~RAMADHAN : day 23~

ASSALAMUALAIKUM.... SALAM RAMADHAN...

Ramadhan Day 23: Do taubah! Set a "date" with Allah - he is available 24/7! :)

So dear Muslim ladies and gents, when was the last time you had a private, one-one moment with Allah? Set a "date" with The Almighty, for He is available 24/7, all year round!

The most important one-on-one session is to seek repentance (taubah) from Him. We're bound to commit many sins for we are just mere humans, and there's nobody else that can forgive your sins other than Him, for He is Merciful.

"And seek forgiveness of Allah. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." (73:20)

To seek repentance is easy. You don't need to do bungee jumping or sacrifice a fluffy animal. All you need to do is these simple steps:

1. Be completely HONEST and SINCERE
2. Realise your sins and regret doing so
3. VOW and make a promise to God and to yourself that you'll never repeat the same sins. Be strong with this!
4. Continuously do good

Not only Allah will forgive and wipe away your sins, in addition, he will TURN all the sins you've done to deeds! Masyallah!

To end this, I'd like to share this really wonderful Hadith by Bukhari with all of you. Let's continuously do taubah so that we'll be better Muslims, insyallah.

"The master of invocations for forgiveness is that the servant says:

O' my Allah! You are my Lord, there is no 'Allah but You. You created me, and I am your bondservant, and I will stick to my covenant and promise [of faith and sincere obedience] to You, as to my ability. I seek refuge in You from the evil of what I have done, I acknowledge, to You, your bounties upon me, and I acknowledge, to You, my sin. Thus forgive me, for none forgives sins except You.

Whoever says this as he enters upon evening, then, dies that night, he would enter Paradise; and if one says this as he enters upon morning, then, dies that day, he would enter Paradise."
