The Hunger Games!


I got this from SaudiLife.com's facebook page :-)

My Goals for Ramadan this year!

My goals for Ramadan this year, inshaAllah! Sharing them here as they might give others ideas to do the same I haven't had a Ramadan which I'd call very spiritual in the past two or three years, because of my surroundings and because well, I was lazy. InshaAllah this year I will try to be different

1) Read 1/30th of the Quran in Arabic every day and thus finish it in one month inshaAllah!

2) Read the same 1/30th of the Quran with easy translation in English and thus finish the translation of the Quran in one month too inshaAllah. Reading Quran with translation is something I have never been able to do with consistence (never finished it either) and I guess part of it is because I was focusing on the heavy-duty translation + explanations of the Quran. Step by step this time inshaAllah!

3) Go for Tarawih more than any Ramadan before.

4) Lose some much-hated fat by eating less at both Suhur and Iftar (especially Iftar!)

5) Try to exercise and be active instead of being a lazy ass while fasting!

InshaAllah!

Ramadan is here!! :D

Ramadan Kareem to Muslims and non-Muslims alike!

Alhamdulillah I have been lucky enough to get a few days of Ramadan at home and in Saudi Arabia after 3 years! Alhamdulillah, I look forward to making the best of my time here and in Ramadan as a whole ameen!

May this Ramadan be a means of turning back to Allah & may He enable us to take maximum benefit from these blessed days. May we earn His blessings, seek his forgiveness and freedom from hell fire. Ameen!


First day of fasting starts in just three hours :D :D
