القرآن مباشر app❤️😍قال الحافظ ابن رجب رحمه الله:
«واعلم أن المؤمن يجتمع له في شهر رمضان جهادان لنفسه:
1- جهادٌ بالنهار على الصيام،
2- وجهادٌ بالليل على القيام. فمن جمع بين هذين الجهادين، ووفّى بحقوقهما، وصبر عليهما، وُفِّيَ أجره بغير حساب».
Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali said:
“Know that in the month of Ramadan, the believer undertakes two struggles against the self:
A struggle during the day through fasting,
And a struggle during the night through standing in prayer.
Whoever combines these two struggles, fulfills their rights, and remains patient upon them, will be given his reward without measure.”

Fudayl ibn ‘Iyad (رحمه الله) said:
من عرف الله أحبه، ومن عرف الدنيا زهد فيها! والمؤمن لا يشتكي ولا يتضجر، بل يصبر ويحتسب.
“Whoever knows Allah, loves Him, and whoever knows the world, renounces it.
The believer does not complain nor become restless; rather, he is patient and seeks reward.”
فلو كانت الدنيا ذهبًا يفنى، والآخرة خزفًا يبقى، لاختار العاقل خزفًا يبقى على ذهبٍ يفنى، فكيف والدنيا خزفٌ يفنى، والآخرة ذهبٌ يبقى!
“If the world were gold that perishes and the Hereafter were clay that remains, the intelligent person would choose the clay that remains over the gold that perishes. So how then, when the world is clay that perishes and the Hereafter is gold that remains?!”
[Az-Zuhd by Ahmad ibn Hanbal: 2/225]

In fasting, your lips may become dry, but keep your tongue moist with Zikr Ullah

“And Allah loves that His servants ask Him. In fact, the more a servant shows care and devotion to supplication (duʿāʾ), the greater his share and portion of Allah’s love for him.
The Prophet ﷺ even said: ‘There is nothing more honorable to Allah Most High than supplication.’
And he ﷺ also said: ‘Indeed, whoever does not ask Allah, He becomes angry with him.’”

9 Ramadan 🌙
Recite the القرآن, make up for your shortcomings, lengthen your السجود, increase your voluntary prayers, persist in your الدعاء, check on your soul, and make this Ramadan a purification for yourself.

اللَّهُمَّ إنَّهَا أَيَّامًا تَمْضِي سَرِيعًا فَاجْعَلْ لَنَا فِيهَا نَصِيبًا مِنَ الرَّحْمَةِ وَالْمَغْفِرَةِ وَالْعِتْقِ مِنَ النَّارِ
O Allah, these are days that pass quickly, so grant us in them a share of mercy, forgiveness, and freedom from the Fire.
O Allah, these are days that pass quickly, so grant us in them a share of mercy, forgiveness, and freedom from the Fire.
Never make anyone hopeless about the mercy of Allah.
Always encourage people towards goodness and righteousness. Because Shaytan always wants people to lose hope in Allah’s mercy, so they remain trapped in darkness and go further away from the right path.
Hope in Allah brings a person closer to repentance, but despair pushes a person towards misguidance.
Ramadān Muslims
don’t mock people by calling them “ramadan muslims.”
guidance isn’t a flex and faith isn’t a competition.
everyone’s journey looks different and timing belongs to Allāh سبحانه وتعالى.
if someone turns back in ramadan, that’s mercy doing its work.
your role is to help, not humiliate.
encourage, make space, make du‘a.
believers are meant to hold each other up, not push each other away.
today they’re trying. tomorrow they might be steadier than us.
اللهم ثبّت قلوبنا على دينك واهدنا واهدِ بنا.

Rasoolullah ﷺ said:
There was a man who used to commit many sins. When the time of his death came, he said to his sons: When I die, burn my body, then crush it into powder, and scatter it in the wind. By Allah, if my Lord gets hold of me, He will punish me in a way He has never punished anyone. After he died, his family did exactly as he had instructed.
Then Allah commanded the earth:
Collect whatever of him is within you. So the earth gathered him, and suddenly he was standing alive again.
Allah asked him: What made you do this?
He replied: Ya Rabb it was because I feared You. So Allah forgave him. In another narration, he said: Because of fear of You, Ya Rabb.
[Sahih Bukhari 3481]

Ibn al Qayyim رحمه الله said:
The origin of all good and evil that is found in the servant and all that is praised or dispraised, are from Allah, the Donator and the Preventer. He, the Exalted manages His servants according to these two attributes. The true and sincere worshiper will praise Allah when He gives to him and will turn to Allah when He prevents him from something. Allah, the Exalted gives to him in order to be praised and prevents him in order to be asked. The sincere servant will always praise Allah and ask Him.
[Al Fawaid, p. 121]

Ibn al-Qayyim — may Allah have mercy on him — said:
“Describing fasting: It is the restraint of the righteous, the shield of the warriors, and the garden of the virtuous and those brought near (to Allah). It is for the Lord of the worlds among all other deeds.”
📚 | Zad al-Ma'ad (2/34).
“Describing fasting: It is the restraint of the righteous, the shield of the warriors, and the garden of the virtuous and those brought near (to Allah). It is for the Lord of the worlds among all other deeds.”
📚 | Zad al-Ma'ad (2/34).
أنَّ الصِّيامَ سرٌّ بينَ العبدِ وربِّهِ لا يَطَّلِعُ عليهِ غيرُهُ؛ لأنَّهُ مركَّبٌ مِن نيَّةٍ باطنةٍ لا يَطَّلعُ عليها إلَّا الله، وتركِ لتناولِ الشَّهواتِ التي يُسْتَخْفى بتناولِها في العادةِ، ولذلكَ قيلَ: لا تَكْتُبُهُ الحفظةُ. وقيلَ: إنَّهُ ليسَ فيهِ رياءٌ.
Fasting is a secret between the servant and his Lord that no one else can perceive, because it is composed of an inward intention that none knows except Allah, and refraining from indulging in desires which are usually done in private. Therefore, it has been said that the recording angels do not write it down. And it has also been said that there is no showing off in it.

A very important reminder to not be negligent during this season of obedience
«ووالله ما أُصيب العبد ببلاءٍ أعظم من بلاءِ الغفلةِ عن مواسِم الطاعات، ولا خُذل في الدُنيا والآخرة مثل من ضيّع فُرص القُرب إلى الله عز وجلّ حين فُتحت له الأبواب»
“By Allah, a servant is not afflicted with any calamity greater than the calamity of heedlessness during the seasons of worship; and no one is forsaken in this world and the Hereafter like the one who wastes the opportunities to draw near to Allah, Mighty and Majestic, when the doors have been opened for him.”
«ووالله ما أُصيب العبد ببلاءٍ أعظم من بلاءِ الغفلةِ عن مواسِم الطاعات، ولا خُذل في الدُنيا والآخرة مثل من ضيّع فُرص القُرب إلى الله عز وجلّ حين فُتحت له الأبواب»
“By Allah, a servant is not afflicted with any calamity greater than the calamity of heedlessness during the seasons of worship; and no one is forsaken in this world and the Hereafter like the one who wastes the opportunities to draw near to Allah, Mighty and Majestic, when the doors have been opened for him.”
أياما معدودات
The previous Ummah were given very long lifespans, and they had a lot of time to perform good deeds. But the lifespan of this Ummah is generally between fifty to sixty years. But Allah blessed this Ummah with special times in which small deeds bring very great rewards.
For example, the month of Ramadan where even saying Subhan Allah once carries immense reward, far greater than normal days. And this month there is one night, Laylatul Qadr, which is better than a thousand months.
So we must truly value these opportunities. Allah Himself described Ramadan as أياما معدودات meaning only a few counted days. Allah did not say many long days. And from these counted days, ten fasts have already passed, and only twenty remain.
Fasting is a great act of worship, but it is also very delicate. Because of our small carelessness and mistakes, the reward of it can decrease. We must protect our fast from every قول الزور (false or bad speech) and. فعل الزور (wrong actions). We should protect it from bad talk, useless matters, and every sinful action done by our tongue, hands, feet, or eyes. Otherwise, a person may lose the reward of his fasting
Therefore, we must be very careful about this. If we strive sincerely and protect our fasting properly, then In sha Allah, on the Day of Judgment we will meet Allah and receive the complete reward of our fast.

Whoever does not leave false speech and acting upon it, Allah has no need for him leaving his food and drink

Many who fast gain nothing from their fast except hunger.
[Ibn e majah 1690]
Therefore, we must be very careful about this. If we strive sincerely and protect our fasting properly, then In sha Allah, on the Day of Judgment we will meet Allah and receive the complete reward of our fast.
وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌۭ فِيمَآ أَخْطَأْتُم بِهِۦ وَلَـٰكِن مَّا تَعَمَّدَتْ قُلُوبُكُمْ ۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ غَفُورًۭا رَّحِيمًا
(الاحزاب ٥)
There is no sin upon you for what you do by mistake, but the sin is in what your hearts deliberately intend. And Allah is Ever Forgiving and Most Merciful.
Rasoolullah ﷺ said that Allah has forgiven my Ummah for their mistakes, forgetfulness, and for the things they are forced to do. However, a person will be accountable for what he intentionally does with the intention of his heart.

If you read the Qur’an with joy, it increases it; and if you read it with sorrow, it removes it. If you reflect deeply upon its majesty and beauty, its warnings and its promises, your fear will grow, your hope will be refined, and your love will be strengthened.
Through it, you are secure without guards, and rich without wealth.
You rise above every arrogant person and grow gentle with every humble one.
Its people are the People of Allah, and glad tidings to the one who befriends it.
So stir your hearts toward it, and gather your souls around it—seeking profit and reviving your spirits through its recitation, memorization, understanding, and study:
“This is a spring of water to wash in, cool and a (refreshing) drink.”

Abundant Recitation of the Qur’an in Ramadan
The practice of the Salaf – may Allah have mercy on them – was to strive in completing the recitation of the Qur’an many times during the month of Ramadan. Among them were those who completed it every ten days, some every seven days, and some every three days.
It is mentioned in the biography of Imam al-Shafi‘i – may Allah have mercy on him – that he would have sixty completions of the Qur’an in Ramadan.
This is something that those with strong souls, who turn wholeheartedly to Allah can comprehend and achieve. As for those whose strength is weak and whose turning to their Lord is little, they find this far-fetched and consider it a kind of imagination.
It has been authentically reported from ‘Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) that he recited the entire Qur’an in a single rak‘ah.
He was able to do so because of the perfection of his devotion to his Lord, and his absorption in the delight of reciting the Qur’an. It has been narrated from him, with a weak chain, that he said: “If our hearts were pure, they would never tire of the words of our Lord.”
So, when the heart is pure, its delight in the speech of the Lord is greater than its delight in anything else, and this drives one to increase in completing the recitation of the Qur’an.
كان دأب السلف - رحمهم الله تعالى - الاجتهاد في ختم القرآن الكريم مرات عديدة في شهر رمضان.
فقد كان منهم من يختم القرآن الكريم كل عشر، ومنهم من يختمه كل سبع، ومنهم من يختمه كل ثلاث.
وذكر في ترجمة أبي عبد الله الشافعي - رحمه الله تعالى أنه كان له في رمضان ستين ختمة.
وهذا أمر يُمكن لأصحاب النفوس القوية المقبلة على الله عز وجل أن يدركوه ويعقلوه ،أما من ضعفت قواه ، وقل إقباله على مولاه فإنه يستبعد هذا ويجعله ضرباً من الخيال.
وقد صح عن عثمان رضي الله عنه أنه قام بالقرآن كله في ركعة واحدة.
وإنما قوي على ذلك لكمال إقباله على ربه سبحانه وتعالى و اشتغاله بتلذذه بقراءة القرآن الكريم ، وقد روى عنه بسند فيه ضعف أنه قال : لو طهرت قلوبنا ما شبعت من كلام ربنا.
فإذا كان القلب طاهر كان تلذذه بكلام الرب سبحانه وتعالى أعظم من تلذذه بغيره، فيحمله هذا على الاستكثار من الختمات.

A believer never settles into stagnation, every day should bring some form of improvement in character, faith, knowledge or action. Al-Hasan al-Basrī (d.110H) said:
من استوى يوماه فهو مغبون، ومن كان يومه شراً من أمسه فهو محروم، ومن لم يكن في مزيد فهو في نقصان
"If today is no better than yesterday, you're losing out. If today is worse than yesterday, you're truly deprived. And if you're not moving forward (in progress), you're quietly falling behind (in regress)."

From a Khutbah at the Grand Mosque in Mecca:
«ما أسرع الليالي والأيام، وما أعجل تصرُّم الشهور والأزمان، فها هو شهر رمضان قد جاوز المنتصف، والموفق من كان مشمّرًا وبالجدّ اتّصف، عازمًا على اغتنام ما بقي، فتفطنوا لشهركم فقد مضى أكثره، وبقيَ منه تاجه وجوهره!
“How swiftly the nights and days pass, and how quickly the months and times slip away. The month of Ramadan has already passed its midpoint. The successful one is the person who has rolled up their sleeves and is marked by seriousness and determination, resolved to make the most of what remains. So be mindful of your month, for most of it has already gone, and what remains is its crown and its jewel.
فها هي عشره الأواخر قد أشرفت، وبخيراتها وبركاتها أقبلت، عشرُ المغفرة والنفحات، والعتق والرحمات، وإجابة الدعوات، ومضاعفة الحسنات، وتكفير السيئات، فيا فوز من تداركها بصالح العمل، وعوّض ما فاته من نقصٍ وخلل».
Now the last ten nights have arrived, bringing their goodness and blessings—ten nights of forgiveness, gentle breezes of mercy, freedom from the Fire, compassion and mercy, answered prayers, multiplied good deeds, and the wiping away of sins. How great is the success of the one who catches them with righteous actions and makes up for whatever shortcomings or deficiencies may have occurred earlier.
