Ramadhan

The month of Ramadhan is not only about abstaining from food and drink during the daytime, it's more than what we think of when we were young. It's a month of mercy where we begin our contemplation and reflection of our deeds and actions. Although its a month where most of us are obsessed with each ritual nevertheless our piety towards the poor, homeless and the needed ones are not completely forgotten. I remembered Mawlana Shaykh Nazim always emphasis on us to be generous and give many sadaqa and Mawlana Shaykh Hisham Kabbani always said give food to the poor. There are groups of people who always think that people who are confined to their rituals ignore the humanitarian actions. Well, let us not be judgmental when there are those who choose to contribute but they hide their identities.
