Reality and obligation in Ramadhan

During this Ramadhan do not let the sweetness of our deeds vansh into the night, leaving only emptiness. When one contemplates the texts on fasting, its wisdom and goals in Shariah, and looks at the reality of the Muslim communities, one realizes a wide gap between the reality and our obligations. Remember that Ramadhan is a bounty that Allah blessed His servants with, to strengthen their faith, and increase their piety (Taqwa). Allah said: "O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may become pious." (Al-Baqarah 2:183). This article is an attempt to present the essential causes of this gap, and to some remedies. primary reason for the gap is ignorance about the goals of fasting and the wisdom behind it. Many Muslims ignore the purpose and wisdom of fasting. Fasting is done merely to conform to the social environmet without contemplation. If one is not aware of the divine wisdom of Shariah and its fruits in this world and in the hereafter, one will not apply it in the right way.

Goals of fasting

• achieving taqwa
• strengthning willpower and acquiring patience
• fasting is pure worship

Clever monkey

BACHOK: "Hitam", a two-year-old short-tailed macaque picks things up easily, literally. Besides being trained to pluck coconuts, the cute little monkey owned by a Bachok District Council (MDB) employee has been taught to pick up litter and put them in a waste basket.

Its owner, Zulkifl Mamati, 42, said: "Hitam is a clever monkey and I taught it to pick up litter just to make it different from other monkeys."The monkey had actually been entered for the "clever monkey" category in a competition but it was cancelled as Hitam was the only entry.
