Intentions - DOn't make them wrong
Ramadan the Flowering bud - I intend to Fall in Love with Faith
We all intend to live, but how we intend to live is another story
An intention is an inner strength to do something – that you might have found difficult or you might have thought wrong of in another time – It can be weak – or it can be very powerful and so demand of you greatly but then reward you greatly – intentions can be good or bad – can be worthy or foolish – can be lost and forgotten or can be remembered and taken into high account – it is important to remember how an intention can be taken – for sometimes you intend... and it is placed for you or against you – (ina ala3mal bel niyat) -
Ramadan is a time to create intentions - it is a time that helps you mend and send all your makings to God to ask him to help you – for in Ramadan peoples intentions become open and easy to understand – for yourself – it is easy to see what your real intentions are - we give up big parts of life and pause them – to intend to begin a new life, using the month as a challenge to try harder – to begin new things, to become a new person healed and forgiven
It is hard to begin thinking and carrying out your intentions – it is hard to think out what intentions you want – it is hard to continue them through the month, never mind after -
But it is harder to live a life without a dedicated intention - that would be a useless life - a wasted one -
I urge you to think about your intentions , to make them come alive and to use this month to fulfil them - in order to live a clean and healthy faithful and beautiful life

5 things - Pre Ramadan
Health - God provided ramadan in order for us to be healthy - to live life longer and better - controlling hunger and eating is powerful ability that is given to us in Ramadan
Faith - Praying, Remembering God, Reading Quran, and simply cleaning your soul and mind is the most important part of Ramadan - fulfilling fasting involves fulfilling your faith
Pleasure - simply drinking a glass of water should be carried out with pleasure - talking to your family - praying asking god - the days of Ramadan are limited and they are there to make you enjoy life - and to have pleasure that you are in control of your life and are strong
Relationships - this is a time to remember family friends and help people - you heal the relationship with God with yourself with everything - you can also stop bad relationships with wasting time with the net with anything bad - stop bad relationships, start good relationships
Control - Ramadan is the key to control - everything about it is control- you control your body, your sleep, your prayers, your behaviour - your month - you control this month -
these are the 5 ways to acheive something, everything in your life to fall in love ...with life once more
I've never given you roses_ Pre Ramadan
As you got up this morning, I watched you, and hoped you would talk to me, even if it was just a few words, asking my opinion or thanking me for something good that happened in your life yesterday. But I noticed you were too busy, trying to find the right outfit to wear. When you ran around the house getting ready, I knew there would be a few minutes for you to stop and say hello, but you were too busy. At one point you had to wait, fifteen minutes with nothing to do except sit in a chair. Then I saw you spring to your feet. I thought you wanted to talk to me, but you ran to the phone and called a friend to get the latest gossip instead. I watched patiently all day long. With all your activities I guess you were too busy to say anything to me.
I noticed that before lunch you looked around, may be you felt embarrassed to talk to me, that is why you didn't bow your head. You glanced three or four tables over and you noticed some of your friends talking to me briefly before they ate, but you didn't. That's okay. There is still more time left, and I hope that you will talk to me yet. You went home and it seems as if you had lots of things to do. After a few of them were done, you turned on the TV. I don't know if you like TV or not, just about anything goes there and you spend lot of time each day in front of it not thinking about anything, just enjoying the show. I waited patiently again as you watched the TV and ate your meal, but again you didn't talk to me.
Bedtime I guess you felt too tired. After you said good night to your family you popped into bed and fell asleep in no time. That's okay because you may not realize that I am always there for you. I've got patience, more than you will ever know. I even want to teach you how to be patient with others as well.
I love you so much that I wait everyday for a nod, prayer or thought or a thankful part of your heart. It is hard to have a one-sided conversation. Well, you are getting up once again. And once again I will wait, with nothing but love for you. Hoping that today you will give me some time. Have a nice day!
Your friend, ALLAH
