Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar La ilaha illaallah, Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar Walillahil Hamd!
The Eid festive is here again.
It was a glorious morning with the sky spread out as a beautiful canopy. Delicate winter with the sun’s rays peeping from the clouds and providing the much needed warmth.

Happy people with their best outfits on, fill the spaces on the Eid
prayer ground. Little kids cuddle beside their mothers. Shaking hands,
hugs and kisses filled the air.
We find our space and gradually settle down…reciting the dhikr, waiting for the iqamah.
In those silent moments, I noticed a young girl, with her mother, place her prayer mat in front of us…As she tried to button up her abaya, I noticed something peculiar.…her fingers couldn't move. I thought maybe it was the frosty weather that made her fingers remain stiff...but when her mother gradually drew in to help her button up and take off her shoes, I realized that I was sadly mistaken. She really was unable to move her fingers.
SubhanAllah.
I cried and thanked Allah for granting us a simple yet the most basic blessing in our lives--the ability to move our limbs.
His countless blessings encircle us all the time. Little thanks do we give.
