Today is the 17th day of Ramadan and commemorates a famous battle that took place at Badr . This is a grand memory for a small band of brothers ( about 100) who stood against a mighty Quraish army from Mecca ...and held them back so that they could maintain the Medina fortress. There were many injuries on both sides but the Quraish returned home ..unable to defeat this small faithful band . I was fortunate enough to one day stand upon this soil's battleground at BAdr in Saudi Arabia and could sense the nobleness of the ground upon which I stood . Awesome HOPE for those of us still seeking HIS ways .
As this day falls to us in year 1430 AH , we can gain strength from the knowledge that it will be our truest FAITH that will keep us strong to weather any challenge we face . The patience to stand, defend , and gain insights into who we are ..within our CORE will give us abilities to manage our destinies .
