In this month, all vanities are shed and the cloak of salvation is donned
In this month, we repent of our sins and pray for eternal salvation
In this month, we try to steer clear of anything that soils the angelic halo hovering over our heads.(sin)
In this month it is believed that the doors of heaven are open
and that of hell is closed and hence blessings rain down on all and sundry.
This month is the equivalent of the christian lent which ends with easter,
the end of this month is when grains are measured and giving out to the needy in Allah's name and the celebration that follows is called EID EL-FITR.
In this month, we reinforce our faith and belief in Allah and his teachings.
In this month, we be our brother's keepers, feed the hungry, cloth the naked and give the needy.
in this month, we pray, fast and be holy in hopes that we are blessed by Allah and forgiven of all our trespasses.
In the spirit of ramadan, I say RAMADAN KAREEM.

thinking of giving blogville a rest during ramadan but it is so adictive.
just wanting to know whats up with other pples lives so sad

@ miss pumping.. yeah i agree it is addictive.. my fast starts at four-ish and ends 7:15 or so.. its not so bad.. but it wud get better cos summer is fast leaving.. ramadan kareem to u!
funny i di never occured to me that you are a muslim. Keep the faith sista
May Allah accept our fast as an act of Ibadah.......
Ramadan Kareem
@ ty realli.. hmm i guess it wudnt occur to most people..
@ ibiluv.. amin!
Sorry im not a moslem but i noticed that people here say Ramadam Mubarak and in 9ja is Ramadan Karim, guess they mean the same thing?
@sprezatura.. u can use them interchangeably, they both mean have a blessed ramadan. ramadan being the 9th month in the islamic calender which the fast is observed and kareem meaning beneficient or generous while mubarak means blessed.. so it cud be translated to mean have a beneficient ramadan or have a blessed ramadan... thanx for stopping by...
Ramadan mubarak sister zara...
