The last 10 days of Ramadan, has been an entirely new and spiritual experience for me. A period that, I had not experienced ever in my life in the past years of Ramadan.

At the mosque, late into the night during Qiamul Lail,

I lay in prostration, praying hard and long.

I asked forgiveness and the ability to forgive others.

I prayed for a calm heart and a stronger mind. I prayed for patience, to deal with all grief and sad moments in life that has left scars and wounds.

I prayed for strength to be able to bear the absence of those close to my heart who are not with me anymore,

I thanked Allah for all the moments in life, that has brought

peace, goodness and hope, for the good people

and

for those who came as lessons in my life as well.

I prayed for family, friends, relatives

and all

to be blessed with His Mercy, Grace and Forgiveness

. Looking forward and moving ahead in all goodness life has to offer
