MashaAllah! Ramadan is here again inshaAllah. May Almighty Allah spare our lives to witness many more. Ameen. But how prepare are you for this?
It was related that the past predecessors would take the month of Rajab as the clearing period just like in farm practice when you have to prepare the land for the seeds you would be sowing season before the raining season. They would clear the fasts they owe, prepare their mindset and body for another and with enthusiasm, pray to Allah to witness the upcoming. The would begin to sow during the month of Sha'aban: just like offering Nawafils (Voluntary prayers) before the obligatory prayers, they would fast some days within the month of Sha'aban and rest the others, getting their bodies and souls together in preparation for the Holy month of Ramadan. When the month of Ramadan comes they water the planted seeds with much if Ibadats. They would increase in their worship and closeness to Allah , taking every advantage of the blessed month. The reaping of these seeds comes towards the end and after the Ramadan, when you are rest assured that inshaAllah you are well rewarded by Allah here and hereafter.
These are the ways of the past predecessors. So what are your own preparations for this coming blessed month of Ramadan? How are you planning to take full advantage of the month of mercy?
Brothers and sisters,the month of forgiveness is here again. Let's be well prepared to be of those that would be fully rewarded.
Please do share your plans and ideas in the comment box before, may be someone might be inspired and you be rewarded twice for calling unto the righteous path and encouraging goodness.s
May Almighty Allah accept our Ibadah.
Barakallahu fikum.
