Ramadan Mubarak ....





So again the Holy month of Ramadan is just a few days from now.
  
The month of Ramadan is that in which was revealed the Quran; a guidance for mankind, 
and clear proofs of the guidance, and the criterion (of right and wrong). 

And whosoever of you is present, let him fast the month, 
and whosoever of you is sick or on a journey, 
a number of other days. 
Allah desires for you ease; He desires not hardship for you; 
and that you should complete the period, 
and that you should magnify Allah for having guided you, 
and that perhaps you may be thankful.

Thus, via the Quran, Muslims are informed that Muhammad (pbuh)
first received revelations in the lunar month of Ramadan. 
Therefore, the month of Ramadan is considered to be the most sacred month of the months 
of the lunar Islamic calendar, the recording of which began with the Hijra.



The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

"Save yourself from hellfire 
by giving even half a date-fruit in charity."
