For more than five months, Gaza has been experiencing carnage, disease, hunger, displacement, expulsion and thirst. I was looking forward to Ramadan in the positive hope that this holy month will come in a different way than the previous ones and bring joy. But when the month of Ramadan came, nothing changed. The situation remained the same. Atrocities and oppressions still continue. The story of Ghoda Alhaddad from Gaza.
Fasting is a work between the servant and Allah. While the angels record the rewards of other deeds, it is up to God to write down the reward of fasting. That is probably why fasting embodies endless wisdom. We bring to your attention some more of such wisdom.
Every prayer has theoretical and practical aspects. Children need both knowledge and observation. We either give our child only knowledge and forget to set an example ourselves, or we do our prayers ourselves and make a mistake in giving knowledge that satisfies the child's interests in this regard. As for fasting, we should teach our children about it before Ramadan comes.
"Everything is known when the test comes - both friendship and love. Until the test, everyone praises their love and friendship..."
According to Sufism scholars, there are three types of fasting: the fasting of the masses, the fasting of the special people, and the fasting of the most special people. What is the difference between them?
One of the summer nights. I woke up from a faint sound. Our neighbor, Uncle Husan, would wake everyone up by hitting the tin with something. The sweet smell of food hit my nose. My sisters were busy trying to do something in the kitchen, setting the table. I jumped up and thought, "I will fast too." When my mother saw this, she kissed my cheeks and said: "Allah gives many rewards to children who fast."
Allah, the Exalted, said that He made fasting obligatory for the previous ummahs in the Holy Qur'an, and He also made it obligatory for this Ummah Muhammadiyya, and at the end of the verse, he emphasized that you will surely be pious. Due to fasting, a person's ability to feel that he is seeing his Lord, and the feeling of fearing him, increases even more. By fasting, the servant submits to his Lord and obeys his command as "labbay".
The cause of most diseases today...is that people don't feel hungry! It is more dangerous for humans than environmental problems from long-term satiety (resulting in excess weight, not obesity).
Duas can be made at any time during the month of Ramadan and Allah Ta'ala will accept them. However, there are times in this month, when prayers are addressed to the Creator, the probability of receiving prayers increases.
The blessed month of Ramadan is the best month of the year in the sight of Allah Almighty. This month is the season for Muslims to increase their virtues and merits. What are the best actions to take advantage of this month to get more rewards?
