Preparations for Ramadhan
Are we mentally and physically prepared for the holy month of Ramadhan? The blessed month starts soon, with the first fast being on August 22nd inshaAllah.
Let us work on our prayer schedules, if work schedules need adjusting, it might be a good idea to make arrangements with employer starting right now.
These tips maybe of help in preparing for the Holy month of Ramadhan:
Quote:
1. We should empower ourselves by learning as much as we can about the precise laws as well as the benefits of fasting.
2. We should ensure that we gain true benefits from our fasting, let us make sure to realize the spirit of fasting: this can only be done by abstaining, not only from food, drink, and sex, but also by strictly restraining our minds, hearts as well as our eyes, ears, hands, tongue, and so on.
3.We must embrace the spirit of fasting as stressed in Hadith: to be charitable and compassionate as much as we can.
4. We should strengthen our relationship with the Qur’an; for Ramadan is the month of the Qur’an.
5. We should engage in dhikr and condition ourselves to make it second nature.
6. Last but not least, we should build up our community through acts of charity and compassion and extending help to those in need as much as we can.
Let us pray that we come out of Ramadan with our faith recharged, gaining strength in our faith and commitment and relationship with Allah.
