RaMaDaN
Ramadans supposed to start tomorrow (friday) inshaAllah.. except somehow here in the US its messed up and they are saying either Friday or Saturday, so Allahu 'aalam. InshaAllah Friday. I can't wait really. Ramadans just so different and special. So many memories from it.. Last Ramadan was pretty nice alhamdulilah so were all the ones when Amu Yassir was here and stuff. I love Ramadan here.. lol its awesome..
First day of Ramadan biggggg iftar at the masjid, everyones there and all hyped and stuff. Then iftar every Friday and some other days. The men get it everyday though lol.. we gotts to do the cooking, but alhamdulilah I dont mind. Watching Taraweeh from the Haram everyday, and then qiyaam later on. Getting together and making ka'ik and and ma'mool lol. Prayin taraweeh at home as well is awesome.. and ya a buncha other stuff..
Last Ramadan had some awesome memories.. Mama and Baba being away and ME being in charge lol. Dania spending the night that one day, and ordering pizza at like 1am. Then makin her and my sister pray taraweeh while I sat online (hey I had 'uthur shar'ee). Pulling all nighters almost daily so I could help Tassnym with her shiekspear hw.. Meeting two of the most awesome people I will ever meet, people that I have learned so much from and that mean the world to me and that I will never forget. These two have been like the rocks in my life, the things that always pushing me to be better and there to support me.. lost them both now :( ya Allah.. one I didnt loose totally, the other Allahu 'aalam.. it hurts but ya.. back to memories.. Yusif leading taraweeh for the first time and then when he finishes his grandma going *syrian accent* "MashaAllah kateer helw sowt al shaykh, Allah ya baarik feeh" (MashaAllah the shaykhs voice is really nice, Allah ya Baarik feeh) then she goes "who is he." lol khala Ghada turned to her and was laughing and goes "mama that was yusif".
ahhh Allahu 'aalam how good this Ramadans gonna be.. I'm moving second week of it or something :( to a muslimless city.. closest masjid like 45 mins or something. dars last friday was about Ramadan.. and like I got all teary lol khala Hanan noticed and was like comee on its not that bad.. I was like yea it is.. I hope khala Ghada gets back before I leave.. I miss her so much.. lol.. and I wanna pray taraweeh behind yusif again :/. actually coming to think of it I dunnu whos gonna lead this year. Yusifs away, and Amu Mustafa (Aboodis dad) is so so so busy and hes like sick now too.. and Amu Awad dont lead taraweeh.. I'm thinking Mohammad ibn Awad might couse he's hafidh now mashaAllah.. and when Yusif comes back then he too.. Allahu 'aalam..
You know even though I'm in this mindset that this Ramadans gonna suck couse of the move and being away from corvallis and all maybe I'm wrong. Maybe this is going to give me a chance to focus on other aspects of Ramadan more than these secondary ones. Like it'll give me more time for 'ibaadah and stuff since I will have NOTHING to distract me. No computer/internet, no friends, no going to the masjid, no one coming over, no big meals to cook etc. wa 'asa en takrahu shay'an wa howa khayrun lakum... so ya we'll see inshaAllah..
