Farewell Ramadan :(
Fadfadation - Thu, 2007-10-11 20:01 By Fadfadation
As always, Ramadan month just whizzed away :(
It is amazing how those 30 days just tend to fly!
It is as if Ramadan is telling us:"Catch me if you can!"
Note: with all due respect to Ginger Bread Man from the Ladybird stories...although it was "You can't catch me! You can't catch me!".
Yesterday, after praying the late night prayers in the Masjid (Mosque) i just rested my back against the side wall of the Masjid within the praying area and sat there for like 10 minutes.

A Band In The Mosque!
Fadfadation - Mon, 2007-10-01 08:15 By Fadfadation
This happened last night in the Mosque (Masjid) I pray Taraweh in (in Qatar).
Note: The following is in terms of "the meaning of" not literally said or done.
Between the Taraweh prayers (11 in total), the Imam (Islamic cleric leading prayer) stops for a 10-15 minute lesson. Yesterday, the lesson was very different...
As we finished praying, the Imam went up to the Mic and said that we have a guy with us in the Masjid that is from a charity organization and that he wants to make a few announcements.
The guy went up to the Mic and made a few announcements of the achievements done with all the money collected over the past 3 years and so on.
After that the shock happened…

Israelites And Prophets
Fadfadation - Sun, 2007-09-30 07:36 By Fadfadation
"
One might wonder why God sent to the Israelites specifically so many Prophets (some sources say 70 prophets over the history of mankind).
One might ask, why not just send them one prophet and they follow him and that's it?! they were the chosen ones, so why so many?
Think of it this way...
When you have a body that is ill, you call a doctor to cure it. When the body is full of all sorts of illnesses, you need a lot of doctors!

On The First Day Of Ramadan
Fadfadation - Thu, 2007-09-27 06:43 By Fadfadation
This happened on the First day of Ramadan.
As I was driving our cleaning guy to the bus station, this conversation took place:
Note: his name is R. and he is a Protestant Christian from India.
R.: "Sir, the weather today is much better".
I: "Yes R., it dropped 7 degrees just today".
R.: "Sir when do you start fasting for Ramadan? When is Ramadan?".
I: "Today R., today is the first day".
R.: "Ohhhh God is Great Sir!!".
I: "What do you mean R.?". read more »

The Heart and The Tongue
Fadfadation - Thu, 2007-09-20 06:39 By Fadfadation
From the Radio:
"
One might come to me and say:" This guy may be vulgar and rude, but he is kind in his heart!".
I'd answer that and say:"No, that is incorrect. You need to reconsider such a judgement".
There might be some goodness in him, but never say his heart is kind... full stop!
