đ â Day 17: Intentions
Assalamu aleykum warahmatullahi wabarakatu all
Ramadan is approaching us faster and faster Allahumma balighna Ramadan.Rabbana taqabbal minna, innaka anta sameeul aleem.
One of the best things we can do as we prepare for this blessed month is to set our intentions right. The Prophet ï·ș said:
"Actions are by intentions, and every person will have what they intended."
Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim (1907)
So make sincere intentions now:
Intend to read Quran consistently this Ramadan, even if it is one page after every prayer.
Intend to give charity regularly, even if it is small.
Intend to help someone in need.
Intend to pray tahajjud, even if it is just two rakahs.
Intend to make sincere dua.
Intend to stay away from sins and distance yourself from what displeases Allah.
But remember, do not just say the intention for the sake of reward. Mean it. Let it come from your heart. Allah sees your sincerity before He sees your actions.
By sincerely wanting to do good and striving to stay away from evil, you are already preparing your heart for Ramadan.
May Allah help us purify our intentions, increase us in good, keep us away from wrongdoing, and accept from us. Rabbana taqabbal minna, innaka anta sameeul aleem.
