who repenting, trying to change to become a better muslim and mukmin, take this chance… don’t lose it, it won’t come back for a long time… and I’m afraid if this is our last Ramadhan… Grab the chance and use it…

Well, its still early in Ramadhan, we have 27 days more… don’t forget to do charity, deeds and ALLAH biddings… and not forget Sunnah…

Happy Fasting

Don’t forget to Sahur
