4th day of Ramadan

We finished late last night and had to send Damia and Nabil home after buying them ice creams for being good kids.My God, they were so good! Nabil goes to a private integrated school and at Maghrib, done secara berjemaah, he was asked to azan (random call).Tengok2 sedap pulak budak umur 9 tahun ni azan! We were all impressed.Then after solat, he was asked to baca doa.MasyaAllah...fluent like an Arab tongue.He's done us proud.He jumped at the offer of following us to do qiyam Ramadan (proper name for teraweh zaman Rasulullah s.a.w dahulu).Damia wanted to come along.

Ustaz malam ini panjanglah pulak tazkirahnya.Intipati tazkirah is ibadah ini yg penting bukan quantity but quality.Nabi dulu hidup mcm orang biasa. Kalau buat qiyamulail, dia buat dua rakaat sahaja.Qiyamulail amat penting...ia menguatkan diri kita.Ibadah2 kita menguatkan kita semua selain menjadikan kita semua bertaqwa.That is why para mujahidin kita antara amalan mereka ialah bangun tengah malam to do qiyamulail.

Ustaz malam ini is an economics graduate.He and team had built byk rumah for fakir miskin di Selama Perak and is building a tahfiz school there.He said last year, half of the kutipan derma for his tahfiz and development for the poor came from our surau.Investment akhirat from those who care.I'll give you the link and info if you too wanna invest in your akhirat.

Ustaz kata bulan Ramadan ni nak menjinakkan nafsu kita so that roh kita gemok supaya mudah kita beribadat. If we continue to makan byk more than bulan2 biasa yg lain, we'd never tame our nafs.Makanan roh kita tetap sedikit sebab nafsu kita took up the space.Nak ibadah pun malas.And since we need memperbanyakkan amalan2 sunat, maka kita kenalah disiplinkan diri not to over-eat.
