Defender of Islam!
Asalaamu Alaikkum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu
I ask Allah Subhana Wa Ta'ala for forgiveness as what I am about to write could be considered as judgemental, only Allah Subhana Wa Ta'ala can judge and He is the best of Judges.
Maa Shaa Allah the masjid was full for the Fajr prayer on the first day of Ramadan, something stirred within me and I started to hate the people for coming. This is because on a 'normal' day there were ever only two lines of believers, even up to the Fajr prayer yesterday. Then all of a sudden the masjid was full of people who would otherwise never see the inside of a masjid. These same people will come early for the Maghrib prayer because there is free food on offer.
Alhamdulilah I was able to recognise the 'regular' people among the throng of this morning.
May Allah Subhana Wa Ta'ala forgive me for feeling this way and I ask my brothers and sisters to also forgive me for the negativity of this thread. May we all be present at the masjid for Laylatul Qader, a night which is better than one thousand months. Ameen.
