Your favourite things about Ramadan?

I love the family being together at sehri and iftar.

The sense of achievement at the end of each fast, particularly on the first day!

Feeling closer to God.

Even though we don’t all start and end Ramadan at the same time, the sense of belonging to something that millions of muslims all over the world are partaking in.

You?

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

i LOVE iftaar time comments by family...some interesting, some hilarious and some outright annoying lol...i LOVE the courtesy that people extend in general during Ramadhan. i wish we all continue the same after ramadhan as well.

Eid :@:

jk where do I start, everything from family time to spiritual cleansing makes this month pure awesomeoness.

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

There are loads of things I love about Ramadan.

But the one that springs to mind the most, is how courteous people are in this month, and how there seems to be a so much kindness because all the muslims are unified in this month.

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?


true...same here...BUT, unfortunately, all the courtesy and all the goodwill gestures come crashing down with the horrible news of Muslims killing Muslims thru suicide bombings and/or target killing or by random shootings...i hope this year they will NOT do that...aameen

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

That everyone pretends to be religious. Then as soon as Eid ka chaand is anounced, it's back to the usual.

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

Relaxed Office Timings :)

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

Reciting Qur'an with tarjuma & tafseer and getting new insights from the already read parts.

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

Eid

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

Seeing my Muslim people break iftar, the community feeling...me trying to be a good muslim.

Losing weight, feeling the hunger of the poor, taraweihs, roof afzah breaths, Eid, my parents visiting me, pakorey!!

I LOVE BEING A MUSLIM :)

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

Tarawehian at night with friends! :d A valid reason to come home late...after tarawehian spending time with friends is the best time :p

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

different kinds of food.. pakoray and fruit chat!!

shortened office timings

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

I have a lot...

the sense of unity amongst all muslims worldwide.
the inner feeling that makes you want to do good and spread the goodness.
the peace,
the hope that maybe this time all my sins would be forgiven and i will be granted jannah iA,
the hope that the duas that i make earnestly all year round...may come true this month iA.
the spirituality, the feeling of being close to Allah esp in the last 10 odd nights.

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

I think that since Ramzan is the month of mercy where we are urged to make lots of dua.......there's just this greater feeling of "hope" that things will improve in the future....a greater feeling of hope that prayers will be answered. Also, more of an effort to better yourself as a person.

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

The relaxed environment at office and you can blame everything on roza, whether you keep it or not :hypo:

Re: Your favourite things about Ramadan?

Lol, I never quite get that. For example, when girls wear hijabs during the month of Ramadan, and as soon as Eid comes, that's it, the scarves are off and their identities as Muslims are gone. Or when Muslims read their 5 obligatory prayers in this holy month, and after the month, they decide that it's somehow not an obligation anymore.

I don't know how people reason with themselves to stop doing good after they have been doing the same thing day-in-day-out for 29/30 odd days.
