It's now approaching 2300hr as I'm typing this. Abt 4 hours ago, at dusk, marked de beginning of de fasting month of Ramadhan for Muslims. At least for Muslims in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei lah. I'm not sure about other countries thou. Cos of de difference in time zones and all that.
To all my Muslim brothers and sisters (thx for reading! ^_^), here's wishing us a blessed Ramadhan. May Allah accept our ibadah and shower us with His rahmah, blessings and love. Do not waste this opportunity to reap all the benefits this special month has to offer. We just do not know if we will live to see the next Ramadhan. May this Ramadhan be better than our previous ones. Ameen.
To non-Muslim readers of my blog (thx for reading too! ^_^), below are some articles I found explaining de concept of this blessed month. Pls do read fr de bottom first and top last, ie to say - 'Welcoming the Arrival of Ramadan' first and 'Eat and drink, but be not excessive' last. That way, u'll get a clearer picture. Sure they may be lengthy, but I find that these articles are quite detailed in their explaination. May these be of some help in your understanding of this blessed month. And who knows? If Allah so wills, it may move your heart to become a Muslim too? God willing yeah.
Of course, that doesnt mean de articles are only for non-Muslims. To my Muslim brothers and sisters, may these articles be a reminder of Almighty Allah's graciousness to us in this blessed month of Ramadhan, and motivate us to strive and perform as many good deeds as possible to reap all the benefits that this month has to offer. :)
