Our faith is like a yoyo?

Talking about Ramadhan is identical with fasting, tarawih, and all things that related with it. It’s the important moment for the Moslems to pray and to do many kindnesses to make them to be closer with Allah.

Talking about Ramadhan, it also reminds us with our childhood in the village. It was the situation when every child with their own awareness went to the mosque to pray. It was the situation when the sound of “takbir” heared everywhere. It was the time when we felt very close with Allah. What a beautiful moment!

But, what happen with those children who always went to the mosque and red Quran with their friends, the children who always walked around holding a torch and yelling “Allahu Akbar”? What happen with them when they are adult? Are they still the same?

Not every Moslem in the world can defend their faith, because it’s actually difficult. We must realize that Allah has created us imperfect. That’s why the faith of the Moslems fluctuating. It can be described as a yoyo. Sometimes it’s high and sometimes, it’s low. Someone who can defend and increase their faith not only during Ramadhan, but also in daily life, he’s absolutely a winner. But someone who can not defend their faith and may be worse than before, he’s a loser.

As we know that to defend something’s more difficult than to increase it. It’s natural. But however, as a good Moslem, we must try to make our faith always increase all the time.

Here I have some ways to do to defend and increase our faith, so you don’t have to be a loser:

First, take a pray together in the mosque

Taking a pray in the mosque together with the other Moslems will remind us with Allah.

Second, do Tahajud praying

Allah loves everyone who sleeps after Isya and get up in the 1/3 night to do Tahajud praying. We will feel closer with Allah.

Next, read the holy Quran and understanding the meanings

From understanding the meaning and the content of Quran, can be our guides for knowing which is permitted and forbidden to do as a Moslem.

Finally, fight the Syaitan’s whisper

Our real enemy will always try to deter us from Allah ways. Syaitan will also divert our attention from our purpose in life. Try to fight it!

Life’s full of ups and downs. Sometimes faith can be decrease and increase. Sometimes we feel that we’re close with Allah and sometimes we feel far from Allah. We must realize it and try to turn back to Allah as soon as possible. He doesn’t expect perfection from us but Allah hopes that every Moslem always tries the best to be a better. Don’t be afraid because Allah has given us a strong system of defense, it is our faith. Please don’t give up to defend and to increase your faith. Insya Allah we will be a winner to get his paradise.
