Third Day of Ramadan - The Real Meaning of Puasa
A reminder to all of us who are observing the fasting month and those who doesn't, something for me to share with you. ^^
It's from Wardina's FB page and I whole heartedly agree.
It's Friday folks!
Weekends is almost here.
I'm planning to either do a longish run tonight or really early tomorrow morning. Can't go to Putrajaya, what with the car being "sick" so I'll just settle with running in loops for 2-3 hours around my carpark. No use whining. Just do! ^^

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!
ReplyDeleteYes!!! No need to whine, just do it!!! =]
;-)
DeleteI really salute those of you who can fast without fail. As for me, I don't think I can fast as I get hungry very fast.
ReplyDeleteI think, when it comes to doing what we believe especially when it comes to religious matters, it different from doing it say... For fun.
DeleteOur belief is a wonderful thing. :-)
Yeap is Friday. Wish you and your family have a great weekend too.
ReplyDeleteThere are many non Muslim have no idea why Muslim are fasting.
ReplyDeleteI think I must shared this with them.
DeletePlease share them. :-)
DeleteBeing a Muslim, there are 5 rules right?
ReplyDeletepay zakat, go Mekah (if affordable), pray 5 times a day, must fasting and another is belief in Allah.
So for women how you usually plan for "ganti puasa"?
DeleteNo plan. Just do it. :-D
DeleteBy the way, the "rules" you mentioned : it's known as "Five Pillars of Islam" and is five formal acts of worship which help strengthen a Muslim's faith and obedience.
DeleteThere is also "Articles of Faith"; which is the basic beliefs of Muslims.
yeah, i always think alike too.. ramadhan is more about controlling your desire and a way to actually cleanse your body as well as soul..
ReplyDeletebut somehow to most of the people out there that are not quite sensitive about the true meaning of fasting - it all turns into buka puasa feasts.. how pathetic..
DeleteVery correct SK. Its a time to cleanse the body physically & spiritually.
Deletemust not talk nonsense so much now too. :-D
i am sure you had your own way to achieve the true meaning of this holy month.. as i see you never feast and eat a lot, but rather simple iftar and suhur just for the sake of not feeling hungry, instead of many who tends to over eat..
Deleteyou've read my jibe at FB about the feasting, right?
DeleteOh yeah, I must not jibe or give snide remarks now. ;-)
ngek ngek, and i was right, your car is "sick" in its "hospital" and you won't be able to go far to run.. better lah, looping around the carpark and let your neighbours see this Mak Glam mah~~ :p
DeleteRamadhan Kareem!! no jibe this month, but rather turn your jibe into sharing with kind intention.. muahahahaha!! :D
Deletewoo! Jibe me ah?
DeleteLol
Yes, yes... This is the month perfect for sharing. Sharing is caring. ;-)
eih, where got jibe you?? i always sayang Mak Glam wat~~ maaf zahir batin right?? hehehe.. :p
DeleteHehehe
DeleteFeels like Raya pulak SK wishing me mass zahir batin ;-)
wakakaka...now we can jibe mak glam but she cant jibe back...:p *evil grinz*
DeleteNah joking ler....
Tarik ini kucing punya ekor. :-D
DeleteThis is a good read. Now I understand better and know how to remind my staff here who are fasting but smoking pula! You know lah those younger despatch boys.
ReplyDeletecannot smoke la Anay! Pizza batal! O.O
Deletepizza batal? woi mek! dreaming of pizza ke or phone auto correct?
DeleteMy head was also reeling back and forth about this new word pizza batal. I even googled and the nearest word was Pizzeria Al batal. Wakakakakaka
Deleteaiyah! Auto correct la....
DeleteLol
Puasa. Puasa batal if smoke. :-P
betul tu....same like others religions eg christmas...now commercialised already and forgotten the real meaning of christmas
ReplyDeleteSo true meow. Once I heard a pastor telling people that Christmas is a holy day and not to get too merry and drunk with hangovers. This woke me up because I grew up with such thoughts when I was younger.
Deletenow Xmas is more of a retailers party pulak. Very over commercialised. Those not observing Christianity also sebok sebok celebrate.
DeleteI have many good Malay neighbours who often moved me with their kindness to buy supper often to treat those foreign guards who had to work overnight at the pondok.
ReplyDeleteyou tarak buy ka? me on and off got buy also la for the guards....
DeleteOf course Anay got lah. Anay just gave them a huge box of food 2 nights ago. I should not blow trumpet here lah. Shy only.
DeleteSudah blow already now!
DeleteLOL
Always admire Muslims who can fast for the whole month. Ask me to fast overnight to go for blood test the next day,already half dead. Quickly would go to eat right after the test.
ReplyDeleteits because of our belief. Strong belief makes it easier. :-)
DeleteWakkakakakaka This Suituapui is damn honest!!!! I like!
DeleteBetter honest than a hypocrite right? :-)
DeleteGood to share about this! SO all this buka puasa buffet dinners by hotels are not right?
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think?
DeleteSO you can choose not to fast too? But why when you don't fast, some Muslims will look at you like one kind?
ReplyDeleteIt's not about people looking at you one kind. If you choose not to do it, you choose to sin.
DeleteAnyway, you really need to understand more, if you are interested. Please delve into what is written a bit deeper.
DeleteYou can choose not to do an ibadah, But the syariah law will not allow you to openly mock the religion. And if one is a believer, then one shouldn't.
WHY WOULD A MUSLIM CHOOSE NOT TO FAST AND DO IT OPENLY ANYWAY? They have no shame at all?
Happy fasting! : )
ReplyDeleteThis was very interesting. I sometimes got the impression (in Egypt) that this month of fasting was not about fasting at all. Many Egyptian colleagues actually GAINED weight during Ramadan.
ReplyDeleteSame here.
DeleteThe way we eat at iftar sometimes is actually more than we used to eat for a whole day in other month! @.@
