Hey Peoples,
No I’m not excited because of Friday (it’s not even Friday lol.) I’m excited for Ramadan!! So on today’s post I decided to talk about Ramadan and my Ramadan resolutions before it begins. Here is a short and quick definition for Ramadan for those who don’t know what I’m talking about, Ramadan is a month in the Islamic lunar calendar. During this month, Muslims fast everyday from dawn to sunset.
My Ramadan Resolutions! (inshallah I accomplish them)
1. Pray 5 times a day on time!!!
2. Read the entire Quran. [I tried to do this last year but I couldn’t complete the entire Quran by the end of Ramadan. =/]
3. No watching TV, or movies. [This one will be hard I like to watch food network when I’m fasting for some reason it doesn’t make me hungry and it makes the time go by fast!]
4. No gossiping [I’m not a gossiper but I do sometimes talk or say something I shouldn’t so I want to try to totally refrain from thisJ]
That’s all the things I can think of. Do any of you have resolutions you want to accomplish?
Thinking about Ramadan also reminds me of some pet peeves I have associated with this time of the year. Here are some:
· People telling me I probably will die without food.
· People asking if I want food even though they know I’m fasting.
· People making a big deal about how I can’t eat.
· People coming to Lailatul Qadr prayers all dressed up like its some fashion show. Seriously you are there to pray not to show people your fancy shalwars, sarees, lehangas, and abayas.
· Ladies who come to the masjid even though they can’t pray and they sit in the back and gossip.

But, there are definitely more great things about Ramadan that make these pet peeves seem pointless.
That’s all for today!!!
