Ramadhan al-Mubarak

Dear muslims,do you know what is Ramadhan?

And do you know that the non muslims basically know what are the rules of Ramadhan?

As you are the muslims, do you know why do u need to fast?

Ramdhan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. It is the Islamic month of fasting, in which participating Muslims refrain from eating, drinking, sexual conduct, smoking, and indulging in anything that is in excess or ill-natured; from dawn until sunset.

Fasting is meant to teach the Muslim patience, modesty and spirituality. Ramaḍān is a time to fast for the sake of Allah, and to offer more prayer than usual. Muslims also believed through good actions, they get rewarded seventy times as much as they normally can achieve.

During Ramaḍān, Muslims ask forgiveness for past sins, pray for guidance and help in refraining from everyday evils, and try to purify themselves through self-restraint and good deeds. As compared to solar calendar, the dates of Ramadan vary, moving forward about ten days each year.

The last ten days of Ramadan are the time of special spiritual power as everyone try to come closer to God through devotions and good deeds. The night on which the Quran was revealed to the Prophet, known as the Night of Power (Lailat ul-Qadr). The Quran states that this night is better than a thousand months. Therefore many Muslims spend the entire night in prayer.

To all readers,

Make use of the Ramadhan and do not just pray for the sake of LailatulQadr but for the sake of ALLAH s.w.t.

May the devine blessing of allah fill your life with peace and happiness. Aminnn

Love,
