How does it feel to start fasting again after a 5 year break as a Muslim mum? Ramadan 2024

[VeronikaEdali]

Diving back into fasting after a 5-year hiatus, I approached this Ramadan with a mix of excitement and nerves. 😄

The thought of not only fasting but also staying active felt overwhelming at first. Yet, as we cross the halfway mark, I’m amazed by the ease and peace I’ve found in this sacred month. 🌙 Alhamdulillah

My journey back to fasting taught me that our fears often don’t match up with reality. 😉

Through careful planning of my meals and hydration outside of fasting hours, this experience has been nothing short of incredible. 🌿

This Ramadan has been a reminder of the power of positive thinking and trust in Allah. It’s also shown me that returning to fasting, even after years, can be a journey filled with grace and growth.

I’ve even managed to maintain my pre-Iftar walks, Alhamdulillah. 💕

P.S. For these reflective walks, I’ve been loving my Virtue set from wommo.co - it’s been perfect for the breezy late afternoons. 🌸

Its pretty crazy how reverts are more knowledgeable and modest than most of us who were born muslim 😮

I thought I’d miss my first Ramadan after my baby (I only discovered I was pregnant on like the 5th of Shawwal last year!), but alhamdulillāh I actually have MORE MILK while fasting than before Ramadan! I honestly was like 80% sure I wouldn’t fast and I was so sad. She’s 3 months old and ma shaa Allaah she is our suhoor alarm clock lol ♥️

Ok..I am so ashamed as a born muslim when I see revert muslims not just being muslim but also studying Islam, learning Arabic n perfecting it to such extent that they become scholars n starting their own halal business to make it easy for muslims😢..I'm not saying y'al can't do it but the amount of dedication y'all have after spending half ur life as non muslim n starting everything from zero❤❤ May Allah bless n preserve all my revert bros n sis❤

Hey everyone! Jesus loves you guys so much! I’m a christian and i’d love to RESPECTFULLY share our beliefs.

I believe that Jesus died on the cross and rose again 3 days later! Thus defeating death. Making a way for us to be with Him for all eternity! If we choose Him.❤
