Ramadhan – A Season for Muslims
Ramadhan is the month when a muslim can maximize his/her benefits Good deeds Barakath Blessings of Allah Mercy of Allah Pleasing your creator Getting closer to Quran
Our state after Ramadhan
Post Eid, there is no change in our state Punctuality of salat Pondering over Quran Helping the needy Closeness to Allah
Ponder Over
Do you want this Ramadhan to be the same again?
Or do you want this Ramadhan to be a turning point in your life?
I.OVERCOMING WEAKNESS Khamiyon ko door karna
Everyone has weaknesses except the prophets
First step to get rid of weakness is acknowledge the weakness
Second, identify the weakness Next, resolve to correct it
Hadees
Fasting is a shield with which a servant protects himself from the Fire No fighting, No abuses, no gossip, no
filth If anyone fights, reply - “I am fasting”
Hadees
Anyone who fasts and does not stop lying, it is mere hunger and thirst
Allah is least interested in such a fast
Hadees
Anyone who fasts with the intention of showing off is committing shirk
Anyone who prays with the intention of showing off is committing shirk
Anyone who gives charity with the intention of showing off (Riya) is committing shirk
Some common weaknesses to watch/ Take note of and overcome
Punctuality with salat Watching TV/Movies Indecent novels/Porno site & magazines Gossip Backbiting/Geebath Abusing children Quarrel with spouses Extravaganza Miserliness/Bukhl Unfriendly behavior with neighbors Lowering your gaze
II.IMPROVE STRENGTHS Khoobiyon mein izafa
Why strengthen your character?
Physical beauty fades with age A beautiful mind always lasts Good character always carries weight
Hadees
Woe to the person who got the month of Ramadhan and did not benefit from the month
Identifying and improving strengths
First, focus is on those activities which we think we are already doing well. Performing salat, but not on time Performing 5 times salat on time but no
tahajjud Reading Quran, but not pondering Memorizing duas- we don’t know
Points to improve
Punctuality in Salat Memorizing Quran Memorizing duas Zikr Become an effective Daee
Meet and talk people Develop the Art of communication Read more literature
III.HELPING THE NEEDY Mawasaath
Urdu CoupletsDard e dil ke liye paida kiya insaan
ko, warna ta’ath ke liye kuch kam na the karrobiyaan(angels)
Insaan insaan ka dard na samjhe, phir wo insaan nahi hai
Hadees
Ramadhan is also an known as “Shaharul Mawasaath”-a month to sympathize with the needy and poor.
If you serve the needy, you will find Allah
If you feed a fasting person, Allah promises Jannah
Verse from the Quran- Al Balad
And what do you know what the steep pass is?
It is the freeing of a neck from bondage, or the feeding in a day of hunger of a nearly related orphan, or a poor man lying in the dust
Wisdom behind fasting
By being hungry, you realize what a hungry person feels like.
Jeffery Lang story:A starving Sudanese child being stalked by a vulture
My Mawasaath plan for this Ramadhan
I will give 10 pairs of old and used clothes to the needy
I will buy new pair of clothes to my poor cousin/uncle
I will arrange provisions for sehri and iftar of three persons or a family
I will contribute to a group iftar/sahr I will give 5000/- for the poor and needy in
addition to zakath I will send an iftar meal to one of
neighbors everyday
IV.DAWAH ACTIVITIES Tehriki sargarmiyan
Dawah is obligatory not an option!!! Ramadhan is a month when muslims in
particular are inclined towards change. (They pay attention)
Ramadhan provides an opportunity to initiate a dialogue with non Muslim brethren in the form of iftar parties
Dawah to muslims
Stress on reading Quran with meaning Zakath towards establishment of Deen in
addition to helping needy Explain the real meaning of taqwa Never get trapped in fiqh issues like 8/20
rakats, sahr timings, moon sightings
Dawah to Non muslims
Significance of Ramzan Islamic fasting Quran
My plan for dawah activities
I will distribute 10 booklets on significance of Quran to friends
I will distribute 25 booklets on philosophy of fasting to my relatives
I will invite and take two of my colleagues for a daily dars program
I will sponsor student/study circle iftar party
Contd
I will establish a Quran study circle among ladies at home
I will distribute 50 folders on the subject of zakat and collect atleast 10000/- for dawah/service activities
I will invite 4 non muslim friends at home for iftar
I will gift 4 CD sets of Quran to my close friends
V.DUA - Last but not the least!!!
Dua changes destiny Dua is nucleus of ibadath Dua is an expression of submission to Allah Dua removes dependency Dua is surrendering before Allah Dua brings peace, contentment, tranquility Dua makes difficult tasks easier Dua brings people closer
Contd..
Dua makes Allah happy Dua softens heart Dua is sunnah of all prophets Every thing in the universe supplicates before Allah Dua removes worries Dua is remembrance of Allah Dua gives you inner strengths Dua gives you an opportunity to share with Allah
which you cannot share with anyone else Dua is momin’s weapon
But do we plan our duas?
How can we plan our duas List down 60 needs covering 30
sahr and 30 iftars Plan to spend 10 minutes during
Sahr and 10 mins during iftar and take up one need specifically in one session
My list of duas
Put me on the righteous path Increase my attachment with Quran Increase love and affection towards my
spouse Cure my son’s chronic illness Solve my daughter’s learning problem Help me control my anger Increase blessings in my provision Provide me a house Provide me a vehicle Invite me for hajj
Contd..
Establish love with my brother… Fulfil the need of my uncle… Help me get rid of smoking Praise Allah Pray for good health Pray for old age Pray for grave Pray for akhirah
Cont..
rabbi zidnee ilmaa Allahumma a'inni ala dhikrika,wa shukrika wa husni
iibaad-at'ika Allahumma inni auzoo bika minal-hammi-wal hazan.
ajzi-wal-kasal. jubni wal bukhl. ghalabatid-dayni-wa qahrir rijal.
Allaahummaa innee as'alukal-hudaa wat-tuqaa wal-`afaafa wal-ghinaa
Hadith – Ramadhan, a month of making duas
Allah is embarrassed to reject a dua of a fasting person
Allah descends down the skies and announces at the time of sahr “Is there anyone who wants his needs
fulfilled and I will fulfill it.” Duas for taaq raat
Allahumma Ajirni minannaar Allahumma innaka affuwwun…
