Subhan Allah, virtuous month of Ramadan will be upon us. As fast as it arrives, it would be gone.
Reaching Ramadan is a great blessing from Allah (SWT). Prophet Muhammad (SAW) used to give his Companions the glad tidings of the arrival of Ramadan and explain its virtues, the opportunity for repent and the great reward that Allah has prepared for those who fast and who spend the night in prayer.
Ramadan can be most beneficial if we plan ahead and set some goals. Personal reflection on the year passed since the last Ramadan is a must. Did we implement more Quran into our lives, did we increase our sadaqah, did we get rid of bad habits or acquire good ones are some questions to ask. Set some goals and start working on them in Sha'ban, like a training ground.
From the team here at NZF New Zealand, we wish you a blessed Sha'ban and pray that you all reach the beloved month of Ramadan, ameen.
