fasting

Post-Ramadan letdown is real. That feeling of excitement during the blessed month keeps us motivated to fast despite all kinds of hardship. It also greatly lifts our spirits and faith. This year, try to carry over the happiness of Ramadan through to next year. Here are some ways how.

While Ramadan is a special time, there are ways to incorporate the blessings of fasting on regular basis. While one can fast any time of the year, there are days specifically mentioned that carry more reward should one partake in fasting. 

Over one billion people worldwide live on $1 a day. And that includes everything not just food. Those of us blessed to enjoy a table full of a variety of foods when we break our fasts perhaps don’t consider this.

Just like we make preparations well in advance when a favorite guest is coming, we, as mothers, have to prepare in advance for Ramadan, so that we don’t waste time during the precious month.

Fasting is a special act of worship which is only between humans and God since no one else knows for sure if this person is actually fasting. It has both spiritual and medical benfits.

If you feel your boss or supervisor is someone who will understand your situation, consider sending this sample letter to them before Ramadan begins.
