Culture Unplugged Video - thank ur blessings!

Towards the end of the video, the poor dad reminds his kids to pray before they eat their 'food'. That made me think.. we get good and proper food everyday, each meal. We can choose what we would like to have. When i compare myself to those poor kids in the video, I tear. I feel very blessed, honestly. The deepest voice from my heart keeps repeating Alhamdullilah, alhamdullilah ...countless of it.

Ironically, what do we do before we start a meal? How often do we make sure that we say Bismillah (in the name of Allah) ? The dad in the video makes it a point to remind his children to thank God for the little food they have on their plates that day. And i am sure, God wil hear their prayers and bless them with more and better food each day. Inshallah, Ameen. How often do we, people who get good food, think of Allah before our meal n thank him? How many of us recite the surah before we have our meals. Inshallah, the next time i have my meal..together with Bismillah, i would take the effort to say a thanks to Allah for the food i have today. A thanks for the food my family has today. A thanks for the food my people are blessed with today.

Inshallah, may Allah forgive our sins and ignorance till this date. Bless us with what we need most in life, shelter,food and love. May He accept our thanks

Thank you Allah..for giving us this opportunity to learn about how blessed we actually are.
I'd like to remind you all of the surah to recire before having a meal. :)

Bismillahi wa 'aalai barakaathillahi.
In the name of Allah and upon the blessings of Allah.
