Bismillahirrahmanirrahim,

This Ramadan teaches me valuable reflections or lessons. First and foremost, this month kind of a rest period for me to treat and heal the soul. My soul has been in aches before this month. I had to go through unproductive days, struggling to focus on devotional acts, like prayers and rememberance. This month comes as it wants to give me 'some me-time' to improve my worship to Allāh.

Secondly, Ramadan teaches me to practice self-control in excessive eating, vice behaviors and daily obsession. Months before, I spent so many money just to... eat. I also engaged with slandering and backbiting especially in social media. This Ramadan, I control myself to absolutely leave all of them. Eat less, speak less and sleep less. By practicing this, I feel the exhortation of the love of Allāh towards me everyday, Subhanallah. Last but not least, the amount of prayers, rememberance and recitation of Qurān is surprisingly better than previous months. Performing Sunnah prayers becoming so tasty to soul. What does this means? It means I have the potential to wake up and do so many Sunnah prayers actually. It was just I am lazy before.

In conclusion, I cannot get to feel all of these amazing experience if not by Allāh who grants me those. I hope Allāh allows me to keep those consistent in the next months because that is the aim of Ramadan, to shape us, the believers, the best akhlaq for the rest eleven months.
