Pukul 17:51, adzan Maghrib sayup-sayup terdengar dari taksi yang saya tumpangi kemarin. Saatnya berbuka puasa, tetapi sayang, saya masih di jalan untuk menuju kampus dan ditengah-tengah kemacetan jalan KH.Abdullah Syafii’e. Aku jadi ingat Abang, sepertinya dia juga berbuka di perjalanan pulang ke Jakarta. Akhirnya aku langsung membatalkan puasaku dengan teh panas dan sedikit cemilan yang sudah mama bekalkan (terima kasih mama). Alhamdulillah, sudah cukup untuk perutku.

Ramadhan ini akan terasa berbeda. Saya akan jarang berbuka dirumah. Pagi-pagi sudah di kantor, malam berbalik lagi menjadi seorang mahasiswi yang statusnya ‘belum kelar-kelar’. Namanya juga usaha, ya ngga?

Semoga di Ramadhan ini ibadah kita diterima oleh Allah SWT dan tetaplah ikhlas menjalankan puasa untukNya.

“To Allah belongeth all that is in the heavens and on earth. Whether ye show what is in your minds or conceal it, Allah Calleth you to account for it. He forgiveth whom He pleaseth, and punisheth whom He pleaseth, for Allah hath power over all things.
The Messenger believeth in what hath been revealed to him from his Lord, as do the men of faith. Each one (of them) believeth in Allah, His angels, His books, and His messengers. “We make no distinction (they say) between one and another of His messengers.” And they say: “We hear, and we obey: (we seek) Thy forgiveness, our Lord, and to Thee is the end of all journeys.
On no soul doth Allah place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns. (Pray:) “Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget or fall into error; our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which Thou didst lay on those before us; Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins, and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. Thou art our Protector; Grant us victory over the unbelievers.”
(Sura Al-Baqarah 284-286)
