Dear Residents,
Our Muslim brothers and sisters will be observing their Holy month of the Ramadan expected to begin today. Observed by Muslims around the world, Ramadan is a time for spiritual purification achieved through fasting, self-sacrifice and prayers for the Muslims.
Celebrated during the ninth month of Islamic calendar, the fast is observed each day from sunrise to sunset. Fasting during Ramadan is one of the five Pillars of Islam. The Islamic belief that requires that Muslims perform five central duties in order to strengthen their faith.
Of course, after the long fasting month, our Muslims brothers and sisters will celebrate the end of Ramadan with the Hari Raya Aidil Fitri celebrations.
It seemed like it was just yesterday when we send out a similar greeting last year, almost the same time when we started our Resident's Association. How time flies!
Anyway, on behalf of the non-Muslims residents in our kampung in USJ 11/3, we would like to wish all our Muslim brothers and sisters a safe fasting for this holy month of the Ramadan to all who reside in and outside our community.
The Committee
11 Trees @ USJ
