As tomorrow is the second most important day in Ramadan, Laylat al-qadr being the firs, it is a night when you will see more people in the masjid than any other night.

It is often associated as laylat al-qadr and for many it is laylat al-qadr (blessed night worth 83 years of worship). Laylat al-qadr comes on a different night each year on either the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, or 29th night.

So like many, I will be sleeping in the mosque tomorrow night and doing i'tikaf (seclusion in the mosque for the pure sake of Allah). Not that you guys will miss me much, but just wanted to remind everyone to keep yourself occupied with Ramadan and its last days and away from the wars of curezone.

You only have a few days left and it should be spent on Allah, praising him and being thankful for his blessings, sending salutations on our most loved Prophet, doing zikr, giving lots of sadakah (charity) and being kind to people, especially me.

I have been blessed very much this Ramadan and I have had so many good things happen to me. I got a lot less money this year, but I got 3 jobs writing for some newspapers which has the potential of letting me get off of welfare and charity for life.

I write for Natural news, helium, suite 101 and occasionally Orato. Through the many forums I have on curezone, I have been given an opportunity to be a freelance writer. Something I never thought was possible.

My first check was for $145 and it was the sweetest money I have ever seen. I worked so hard for this money and this job at Helium opened others, such as Natural News which pays very good. I am not bragging, just telling you that through Allah's mercy, my life is better and I am more blessed.

As many concentrate on money, homes, cars and children, I concentrate on Angels, Prophet Mohammad, worship and Allah.
I think this year, we must remember that Allah is planning out our life and he can do a lot better than we can hope for. That at the end of the tunnel there is hope and mercy.

So I wish to thank all who supported me over the last few years as I struggled to be well and to those who stood behind me in my many struggles here on curezone and yes even to those who attacked me. For as they attacked me, banned me and humiliated me, I became the person I am.

As we remember Allah, we must thank him for the good and the bad. One of the hardest days was when my cat Precious died. I still am so sad to think of her passing, but with all things Allah decides, it was for the best. Me and baby are closer than ever and I think I will cherish her more.

She gets more food than Precious did and more specialties as I want her to be happy. I keep her more secluded and more quiet I guess. I thank Allah for the many years I had with Precious and I thank him that I finally was able to bury her.

It is funny, we mourn the innocent little creatures more than some relatives as they were helpless. Everyday Precious would be waiting on the door step for me to see what I brought home to eat. Everyday when I left, she would cry in not wanting me to go without her and everyday she kissed me. Funny she died after 7 years, just like MO.

I so hope she is with Mo on this day but either way I know that she is very happy. Who could not be happy in the prescence of Allah, our creator.

So on these last few days of Ramadan, let us all reflect on what we have and be thankful for what we don't. I made a challenge in my blog, The crescent moon shines on us all, and told the people to take a challenge to depend just on Allah for all finances and needs. Within one week I received unexpected money and a month later I was working.

I am asking you now to take this challenge and depend only on Allah for all things and I am asking you today to love your family with all your heart and lastly I am asking you to love Prophet Mohammad more than them.

May you have a blessed EID or holiday and may your last days be filled with hope, love and blessings from our most beloved creator.

Sara
