Can we please - in the Holy Month of Ramazan - stop moaning about our families and rather pray for them!!?
This is the Holy Month in which the Qur’an was revealed to Muhammad Mustafa (saw) and we should focus on burning our bad deeds and develop good deeds. Give Love, not Hate. Spread Love, not Hate. Don’t expect, is Allah expecting something from us!? No, he isn’t , otherwise he would punish us for every sin. He is the Almighty, the Merciful and only he should be praised and Muhammad (saw) is his Messenger.
Please go deep into your heart and search for the flaws in yourself instead of pointing your finger at someone. Try to avoid arguments by saying I’m fasting or when you are not, then just ignore them.
Sometimes it’s very hard to ignore some people, but we should try our best and ask Allah for help. We should follow into the footsteps of our Rasool (saw) who led every conversation peacefully and handled every argument with the best manner the world hasn’t seen after it again.
So let’s make Dua for those who went astray and for those who give us a hard time. Let us pray.Your Success is in the Dua.
I wish you all a happy, blessed & a fruitful Ramazan which makes you a new human being. A true believer and a true fighter for the sake of God. Please also do pray for me that I do my “Itekaaf” this year. Please pray for me that Allah guides me. Guidance is important, when you don’t have one, you’ll be lost.
Thank you for sharing that with us Numb - that was very beautifully written.
I am trying to control my lil temper - its hard when you are in that sort of situation but you have to remember that you are fasting and have to abstain from these moods or wording/attitudes.
May Allah reward you spreading this msg. May Allah guide you on the right path always and i pray that inshallah your itekaaf goes well.
If we follow it during this holy month, get enough practice, and the continue to follow it throughout the year, our lives can be much better. Sure it’s not a piece of cake to do this, but it’s nothing impossible.
**Please recite Sura Al-Fateha and Drood-Shareef. It will help you. Forget the materialism in this Holy Month. Remember Allah and he will remember you.
Allah says:
If you give me one of your hand, I will give you half of my arm. If you give me the half of your arm, I will give you my whole arm. AND IF YOU WALK TOWARDS ME, I WILL RUN TOWARDS YOU.
I always remember everyone. Even the people I don't know. If my prayers help you, it helps me. Please also do pray for me as I need more guidance. I need Allah's hand, love. I was on the wrong track for 7 years and now I decide to change the way completely. I thought I have no one. I even forgot Allah, but he never forgot me. He always remembered me somehow. I was not an example to follow and it ashamed me to death. Thanking Allah for 'counting' on me and my 'skills' isn't enough. I need to fall down on my knees and praise him. I cannot continue living like I lived.
It kills me. Materialism kills you, living only for yourself kills you, sleeping kills you, drinking kills you, smoking hash or weed kills you. I hope I can reach my aims.

I was blinded by the materialism and realized how blinded other people are, too. I was in Frankfurt and it shocked me that Arabs were calling me to sell their hash, weed, drugs etc. to me One gazed at me and I just shaked my head and said No. I wanted to answer him, but in the end intelligence wins, because I was fasting and it would have led to a 'brutal' verbal act while fasting and this is not the sense of fasting.
^ Welcome to the United Ummah. They know nothing but their own selfish needs. You know what happened last year in Ramazan? I wasn't fasting and asked a Arab Man if had leaves so I could roll a joint.
What was his reply? 'Brother I'm fasting, come later...'
The Deen has gone very far away...I saw nearly every muslim youngster smoking cigarettes, walking with girls etc. It has gone far away. To me it really seems like only the name Islam is left, but no one is living Islam. I wish I could reach the people. May Allah help me reaching the people. I'm trying to convert few of my friends.
It's better to be on Allah than on any drug. Kiya Nasha hai Khuda ka.
Nice message Numb. May Allah have mercy on all of us. Not only during the month of Ramadan but be kind and thoughtful of others all the time. Help the needy and Allah will shower his bounties on you.
