Social media users saw a heartwarming event in a video that showed the tenacity and commitment of a Muslim woman known only as Alhaja.
She fainted on a busy roadway, her resolve to observe Ramadan fasting unwavering even in trying times. Alhaja politely declined a well-meaning bystander’s offer of a malt drink to help her, citing her commitment to religion.
A bystander’s camera captured the momentous collapse of Alhaja, causing anxious bystanders to rush to her aid. They rushed to her aid and used a variety of techniques, such as lightly misting her face with water, to jolt her out of her stupor.
A kind person held out a malt drink as the incident happened, maybe hoping to console the victim.
Nevertheless, despite the incessant entreaties and support from people around her, Alhaja stayed firm in her denial and unyielding in her dedication to her fast.
The incident ignited a flurry of reactions across social media platforms, with individuals sharing their thoughts and perspectives.
Among them, some praised Alhaja’s steadfast dedication to her faith, commending her resolve in the face of adversity. Others, however, expressed concerns about her well-being and questioned the depth of her understanding regarding her religious obligations.
In the comment section of the post on social media, a range of opinions emerged. Abdul chuckled, remarking, “I returned back to the gym last 2 weeks during Ramadan after some years I left gym in London I almost died and just lying down in the gym but after some minute I was ok and didn’t still break my fast.”
Meanwhile, Ashabi voiced skepticism, stating, “Make I cut my fasting for 6:00 ehn ehn .. 😂Abi she don drink an ..Ona no see say na evening ni.”
Abas Abidemi said, “She doesn’t understand the religion she’s practicing, if she go kpai like that, she get question to answer, she go explain why she no save herself in.”
