Today is the 5th of Ramadhan,1429.Let us thank Allah swt for His Rahmah on us to be present in this Ramadhan.This is a great present from Allah to us-another chance is given for us to do more ibadah to Him.If we don't take this chance,it is at our own perils.We are the losers..
[1] He Who created Death and Life, that He may try which of you is best in deed; and He is the Exalted in Might, Oft-Forgiving;
[2] Dialah yang telah mentakdirkan adanya mati dan hidup (kamu) untuk menguji dan menzahirkan keadaan kamu: Siapakah di antara kamu yang lebih baik amalnya; dan Dia Maha Kuasa (membalas amal kamu), lagi Maha Pengampun, (bagi orang-orang yang bertaubat);
What have we done in the last five days? Just list them down.In most cases(talking from personal experience), we could have done more. Many of us are still in the state of " lagho"(heedlessness) and will continue to do so (if no action taken) until the end of Ramadhan. Then, we again regret (year after year) and do'a again so that we can be around at the next Ramadhan.
Be very careful how our first week of Ramadhan goes. It will reflect on how we are going to repeat that in the next three weeks.
Let's read and contemplate the surah Al-'Asr:
[1] By (the Token of) Time (through the Ages), [2] Verily Man is in loss, [3] Except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy.
[2] Demi Masa! [2] Sesungguhnya manusia itu dalam kerugian; [3] Kecuali orang-orang yang beriman dan beramal soleh dan mereka pula berpesan-pesan dengan kebenaran serta berpesan-pesan dengan sabar.
Salam Ramadhan al-Mubarak to all muslims/muslimahs.
