Kabul (BNA) The voice of Eid steps arrive and the heart of the faithful start beating fast to welcome the fall of Eid-ul-Fiter festival, but coming of Eid in some way make the believers to miss the holy month of Ramadan. The fall of Eid also brings happiness while the passage of Eid is little plaintive to modest.
The Eid-ul-Fiter is one of the marvelous, and prominent Eid festival, because, it is the reward of one month supplication and entreats to Almighty Allah for seeking blessing and mercy. The holy month of Ramadan is a platform to the human society to wash out their sins and get new life with a clean soul. The Eid-ul-Fiter festival doesn’t mean the end of Ramadan, Eid means new life of a human out his ash, Eid means the dawn of new human and new day. The Ramadan with its precious midnight and evenings and night with supplications reshape a human. After one month of Fasting, the Muslim nation gets reward from Allah on the first of the lunar month of Shawal, the rewards which are promised by Allah to reveal on the believers.
In one of his sermons, Amirul-Mominin Hazarat Ali (PBUH) addressed the faithful and said, “O! the people, this day is the day in which Allah Almighty reveal his mercies to the faithful, but the oppressors will be disappointed and it would be similar to the day of resurrection, then by coming out of your homes and commuting toward the Eid prayer remember your reemergence from the graves and moving toward your Lord Allah, and when returning to your home, remember your movement toward your Lord and standing for the Namaz remember that you are standing before your creator All, and by returning to your home after the Namaz (Doing prayer) remember your movement toward the paradise.” (O! the people, the small thing which pledged to the faithful is the angel address them and say that congratulations, today your pervious sins are forgiven and now take care of your future on how to spend other days.”
The first day of the lunar month of Shawel is marked as Eid-ul-Fiter Day just, because, on this day, the holy month of Ramadan comes to an end and people are allowed to break their fast and eat and drink as normal days. Roza or fasting starts from midnights and continued till the evening during which Muslims after the Maghrib (Sunset) Azan call for doing prayer. The holy month of Ramadan provides an opportunity to the people to bring reforms on their minds sins and start commute on the right path to gain the happiness and satisfaction of Allah.
