as ramzan comes to an end, do you think in terms of gaining from this month, and reflecting within it.. is it better than last year or previous years? what are some things you wish you could have done better?
i’m a little gutted that i didn’t set aside enough time to read the quran with its english translation too, just in arabic. i also think i could’ve done more in terms of charity iftars/fundraising.
before a party pooper steps in, yes we should be doing these things all year round but when you’re given a specific month to really focus on it.. there is no harm in maximising sawab during that time.
Not to mention the shooting down of the Malaysian plane.
Since I saw the falling plane video I keep thinking of the qayaamat-e-sughraa inside the nose-diving plane.
Sometimes life seems so unfair.
Feel guilty for enjoying the pleasures of life knowing what is happening to other people.
Allah, please do whatever to make things better. Ameen.
I think the bit about not having enough time for ibaadat is the direct result of electronic and social media eating up all our time and attention. :emmy:
If i look back at past years and compare with current Ramadhan, tbh i hardly did anything this month. and by that i mean its been very less ibadah, less change in pre-ramadhan routine so as a result it feels like my contribution is minimal to avail this beautiful time.
Your time is better spent blogging sex jokes.
Maybe God will also get a chuckle out of them and bless you and give you some brownie points as savaab. Seriously.
It was disappointing. Because of the depressing constant reminders on social media of how people really are faring in the world, muslims killing other muslims, my shia brethren having a tough time, more sunnis going nuts around the world in their extremism, muslim countries falling apart one by one, war now in Pakistan in miramshah, IDP’s, my little fast (basically skipping lunch) paled in it’s meaning. I missed a lot of fasts, in fact probably missed half the month, because I wasn’t disciplined enough to wake up early for sehri. Felt like there was just no point in celebrating this month with all the death and dying, and then personal problems, and all.
you made me sad pcg.
still day left, please indulge.
only time sahabas use to pray for prolonging of their life was before ramazan.
go traweeh listen to quran there is nothing close to human heart then quran.. even in foreign language.
go!!
I pray for you now to end of ramazan. see if you feel it.
the unending and meaningless argumentative threads/posts on GS spoiled the spirit of Ramadhan. a lot of users earned a lot of ‘sawaabs’ for their efforts.
