IT feels as if it was yesterday. But alas! We have now entered the climax in the spiritual season of the blessed month of Ramadan. Here I am referring to the last ten days of this glorious month; days in which the night of Majesty would occur; a night which is better than a thousand months spent in worshipping the Almighty.
But how might you go about partaking in your own destiny during this night when, according to the Prophet, “the number of Angels who will descend to earth will be greater than the number of pebbles on the whole planet”!.? This question was also posed by Aisha to Muhammad .
As you set about to increase your spiritual capital during the coming days, remember your brethren all around the world who are presently going through trials, tribulations and strife. Remember your sister in Syria, your brother in Gaza and your compatriots in the North Eastern parts of this country. Not to spare a thought for them is to suffer spiritual deficit. Prophet Muhammad says: “He is not a believer he who wakes up in a day and share no concern for his fellow brethren”.
