Ramadhan 2008 Mubarak

Ramadhan Mubarak to all. May we use this month for reflection on our actions, our behaviour, our lifestyles, our choices, our goals, our aspirations and the meaning of life itself.

Laylat Al Qadr, the most important prayer of the fasting month, is the night Muslims commemorate the revelation of the first verses of the Quran to their prophet Mohammed through the angel Gabriel.

May this be a month in which we look down deeply and assess ourselves; our shortcomings, our mistakes and our weaknesses. May we use this month to build ourselves into powerful Islamic Personalities that think and live according to what Allah has ordained for us.

May this be the Ramadhan in which we gain the closesness to Allah (swt) and secure our ultimate destination- Al Jannah-al firdaws. And what an achievement that would be. Only if we knew.
