prayer

In this first week of Shaban, the month of Ramadan is on the mind. As with any important endeavor, there is a payoff in making preparations well in advance. In fact, the exercise has been likened to the efforts that are made to prepare for the arrival of a special guest.

Eid is so important for Muslims religiously and culturally that more people come out to pray than at any time else in the year. But alas this Eid we will not be able to pray together and meet people who we have not met in a long time, we will offer Eid prayer at home.

One of the more daunting tasks during Ramadan with the long days and short nights is getting enough sleep. Creating a schedule that is able to balance work, prayer, and sleep during the weekdays is essential to make the most of Ramadan.

The Prophet use to make dua in Sajdah not just tasbeeh as we do in obligatory prayers. He used to cry in Sajdah. He would spend an extended amount of his time in Sajdah.
