Wonderful Wednesday with My Purple World, Oh My Heartsie Girls and Friends

I sincerely hope everyone is safe, happy and healthy wherever one is!

Welcome back and here we go on another edition of Wonderful Wednesday with me in My Purple World, Oh My Heartsie Girls and Friends. 

Cheers from Bali ..

Wonderful Ramadhan is still with us and I spent most of my time with my family. Well, as much as I could. I do go back to traveling again but only for short period of time and domestically. Full observance to the health protocol, traveling during Ramadhan can be a bit tricky sometimes. But so far it has been smooth and alhamdulillah  I managed to travel to Bali in 5 days. Before and after, we always have to do the test, usually antigen swab, to ensure we are free from COVID-19 even though I have travelled and met other. With that assurance, I feel safe of returning to my family again.

I am happy that my kids, Bo et Obi, as well as my niece who lives with us now, observing their fasting month faithfully. The good thing about celebrating Ramadhan in Indonesia is that the fasting hour is moderate, around 13,5 hours, and most of us are fasting as well. It really helps, especially for my kids who are still learning about Ramadhan. I remember when we had to observe Ramadhan in New York City and in Geneva. It was summer and the fasting hours were long. But then again, alhamdulillah, all went well. Again, we don't force them but gradually teach and observe the holy month together. 

I was actually scheduled to fly to Makassar and Toraja for coordinating meetings but since the numbers of COVID-19 cases in Jakarta and the surrounding cities are rising again. Well, probably it's the best for all of us, since we never know when the infection took place. Staying safe is the best option for now. 

So, now.. are you ready to join me Wonderful Wednesday with My Purple World, Oh My Heartsie Girls and Friends? Come aboard.

We hope you will enjoy your visit and find something that arouses your interest and don't forget our hostesses have great posts they share as well.

Marhaban yaa Ramadhan - Welcoming Ramadhan 1422H

Marhaban yaa Ramadhan 

Welcoming Ramadhan 1422H, the holy month for us all, moslem sisters and brothers. May Allah SWT, the Almighty God, give us all the strength, perseverance, and reinforced faith to follow His path.

Selamat menjalankan ibadah puasa di bulan suci Ramadhan 1422H kepada seluruh keluarga, teman, dan rekan - rekan yang menjalankannya. 

Tidak terasa Ramadhan kali ini menjadi bulan suci yang kedua di mana kita semua masih berjuang melawan penyebaran virus Corona atau Covid-19. Masih banyak penyesuaian yang harus kita lakukan meskipun banyak di antara kita yang telah mendapatkan vaksin. Karenanya kita semua harus tetap taat dengan 5 M dan menjaga kesehatan selama bulan puasa ini. 

Hanya pada-Mu ya Rabb...

Mungkin ini yang kerap menjadi halangan or tantangan yang lumayan berat  karena kita sangat terbiasa untuk berkumpul, menghabiskan waktu bersama keluarga dan orang - orang tercinta di saat istimewa ini. Mulai dari buka puasa bersama - sama, ngabuburit, tarawih di masjid yang selalu ramai di saat Ramadhan, dan mudik, pulang ke rumah. Pulang ke tempat orang tua, yang tanpa terasa selalu kita rindukan. Pulang untuk sekedar memeluk mereka yang selama ini membuat hati kita hangat. Pulang untuk meminta maaf atas segala khilaf, yang kerap tidak terucap namun khidmat terasa saat mencium tangan orang tua tercinta. 

May Allah SWT give us mercy..

Aaaah, Ramadhan memang selalu membuatku sendu. Inilah indahnya bulan suci ini, karena hati dan jiwa menjadi tenang dan sejuk. Diri menjadi lebih teduh dalam menjalani hari. Karena cinta-Nya terasa teresonansi di dalam jiwa. 

Kita kerap alpa untuk bersyukur dan hanya mampu mengucap kerinduan dan dahaga kita akan cinta-Nya. Tanpa benar - benar melakukan apa yang harus kita lakukan untuk meraih ridho-Nya. Semoga kali ini kita bisa benar - benar jujur pada diri sendiri dan benar - benar berusaha mendapat berkah-Nya yang tak berbatas di bulan penuh rahmat. 

Semoga Allah SWT selalu melimpahkan yang terbaik untuk kita semua. Aaamiiin Ya Rabbal Alamiin.

Wonderful Wednesday with My Purple World, Oh My Heartsie Girls and Friends

Marhaban yaa Ramadhaaan

Hi, everyone.

Wishing you all safe, happy and healthy days ahead. Alhamadulillah,  the holy month of Ramadhan is here. For all my Moslem sisters and brothers, my family wherever you are, wishing you all a wonderful and solemn Ramadhan. May Allah SWT, the Almighty, bestow us with His endless blessings and guidance over the challenging days ahead. 

As you know, Ramadhan is the ninth month in Islamic calendar and Moslems all over the world celebrate the arrival of this super special month. Ramadhan is also the month when Moslems fast from sunrise to sunset, implement self restraint and avoid from eating, drinking, conducting sexual intercourse, and doing bad/sinful things as well as avoiding negative thoughts. 

This is the month where those who faithfully follow the Holy Quran and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad SAW (PBUH) receive multiple rewards for all the good deeds conducted and forgiveness of all the sins. This is also the month when the special gate in paradise, named Ar-Rayyan, dedicated to those who fast.  The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) also once mentioned, as quoted,  “For those who fast, there is a gate in Paradise called Ar-Rayyan, through which no one but they will enter. When the last of them has entered it, it will be closed. Whoever enters through it will drink, and whoever drinks will never thirst again”. This haddist is narrated by Sahi Bin Sad, Sunan an-Nasa’i. Not to mention Laitul Qadar, a very powerful and special night which comes mysteriously in one of the nights in the last ten nights, the last one third, of Ramadhan. This one night is better than a thousand nights, as said in the Holy Quran Surah Al-Qadr 97 : 3.  Those are some of the benefits we can have during Ramadhan and I will be more than happy to share more along the way.

Nevertheless, during this pandemic, things haven't been back to normal and we all still need to do so many adjustments. That includes our fasting month and the celebration of Eid Al-Fitr. This will be the second year where we are strongly requested to restrain ourselves from doing "mudik" or our tradition of going back home to celebrate Eid Al-Fitr, the victory day. Well, although many of us have received the vaccines but that doesn't guarantee that we are immune from the virus. 

We hope you will enjoy your visit and find something that arouses your interest and don't forget our hostesses blogs that they share as well.
