Ramadhan 2011

La Hawla WaLa Quwwata Illa billah
There is no Power and Strength except with Allah.

Ramadhan has come, and ramadhan is going to end. Like other Ramadhans, This Ramadhan, to me is a fulfilling one. I have learnt alot of things in this holy month. I've learnt about the power of family, the power of friends. The power of solat, and also tilawat. Alhamdulillah, as most of us have already known, Ramadhan is the month where we train ourself. Where we take a step back and reflect on our traits and habits. This is the time, where we 'brainwash' ourselves and train to become better people.

We pay more attention to offering solat, we listen to tadzkirah and we train our eyes, ears, mouth, hands, feet and importantly heart. We train them to leave most of the bad habits by fasting.

Not only that, every day we fast, we remember those who are less fortunate. And then we become thankful for everything that Allah has given us. Everything that we did not ask for, but Allah presented them to us. Now, everyday I wake up, I feel grateful for the air, skies, food, peace and shelter.

How powerful could a month be?

Its just a month, what is so special?

It's the month which contains the night of power.

So amidst of all that, again, Almighty Allah presented us with Lailatul Qadr. The night which is better than a thousand nights. Where all the fruits of our good deeds, are multiplied.

This ramadhan, I have new resolutions. But I am not going to reveal it here.
It is a calling, and insyallah, One day, you will find out what it is.

This is why I love Ramadhan, and this is why I feel sad that it is going away.

Till we meet again, insyallah.

When a person ends ramadhan with new aspirations, with the feeling of he has improved in the righteous ways, then Allah has accepted his Ibadah.
