Tonight is the first night of the Holly Month of Ramadan. We have prayed night prayer in congregation, which is a soothing and soul-rejuvenating experience. Allah has bestowed upon us this month to be an opportunity to cleanse our soul and pause for refueling! an opportunity to get closer to Allah by purifying ourselves from the being attached to earthly subjects and focus on the hereafter. Observing fasting during the month of Ramadan is like a training camp for the person to strengthen one's will and self-control and free oneself from being a salve of lusts and whims. It is an opportunity to boost our piety and closeness to Allah Almighty. Our inner peace and true happiness comes from being true lover and obedient of Allah's guides and commands. When we migrate from being enslaved by our earthly desires and greed to becoming servants of Allah, the prize is beyond one's imagination. Satan will do whatever possible to deviate us from benefiting by this experience. So, let's be smart enough to make the most of this month ... Ramadan Mubarak .. tomorrow I will travel again to Amman Jordan to spend a week with the family. It is a heart-pleasing to be together!
