Susah sangat ke?


I remembered when I was 7, my dad asked me whether I could start fasting. He said that since I have entered school, I am a big girl now therefore I need to fast. He even promised that he will give me RM3 for every day that I managed to fast from dawn till dusk. Of course as a 7 year old, its very difficult to me to fast full day. There are too many challenges to face especially the van roti..nyum nyum!

Fast forward 19 years later, I am a 26 years old woman. Every year I look forward for bulan Ramadhan. Its the only time where I can really focus on my family (due to working commitment its difficult to do it on other months) and for some reason Ramadhan has a different aura than any other month.

For me fasting from dawn till dusk is not a big deal for a 26 year old. There are so many people in the world that have to starve to death on a daily basis and having to go without food and water for few hours in a month is no where near to that horrific situation. And for that reason, I have failed to understand when I saw another Muslim adult with a fit physic did not fast during the month of Ramadhan. I am not that religious and far from being perfect, but if doing such ibadah is too difficult too you. Then too bad brother and sister, you have lost my respect.

I am not here to preach and I don't think I'm good enough to tell people what to do. But when you give me petty reason for not fasting, you just making a fool of yourself and not to forget that actually you are telling the whole world how selfish you are.

I am sorry that I failed to understand you. You are so scared of eating in a restaurant with no halal logo but you are not afraid to eat in front of your Muslim colleague during the day. You are the first people who always quote any Quranic verses when you speak but you failed to respect your Muslim friends when they advise you to start fasting. I just don't get it. At the age of 30, susah sangat ke nak puasa?

I don't get it either..:3

P/S: Tak faham kenapa ada orang lebih takut makan babi dari takut balasan Allah sebab tak puasa.
