On the
concluding day of Ramadan, the noble Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) conveyed:
"O
people, a month of immense honor and blessings is about to descend upon you.
This is the month in which a single night is more virtuous than a thousand
months."
In this
sacred month, Allah has mandated fasting for His devotees. It is the month in
which the Qur'an was revealed, alongside other heavenly scriptures. Prophet
Ibrahim (A.S.) received the divine scrolls on the first or third of Ramadan,
Prophet Dawud (A.S.) was granted the Zabur on the 12th or 18th, the Torah was bestowed
upon Prophet Musa (A.S.) on the 16th, and Prophet Isa (A.S.) received the Injil
on the 12th or 13th of the month. Thus, Ramadan is the exalted month that
witnessed the revelation of the Qur'an, a period saturated with unparalleled
spiritual eminence, divine favor, and profound wisdom, which purifies and
refines the human soul.
The act of
fasting, done purely for the sake of Allah, elevates the soul, allowing it to
soar into the celestial expanses and to touch the heights of divine
transcendence. This blessed month was the time when the angel Jibril would
recite the Qur'an to the Prophet (P.B.U.H.), and the Prophet (P.B.U.H.) would
attentively listen to the divine message.
It is
essential for the faithful to recite the Qur'an with deliberate contemplation
and understanding. Such an approach fosters a deeper and more intimate
relationship with the Divine.
Moreover,
one must engage in acts of charity and compassion towards the poor, the
widowed, the orphaned, and the needy with an open heart. The Messenger of
Allah, peace be upon him, demonstrated exceptional generosity throughout this
month, setting a powerful example for his followers.
It is our
duty to follow in his footsteps and extend assistance to those in need, thus
embodying the noble spirit of Ramadan. We must commit ourselves to this
principle, ensuring that we actively participate in the welfare of our brothers
and sisters in need, particularly during this blessed month.
Let us also
commit to emulating the revered practice of the Messenger of Allah (P.B.U.H.)
by offering comprehensive assistance to our impoverished brethren, in alignment
with his noble example.
