1st of August marks the first day of fasting month for those in Melbourne, UK and other places who recognize this day as the start of the blessed month of Ramadhan. We will start tomorrow in Brunei. Nevertheless, it does not make us complacent about the benefits of fasting and following the Dos and Don'ts of the month that has been long awaited.

I feel so honoured and lucky to be given another breath of life by the Creator, that I have been given another chance to see this Ramadhan, that I will be able to show my love for Him.

Last Ramadhan was when I decided to wear the hijab full-time. Alhamdulillah, this Ramadhan around, that devotion to Allah, that promise to slowly become a better Muslimah, has not faltered and I have fulfilled this one promise that was once so hard to do. Alhamdulillah, this is one of the signs that shows that Allah has not forgotten me and that he has led me to the straight path.

I can only hope that this Ramadhan brings me a lot more of Allah's hidayah and I hope that I will learn more about Islam and how blessed I am to be a muslim. InsyAllah.

I have a lot of stories to share with everyone but first, I'll need to decide whether I'd like to change venues or stay here. This URL has been around for far too long. I think it's time to start anew, no?
