Tomorrow Ramadhan is coming again and we welcome it with Allahuakbar.....we must thank Allah that we are still alive and kicking and have another chance to be with this blessed month.... Ramadhan was the month in which the first verses of the holy Qur'an were revealed to Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). It is a time for inner reflection, devotion to God and self-control. For over one billion Muslims throughout the world, Ramadhan is a special month of the year. Ramadhan is the month of giving and mercy, and during this month Allah blesses the believers with forgiveness and great reward.
During this month, the gates of Paradise will be opened and the gates of Hellfire will be closed. The evil ones (Shaytan) will be handcuffed. In it there is one night, during which worship is better than worship in a thousand months. Whoever is denied its blessings has been denied the biggest blessing."
This is a time to stop and contemplate, to look inwards and out, it is a time to set our goals. We should ask ourselves what we want to achieve this month, - something we will carry into our futures.
Verses of Qur'an 2:183
Yaa aiyyuhal lazhi na aamanuu kutiba'alai kumussiaa mukamaa kutiba'alal lazhi namingqobb likum la'allakum tattaquun....
"O ye who believe! Fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that ye may (learn) self-restraint."
The messenger of Allah (pbuh) reported in a hadith al-Qudsi that Allah (SWT) said:
"All acts done by the sons of Adam are meant for him, except fasting. It is exclusively meant for Me, and I (alone) will reward him for it" (Bukhari and Muslim ).
"All acts done by the sons of Adam are meant for him, except fasting. It is exclusively meant for Me, and I (alone) will reward him for it" (Bukhari and Muslim ).
So let us take this great opportunity to make us a better person. Happy Ramadhan my friends.
