WHY TO PLAN FOR RAMADAN ?

Salam our Brothers and Sisters, Ramadan is coming soon. Time to increase our knowledge on Islam in Ramadan. Could you please polish our Quran recitation and understanding skills, practice fasting, find time to pray extras, such as Tahajjud prayers (praying more and make lots of dua, ziikir) and repentance, set aside some wealth for charity, calculate how much zakat to pay etc. May this Ramadan be much better for us than previous ones. Amin Ya Robal Alamin.





KEEP CALM AND PREPARE FOR RAMADAN.

Salam Our Brothers and Sisters. The following are some tips to help us prepare for Ramadan. 


1. Ask Allah for facilitation to benefit from the blessings of Ramadan daily, from now onward. 


2. Make a firm determination to abstain from all sins. Especially those committed by the eyes, ears and tongue. 


3. Try to free as much time as possible from work and other commitments for pure worship (ibadah).


4. Reschedule non essential appointments till after or before Ramadan. Finish with all Ramadan and Eid shopping prior to the sighting of the crescent. 


5. Make special effort to follow as many Sunnah as possible in daily activities. Learn these and memorize dua for particular occasions before hand. 


6. Review the essential fiqh relating to fasting, taraweeh and other Ramadan related issues. 7. Make a practical and doable time table for daily activities.The point to remember is that in Ramadan acts of primary form of worships (i.e. salah, dhikr, tilawat, etc.) are to be increased. These lead to an increasing direct relationship with Allah SWT.



RAMADAN IS COMING

The holy month of Ramadan
For all Muslims has begun.
Praising Allah through the day,
From dawn to dusk we fast and pray.
We pay zakah (charity) for those in need,
Trying hard to do good deeds.

When the sun has set, and day is done-
I'll break this chain, but only one.
By the end of Ramadan, this whole chain will be all gone!
It's time for Eid and lots of fun!!!
