Alḥamdulillah, it truly is a great blessing of Allah ﷻ that He has given us the opportunity to once again experience the month of Ramadan. All of us know that the month of Ramadan is extremely special and unique. It’s the month of fasting, praying, reading the Quran, patience, taqwa, charity, generosity, dua and remembrance. It’s the month in which we’re all trying to get closer to our Creator. It’s the month in which the gates of Paradise are opened, the gates of hell are closed and the devils are chained up. The month in which the breath of a fasting person is sweeter to Allah than the smell of musk. The month in which 100,000 people are freed from hellfire every single night. The month in which the reward for our good deeds is multiplied without any measurement. The month in which there is a night that is equal to a thousand months. The reason why this month is so special, the reason why Allah ﷻ has placed these unique opportunities in it is because this is the month Allah ﷻ chose to reveal the Quran. This is the month of the Quran. “The month of Ramadan is the one in which the Quran was revealed as guidance for mankind, and as clear signs that show the right way and distinguish between right and wrong.
