If that is so then my take is 50% of the world's muslim population no need to fast as they are suffering everyday anyway. They are poor and don't have enough to eat. <BR/>To me fasting is an act of discipline and submission and it strengthens your faith to Islam.<BR/>By the way Captain, in the NST today 14 Sept you see photos of two politicians linked to PKFZ and doing some Islamic act, a Quran charity and another stopping the publication of a book. As a Muslim reading the peice I puke. These people are hypocrites who used religion as a political tool to fit their purpose.The fact that you exposed PKFZ is to me "beribadat", an act of a good muslim.<BR/>Selamat Berpuasa.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1986492775396304922.post-73508686165774068592007-09-13T04:42:00.000+08:002007-09-13T04:42:00.000+08:00radin galoh:elviza:ena:My favorite ladies. thank y...radin galoh:<BR/>elviza:<BR/>ena:<BR/><BR/>My favorite ladies. thank you and selamat berpuasa to you too.The Ancient Marinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06577426604578337113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1986492775396304922.post-57169035563230006622007-09-12T23:31:00.000+08:002007-09-12T23:31:00.000+08:00Captain.Have a blessed and joyous Ramadhan!Captain.<BR/>Have a blessed and joyous Ramadhan!NURAINA A SAMADhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07671206532110686716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1986492775396304922.post-25798393151709942222007-09-12T10:44:00.000+08:002007-09-12T10:44:00.000+08:00Like you said Captain, its impossible to completel...Like you said Captain, its impossible to completely eradicate poverty.

Of course it varies too; some peoples are luckier than most.<BR/><BR/>I just a read an article in the latest Time magazine, an excerpt from a biography on Mother Teresa. In it, she claims for most of her life, she never "felt" God. Sometimes she told her confessors that her life is sham because she only felt "darkness". The torment almost caused her to "murtad" many times - which went on for 50 years of her life or so. Goodness, so "The Saint" sufferred too; of the spirtual kind in this case while ministering to the poor and sick in the slums of Culcutta...<BR/><BR/>It will be a few days to Ramadhan yet. Let's do some introspection and see how we can help to ease the suffering of others.<BR/><BR/>Salaam and Selamat Berpuasa.Mat Salohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13660319094415586065noreply@blogger.com
