Night Of Fate (Ulqadir)



I have just woken up at 3 PM, I have slept from 6 this morning. Our mosque actually was really good at making a schedule for the night, and it sticked to it as well.

The night started with the usual ishaa2 then taraweeh. I prayed four rukaa2 taraweeh then ran off to the nearby falafel shop, to watch Bab il-Hara 2. But as it got too crowded, I had to wait for the break and then run to our house to continue watching. Luckily our house is quite close and I got there just before the adverts finished.

I found the house full of babies. About 5 babies were inside and it seemed my mum had offered to do the babysitting for all my aunties. So I had to continue watching Bad il-Hara while hearing screams of Leen and putting the always-awake Nadeen to sleep.

I ran back and continued a few rukaa3 of taraweeh so the total would become 8. After that I went to the falafel shop, which was now empty, to drink a bit of Pepsi to keep awake. I drank a bit too much and felt sick, but at least that kept me awake for a few hours.

And then I got terribly sleepy, and by the end of sohoor (which was horribly dry), I went back home to have my real suhoor and then went to sleep, waking up at 3PM. So, now that I have told you my night, what did you do in yours?
