jumu'atul wida


Note to self:

" Jika umat manusia itu mengetahui kelebihan yang terdapat di dalam bulan ramadhan nescaya umatku akan menginginkan supaya dijadikan sepanjang tahun itu Ramadhan" - sabda baginda Nabi Muhammad saw

Ramadhan will bid us farewell next week.
In our sadness bidding farewell to the beloved month, at the same time, dah terbayang melantak banyak banyak on the first day of Eid, kan?

Why do people always take Ramadhan as their sole one month of ibaadah, where they strife day and night, finishing the 30 chapters of Quran, waking up in the middle of the night to perform solitary prayers, filling up the masjids quorum, halting hurtful words to one another all in the name of the fasting month?

And then we go back to the old self. Are we only good muslims oh so periodically?
Is it because that someone is being chained up for good this one month?
But are we not given one advantage over all creations, that we're so gullible with their evil whispers when they're emancipated from the chains that bound them this one month?

I've read somewhere that it is better for us to regard Ramadhan as a bonus to those who had, secara istiqamah, strife for their ibadaah all year round, than to only strife so hard during the Holy Month. While for the rest of the year, they return to their old selves; ditching the hijab, performing solat at the end of the respective times, fasting sparingly, khatam quran jauh sekali.

That it is easier, to prepare ourselves to reap out the benefits of Ramadhan, by striving all year round, including Ramadhan, secara Istiqamah.

Semoga kita semua menjadi Insan Rabbani.
Bukan sekadar insan Ramadhani.

Ramadhan will leave us again.
But its not the end of our inner-jihad.

Until we meet dear Ramadhan again, InsyaAllah.
"Telah datang kepadamu bulan Ramadhan, di mana Allah melimpah ruahkan di dalamnya dengan keberkatan, menurunkan rahmat, mengampuni dosa-dosa kamu, memakbulkan doa-doa kamu, melihat di atas perlumbaan kamu untuk memperolehi kebaikan yang besar dan berbangga mengenaimu di hadapan malaikat-malaikat. Maka tunjukkanlah kepada Allah Taala kebaikan dari kamu. Sesungguhnya orang yang bernasib malang ialah dia yang dinafikan daripada rahmat Allah pada bulan ini."

Selamat menyambut hari kemenangan, eid mubarak!

ramadhan kan bulan bonus sale.sebab tu kena strive betul2 time ramadhan. istiqomah tu memang penting dalam semua aspek..perhaps ramadhan ni adalah kick start to become better..
