How To Spend Ramadan And Eid Testing For Coronavirus
Sadly, this year we will celebrate Ramadan and Eid in a very different and most serious situation. The virus is called the Corona; the storm has taken the whole world into its own. The disease started in China. He has taken almost the whole world into his own custody. The conditions we are facing in Ramadan now. We never even thought of him in dreams.
We usually look forward to the holy month of Ramadan. Although it is not easy to fast on long hot days, the delicious dishes at Iftar and Sahar are worth the thirst and hunger. Sharbat, shakes, and juices are served at Iftar to quench the thirst of a long hot day, and most mothers spend hours in the kitchen preparing meals for everyone in the house. In the morning you wake up with the aroma of hot paratha, omelet, shami kebab, and flavored milk lassi.
Happiness is expressed in Iftar, which you do at home with a variety of dishes. Many children play outside after Taraweeh prayers.
On the moon night, children go with their parents to buy clothes, shoes, and toys. We often see scenes in shopping centers when parents look embarrassed when children ask for something that is beyond their budget. So they take the baby away from the store.
I just want to guide you all on how to deal with this stressful situation so that you and your family can get the most out of these blessed days.
How to get rid of boredom
As Pakistan, like other countries in the world, is going through a lockdown, we must all learn to survive in these conditions to the best of our ability. Instead of bothering and bothering your parents with boredom complaints, try to find interesting activities at home. You can search for projects on the Internet and spend most of your leisure time engaging in activities that interest you.
Read good books and try to improve your vocabulary and writing skills. You can also play indoor games with your siblings and parents in your spare time.
Overcome uncertainty about exams
This year, schools had to close without prior notice to control the spread of the coronavirus. With the initial excitement of the holiday suddenly fading, students are confused as to whether the exams will be held at the reopening of schools, or whether their annual performance will be improved. What you learn in class will be a continuation of what you learned during the previous academic year.
Now you have time and make a schedule for your day these days and plan for your education. Each student has different times that are appropriate for his review. You can go to bed immediately after Esha prayers and study after Sahar. Those of you who sleep after fasting. They can get their education at night.
Don’t over-demand at the time of the Iftar
Dear friends, I am sure you are all mature enough to understand the plight of your parents in these troubled times. Most of your fathers (and mothers, too, if they are working women) are at home and have probably been working from home for more than a month. Businesses are stagnant and many have lost their source of income.
In these difficult times, when the budget is increased and when it becomes difficult to buy groceries from the lockdown, cooperate with your parents in having a simple iftar. You all know how much mom likes to cook your favorite food, especially when you are fasting. This year you can spend it on simple dishes.
Instead of making a sad face at the Iftar table, be cheerful. This will keep your parents calm. It will make them feel that you feel their burden and share it.
Humbly turn to Allah
This Ramadan, take out the daily time and remember how happy you are. We can never thank Allah for the infinite grace and grace of God and the infinite kindness. At least you can try to help people who are not as lucky as you are.
Pray five times a day and pray to protect you from the Coronavirus, and to protect your family, friends, Pakistan, and all the people in the world. In these critical times, only one heavenly intervention can keep us safe, so ask for many prayers from Allah’s mercy.
Set aside some time daily to read books on the Holy Quran and the life of the Holy Prophet (PBUH). This Ramadan, family activities can be helpful if you try to understand the Qur’anic verses you read. Ask any of your parents or grandparents to explain it so that you have a better understanding of the Qur’an and its teachings.
Reduce Eid shopping
Eid and shopping go together. This time, the market and the malls are closed due to the lockdown. Even if the markets and malls are opened before the Eid, stay away from them. This advice is not only for the purpose of safety, but also to give you the idea of distinguishing between needs and desires.
Wouldn’t it be surprising if you asked your parents to give the money they had set aside for Eid shopping to the poor? You can’t visit friends because of Corona, so plainclothes is appropriate now when many people have lost their lives to Corona and others are fighting their battles.
Remember, happiness is not found in new things or clothes, it is a peace of mind. We should celebrate the Eid with simplicity, the large number of deaths worldwide, and the suffering that The People have suffered. Have lunch and dinner with your family members at home, pray for better and healthier days. This year, it is a great way to spend the Eid.
