AL-H-A-M-D-U-L-I-LL-A-H!

Glory be to Almighty Allah who has once again shown us His mercy by granting us leave to witness yet another Ramadan in our lifespan. Many were those who wish they had just this one opportunity, but today have been sent on a lifetime journey of no return. Many were those that we boarded this Fasting train together, but have no chance to reach the closing destination with us. I pray that May Allah forgive their sins, overlook their shortcomings and grant them Paradise. But for those of us who still have the merciful privilege to be here today, Let us be grateful to God and always remember to do HIS bidding...For today and tomorrow, this would forever remain in our memory and the memory of a beautiful life to come. So, I congratulate you all and urge you to please let us...

Arise’n’rejoice! For this Season: the worth of another celebration

Rejoice! Like an apprentice on the day of graduation

Alas! You’re back, with so much, so great a vigor

Where you’ve spent a full moon in celestial labor.

Congratulations! Ei’d-Ul-Fitri has already begun

And the Blessed Month, Ramadan already’s gone

Where you had all your desires strained’n’swallow’

But take heed these portents along, my noblest fellow.

Though, Ramadan, the Blessed Month now is gone

Yet, must you divorce not its teachings undone

In humbleness, piety, kindness, charity’n’patience should thy be victorious

For you to be in this life’n’hereafter prosperous.

Arise! Celebrate this Glorious Festival!

Rejoice! This Ei’d-Ul-Fitri with gracious thanks to Allah

Who’s upon your soul bestowed ceaseless survival

Rejoice! Shout’n’echoe AL-H-A-M-D-U-L-I-LL-A-H!
