End of Ramadhan

The end of Ramadhan is coming very soon and we'll be busy Rayaing. For the first time ever, i'm actually feeling sad. Honestly before this, when people used to tell me they wished Ramadhan wouldn't end, i could understand what they meant but my feelings never mirrored theirs. But this year, Ramadhan has been exceptionally good and rewarding for me. Alhamdullilah.

On another note about Ramadhan, i was happy that Prof. Hatta decided to talk a bit about terawikh during Grand Reflection. He talked about how the Prophet P.B.U.H demanded that we pray terawih but that it wasn't a must to pray it secara berjemaah. Terawih itself was supposed to be done in a relaxing manner and following your own speed. Anyway, why was i so happy he said that? Well, during early Ramdhan i prayed terawih in the college. But when it came to the last ten nights i preferred to pray at home cause i'd pray terawih after 12am and break into a few sessions where i'd do half and then sleep and then wake up just before sahur to continue.

When i told some of my friends who asked why i stopped coming to college for terawih about this, some of them questioned my ways. Now i know most of them meant well, but i so hate people who assume you're not doing something or you're doing it wrong just because they can't see you doing it or because you don't do it with them. Like if i don't join the Qiyamullail doesn't mean that while you guys are praying and all that at 4am i'm having a party or dozing off.

Okay, i've gone a bit off tangent. Anyways, I hope you guys have had a Ramadhan as full filing as mine and just in case i don't post anything in the next few days - Eid Mubarak!
