Alhamdulillah

What a great feeling to have finally completed my six days of fasting in the month of Shawal. It always is a challenge to fast especially when it is not compulsory. Only the thought of the handsome reward that comes with it made me do it. Fasting six days in Shawal plus the one month in Ramadhan is equivalent to or like fasting the whole year, the prophet said. Now isn't that great! This year as in previous years, I did it in six straight days. I prefer it that way rather than taking breaks in between. Alhamdulillah....
