Fasting month is fast approaching...August.Abstain from eating, drinking,sexual activities from break of dawn till sunset.Not going to mention the scenario....yeah you know,the same scene at the bazaar ramadzan ~ rushing home from work,rushing to do the buying,cooking and to break the fast.Many who fast,gets only hunger and thirst,no other benefits.
Forget what our master the Prophet says ?One who fasts has two satisfactions,when he breaks his fast and the other is when he sees.The first satisfaction is the pleasure of eating after a day of fasting.The second satisfaction 'when he sees' is the greatest joy of seeing the truth,the meaning of fasting,with the secret eye of the heart !One too little are those who did the spiritual fasting,protecting the senses and thoughts from all that is unlawful ~ the opposites of love, such as back biting,hatred,greed even evils of the hands and tongues in hurting others.The slightest breach of that intention breaks the fast !!This is true fasting,continues and lasts throughout one's temporal and eternal life.It is the secret connection between us and the essence of Allah,the love of Allah.Then only is victory celebrated,Hari Raya (the big day),marking the end of the fast and the beginning of one's 'new birth'.......insyaallah.
Terima kasih Allah, Raikan cinta.
