Ahla Wasahlan Ya Ramadhan

*knock knock* Ramadhan's here for its yearly visit. And I welcome it with open arms.

Assalamulaikum everyone. Today's the second day of Ramadhan already! Everyone's been buzzing about it ever since last week, from Twitter to Facebook to Tumblr. We all couldn't contain our excitement. After all, the holy month of Ramadhan is the time where we withhold our desires. Delete the sins, search for rewards and charge your imaan.

Besides, it's the best thing to be excited about, rather than jumping up and down over celebrities and movies. *ehem ehem, Justin Bieber spotted on Wangsa Walk anyone?*

I pledge to make this the best Ramadhan out of all the others. I don't mean eating the best-tasting food or anything like that. But instead, I mean to say that I would want to be the best Muslim I can be during this Ramadhan. And that means less tv, twitter and talking and more Quran and al-zikr reciting. Nevertheless, I was quite devastated when I found out that I couldn't celebrate the first day of Ramadhan. Or the next day, and the next day either. That's usually the best part of the entire month, and I missed it. I'm not even sure whether I can go for the annual Aidilfitri prayers! But I'm praying hard that I would still make the most out of this month, even if it means missing the Aidilfitri prayers and the first day of Ramadhan.

Let us hope that our ibadah during this wonderful month will be accepted by Allah the Almighty and may He bless us all.

It's only the second day of Ramadhan, but we have all concluded that the theme for this year's baju raya is green. Wee. Better get started on the baju raya shopping! Haha.


xoxo,
Zafirah.
