Suggestion box for Ramadan

[جوري]

Last year was such a success Masha'Allah, one of the best Ramadan's I had the pleasure of enjoying as well the sweet company of different Muslims here, of course everyone's home recipes and Ramadan diaries was such a delight to read.. I suggest we continue that same tradition this year and again close those sections that contribute nothing and/or add to ones sins by way of engaging in vain discourse ..

This year we have quite a few converts and I'll be curious to their experience and hope the rest of us can give them support and encouragement in any way we can..

Thank you

Good suggestion, sister! Insha'Allah, this year Ramadhan will be successful!

Keep praying, keep to recite duas and make LI Forum to be more successful, Insha'Allah! :D

lol ukhty

1- we closed off world's affairs forum and Halal fun
2- everyone posted pictures of the iftar they had that day
3-some wrote stories about Ramadan in their region, many shared the preperation their town makes to welcome ramadan like the huge displays of lanterns
4- Many wrote of what they did for that day of fast and it was encouraging and very pleasing to read..
Any other suggestions would be great but I much enjoyed those and was hoping we'd make it a tradition?

good idea

[crayon]

Ooh sounds good! It's going to be my first ramadan here on LI inshallah, i'm sure it'll be very interesting and beneficial.

I think Halal fun should be closed again..
I love the "post your iftar" thread idea.
I'd definitely write in the "ramadan diary".

None of those are new, lol, but I'll try to think of something, edit it in when i do inshallah.

[Re.TiReD]

:salamext:

We should close halal fun and world affairs as before, have a thread to share our experiences and any difficulties we may be facing or maybe that new muslims may be facing. Post up recipes :thumbs_up BUT most importantly I think we should ban all brothers from LI at taraweeh time! *grin* .....*runs away as fast as she can*.... Lol but actually thats wouldnt work since we have members from different countries and their times would be diff...

I'm good with everything else. I'll be super happy to post my meals this year as I won't be eating alone all the time like last year. :D

It is a month of reclamation, regeneration, reverence, forgiveness, kinship and renewal, I can't imagine anything else taking precedents over it.. at least such wouldn't be amongst Muslims if they wish to enjoy it for what it is and what it means?

Hmmm, ok, fair enough, but what about really happy stories concerning all the things you mentioned above? Or is there a special thread that will be created just about these positive things (sorry, my mind is a bit of a blur re:what was done last year)?

Thanks for taking the time to read and reply.

[crayon]

OH WAIT, omg!! I'm going to be in Syria this Ramadan!! I forgot! Woooo!! It will be my first one ever, can't wait to see what it will be like. I'll definitely post pictures of whatever "ramadany" things I find.

YAY!:D

Thank you for all who have replied,.. Insha'Allah I'll pass our reps once I get my rep-ability back..

I don't know if you'll believe me if I told you but spending Ramadan with you last year was the closest I had to being in my home country when I was a little girl and it was peak time, i.e before most of my extended and beloved family members were committed to the ground imsad...

Thank youl.. you warm my heart..

:w:

[Na7lah]

i love the spirit we have here in Ramadhan :D last year the forum waz like dead and Ramadan came "everyone litteraly just woke up" the whole forum was bubbling busy lol i just caaaaaaant wait!

[Uthman]

Great suggestion! I don't think I was around here for Ramadhan last year, since I don't remember all this happening. Still, it's a good idea, since we should all strive to obtain the maximum benefit out of Ramadhan as we possibly can. That includes blocking out everything that could hinder us from obtaining this benefit.

[FatimaAsSideqah]

As Salaam Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu

In the month of Ramadhan it is very important that we spent a few moments to understand some of the wisdoms and lessons that we can learn from this month of fasting.

The Prophet (PBUH) said, " Those of you who will live after me will see many differences. Then you must cling to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly guided khaleefahs. Hold fast to it and stick to it." (Abu Dawood)

Insha'Allah, in this month we LI Members sense that there is a possibility for unity, because we all fast together, we break fast together, we all worship Allah Taala together, and we pray Salaatul-`Eid together. Therefore we sense that the unity of Muslims is possible. It is possible for Muslims to be a single body, but this will only be achieved when obedience is only to Allah Taala and His Messenger.

[MaiCarInMtl]

It's your second year?

Yes, last year I decided to try out the fasting for the month, just to see what the experience is like. I knew a few muslims and wanted to know what it was like physically to go through the fasting (I always like to see what people go through, it expands my frame of reference, etc). I was also looking more and more into Islam so I decided the time was right. I also told God to make this as easy as possible if this is what he wanted me to do. The first 2-3 days were harder simply because my system was adjusting but everything went really well! I got so much out of it (spiritually, mentally, physically, etc) that I decided to make it a yearly thing.

This year though, it might be more religious and hopefully more of an interactive Ramadan.

Sorry, I rambled on didn't I? Sorry.

[Na7lah]

mashallah ^

there arent many nonmuslims who would actually try the idea of fasting for a whole month, respect ya 4 real I pray that Allah guides u to the straight path :)

Last Ramadan we had a 'Putting peace into practice this Ramadan' thread in the Mixed Female Forum.

How about, here in the Mixed Female Section, we plan to make a gesture of peace and friendship to somebody every day?
Perhaps you think that you do that anyway ...
How about we agree to do a good deed every day specifically to somebody who does not belong to our own religious group?
How about we agree to make dua for peace between our faiths and for world peace in general daily?

I thought it was a very worthwhile thread, and I gained much from it. :)
Perhaps we can extend it to the public forums this year?

I think it would be great if it were added to the public forums so then everyone can add things in. I already have an idea or two of what I want to do, one of which is... Make blackbean brownies for my coworkers! It sounds nasty but they are actually amazing and really healthy!

Black bean brownies certainly sound unusual! Can you share the recipe?

[MaiCarInMtl]

Black bean brownies certainly sound unusual! Can you share the recipe?

As soon as I locate the recipe in my giant recipe stash I'll send it over to you (I just don't know where people can post recipes on this site). I'll probably be sending you the recipe before the weekend as I think I will make a batch for halaqa this weekend.

If I end up making a batch during Ramadan, I will take a pic and put up the recipe with it in the food thread - then everyone can have access to it. :statisfie

Hold on, is there a general recipes thread somewhere?

[aamirsaab]

....
Hold on, is there a general recipes thread somewhere?

Your wish is my command:

[manaal]

I want to suggest, that we Muslims should focus less on food and more on the faith during Ramadan! have you seen how people rush to the stores close upon Ramdan to stock up all the goodies?

On a different note,
Did you know that by reciting 4 pages (5 for women, you know why) of the Quran after each Salat, one can complete reciting it within a month? Each of should try to do this.

[جوري]

you can always read digital Quran on your (you know why days) and be up to the same speed.. but what a great idea about less food...seriousely Ramadan in some 'Muslims countries' like Egypt for instance is more of thousand innovation than religious experience.. stuffed with food and ridiculous massive amount of soaps.. sobhan Allah

:w:

[Khayal]

:sl:
Good Idea! :)

I don't have much to say, as everybody has said everything... I am anxiously waiting for ramadan.

:w:

:w:

By soaps, do you mean day-time soaps on tv?
:confused:

Anyway, that's another thing, the TV should be SWITCHED OFF permenantly during Ramadan. It won't kill you to miss your favourite shows for a month. I've tried it and I'm still alive.

[julie sarri]

yes we should try and cut down on tv and should even try after Ramadan to cut back as well as there is nothing beifiting from tv well apart from peace tv

[Uthman]

:sl:

yes we should try and cut down on tv and should even try after Ramadan to cut back as well as there is nothing beifiting from tv well apart from peace tv

And Islam Channel, right?

:w:

[manaal]

^ Sorry bro Osman, but IMO Islam Channel is a bit boring compared to Peace TV. But let's get into a debate about that.

Sis Julie Sarri thanks for pointing out that there are beneficial things to watch on tv thanks to the Islamic Channels, Alhamdulillah. we should definitely watch more of that and increase out knowledge of the Dheen.

Ramadhan is a Blessing to sent to us by Allah to train ourselves to be better Human Beings and Better Muslims. Insha Allah, we should all take advantage of this and continue our good habits after Ramadhan as well.

[Fishman]

But what if something big happens?

:sl:
Don't worry, if anything big happened outside of Ramadan there wouldn't be any coverage anyway. Even major war declarations, governments of western countries collapsing etc. Begium collapsed a few weeks back and there wasn't a single thread about it!

Where else may I find intelligent debate about topics?!

We have intelligent debate here?


I think they should close the whole site except for Ramadan sections.
:w:

[BlackMamba]

I agree with you all about the whole tv thing the only tv I'll be wathcing in Ramadan is taraweeh from Makkah. And just outta curiousity, do you guys lose weight, stay the same, or gain weigt(yes many ppl do) in Ramadan? I usually stay the same I might lose a few lbs some years.

[Na7lah]

stay the same ^

bout three more weeks :( why oh why is time takin sooo long :(

[MaiCarInMtl]

I want to suggest, that we Muslims should focus less on food and more on the faith during Ramadan! have you seen how people rush to the stores close upon Ramdan to stock up all the goodies?

Sorry, I don't mean to discuss food mainly, but I am a foody and I am excited that I will not be eating alone so much this year, also I will be cooking for others most of the time so I do want to plan nutritious meals that are balanced, yummy but not overstuffing.


Fishman: Belgium collapsed? Perhaps I heard soemthing but I don't even recall this, and I listen to talk radio all day and download news podcasts (granted, I only started downloading them 10 days ago though)...

Aamirsaab: than you for the recipe thread link! Mucha ppreciated!

[Fishman]

:sl:
Yes, the Belgian government collapsed about a month or so ago. There was speculation about it breaking up.
:w:

[Danah]

Actually I am very exited to see how the beginning of next Ramadhan will look like in LI since I have joined the forum on the end of the last Ramadhan
in sha allah every one will get benefit
May Allah accept our ibadat in this Ramadhan ....Ameen

[Danah]

I just came up with this idea this morning:)
Why we dont organize a Quran competition for how many times we recite the whole Quran in Ramadhan
I think this will create competition among the members to read more in the holy month

[muslimma]

dpends^

it may alter peoples niyaa for reading..:S

[BlackMamba]

Ya but if you do a competition people will just start reading for winning. They'll start reading without meaning, without tajweed, and without memoizing. It is better to read it once but actually read and gain some knowledge.

[Danah]

actually it will depend on everyone's niya, but it will be a good chance for those who find themselves lazy to read, this will excite them to read when they see everyone excited to that
My point is to compete in Khair and righteousness, PS we cant ask everyone to make sure that they are really reading Quran properly

22 - Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss:23 - On Thrones (of Dignity) will they command a sight (of all things):24 - Thou wilt recognize in their Faces the beaming brightness of Bliss.25 - Their thirst will be slaked with Pure Wine sealed:26 - The seal thereof will be musk: and for this let those aspire, who have aspirations:
(38:22-26 )

[manaal]

^ Or instead of having a competition, it could be a "Qur'an Diary", where members post how much they managed to recite that day, and how they are progressing?

But first we have to make sure that it's ok in Islam to do so. Is there a Hadeeth or Quranic Ayath about not showing off how religious you are?

[جوري]

I think there are places where you can showcompetition , one is in religiosity, and the other in acquisition of useful knowledge.. I am not sure about the third..we are talking healthy competition of course not the sort mean to disparage or humiliate..

and Allah knows best

:w:

[crayon]

I personally wouldn't participate in that, riyaa' is just too big of a deal, i'd rather not have to worry about my intention of doing things. Other people may feel differently, though.

[crayon]

Posted this in the other thread (http://www.islamicboard.com/puzzles-humour/134269966-halal-haram-quiz.html ), but thought I'd post here as well:

"Before this thread gets shut down, let me just say that this was actually a really cool idea... Maybe we could do a daily/weekly thing like this for ramadan? But with answers that are more difficult, and that require a bit of research? I don't think I will have time to doorganize it, but if anyone is willing I'm sure it would be very beneficial for all of us, muslims and non muslims alike. Maybe 5 questions or so every quiz? And a scoreboard or something so there can be one final winner at the end of the month? I'd so participate!!"

[Danah]

I am not sure about this but showing what you are doing is sometimes good, becuase by doing so you are encouraging the other to do even more than you
but if the intent of showing is just to let the people know how much you are religious is definitely haram and its called (rya'a)

[glo]

Another Ramadan suggestion:

For those members who don't own a copy of the Qu'ran, how about a thread for a daily reading of the Qu'ran?
Possibly enough to read through the whole Qu'ran in the period of Ramadan?

[BlackMamba]

If u don't own a Quran then go to quranflash.com it's the coolest sight ever. It's like a virtual Quran, you can even turn the pages lol

[glo]

I know I can, Shakoor.
I was just wondering if it was a beneficial Ramadan exercise to 'read the Qu'ran together', if you see what I mean ...

[H4RUN]

I think you should deliver dates to all the members :D:D i'd be making a few more accounts :D:D:D:D

World affairs will probably be closed. Don't know bout the rest. Maybe comparative religion.

Heck, maybe we'll close the entire forum, lol.

can't wait :D

loool at Aamirsaab :D

I think you should close the whole general sections except advice and General
,General and Ramadan would be the main Section For us , dunno

[جوري]

I think the sections that allow for heated arguments are the only ones that should be closed.. mainly comparative, refutations, world affairs and the 'fun section'.. other than that, everyone will have health issues, or emotional issues, or learning issues, or multimedia issues.. I don't see why at all they should be closed.. but that is just my opinion..
plus where else can we talk of 'ramdanyat' or ramadan diaries, except under general?

:w:

:w:

[Güven]

yep thats what I meant ,
general should be our Main Section , Soo more people could joining us

Who's going to bell the cat then? We've got all these suggestions for new threads, who's going to do it? Will the suggester be the thread starter?

[Muhammad]

:sl:

I'm not too keen on the idea of seeing who can recite the Qur'an the most number of times, as this is likely to cause people to focus more on finishing the Qur'an than actually reflecting over it and may cause them to neglect reading it in its proper manner.

About the daily reading one, perhaps more detail can be given about what is meant? Whatever action we do undertake, let us remember to be cautious that we do not contradict the authentic sunnah Insha'Allaah.

Have any decisions been made by the mods with regards to forum sections being closed during Ramadan?

Most likely, it will be World Affairs, Comparative Religion and Puzzles & Humour Insha'Allaah.

[Al-Hanbali]

:salamext:

I think one thing we could all try to do by the end of Ramadhaan is read the whole Qur'aan at least once; if not in Arabic, then minimum we should aim to read it in a language which we understand. Allaah (subhaanahu wa ta'aala) has commanded us to ponder over the Qur'aan:

"Will they then not contemplate the Qur'an? Or are there locks upon (their) hearts (from understanding it)?" [Surah Muhammad, Ayah 24]

[------]

:salamext:

We should also try and memorise something from the Qur'aan;

[54:32] And We have indeed made the Qur'an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition?

[Muezzin]

Most likely, it will be World Affairs, Comparative Religion and Puzzles & Humour Insha'Allaah.
