Recalling the memories and Learnings about Ramadan

in Hive Learnerslast year (edited)

How gracious your Lord is in order to make make you love with Him. Each year all of Muslims are blessed with the Holy Month Ramadan. It's the time periods when your good deeds are multiplied and your wrong acts are in the minus phase. You are having the blessings, forgiveness from sins and clearance from hell throughout the month. No matter how cruel you remain still He gives another chance to you for retraction. Through prayers, fasting and distributing food and money among the needy you are getting more close to the pure Human version.

It's not hunger , it's the cut short from the materialistic demands.

Getting closer to Allah, your family and the Muslims community is the essence of Ramadan which transforms your ideology about life.

  • The stronger and infinite Love ;

The ladies make inquiries about the joint and knee pain they obtain while getting old. Here opd doesn't mean crossing the limit of 50. It happens after the child birth, the main cause behind these bone related diseases are the kids. A fetus even absorbs the essential minerals from the bones of the mother when it's within the womb. And after entering the world how much a mother had to run for its growth and development. So in reality a woman starts getting old after childbirth. Somehow she loses the Garace and youth so that she must be valued and repeated as mother. Now imagine why heaven is placed under her feet. She tolerates the middle age crisis, aging and much more stuff for her kids.

Her love is solely pure. And think about the Lord who loves His man more than 70 mothers.

How He will push you into the closed tunnel of hardships. He does all this to examine and observe your patience and faith in Him. Only a few black hearts are not moved to Him. Otherwise forgiveness is granted to everyone.

  • Days spent in no worries ;

Within the short span of life our early Ramadan is spent as the month when we will do mischief throughout the day and no one wouldn't rebuke us. I remember when I was kid I used to hate breakfast as it was the same Sehri being prepared 4 hours ago and my mom refused to make the fresh food as its fragrance might annoy the other people having fast. And in the afternoon time when I saw the brown bread made 10 hours before literally I wanted to commit sucide. I enjoyed the time period when whole family was having fast and only I was there to taste the spice and sugar level of food. I did iftar twice. In the noon time everyone used to sleep and my loneliness escorted me to do funky stuff like discovering the hidden stuff from the store. I had urged my family to step-up TV for me in another room as I feel bored at noon time. And most miserable I feel when there was no drama or other entertaining stuff was broadcasted on PTV. I used to practice the ads being advertised by turning off the sound. ( the secret behind my acting and mimicry skills ROFL) .My family never asked me to do fasting in childhood all that happened was after puberty, why because my mom influenced me to do stuff with your own sense. When you have an idea of everything that you were related to. So till now my wish of 30 days of fasting hasn't been achieved.

  • The present Life ;

Now the scenario is different, responsibilities have made the shoulders heavier. From that helping girl to doing everything by myself. Now even the freshly made don't fascinate, no craze of applying Henna or buying bangles. I always keep the self love behind on each Eid. What matters for me now is to notice the happiness on the faces of kids who glide in the sky after receiving Eidi. I didn't receive the Eidi from everyone because my maternal family was away and brothers were on duties most of the time, there was no such trend of sending money. And what I liked most was receiving that hug or the pat on head from the elders. I was the one who ran for the complements as the best dressed up girl in the family. And now I await the praise as the best cook for making delicious food ( more specifically halwa as I make it with closed eyes now LOL) . From enjoying Taraweeh till crying in each dua I realized how life is harsh. I found no one who would take me away for playing games when the whole realm is offering Namaz Tasbeeh. Friends are not the same, they don't even tolerate that bad joke about the enclosure of satan.

From washing the stains on white clothes now washing the sins of black soul life has hilariously given a strong bolt.

It's not easy to protect your fast while in the past it was auto protected. From skipping the dua after each prayer now emphasizing more and more on this vital part. I can heartily announce that life is not the same….

  • Behind the scene;

Ramdan is the Holy month that is accompanied by Eid. It is specified by fasting from the sunrise till the sunset. Offering prayers, reciting Quran, distributing food, paying fitr( a specified amount paid to needy people ) offering Tarweeh ( where chapters of Quran are recited ) inviting others on Iftar, doing itikaf (staying away from public for ten days and only remaining in solitude in remembrance of Allah Almighty, staying away from forbidden stuff and staying closer to the orders of Allah Almighty each Muslim has been given a chance to learn good deeds, heaven along with forgiveness and blessing. So if you have any thoughts or memories of yourself or any friend do share in the comment section and it's been requested not to indulge yourself in religious hate speech .

As we are maturing up we are turning from being enjoyed to seeing rejoices on others..The more mature one gets , more he/she moves away from the word enjoyment but in this dillemma the thing that remains same is just waiting for aftaar and waking up for sehri….From being just a spectacular of seeing family members eating sehri food to eating sehri excitement is just intact….no change
Journey is just that from reading (fast is not to stay hungry but it is to feel pain of others who has to suffer it not just 30 days) to feeling it in real.Journey is from going to offer prayer as someone elder asked you to fulfill religious rituals to going to that by our own selves as now calmness only lies there
Journey is just knowing how bad you are someone is still waiting for you in HIS bargah❤️❤️❤️

And the most astonishing thing is i even don’t know what i have wrote just surprisingly my fingers started moving after reading your blog😂

Maturity takes our enjoyment and innocence nah 🥺 we are spreading happiness to keep ourselves relaxed but in the past its being done without any effort. It's hard to admit that we are getting old as we know the future is going to become problematic.

Sehri is the blessed period when you wake up to eat but attain observation and mental peace too. His path is difficult but in Ramadan I feel it's so easy to attain His blessings. Thanks for always making me feel special !LUV

In my childhood, I remember long dastarkhuan placed in the living room of my Grandfather (Nana Abbu) and the whole family, a lot of kids and all of my uncles and aunties, we all used to do Iftar together, too many sauces and different varieties of Pakoras. But now, it is not the same or maybe we are not kids anymore so the excitement and interest is not the same. Ramadan is no doubt a great blessing for all of us, it is all about self control and improving ourselves as a good human being. Thanks for sharing your views on it.

Well iftar in maternal is always fun ( I guess whole life is fun there, sorry to admit this but at funerals in childhood we used to enjoy the gathering at their house ) pakoras are the soul of Ramadan and now society prefers snacks and rolls haha. Now our Iftar is meant for some purpose, but in the past it was only eating time for us. Thanks for the feedback sir.🌺

I like how you started with the Mothers in the beginning. Mothers do a lot of hard work that goes unappreciated because it's "normal" to us.

I think you should clarify that "heaven is placed under her feet" is a teaching from the Hadith. You wrote it as if you're assuming the reader only knows this.

I like the part where you talked about your childhood. I think it's understandable your mother won't cook new food for you before the Iftar, even if a child couldn't understand at the time. My mother also didn't cook for us as children, but we also tried to fast a day or two of the month as soon as we got old enough to handle that. It was always "How long can you last before asking Mom for food, challenge." Good times~

"It's not easy to protect your fast while in the past it was auto protected."

True words. To me, the hardest part isn't even the hunger or the thirst. It's keeping me from doing Sins being spiritually minded. I pray Allah makes it easy for me and you.

I admit as I must have the exact reference of Islamic quotes, thanks for the correction.

Childhood hmm in our culture the kids are said to have sparrow fast ( due to being small in size probably because of their belly size hehe ) and I never had this haha I felt I must have panda fast as I was chubby in childhood🤧🥺😂 !LOL

seems like a nice challenge to practice fasting.
And to be honest it's hard to cut off the toxic traits we have all year during this month, as only this month is a blessing to request for forgiveness from everything. Glad to see your presence. May Allah bless us all 🤍

only I was there to taste the spice and sugar level of food.

Reading this I was remembering my childhood times also. I also used to check the sugar level of juice and most of time I answered everything was okay although I wasn't sure my opinion was right or wrong.

Which time the responsibility us increase automatically and we have grown up already and we have a lot of thing to do because of our responsibility.

Ramdan come to us with blessings and we should try our best to make the best use of the precious time .

Hahaha you know Intishar now kids don't give opinions , their taste buds are not modified for desi foods so I don't ask for their statement either haha. Still our duties are less imagine when we have to enter that practical life when we will be discussing inflation, earnings and savings topics arghh. It's good to enjoy the current phase , 💕 have a Blessed day 💕

Wow, it was really a great post thanks for sharing your personal experiences here. These we are having navratri, many to take 9 days straight fast (vrat) some don't even eat food only eat fruits at night only. I some do take fast (vrat) but keep eating the entire day. We do have a particular day to worship God and godess. I do admire those who do manage to do at that with all the rituals.

Once in a week or atleast once in a month we should take fast that did helps a lot. You are taking that for 30 day straight that is kind of hard.

To be honest mere se ye sab nahi hota. When I do then i don't eat literally nothing.
Thanks great post 😊🙏🔥🎉

I suppose each religion has continued the chain of fasting to open up the gates of spirituality. Nice to hear about the multi- cultural stuff. It's not hard as after a few days body metabolism is atomically settled for fasting. And to be honest Eid waly din v lagta kuch nhi khana aj to roza hy, !LOL I appreciate your presence sir 💕🌺

Ha haa samajh sakta hu apka dar 😅,good day.

Lol sir ok mam 🤗🙏🎉🔥

Wow! This was a great post to read. So much contrast between your life during Ramadan as a kid and now.

I didn't know about itikaf, I love the idea behind this... Btw, how common is this practice? I am intrigued.

 last year  

I started the post to share the memories and ended up on spirituality, well it's the time period where you have to remain cut from the social life, offering prayers and reciting the Quran just to obtain the insights of Allah and religion. It's done for the purpose of forgiveness and attainment of blessing. Will be sharing more memories of Eid soon. Thanks for showing up dude ❤️

Sounds like a rigorous meditation and a way to get closer to the Almighty. Thanks for sharing. I will look forward to your posts. ❤️
