Is anyone else experiencing unusual feelings this Ramadan?
Ramadan has always been - and still is - my favorite time of year. In recent years, especially last year Alhamdulillah, my Iman has reached high levels. But for some reason, this year feels different... Alhamdulillah I'm performing my five daily prayers, Taraweeh, and Tahajjud, but there's an emptiness this time. My soul feels exhausted, and there's a quiet sadness present. Typically during Ramadan, my soul feels so elevated and spiritually nourished... but there's a blockage this time. I don't understand why... I feel that what's been happening in the Middle East, the release of certain information, and particularly events of the past week have genuinely shifted the energy in our world (and not in a positive way). It truly reveals how dark our world has become and how morally compromised our leaders are. Is anyone else experiencing this, or is it just me?
