Ramadhan: would you rather lose your legs or you eyes?
I was rubbing my eyes earlier today and one stayed blury for awhile, so I closed one eye and looked out with the blury eye, and let me tell you its no fun not being able to see things properly. I can only imagine how bad it would be not being able to walk. At least if you lost your legs you can get prosthetic legs, but if you lose your vision, you can't really replace that, so I would have to say legs.
RAMADAN: True romance does not exist in Heaven?
As heaven doesn't exist, neither can romance exist there
How is Ramadan going?
How is Ramadan going?> BUSYRamadan started on 17th May and I had exams from 24th May to 6th June.Couldn’t do much ibadat.First few days were wasted in adjusting studying and sleeping schedule. ( which wasn’t adjusted ).> 24th MAY 2018 :/I didn’t sleep all night. Although I was fasting, I took a water bottle with me.We used to take exams in college while sitting in an air conditioned room but in the exam centre there wasn’t any such facility.Exam started 15 mins late.Temperature was around 40° C.Reached home at 12:00 pm.I was really tired so I didn’t do anything else except sleeping and offering Zuhr and Asar prayers...My daily routine includedSleeping.Studing.Offering Prayers.Suhoor and Iftar.Taraweeh ( wasn’t regular )anddd mobile phone/ TV ( Suno chanda :P ) etc.Fast forward to 6th June- the independence day :DI planned so much for Iftar but I ended up sleeping the whole day.Here’s what i didWoke up at 7:00pm. Almost 5–10 mins before Iftar.Broke my fast with a glass of water and went to bed again.Got up again offered Maghrib and went to sleep. Again woke up, offered Isha and went to sleep.I finally got up when there were just 15 mins left for suhoor.15 mins !!!! I wanted to cry :/ . I had planned to eat so much and I had just 15 mins :/AND!!!!I was going to eat Burger with coke when my mom gave me a big fat glass of mango shake. I was like “ really, mama?” I’ll actually post a picture of that glassNormal glass vs the one mama gave me !...Then we had to SHIFT to another city because of my papa’s transfer :/ ( I have always been a transfer student. I have studied in 7 schools till now and now it’ll be 8th)We ( me and my mom ) had to pack each and everything. You know what you can’t even leave a cup in a drawer. We packed everyyyything in 3 days.We have shifted. It’ll be our 3rd night here. So yeah the house is not set yet.Everything is a mess.:/ :/ :/There are just 3–4 days left in Eid. I couldn’t feel the essence of this beautiful month and it’s going to end.I am really really sad. You know when you want to drink water but you stop yourself from doing so and then you hear the call of Maghrib, you break your fast …that sip of water….that feeling….believe me that’s one of the best feelings!Tonight is Taq raat.Now what i can do is to get the most of the remaining days.> Ramadan was fast and busy :/Image source : my cell phone
Ramadan is coming. What do you want to tell non-Muslims?
I’m going to write this answer to the non-Muslims that don’t know a whole lot about Ramadan, although I am very aware that there are many non-Muslims who know a ton about it. Thank you to both kinds of people who take the time out of their day to listen or read to try to understand what Ramadan is.The most common comment I get during this time is, “but you can drink water… right?” I’m sorry to dissapoint, but no. I had to explain this concept to most of my teachers every year. Yes, I do get thirsty, especially during the hot, summer days. I won’t die, though. I don’t even come 50% close to that point. Seriously, I’m totally fine.This leads me to my second point: people always tell me that if I eat something in front of them, they won’t tell, or ask me if I secretly eat behind my parents back. Sigh. I mean this with absolute certainty, my parents could stop fasting for Ramadan at any point and I would continue. I don’t do anything I do for my parents in regards for religion. I love them, but all this hard work isn’t for them, which is exactly why it doesn't make sense to secretly break a fast in Ramadan.Now that all that is settled, my last point: don’t feel bad about eating in front of me. I’m used to being around people that are eating. I started fasting all of Ramadan years ago! Year after year, people apologize for eating food when I’m fasting and I kind of appreciate that since I know they’re just being respectful but please don’t stop yourself from eating because I’m around!Once, my close friend was mad at me during Ramadan so she FaceTimed me in the middle of the day. As soon as I picked up, she took a long, cold sip of water from a clear glass, not breaking eye contact the whole time, and then hung up. Now that’s just mean, don’t do that. Just be nice and respectful towards your fellow Muslims. You can even try out fasting for a day (it won’t magically make you Muslim, only eating Shawarma can do that!) if you want, just to see what it’s like.
Ramadan: What's the best cure for dealing with a moody male spouse?
Try these tips sister: 1/ Find out what pleases your husband e.g. making his favourite dish, or giving him a massage etc. 2/ Try out the things above, and then, when you see that he is feeling better, ask him nicely about what is bothering him. Keep eye contact, smile and nod as he talks. Stroke his hair while he talks, it will encourage him to open up. 3/ After he has told you about his problems, try to find a solution together. Show him sympathy, and hug him tightly. Then tell him that you;re always here for him and will try your best to help him and make him happy. Then talk about ways you can both combat the problems. 4/ Always ask your husband how his day was - this shows to him that you love him and care about his feelings, and that you are always ready to empathize and support him. 5/Do more fun stuff together e.g. go out for dinner, or have a candle-lit dinner at home with just the two of you etc. That way, your relationship will build up, and your husband won't suffer from this moodiness, because as soon as he sees you, his happiness will revive, because in his eyes, you should be one who makes him happy :) Hope my tips helped! Sorry, I'm no expert in Love & Relationships :D Salam alaykum sis! :)
Ramadan : Please help my for dirty thoughts, i have severe dirty OCD ?
Sex is not dirty, and it was created by Allah at the same time as He created man and woman so that a husband may be pleasing for his wife, and a wife may be pleasing for her husband. Your thoughts are Allah's promise to you when you get married; it is not something to fear or cry about, but to rejoice and thank Allah for this great gift when it comes. Offer your thoughts up to Allah in your prayers - that way, if they come from the devil, Allah will know how to deal with them, and if they come from Allah, then offer thanks that you are human and alive and even more eager to serve. To do Salah, you must be in a state of ritual purity, but that does not mean you should not be human, with human desires and human feelings. Accept your sexual thoughts in a spirit of love and joy and offer them as your devotional sacrifice, and your heart will become more pure and pleasing to Allah than it would if you were fearful about being burnt in punishment. Let your prayers you recite turn all bad things into good things, and you will have performed the Salah faithfully.
Ramadan: do you agree with uncle rujachat’s quote “old goats like to eat fresh grass”?
It is so true how one could deny.
