SALAM LEBARAN

Di kesempatan ini saya ingin mengucapkan selamat hari raya buat semua..SELAMAT HARI RAYA MAAF ZAHIR & BATIN. Mudahan ramadhan kali ini membawa kita semakin dekat dengan pencipta kita yang sebenarnya. Bermuhasabahlah, adakah KPI ramadhan kali ini berjaya dicapai sebagaimana Allah swt nyatakan didalam Al-quran surah Al-baqarah ayat 185 bermaksud :

"The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for the people and clear proofs of guidance and criterion. So whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast it; and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days. Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship and [wants] for you to complete the period and to glorify Allah for that [to] which He has guided you; and perhaps you will be grateful."

Semoga lebaran kali ini disambut dengan penuh sederhana sebagai tanda syukur kita kepada Allah swt. Ingatlah juga kepada orang lain yang tidak senasib dengan kita...
