What We Can Do to Help Ease World Hunger

Somalia Famine

For most of Muslim friends this Ramadhan, we go through moments of hunger and thirst throughout the day but when dusk comes, we indulge in such wonderful food until our tummies bloat. But half-way around the world we get our brothers and sisters living in agony, having to see their children in pain and hunger

 

Every 6 minutes in Somalia, a child dies of famine. Can you believe how tragic that is? We live in a world with huge advancements in science and yet famine still exists. Wars still exist. It's almost like we're going backwards.

I feel that the purpose of every human being is to be the best that we can be and to do that, we need a good heart. When you bring relief to another person, you bring relief to yourself. When you make another happy, you bring happiness to yourself. So donate and you could save a mother and her dying child. 

 

You can donate by Pay with PayPal; it's the easiest and quickest way to donate. All you need is a debit or credit card. Take my word for it; it's completely fuss-free. It takes less than 10 minutes of your day and you get to save a LIFE.

There's literally no such thing as too little money — even if you give RM50 that could feed so many people. It takes $0.50 to feed one person — is that much? I'm pretty sure the drink you're going to purchase at Starbucks or Coffee Bean later on today costs so much more.

We spend our money on things that have actually little to no huge impact in our lives ever so often. I for one am guilty of this, so spending some of your allowance on a person in need is far more rewarding. Remember, one day it could be YOU in this situation. Wouldn't you want someone to help you?

How I Overcome Challenges During Ramadhan - Part 2

Challenges we are facing during Ramadhan

During Ramadhan, we are pretty sure that every Muslim, no matter how long they've been fasting, will do has a few challenges that they need to face during this fasting month. For us, the hurdles we are facing during this Holy month was vary from the past year. It's only been 16 days but we've already noticed what I seem to find difficult. Below are few challenges that we need to face this year.

 

#1 Cannot sleep after Sahur

After having sahur, we are feel so awake and alert. Usually, we'll take an hour to let the food settle and we'll be laying on the bed to get ready for dreamland. Since day 2 of fasting at MICET, we've only manage to get tired in the afternoon and catch up on asleep then, especially if we have class from early morning. We always fall asleep in the class since we are woke up at 4am for sahur and can't sleep after that. Either that or we'll stay up until after breakfasting and then we'll sleep. It's really troubling us because we get so weak and tired throughout the day.

 

 #2 Get Thirsty

As usual, on this fasting month, we bet everyone facing this kind of challenge especially for student like us who have lab in the afternoon until evening. Imagine that we can't drink for 12 hours and yet still need to blow up our energy to go for classes. For us that stayed at level 3 of the hostel, need to climb up all the stairs and yet still need to climb up again when going to class cause most of our classes at level 2 and 3 at academic building. Even though we are having sahur and drink a lot of plain water, yet still feel thirsty. Maybe because the weather nowadays getting so hot due to global warming issue.

#3 We catch sore throat, fever and flu

We hate this kind of sickness! This problem's been re-occurring among us which fatimah was got the flu and sore throat first then followed by naquiah and mardhiah. In fact, as we're creating this entry, Naquiah have a mountain of tissues next to her and fatimah got very horrible sore throat. For us, it's not suprise us at all because eating less means getting less of the nutrients that we need for a healthy immune system.

Our challenges may seem minor to some but it seriously makes it challenging for us to get through the day especially since we've to be weary of everything we do to make our fasting as perfect as possible. Having said that, we are realize that Ramadhan may be one of those things that some of us secretly dread but it's such as good wake-up call. You don't know how much you actually have until you have to refrain yourself from it all. We dread knowing that there's a feast underneath that fridge and being unable to indulge in it but compare that to a leper on a street watching healthy people walking cheerfully into a restaurant. Doesn't your situation seem more desirable?

 

How I Overcame Challenges During Ramdhan (Part 1)

For this entry, we will talked about the meaning of Ramadhan and several reasons why Ramadhan is considered important to Muslims. We hope this infomation give benefits to all of us. 

WHAT IS RAMADHAN?

Ramadhan is the ninth month of the Islamic calender, when Muslims fast during daylight hours. Ramadhan is intended to increase our self-control in all areas, including food, sleeping, sex and the use of our time.

There are several reasons why Ramdhan is considered important:

• The Qur'an was first revealed during this month
• The gates of Heaven are open
• The gates of Hell are closed and the devils are chained up in Hell

THE QUR'AN REVEALED

"The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong)"

[al-Baqarah 2:185]

The actual night that the Qur'an was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad is called Lailatul Qadr, and to stand in prayer on this night is said to be better than a thousand months of worship.

Ramadhan is often called 'month of the Qur'an' and Muslims attempt to recite as much of the Qur'an as they can during the month.

No one knows on which particular night the Qur'an was revealed, but it is said to be one of the last ten nights of Ramadhan.

THE GATES OF HEAVEN ARE OPENED AND THE GATES OF HELL ARE CLOSED

It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "When Ramadan comes, the gates of Paradise are opened and the gates of Hell are closed, and the devils are put in chains."

(Agreed upon)

Muslims believe that their good actions bring a greater reward during this month than at any other time of year, because this month has been blessed by Allah.

The Beginning of life as a Bachelor Student in UniKL MICET (Part 2)

The second week here was very tiring week. Many things need to be settled up like MARA loan application and credit transfers. We will be fasting here since this month is fasting month for Muslim. Fasting here is very challenging on physically and mentally. The classes here are packed. Most of our classes will be started around 8am and will be ended   around 6pm. So, we need a lot of energy to stay fit during classes. Thank you Allah we are still here for celebrating 6th day of Ramadhan in Unikl Micet. As a student, we should know how to manage our time and how to stay fit during lecture and tutorial classes especially during this fasting month.
