2 | With the Muslim Holy month of Ramadan (month of fasting) fast approaching, Bahraini blogger Tawfeeq Al Rayash is hitting two birds with one stone. | Miaraka amin'ny volana masin'ny Ramadan silamo (volana fifadian-kanina) izay mihamanakaiky haingana dia haingana, ilay mpitoraka blaogy Bahraini Tawfeeq Al Rayash dia manenjika bitro roa. |
3 | He is fasting for three months and kicking off smoking after a wake up call from his daughter. | Mifady hanina mandritra ny telo volana izy ary miala amin'ny fifohana sigara taorian'ny antso fampahatsiarovan-tena avy amin'ny zanany vavy. |
4 | The blogger announces: | Manambara ilay mpitoraka blaogy: |
5 | I have decided to fast for three continuous months - Rajab, Sha'ban and Ramadan. | Nanapa-kevitra aho fa hifady hanina mandritra ny telo volana misesy - Rajab, Sha'ban ary Ramadan. |
6 | And this decision is not as a punishment or a penalty of atonement!! | Ary ity fanambaràna ity dia tsy sazy na fanonerana ny heloka vita!! |
7 | It is a wish I have had for years but circumstances were not right as my travels were an obstacle. | Faniriako efa hatry ny taona maro izao nefa tsy namela ahy nanao izany ny zava-nisy, sakana ho an'izany ireo fivezivezeko. |
8 | However, my fasting comes in the hottest and most humid months. | Na izany aza, amin'ny fotoana mafana sy mando indrindra ny fotoana ifadiako hanina. |
9 | May Allah give me patience! | Hanome faharetana ahy anie Allah! |
10 | Along with this decision, I have taken a major decision in my life and that is to give up smoking forever. | Miaraka amin'ity fanapahan-kevitra ity, naka fepetra lehibe iray amin'ny fiainako aho dia ny hanatsaharako ny fifohana sigara mandrakizay. |
11 | For those who do not know me, I have been a compulsive smoker (20 cigarettes a day) for the past 18 years and this means that my lungs are suffering | |
12 | Many pious Muslims fast for three months, including Ramadan, as an extra form of worship. Al Rayash also elaborates on his decision to stub it out by saying: | Ho an'ireo izay tsy mahalala ahy, mpifoka sigara mavitrika aho (sigara 20 isan'andro) nandritra ireo 18 taona farany teo ary midika izany fa mijaly ny avokavoko |
13 | I have decided to give up smoking out of concern that this habit gets transferred to the next generation. | Maro ireo Silamo mpanota no mifady hanina mandritra ny telo volana, anatin'izany ny Ramadan, ho endrika ivelany amin'ny fivavahana. |
14 | Don't forget me in your prayers. | I Al Rayash koa dia mamolavola ny fanapaha-kevitra hanatsaharana izany ary milaza hoe: |
