Alkisah di Klinik Tulang 4.0
Kisah 1
3rd day of Ramadhan. Clinic day! morning and evening. It was during a lunch break. And it was happened to be I was waiting for other doc to wrap up the morning session. There were a nurse, a muslim doc and I.
Nurse: Are you guys going for lunch?
Me: Nope. this is fasting month
Nurse: ouh is it already fasting month?, so at what time you can eat? *typical question. hehe*
Doc: around 10 pm
Nurse: and at what time you start fasting?
Doc: 3am
Nurse: oh, no! how you can survive that, and look at you *pointing at me* already skinny. and you too doctor, *calling other nurse* we need to ask Catholic to fast too!
Me: I though you have fasting in your religion. pancake or good friday something like that?
Nurse: I am not that religious. *lols*
Lols.

Kisah 2
Again during lunch break but different nurse, different doc this time. (1 muslim doc, 2 non-muslim doc which one of them I was mistakenly thought he was a muslim. lols. kelakar je bila tengok dia minum coffee dekat klinik. almost nak tegor. conclusion: not all indian doctors are muslims, dear. hehe)
Nurse: Enjoy your lunch!
Doc: We are fasting.
Nurse: ouh, I am sorry! at what time you start your fasting and what time you can eat? *see, told you, typical question. hehe*
Doc: start at 3am and we can eat at around 10pm
Nurse: oh my god! how do you do that? you are sooo strong and look *pointing at me* you are even smiling!
Me: *memang kerja aku senyum je la. budak-budak katakan. lols*
Doc: she is very strong. always full of energy. *double grin. well, doc. senyum tuh kan sedekah* Look, it is not that difficult to fast here. It is colder here than back home. We feel less thirsty.
Agree. Just keep yourself busy so, you will not have time to layan your tummy even you are fasting for 19 hours.
Kisah 3
Operation day! After done with the operations, I met my consultant surgeon to discuss things at a CORRIDOR and then came his doc, another Muslim doc interrupt the discussion and suddenly we talked about fasting.
Consultant: so, at what time you can eat?
Doc: around 10pm
Consultant: thats late. Thats the thing I can't accept. Because you are going to sleep after that.
Doc: No, we perform prayers first and then we sleep
Consultant: How long you pray?
Doc: around half an hour to one hour
Consultant: Thats quite long. so, Where do you break your fast?
Doc: at home, but sometimes we do it together at the mosque
Consultant: Is it big?
Doc: just a small house
Consultant: well, I can give you a key to my sports clinic. We have kitchen there and it is spacious you know.
Me; *woooow! baiknya consultant aku ni*
Doc: its ok. sometimes we use football club as well. You know fasting is good for your health. You should try.
Consultant: Yes, I know fasting is good. I used to fast, 2 days every week. but I miss my coffee a lott. *big smile. hehe* anyway, I heard some people during Ramadhan gain weight. *double jerk face*
Doc and I: hahaha *golek-golek*
Doc; Well, thats because they eat too much during break fast.

to tell the truth, it was a very long conversation about fasting. I just wrote the interesting part. Overall, I was soo amazed with the Muslim doc. He can say about fasting soooo smoothly and manage to lead the conversation without worry, in fact he offer the consultant to fast too. a.k.a doing da'wah. Is not that cool?
Overall, it is indeed very challenging to fast in a Non-Muslims Majority country where people are eating everywhere. It is a huge temptation. Plus, it is summer and we fast for almost 19 hours everyday. Fasting is not just about food, it is more than that, it is about trying to become a better person, a turning point in life, it is about preparation for another 11 months, it is about share the hunger of the poor, it is about His Mercy, His Love.
O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous - 2;183
to become a righteous. Ameen!
side note: interesting about this ayah - Allah said "La'alakum" it means MAY. He didn't state DEFINITELY you will become a righteous, not everyone will 'graduate' from this 'school of Ramadhan" as a righteous. So, lets work hard to become one! Ref: Ustaz Hasrizal saifulislam
May this month be a good occasion that brings us all close to the God Almighty. may Allah guide us to what pleases Him and benefits us. May Allah guide the Muslims and bring us together and protect us from temptation and division. May He protect the Muslim ummah (nation) from the fitnah. May He keep us on the straight path. Ameen!
