My Chennai Express

Chennai is a lovely city. I had so much fun although i was there for a very short trip.

The gift of Ramadhan and Syawal

Entering the third week of Syawal, I am still occupied with open houses and invitations. There was never a dull weekend for quite a while. 

I had friends over at my house one weekend, and another weekend allocated for my colleagues. Yesterday, my family flew all the way from Alor Setar to get together again.  

As I was driving back home from a nice open house session earlier today, I felt blessed to have had the opportunity to spend quality time with people I cared for the past few weeks. 

Ramadhan gave us the opportunity to be closer to Him. At the same time, it also gave us the opportunity to reconnect with the community we live in. After Iftar sessions we got to see people at mosques for Tarawikh. During Eid, we see relatives that we usually see once a year. 

Personally, I just feel like these two months are truly a gift from Allah. It is up to us if we want to make full use of it, before we all go back to be busy and never have the opportunity to spend quality time with family and friends. 

Alhamdulillah.
