Letter to Julia 20120716

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

**It's still the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show marathon on Shadowplay TV**

Hi Julia, my beloved beautiful young bride!  How are you feeling?  I love you with all my heart!  The fasting month starts on Saturday the 21st of July.  ARE YOU READY TO ROCK??!!!  Well, I'm getting ready to fast.  I need to maintain my daily schedule as best as possible, plus there is an additional group prayer every night throughout Ramadan which I attend, insyaAllah.  Which means I don't have to do the hour's worship I do about 4am every morning throughout the rest of the year: I eat instead.  I plan to eat light or quickly for breaking fast, then pigging out in the wee hours of the morning.  Shadowplay TV will be going back to regular programming in less than a week, too.  But don't worry: I'll be seeing the fashion show whenever Allah takes over the randomizer and picks that show.  I'll get to see my sweetie!  Hi Sweetie!  Say, do those wings actually work?  I mean, if I wore those wings and then jumped into the Grand Canyon, would I die?  No, I don't wanna die like that!

But all joking aside, if you call yourself a believer, then Allah will test your faith.  That is as certain as death.  Do you believe?  Then Allah will test you.  Perfection is a reward in the next life.  What we can pray for is that Allah make our journey together an easy one.  Ya Allah, please grant Julia and I love, beauty, good health, safety and happiness together in this life as well as the hereafter. Please don't divorce us.  Please grant us long, happy, healthy lives together with beautiful, happy, healthy and pious children.  Please protect us.  Please forgive our sins, make us great Muslims, make us faithful to each other and to You, grant us the highest place in heaven, and make our journey together easy.
