Ramadan Central

Alhamdulillah, praise be to Allah, the blessed month of fasting and spiritual reflection is nearly upon us. Muslims around the world are preparing, whether it is physically, mentally, or spiritually to make the best of the holy month. 

With Ramadan fast approaching, it is time to prepare ourselves for this sacred month of spiritual rejuvenation and devotion to Allah.

Unlike any other time of the year, Ramadan sets most of us in a sacred ambiance. As the crescent moon heralds its arrival, Muslims worldwide embark on a journey of self-reflection, devotion, and renewal.

This Ramadan, one of my personal goals was to build more dhikr, remembrance of Allah, into my daily routines.

Allah, the Entirely Merciful, has given us the gift of the Quran. During Ramadan, we should take time to reflect on the significance of that glorious gift. We should also express gratitude to the One Who bestowed it.
