One of the best activities
3 years ago
I go to gym on the average of three times weekly for 7 months now. I can say now that I did it, after about ten years of quitting exercises.
It was not that easy. But it is much fun!

Purpose of Fasting
3 years ago
The Quran says what means, (O you who believe, fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those who were before you, in order that you may learn taqwa (piety)) (Al-Baqarah 2:183).
Taqwa is a very important spiritual and ethical term of the Quran. It is the sum total of all Islamic spirituality and ethics. It is a quality in a believer’s life that keeps him/her aware of Allah all the time. A person who has taqwa loves to do good and to avoid evil for the sake of Allah. Taqwa is piety, righteousness and consciousness of Allah. Taqwa requires patience and perseverance. Fasting teaches patience, and with patience one can rise to the high position of taqwa.
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that fasting is a shield. It protects a person from sin and lustful desires. When the disciples of Jesus asked him how to cast the evil spirits away, he is reported to have said, “But this kind never comes out except by prayer and fasting.” (Matthew 17:21).
Fasting in Islam releases the human spirit from the clutches of desire, thus allowing moderation to prevail in the carnal self.
Marathon

Today was a special day. All the family with grandmother spent the morning in the kids’ school. There was a lot of games and fun. The surprise that my wife and the young daughter came in the third place in KG marathon. While me & the older girl came in the fifth place in primary grades marathon.
The best thing that children had a lot of fun with friends and family.
