In many ways obeying Allah and trying to excel in good deeds comes easy in the month of ramadhan. Besides the shayateen are shackled are they not during the blessed month! So the arrival of Eid marks not only their release but usually (May allah forgive the sinner that is me, ameen) marks a marked decline in our own religios observance and adherence. I often wonder why do we become so - are we really just part timers! - Muslims when it suits or Islam for our suit?? Active in Ramadhan but active only in sin and disobedience outside of it - So I echo the words of Brother T and remind myself and my Islamic brethren that let us all remember ISLAM IS FOR LIFE - NOT JUST RAMADHAN, ameen. Allahafez Elyas.
