The call to the evening prayer reverberates through the air, on radio channels and on television sets, in mosques dotted all across the world, as listening ears wait patiently in earnest, during the blessed month of Ramadan. Supplications are whispered hastily before hands dive towards food and water is gulped down swiftly; thirst and hunger finally quenched after a day-long fast. Parched mouths are relieved instantly and bodies energized and invigorated, for the much-anticipated time of Futoor has finally come.

Welcoming Ramadhan: “The Night Moon – A Special Prayer”
Night Moon- A Special Prayer!
Aminah lay quietly in her bed. She did not rustle the sheets. Late that night, she was looking for the moon. The living room was quiet. Abdullah and Yusuf were sleeping peacefully. They had been to the mosque for Taraweeh earlier.
It was now halfway through Ramadan and people were doing all sorts of good deeds; giving charity, sponsoring Iftar, caring for the fasting person.
Aminah loved Allah subhaanahu wa ta’ala and she had learnt in school that she could speak to Allah whenever she felt like it. Allah, the Creator of the Universe.
