ibraheemc2000 2574 Popular Post Share Posted March 10 Ramadan Kareem As normally I got you with the click bait, man, I have been doing this for years now, but regardless I will be writing about this great event as I do every year.To all my fellow EPIC MINEMAN AND LOTC PLAYERS who are not aware exactly what this post is and what is going on! Every year I, yours truly, write ‘THE RAMADAN POST’ in which I express what Ramadan is, The values of Ramadan, and of course THE LOTC RAMADAN CHALLENGE(more on this later). I always post 3 ramadan posts in Ramadan, The first one(This one) The last 10 days, And then the EID post. Needless to say, I am very happy to have arrived at this point in life with all of you again, where I can see my friends and community thrive, and beat each other with good vibes, and do their best to try and promote goodness and kindness, so in this regard, Happy Ramadan everyone, from the bottom of my heart.To those that are un-aware there is QUITE a large Muslim community on LOTC, and many of us participate in Ramadan, and many of us LEAVE LOTC for the month!What is RamadanSO What is RAMADAN!? And why are there billions of people so excited for it! Well Ramadan is the ninth month on the Islamic Calendar, now I know, I know, ‘Ibraheem, What is so special about a 9th month out of all things?’ Well I'd say RELAX I GOT YOU! It is so special because this month, Ramadan, Is when the Quran, The Islamic Holy text and word was first sent down. In this month, Muslims from all around the world fast from sunrise till sunset. This is to remind ourselves of the blessings we have, and to also humble us to remember those less fortunate who do not have food, so that we may become closer to our fellow human beings. That means not consuming anything, Including food and water, and also not partaking in the birds and the bees.Now I already hear you saying ‘But Ibraheem, You absolute hulking chad of a Man, Why is that so significant? And is that it?’ Well don't you worry you mineman block roleplayer, Brother Ibraheem is here yet again to answer your questions! In Ramadan, we muslims Call this month a Month of MERCY, you see, we believe that Shaytan otherwise known as Ibless or Satan or THE DEVIL, Is locked up! In this month with the devil locked up you are able to much easier to drop bad habits, promote and grow new good ones, and become both a better person both physically and spiritually! What are the values of RamadanNow there is a lot of aspects about Ramadan, But in this month we try to better ourselves by doing good deeds and begin actively doing a large increase of good actions this month to reap all the rewards it provides, So… What are some of these actions I speak about, Well, This is often literally everything that is good but the most common is feeding the hungry, Giving charity, helping around the community it being cleaning up, or helping old lady jenkins down the road install her new tv that she still calls a gimmick.But why? I hear you ask. Well In Ramadan we believe that YOUR GOOD DEEDS are multiplied by 70! Yes you heard me, 70 times you get the good deeds of doing one, now that's a steal, Especially because even a Smile is charity, and that's a good deed! Not only in this blessed month, We believe on the last TEN nights, God goes down to the lowest heavens and listens to the Dua(requests) from us and answers them or gives us something TEN TIMES BETTER FOR US! There is SO much benefits to Ramadan, that if I stayed here typing, you all would have left from exhaustion of reading SO, Ill finish this off with the PHYSICAL benefits of fastingWhat are the PHYSICAL Benefits of Ramadan Not only this, Fasting in this certain way is actually SUPER healthy for you!(Do note, you are exempt from fasting if you poor, on your time of the month(women stuff), medical needs such as medicine or emergencies, and if you vomit and extra, please consult with your local imam for more details or look online, TDLR Fast if you are able, and do not fast if you cannot medically) Fasting actually super healthy for you, a matter of fact in Ramadan, you are not supposed to have giant feasts, but small healthy dinners, and not overeat, a common mistake which takes place when fasting, because people fast all day and when they can break their fast, they go all in with a huge plate, instead they should eat small portions and healthy foods, this is heavily encouraged. Now what does fasting do to the body if done properly? I'm glad you asked! This will make you self care people very happy, and those chads who like to go to the gym and get fit! When you fast in this way, it actually detoxes the body. Now here is the breakdown of each stage of the thirty days of fasting! Stage 1, during the first couple of days of fasting both blood sugar level and blood pressure level drops, and the body begins the cleansing process, the first few days are the hardest as they are usually accompanied with headaches, dizziness, nausea and intense hunger. Stage 2, during the second stage, the body becomes accustomed to the fasting schedule, and the digestive system is able to rest. The Digestive system’s energy now focuses on cleansing the body and healing the cells as the white blood cells start to become more active. During this stage the organs start their repair process as well. Stage 3, by the third stage energy levels will have increased, your mind is able to concentrate better, and a overall feeling of wellness, During fasting the body’s healing process becomes more efficient, and so the body repairs any damaged cells during this stage, during this stage the colon, liver, kidney, lungs and skin are detoxing by eliminating toxins. Stage 4, during the last ten days of fasting, the body has become accustomed to the fasting process, your body becomes more energetic and you experience of improved memory and concentration, at this stage the organs are finishing up their healing process and once all toxics are removed the body is able to function at it’s maximum capacity. These are just SOME of the physical benefits of fasting that will take place in the body. But your good deeds you do this month will feel FAR better than anything you do this month! THE RAMADAN CHALLENGE!Now for those who are unaware, Every Ramadan, I give a Challenge to all the non Muslims and the Muslims during Ramadan, Last year was completely insane, More people partook than I had seen before. BUT I believe we can crush last year and absolutely destroy this years challenge.This year, I want you to1. Comment and ping someone and express your appreciation to them 2. Comment ONE THING you appreciate about lotc, be it the community, the friends you made or even lessons.The more you ping or the more your comment, the better!Remember even a SMILE is charity so is a good comment, So reap your first 70 times good deeds now!FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO PARTAKE THIS RAMADANNow This Ramadan, The Ramadan Discord will be held in the Qalasheen Discord, later tonight we will be finishing the Subsection of the Ramadan channel, in which muslims from LOTC or those who wish to learn or partake in the fasting will support one another and learn!
