O people !!! The shadows of a great blessed month !!!


Salman Al-Farisi reported: The Messenger of Allah (Salla Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam) delivered a sermon on the last day of Sha'ban, saying:

In it there is a night that is better than one thousand months.

Allah has made fasting obligatory during it, and night prayer (Tarawih) optional.

Whoever performs any good deed in it will obtain the reward of an obligatory act; and whoever performs an obligatory act of devotion will be rewarded seventy times more than in any other month.

It is the month of patience, and the reward of patience is Paradise. It is the month of rewards in which provision increases. Whoever provides food for a person to break his fast, his sins will be forgiven, and he will be saved from the Hellfire.

He will receive a reward similar to the one for whom he provided food, without diminishing anything from the reward of the former (one he fed)." The people said: Messenger of Allah! Not all of us are capable of providing food for fasting persons.

The Messenger (Salla Allahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said: "Allah will reward whoever provides food for a fasting person, even if it be some milk mixed with water, a date or a sip of water.

Whoever provides a drink to a fasting person, Allah will provide him a drink from my Haud (Font), and whoever drinks from my Haud, will never feel thirst thereafter until he enters Paradise".

So be well-prepared to fast in Ramadan and to perform supererogatory night prayer (Tarawih) during it and to compete in righteous deeds.

Open yourselves to the gifts of the Generous Lord during the days of Ramadan.

Perhaps an hour spent in pleasing Allah raises man to the status of the close servants of Allah.

Allah says which translates as: "That is the Grace of Allah, which He bestows on whom He wills. And Allah is the Owner of Mighty Grace".(Al-Juma'ah:4).

May Allah benefit us by the Qur'anic verses recited in the month of Ramadan.

I seek Allah's Forgiveness for you and I from all sins, so seek His forgiveness, that He may forgive you, for He is the Oft-Forgiving, the Most Merciful.
