Welcoming the holy month of Ramadan




In welcoming the holy month of Ramadan (eventhough I am 6 days late putting it out here):

Peace be upon you, 
O, month of fasting
Month of night vigil
Month of Qur'an
Month of forgiveness
Month of security
Month of glowing lanterns
Month of sleepless eyes
Month of scented pulpits
Month of burning hearts

We welcome you O blessed month, month of opportunity, redemption and hope.
May you be the means for our lives to change, our faith to be rekindled and our hearts illumined in His nearness.
Ameen.
