Every day has its sunset, and some day our lives would have one too. Today marks the 30th day of the Holy month of Ramadan, 1433 years after the Hijirah of our Noble Prophet Muhammad (SAW) from Makkah to Madinah. The month of Ramadan is about to have its final sunset for this year.
Alot has been learnt from the days of Ramadan... the month of fasting, recitation of the Holy Qur'an, helping the needy, visitations, and all other rewarding acts of worship. May Allah (SWT) accept all our good deeds and forgive all our sins and excessess. Ameen.
My Eid Fitr message to Muslims all over the world is that we should always endevour to keep the spirit of Ramadan and the lessons we've learnt from it. We should practice Islaam as practiced and taught by the Holy Prophet (SAW) and his sahabas. We should practice and preach the true teachings of Islaam to the best of our ability so that on the Day of Judgement, Allah (SWT) will be pleased with us. Let the non-Muslims see the excellent teachings of Islaam in us. They shouldn't merely recognize us as Muslims just by our names, but they should see the true teachings of Islaam in our character as well. Let us strive towards the path of good.
The end of the Holy month of Ramadan doesn't only herald the beginning of the month of Shawwal, in which we celebrate eid Fitr and fast extra six days, it also means that 30 days have been deducted from the days Allah (SWT) willed for us to live on Earth. So let us have the fear of The Almighty in whatever that we do for we don't have the guarantee that we will live to see next year's Ramadan.
May Allah (SWT)'s blessings be upon His bondmen who glorify and fear Him. Ameen.
Eid Mubarrak.
