The Official Ramadan Thread. Ramadan 1430 A.H/August 2009

Since fasting is no ordinary act of worship, the potential rewards are exceptional. The Prophet (SalAllahu Alayhi WaSalam) said :

Allah says, 'All the deeds of the son of Adam are for him: the good deeds will be multiplied ten times to seven hundred times, except fasting, which is for Me and I will reward for it accordingly. He abandons his (sexual) desire, food and drink for Me.'
[Sahih Muslim]

Are we those who are ready for the exceptional reward?

FiAmaaniAllah

Bro ramadan is the month of Quran , Try to read lots n not just read , try to ponder over its meanings , its beautiful

Ibn Abi Mulaykah narrated:
"'Ikrimah bin Abi Jahl used to press the Mushaf to his face and cry, saying: "The Book of my Lord! The Words of my Lord!""

[Reported by 'Abdullah bin al-Mubarak in 'al-Jihad'; # 56]

Lots n lots of repentence n making istighfaar , pray at night , n seek knowledge , knowledge about this month n the bounties of this month n know what a big loser is the one who is blessed with this month yet is not forgiven,

For me one unforgetable ramadan would have to be 2006 when i prayed at the mosque where Salah Bu Khatir leads in ramadan , i got to pray behind him the whole ramadan n the way he recited quran that year was just amazing , n i had just got back from Umrah like a couple of months before ramadan , so AlhumdolILLAh i benefited a lot.

Unfortunately all the stuff of salah bu khatir like videos n audio on youtube or his complete Mushaf on the net is older , the videos are like 2005 or even 04 n the Mushaf is pretty old, last few years n specially 2006 was just amazing.
 
So when are people keeping the first fast? Ramadan Calenders must have been printed in your masjid?
 
:sl: Yuup the mosque set the date at 22 august . Soo excited ;D :wa:
 
:sl:

^I can't wait either... everytime I think of Ramadhaan, I get butterflies :X

Brothers and Sisters,

Remember! Ramadhan is about attaining Taqwa and not hunger!

FiAmaaniAllah
 
it starts on Saturday, 3 more days to go and Muslims start behaving like Muslims and lets hope this time it doesn't end with Ramadaan.
 
:sl: Yuup the mosque set the date at 22 august . Soo excited ;D :wa:

saturday 22nd? Our mosque has it roughly on friday

I hope everyone starts and finishes the same time, I can't stand it here when the odd pakistani masjid does it different to everyone else

In birmingham do all the masjids start and finish on same days?
 
Insha-allah we will all enjoy out ramadhaan in the right way. eeerm not sure if I'm comming here in ramadhaan, anyone else?
 
I hope it is not an issue again when we start and when we do eid. It is like that every year, may Allaah guide us all.

Brothers and Sisters!

The fasting person's dua when he breaks his fast is not reject! [Ibn Majah]

And about suhoor: None of you should miss it even if it is a sip of water since Allah and his angels bless those who have the dawn meal! [Ahmad]

So please wake up for the dawn meal to eat and makes lots of dua throughout the day. InshaAllah!

Allahumma Inni as'aluka brirahmatika al-lati wasi-at kulla shayin an tagfira li.....O Allah, i ask you by Your mercy which envelopes all things, that You forgive me. [Ibn Abi Mulaykah]

Allahumma Ameen!!!

May Allah reward u n bless you , I believe that ramadan all over the world can n cannot start n end on the same day , no doubt coz we are supposed to start the fast by the sight of the moon n do the eid by the sight of the moon n that can differ in diffrent parts of the world , but in the same country n even the same city or neighbouring countries it has to be on the same day , subhanAllah , its crazy how one city or one neighbourhood is having eid while another is fasting , we should fear Allah , SEEK KNOWLEDGE , SEEEK knowledge , stop follwoing our desires n opinions, it is not possible that in the same country on same city we differ on eid n ramadan , we need to check ourselfes. If some one in our city or country has spotted the moon n government declared eid we should be with the jamaah.

check an article by the name of Ramadan the month of unity that i posted in this thread a few days ago or so , its important n inshahAllah u will benefut bro.

Plus u are promoting salah al haajat , but u should get the facts about it , there is no such salah proved from the prophet sala lahu alihi wa sallam n his companions n Allah knows best.
 
^come on now, this point can he argued forever. I mean the hadeeth says to sight the moon, so that's what u gotta do. If your country doesn't sight the moon but starts Ramadan, should you just abandon the hadeeth and do the wrong thing?

And also what counts as local? Like America is HUGE with 300+million people, the whole thing is not your locality. No way.
 
AsSalamOAlaikum WaRehmatuAllah WaBarkatuhu

Brothers and Sisters!

Please let us not concentrate on the issues of starting Ramadhan on different day. Concentrate on our unity...

Let use think about the big task ahead, the real task ahead. Think about this......

........It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “There may be people who fast and get nothing from their fast except hunger, and there may be those who pray qiyaam and get nothing from their qiyaam but a sleepless night."

Do we want our fast and prayers to be accepted?

Think about this.....

.......It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) ascended the minbar and said: “Ameen,ameen, ameen.It was said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah, you ascended the minbar and said, ‘Ameen, ameen, ameen.He said: “Jibreel (peace be upon him) came to me and said:If Ramadaan comes and a person is not forgiven, he will enter Hell and Allaah will cast him far away. Say Ameen.’ So I said Ameen.He said: ‘O Muhammad, if both or one of a person’s parents are alive and he does not honour them and he dies, he will enter Hell and Allaah will cast him far away. Say Ameen.’ So I said Ameen. He said: ‘If you are mentioned in a person’s presence and he does not send blessings upon you and he dies, he will enter Hell and Allaah will cast him far away. Say Ameen.’ So I said Ameen.”

We need to get our intentions right, we need to be proactive throughout the month. We are all sinful, we all need to get our sins forgiven. Come on brothers and sisters....For surely the reward will come inshaAllah
....

............This month inshaAllah will be the start of something unforgetable!!!!!!!

FiAmaaniAllah
