Over on Facebook, almost all muslims are talking about the upcoming holy month of Ramadhan. And I'm one of them. :) 3 and a half days to go now actually. After this period, all muslims shall be fasting during the day and at night striving upon gaining the great benefits hidden within the month.
This Ramadhan shall be a whole new experience to me. Being already wedded, this coming fasting month will definitely make a huge difference to my usual fasting routine.
For the last 3 years of being a single careerwoman, Ramadhan was taken lightly by me. Sahur was very simple; just kurma, hot tea & plain water. Even breaking the fast was as simple; some kuih, cold drink and that is it. When it comes to terawikh prayer, I have to admit that I was a bit liat to perform it after I have started renting outside the college. Astaghfirullah. It was much easier to perform the terawikh prayers when I stayed within the college vicinity since it is just walking distance.
*sigh* teruk kan I dulu!
This coming Ramadhan, hopefully things will improve for the better. Question is, will I be as good as my mum?
Kalau dulu masa kecik-kecik, rasa kagum sangat dengan Mummy masa sahur and berbuka and even lepas terawih. Just how she managed to whip up a scrumptios meal for the whole family is truly amazing! Dalam kita ngantuk2 bangun sahur, tengok2 kat meja terhidang makanan favourite: telur mata goreng dengan kicap! Pastu setelah terjelepuk lembik baru belajar puasa, Mummy hidangkan nasi ayam ngan air sirap bandung. Lepas terawikh pulak, ade mihun goreng. Kagum oh!
*suddenly tak sabar nak balik berpuasa dengan Mummy*
Hehe! InsyaAllah, dengan kehadiran sang suami buat kali pertama dan adik lelaki di rumah kami, moga sambutan Ramadhan kami kali ni lebih meriah daripada biasa. Kena lebih rajin masuk ke dapur, lebih ringankan kaki melangkah ke masjid dan insyaAllah, ringankan mulut untuk membaca Al-Qur'an.
May you have a blissful Ramadhan people!
