Hi my friends.....
Just a few words for ALL people,especially my friends in EC
We know that Eid Al-Fitr marks the end of the month of Holy Ramadan. We r saying farewell to the blessed month, its beautiful days and its fragrant nights. We r leaving the month of seeking nearness to Ar Rahmaan, the school of Imaan and an opportunity to recharge our spiritual batteries.
But there r some questions here...
In the previous nights, we prayed, offered charity and attended lectures. What will happen now? Have we fulfilled the requirements of Taqwa and graduated from this school with the diploma of the God Fearing?
Under my beliefs Eid Al-Fitr must not just mark the 'end' of Ramadan Al-Mubarak. Rather, it should be a new beginning, where we emulate our character and Islamic values, which we have focused upon for the past 30 days. We are like a child out of the womb, pure and innocent....YES...A NEW BEGINNING.... let the Masjid still overflow with worshippers; let the Glorious Qur'an be the most essential part of our lives instead of letting it gather dust on our shelves. Our condition SHOULD be better than before Ramadan Al-Mubarak.
Just as, when a person goes to a college, or a university and at the completion of his course, he receives his award marking his achievement, we must understand that, the month of Holy Ramadhan is a spiritual university where we are being trained to achieve Taqwa. The day of Eid Al-Fitr is when Allah is awarding us for our achievements....so let's GATHER THEM....
my dear friends....

Dear Esmaeil, without any exaggeration, it was sooo nice blog and I really enjoyed. Unfortunately, I didn't see this blog when you posted it. Anyway whenever you catch the fish, it is fresh !!
May Allah bless and help us to keep our taqwa and understand next Ramadan. Thanks for sharing.
Truly yours
you are completely right Arif......
Allah has made many ways available for us to worship....
not just offering prays and fasting......many people describe Islam on the basis of their ignorance....I fear that non-experts ruin the Islam by their false information...
thank u Arif
I greatly thank you for your time Dara and Arif.
yes Dara..u r right.we should continue to worship Allah forever.These days Muslims have faith in Ramadan more than other months, but some don't know Ramadan is an opportunity to practice patience and endurance and it helps u to recharge our batteries for the remaining 11 months instead of consuming it to 0%.......haha.....it's funny to say that the number of worshipers in some mosque drop drastically to half....some people believe that Allah is worshiped only in Ramadan.. Muslims must be firmly aware that Ramadan is only a means and not an end...
I hope we keep on praying after Ramadan as we were doing during Ramadan...........
Khaili khob Esmail. We should continue to worship Allah. not only during Ramadan but for the rest of the year. God created us so as to worship Him, therefore, the worshiping should be forever. Happy eid to you Esmail!
"Have we fulfilled the requirements of Taqwa and graduated from this school with the diploma of the God Fearing?"
Good question. It depends on how much you strive in this month. The more you strive, the more you gain Chastity, the more you fill your heart with taqwa. Taqwa is gradually fed away when you turn back from what you practise during the month of blessing. There is a large number of people who become Muslims during Ramadan, but as soon as the Moon of Shawwal appears and Devil is released, they disappear from mosque. It means their intention was never to gain taqwa. I hope answer your query
