Ramadan Reflection 2025: A Personal and Intimate Connection with Allah









Oh, how beautiful Hablum minallah is—our bond with Allah, pure and unwavering.  

One thing I’ve deeply learned this Ramadan: Allah is never far; He is always near. No matter how far I may drift, His love never wavers—it always belongs to His creation. I may not be the most pious person, nor a scholar of faith, but I feel His love fully, without condition. He is the only One who accepts my flaws, who understands the depths of my heart without me needing to say a word.  


His love is beyond my comprehension.  


I used to feel so lost, so anxious about life’s uncertainties. But the more I seek to understand Him, the more I realize that His promises are clear and true. He asks His creation to be grateful, to surrender, to trust in Him. And in return, He grants peace—deep, undeniable peace.


And one of the most memorable experiences this Ramadan was my chance to itikaf. Spending the night in the mosque, surrounded by people with the same purpose—to draw closer to Allah—was truly peaceful. Being part of the itikaf congregation, feeling the collective devotion around me, made me even more eager to compete in worship.

There, in the stillness, I cry and plead for His forgiveness—because I know Him as Al-Ghaffar, the Most Forgiving.  


I pray for everything—anything that lingers in my heart, anything that weighs on me, anything that seems impossible. Yet I believe, with unwavering faith, that Allah is always listening, that He will guide me through every uncertainty.


My heart overflows with gratitude.  


Oh, how beautiful Hablum minallah—our connection with Allah. 


Ramadan holds such a personal meaning for me, a time of renewal and closeness to Him. I pray that I am granted His forgiveness, and that I may meet the next Ramadan with a heart unburdened and a soul at peace.

After the days full of storm

The storm has raged for many days, battering us with its relentless winds and waves. But now, let us pause—take a moment to rest and thank God for seeing us through. We’re still here, still standing strong, still holding on. The storm could not tear us apart, and for that, I am deeply grateful. I thank God for everything—for the chance to walk this ferocious road together, hand in hand. Our ship still sails, though battered, refusing to sink.     Compromise—this is what we’ve learned and continue to learn. It’s not easy, but we try, recognizing that we are only human, prone to mistakes and imperfections. We’ve seen each other’s flaws, yet we choose to stay, to keep learning and growing together.   It’s through compromise, honest communication, and keeping a cool head that we’ve found ways to rethink our own inclinations. We’ve carried scars, both old and new, but we’re committed to healing them. Healing is not a destination but a journey, and as we walk this path, we...

Supernova

  Million bulbs in the void, bursts into a piece as its light disperse, like a supernova, we dwell in the fading light, fight against gravity and grow red, restart, become blue with fury, sedated by dark, concourse into the blackhole, turning it into a singularity, succumbing to the demise, reconciled with eternity. We were once scintilation, before we collapse into one, so what are we now? -vic

Rangkuman Isi Kepala 7 Hari: Menuju Hidup Sebaik-Baiknya

Hari ke-1 Malam ini aku benar-benar tidak tenang. Tubuhku lelah sekali, tapi kepalaku berisik. Untungnya kucingku juga berisik, jadi suara di kepalaku sedikitnya bisa teredam oleh suara si Butek. Jadi, setelah merayu Tuhanku sejak 3 pagi hingga dini hari, aku memutuskan untuk melihat langit. Melihat langit entah mengapa selalu menenangkan, membiarkan diriku melihat dunia dari perspektif kosmik, membuat isi kepalaku rasanya kecil sekali. Bulan ada di fase waning crescent 1% malam ini dan langit lagi cloudy. Tidak terlihat bulan atau bintang, bahkan si bintang fajar aka Venus tidak tampak. Tapi tidak apa, langit tak selalu biru atau berbintang kan? Sobat tengah malamku yang sempat menghilang seminggu ((alhamdulillah)) sudah balik. Seperti biasa, kita diskusi kehidupan yang selalu tidak adil, sampai kabar Haruki Murakami yang mau rilis buku November nanti. Bagaimanapun, itu ikut andil menghilangkan berisik di kepalaku.  Angin sama sekali tidak berhembus. Pagi yang datar. Kemudian aku ...
