The attempt at flattening the curve of #COVID-19 is not going to be like eating Moi moi with Eko! The combination of Moi moi – a protein derivative from Beans – while Eko – a carbohydrates derivative from Corn is so simple that the toothless will not have issues eating it to fullness of tummy!

The complexity of managing COVID-19 is derived from the misconceived process of Faith development.

Everyone claim one Faith or the other. In fact everyone has a faith. How faithful are you to faith is one thing, while how true is the faith is another.

The Faith that makes one to be a Muslim are basic and are the basis of you being a practitioner of Islam.

As the world seamlessly enters into the month long Ramadan Fasting, the takeaways among many benefit is to examine your Faith, critique your faith, strengthen your faith in a manner that you or another member of the human populace will not be part of collateral damage to your Faith mismanagement.

Faith therefore is key in what you need to learn as we dovetail into the Fasting regime.

Faith is a belief in the Unseen. To be an effective Muslim your faith is expected to be strengthened moving forward.

The below six are what you need to belief in Islam failure of this takes you out of Islam.

Belief In:

Allah as the Creator of the heavens and the earth. Devoting worship solely to the Supreme Being

Angel as the bearer of message from the Supreme Being to humanity. They are not to be worshipped but that they are subservient to the Almighty

Messengers from Adam down the lane to Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus up to Muhammed were all sent as Prophets and Messengers including and among thousands of others.

Books revealed by Allah which is numbered to be five many of which have gone into extinction, some bastardised and corrupted while the Glorious Quran remains the Book outstanding 3 prostinely pure.

Destiny is what is bound to happen within the world of individual, group or Nations will happen as decreed by the Supreme Being.

Resurrection or Day of judgement is a day will come where all humanity and Gnomes will be called to account for the deeds while alive.

It does not matter whether the Community is cured of #COVID-19 for Ramadan to be Community based as we met it or, it has to be family member centred, the derivative of Ramadan program is the strengthening of the Faith while you keep yourself, family, community and the world free of #COVID-19.

You need to create an environment where the Curve is flattened and the virus fissile out by the Might of the Creator Allah s.w.t.
