Peace be with you.
We're welcoming the months of Ramadan and the
chronicles of this year
are going to be around the notion of,
repair.
And repair
is essential to the spiritual journey. Everything has
to do with the way we are going
to mend our,
and to change, to reform.
Islam enough to reform ourself in order to
get this inner peace and the peace with
God, the peace with our
family within the family
and beyond the family.
And we are going to talk about all
these dimensions,
meaning,
the intimate
dimension with our own self,
with our
family, with our neighbor, with the world.
And, it's
essential to understand in which way we have
to translate this. It has to do with
self compassion.
It has to do with self understanding.
It has to do with,
kindness and kindness towards oneself and kindness towards
the people around us.
And at the moment I'm talking to you
now, you know what is happening
in Gaza. You know what is happening in
Palestine. You know what is happening in the
West Bank. You know what is happening in
China,
in Congo,
around the world,
And we need to understand that
at our level, it starts with us, and
then we have to look at our neighborhood
and to look at the world because we
have to repair with our self in order
to repair the world. And this is what
he's expecting from us. And during the months
of Ramadan,
we're trying to repair
this intimate dimension
in order to be involved with the poor,
with the people who are suffering around us.
This is the very meaning of faith, and
this is what is expected
from us.
So every day, we are going to tackle
one dimension,
one
notion that is helping us to understand
this essential
notion of repair
from an Islamic viewpoint.
Don't forget to tell the people you love
that you love them. Life is fragile.
