In 3 months, in 1 month, 1 week, 1 day
Countdown ends, it starts today
It’s been a day, a week, last ten days
And in the blink of an eye the last day
Doesn’t it seem like it lasted one week or one day?
The bittersweet feeling as it says bye
Almost want to say stay, how quick you went by
As tears roll down the cheeks of mu’mineen
Yet there are wide smiles on faces of shakireen
You’re missed already but what a blessing to have experienced you
A dream for many, yet not for everyone it came true
And who knows next year it might not come true for us too
The month in which the Quran was revealed
But is it the only month it should be read, preached and lived?
And fasting was prescribed for taqwa (piety) to be attained
So is this taqwa meant to be maintained?
Is it to be lost or kept all year round?
Or it’s a once in a year thing, till next year comes around?
When this blessed month ends and the moon of the next rises
Does every good deed fall while every bad one arises?
One of the things that show Allah’s acceptance
Is the acts of worship being in persistence
We always hear this question: ibadurRahman or ibaddurramadan?
Slaves of ar-Rahman or slaves of ramadan?
He didn’t create us except to worship Him
That’s the purpose of our entire lives not just a part of it
