We fast for the sake of gaining Allah's satisfaction
The month of Ramadan 1443 AH is knocking on the door with the decade of mercy, forgiveness, and salvation. Insha'Allah, we will start fasting for the sake of gaining Allah's satisfaction.
While everyone around the world is busy with the message of the holy month of Ramadan, I greet my friends in front of the largest national mosque in Malaysia because I went for a walk with my friends a few days ago in front of the National Mosque of Malaysia and prayed there long before the holy month of Ramadan. Gathered much better I had a much better time with my friends and there I hope I was able to share my pictures and the words of my religious festival with you
The holy month of Ramadan comes with the added opportunity of uninterrupted worship for us. And by using this opportunity, the righteous servants of Allah explore how to attain nearness to Allah. Holy Ramadan is a month of great blessings and prayers.
In this holy Ramadan, the celebration of New Spring will take place in the spiritual garden of the believers. The hearts of the believers will be enlightened with the joy of Paradise. The holy servants of Allah know that in the first decade of Ramadan, He will soak them in the rain of mercy and quench their thirst. That is why the righteous servants of God never despair of His mercy and do not give up fast with the slightest excuse. In the Holy Qur'an, Allah says about the importance of Ramadan:
What is clear from this verse is that fasting as a religious ritual, i.e. fasting, was in all religions in one form or another. In most religions and in the lower, middle, and upper-class cultures, fasting is a generally prescribed practice. And where there is no such instruction, many people fast out of natural necessity.
What is known from the experience of the wise is that in order to attain spiritual advancement and purity of mind, it is absolutely necessary to sever some physical ties and to get some liberation from worldly attachments. However, Islam has imposed new forms, new meanings, and new spiritual significance on this fast.
Islam considers this fast of the holy month of Ramadan to be complete self-sacrifice. The one who observes fasting is the one who abstains only from food and drinks which protects the body; Not only that, but he also abstains from child-bearing and procreation activities and abstains from all sinful deeds.
Therefore, whoever fasts, he informs Allah Pak of his extraordinary sacrifice and his preparation and his heart also declare that I am fasting only in the hope of gaining the satisfaction of Allah Almighty.
His heart also says that since I am fasting for Allah and pledging to abstain from all kinds of sinful deeds, I will not hesitate to sacrifice everything for the sake of my Lord and Creator if necessary, even for my life.
Yet many of us are oblivious to this month's worship. Like other months, we spend this holy month in neglect. Those of us who have received this holy month is fortunate. Many may have hoped to get Ramadan but left for the land of no return before the arrival of Ramadan.
So we have to take full advantage of this holy month of Ramadan. We should all understand the greatness and importance of the holy month of Ramadan and benefit from it. It has been narrated in Hadith-
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, ‘Whoever fasts Ramadan with faith in the hope of reward and thus worships at night, all his previous sins will be forgiven.’ (Bukhari)
The dignity and honor of the fasting person are clearly stated in this hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
‘There is a door to a paradise called Ryan. The door will be locked after they enter. No one will be able to enter through this door except them. '(Bukhari)
We should all take full advantage of the welfare of Ramadan, and beautify ourselves with the benefits of Ramadan. It is as if the recitation of the Qur'an this Ramadan has become a buzz around us. As if the whole world is illuminated by the light of the Qur'an.
This supplication in the court of the great God, O God! Forgive us and be blessed with your mercy, forgiveness, and salvation in this holy Ramadan. Amen.
