Ramadhan Day 13th.
1:54 PMNawaitu sauma ghodin an’adae fardisyahri romadhona hazizhi sanati lillahhi ta’ala.
“Sahaja aku berniat puasa esok hari untuk menunaikan fardu Ramadan tahun ini kerana Allah Taala.”
Ramadhan 1 takde, ramadhan 5 takder terus langkau Ramadhan 13. Save bajet orang kata hehe.
Why Ramadhan 13th so special for it deserved a post of it's own?
Those who's on my FB list should have known the reason being since I've shouted about it proudly and loudly earlier on..

Today is rather historic. Alis completed full day of fasting. 1st attempt yet a successful one. No complaint, no asking or water or food at all whole day. Even Erin tempted her with foods and milk, she just cool-ly ignored. Pheww kids this day are indeed tough. Syukur alhamdullilah. Alis, cayaa lahhhhh :)
"Yes, you read right!
My 5 years old completed her 1st day of puasa successfully. It's an impulse decision actually as I wasn't planning on start her training on fasting this year. Maybe next year in my thought. While I was having sahur with my husband, she woke up and join us so I prepared rice for her as well since she requested for it. Then my husband ask her if she wanted to try fasting that day and she said okay. I taught her niat puasa and briefly told her what she can and cannot do.
All day along, I've been keeping tap on her activities. I didn't allow her to play actively, worried she might get thirst after that. I encouraged her to do activities that doesn't need much energy like colouring. She obeyed me during the 1st 30 minutes or so and then started running, screaming and wrestling with Erin like there's no tomorrow. I'm just waiting consciously for any signal from her that she might need to breakfast earlier, but till after Asar, she's still very much energetic and determined to finish her puasa. Sooooo very unlike me. When I first started fasting, I remembered being melepek the whole day like kain buruk. Reaching Asar, I am already having hallucination. I think I saw oasis in the middle of my living room and practically crawled to it kah kah kah. Simply put, I'm not functioning at all.
Based on her previous experience having fasting people in the house, 1st was when I puasa ganti few months back and then arrival of Holy month Ramadhan, she knew fasting people will be treated extra special. When I was fasting, my husband won't allowed me to do hard job. I can skip cooking if I wanted to and we will either order take out or dine outside, depends on my liking. During ramadhan, I will r atleast try to cooked whatever my husband requested me to even if I never cook it before. So basically she got that idea and being a smart girl as she is, she used fasting as a weapon hoping we would buy it hahahah.
When it comes to foods, I will as best as I can, try to grant her whatever she feels like having for berbuka. However, things certainly got limits. She misunderstood about the fasting concept and thought that I will gave way and she will get away with anything on the account of she's fasting. I recalled this incident that day..
Alis messing up with Erin's book and teased her while she's coloring.
Erin : kakakkkkkkkk, jangan la kacau adik punya..
Alis : na na na na na... kakak puasaaaaa, mummy tak kan marah kakakkkk...
Excuseeeeee meeeeeee ......
Puasa or not, you did something wrong, I'll will definitely gave you what you deserved.
I think she learned her lesson that day :)
Well, of course, being her first day, our berbuka and sahur menu was decided by her. She wanted sushi for sahur, mummy will make sushi or you, no sweat. She wanted McDonald happy Meal for supper, her papa belikan Happy Meal pukul 12 tgh malam for her. Just for the sake to encouraged her, not to spoil her.
So anyway, this is what we had for Iftar ( day 13th) and Sahur (day 14th).
Allahumma laka shumtu wa bika amantu wa ‘alaa rizqika afthartu birahmatika ya arhamarrohimin
Maksud:
Ya Allah bagi Engkau aku berpuasa dan dengan Engkau beriman aku dengan rezeki Engkau aku berbuka dengan rahmat Engkau wahai yang Maha Pengasih dan Penyayang.
