If the tongue fasts, you will become a flower!/ Three narrations of special fasts

group Society; news agency Persian: Nowruz this year is tied to the holy month of Ramadan. The spring of nature and the spring of the Qur’an have become one. Now that Ajain is with two Baharim, it is not unlikely that we want to bloom. It is not strange, let the air of flight hit us and fill our hearts towards God, if God is a friend.

We have conquered the earth a lot and life is still hard, maybe if we climb the road will be smoother. It means either the problems are solved or they are small in our eyes. Anyway, this year there is a royal opportunity. Here we review some narrations that have the mood of the holy month.

story First; you particle for direct object fasting a slave me Fasting!

Everyone knows how to talk sweetly, but not everyone! That’s why when some people start talking, you want to be silent and watch their words. You have two ears, borrow the other two ears from God so that you don’t miss a word of their words.

I was a child, I don’t know how old I was, I hadn’t gone to school yet, when I came to my senses and saw that people, including my family, had ordered them not to eat breakfast or lunch for thirty days, that is, not even to touch water until the Maghrib call to prayer. It didn’t take long before I became older and obliged and realized that the name of this decision and will is “fasting”. Children have a habit of imitating whatever adults do. Fasting too. When my parents saw my insistence on fasting, they said that I can fast, but “sparrow head”. They also fully explained the way. That because we are children, we can have a so-called informal “doping” and iftar during the midday call to prayer, and then not eat anything again until the Maghrib call to prayer and have a real iftar like adults. If our “thirst” was too high, the elders could bring a sip of water to our dry throat.

I had an aunt who could handle everything in the world, according to her own words, except for three things! A child’s thirst, a man’s tears and Imam Hussain’s shrine. Once, as he said, “I was fasting…” he was a guest at our house. I didn’t have the patience for the thirst of the head of the sparrow, but I had to endure it. My aunt couldn’t bear it, filled her palm with cold water and washed my face. Then he said that you are at ease! No one understands the way we wash your face, drink water from this palm, I will not tell anyone. I stayed, aunt, why is she crying? I heard him saying: How could they not give water to your children, Hossein!

When mom arrived, she was surprised to see us and said: “What’s going on?” One fasted and the other fasted. The aunt laughed and said: This little lady’s fast was blessed… I don’t know what happened, but what she said was strange to my heart. I felt that I have gained honor before God; I fell in love with fasting. It’s over and gone…

(Ruqieh Hosseini with a memory of the late Zulikha Mousavi)

story Second; fasting Language Both Catch!

We had a neighbor, I think his tongue was taken from the snake’s tail. It had a ring and a bite. It was not his hand, he would do a simple greeting in such a way that it would break your heart. Servant of God, you run after people’s work a lot. He was technical, hard working and caring, but his language was very rewarding. It was smoking and sending it to the sky. Once he had cried a lot. Chele had mentioned that why should I, who reads the Quran, prays, start the work of the people like this in my grief? Why don’t I have salt?

Why does everything go well until I am silent, but as soon as I open my mouth to speak, people are quick-tempered and sensitive? They criticize and taunt, how much bite do you have? In the same way, the tongue of fasting was walking and praying to God that he saw the mirror in front of him. It was as if someone had put a word in his heart and the prayer had an effect, he said to himself, “Oh Yahya”, you’ve had a stomachache all these days, you haven’t eaten, fast for a while!

The number one “will” man of the neighborhood did not speak unless necessary. It became so much, so much that if Ayhya didn’t answer the greeting, we would have said that he was mute. After some time, he started to speak. He started talking again, but it was too little. As a rule, he rarely spoke, and half of his words were hadiths and verses of the Qur’an, and the rest were stroking words. Everyone was thirsty for his words.

Grandfather of God Biyamarz used to say: Ayhi, whose words used to be like a spoon used to cut and grind a person’s heart from pain, now his words are like spring breeze and flower leaves. A person’s life becomes sweet with his words and quotes. Ayhya was his friend. At that time, when his tongue was bitter, the rock of patience was Baba Bozur, now, but their place had changed, Ayhi had said that when a person closes his mouth, his ears open; You do two, two, four, you see that you didn’t hear as much as you talked. A silent person also gets thirsty, his heart wants God to speak or listen, and he showed the Quran and said: “Hajji, have I changed?” Do not be surprised! Thorns turn into flowers from the love of the word, God, and Ahl al-Bayt…”

We had never heard a lie from Grandfather. The old man was telling the truth: Fasting was acceptable, his friend had become a flower, I think Mohammadi Gul, who even now, whenever his name is mentioned, everyone sends blessings to his memory.

(Hadi Javadi with narration by Ayhya Mahmoudi)

story Third; Like Lady Esmaeili!

My sister always says that the longing for proper cultural work about the holy month of Ramadan has remained in the hearts of the community. It remains in the heart of the society that we still have the sadness of how to encourage those few people who fast to fast. If the work had been done correctly, instead of discussing how fasting and thirst for hours would harm the kidneys and internal organs, it would have been discussed that according to the same rituals that talk about “chakra” and “karma” He says, fasting means detoxification and cleansing of the body. The blessing of fasting in the high, superior and holy Sharia of Islam, which is completely out of place!

Our society is thirsty for cultural work for the holy month of Ramadan and the spring of the Quran, like the countries where the biggest Eid, auctions, festivals and happy caravans start in the month of Ramadan. On their virtual pages, chefs and chefs enthusiastically teach all kinds of desserts, jams, food suitable for iftar and suhoor. Kindergarten teachers teach a variety of games suitable for children that take less energy from their fasting parents, and in short, the month of Ramadan has a happy face. Of course, he also thanks God for several years that good and attractive things have been done that have increased the grace of God’s month for children.

Sometimes one person does the work of a hundred people. My sister remembers her elementary school teacher like this: “God’s constant mercy on her beautiful soul!” He thinks he has passed away, so he says this. When he was their school teacher, he was old and close to retirement. During the month of Ramadan, the children in their class were afraid of thirst and hunger, and most of all, my sister Shkamowi told the children not to sleep at dawn because the angels are watching you eat, and iftar is also God.

He said that fasting is not only for understanding the hungry and thirsty. Fasting is for that day when there is no refuge from thirst and hunger except God. The same day that if your deeds are good, you will be safe, that is the Day of Judgment. He used to say pray, tell the truth so that God’s grace will shade your head in the desert of Barzakh. For the oppressed of the world and the martyrs of Karbala, if you shed tears, it will remain a trust in the hands of the angels and it will rain God’s mercy in your life at the right time.

Their teacher was very kind, his cultural work and spiritual illustrations did not speak in the minds of children of that stature. My sister who tells the same story to us and her children every year. There were 37 students in their class that year, and it is not unlikely that the others will remember it like my sister. 37 people are only his students of the same year and God knows how many other people during his many years of teaching and service remember him from Ramadan to Ramadan. Is this not the remains of al-Salahat? This beautiful cultural work; This is to make children fall in love with God’s moon. (Zeinab Masoumi, memory of Mrs. Esmaili)
