 Welcome and Respect Ramadan Mubarak

The arrival of Ramadan occurs when the moon is visible on the 30th or 29th day of Sha'ban. Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic year, it is called the month of Ramadan. Allah Almighty has prescribed fasting for Muslims this month. It is also the month of the revelation of the Qur'an, and it is also called the month of the Qur'an because of its great attachment to the Qur'an. In the same month, there is a night whose worship is better than the worship of a thousand months. Even if he finds this month, let him observe its fasts" (Al-Baqarah: 185). Hazrat Abu Hurairah narrates that the Messenger of Allah, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: "When the month of Ramadan comes, the gates of heaven are opened. (In another tradition, the gates of Paradise are opened) and the gates of Hell are closed (Sahih Bukhari 1800, Muslim 1069). From Friday to two Fridays and from one Ramadan to the next Ramadan are the sins of ``Risa, which are performed when major sins are avoided (Sahih Muslim). He said: "When it is the first night of Ramadan." That is, the wicked and rebellious jinn are bound, while the gates of Hell are closed, none of them are opened, and the gates of Paradise are opened, none of them are closed. It may be that while a preacher proclaims, "O seeker of good, go forth (in good deeds) and O seeker of evil, desist from evil." And then Allah Almighty Every night of Ramadan many people are freed from hell! What a great joy for us is that compared to other days, the reward of worship in Ramadan increases by many sins. )

In this blessed month, Allah Ta'ala has revealed immense and countless blessings on Muslims spiritually (1) This is the blessed month in which Allah Ta'ala has mercy on His servants for the purpose of guiding them. In the world, through Jibreel Amin, the Prophet (peace be upon him) began the commandment revealed to the heart of Athar (2) while dividing this month into three ten years, this good news was given that the first ten years is of mercy, and the second ten year is of forgiveness. And the third ten years is to grant freedom from hell (Mishkaat al-Masabih p. 174) (3) According to traditions, during this blessed month, every day at the time of breaking the fast, one million people are given freedom from hell, who are in hell due to their bad deeds. Also, when the last day of Ramadan comes, the number of people who have been freed from hell on that last day from the 1st of Ramadan is given to the believers in that one day to be freed from hell.
