I am happy that my birthday was on October 6, 1974 AD, corresponding to Ramadan 19, 1394 AH.
It coincided with the anniversary of the October War victory and the fasting month of Ramadan.

Today I have completed forty years, which is the age mentioned in the Holy Quran, along with a supplication upon reaching this age.

We call upon God Almighty with the supplication mentioned in the Qur’an

“My Lord, enable me to be grateful for Your favor which You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents and to do righteousness of which You approve. And make righteous for me my offspring. Indeed, I have repented to You, and indeed, I am of the Muslims.”

A lot of my life has passed and there is little left, so please pray for me to have a good ending.

I thank everyone who congratulated me on my birthday. Happy birthday.
