(Inna anzalna fi laylatil qadr)

Indeed, we sent the Quran down during the Night of Al-Qadr

(Wama adraka ma laylatul qadr)

And what can make you know what is the Night of Al-Qadr

(Laylatul qadri khayrum min alfi shahr)

The Night of Al-Qadr is better than a thousand months

(Tanaz zalul malaa ikatu war ruyu fi maa bi izni rabihim min amr)
The angels and the Spirit descend therein by permission of their lord for every matter

(Salamun hiya hatta matla il fajr)

Peace it is until the emergence of dawn

From these verses we can see and understand the importance of the Quran
and Ramadan.

Islam’s foundation is based on 5 pillars and fasting is one of them. These

pillars are also a requirement of a believer and a true muslim. A true muslim is
required to observe them with upmost devotion.

Ramadan is the month of the Quran and not only the recitation of it. In the
Arabic language, yes, recitation is important. In fact, it’s very important but you also
must try hard to understand the Quran and the message it holds from Allah (SWT).

We have to try and make people understand the word of their almighty
creator. We have to make it so that instead of giving their attention to all the other
unimportant books they give their undivided attention to the Quran. We have to make
it so that after our death we can say that we have read the holy book of Allah (SWT)
and that we have understood it.

Allah sent the Quran down to us to guide us towards the right path. To show
us that there is only one god and that god is he, Allah (SWT). Only one religion and
that religion is our religion, Islam.

This book can and will change your life. I can guarantee you that. It will raise
you high without a single doubt.

The recitation of the Quran is highly emphasized during the month of

Ramadan, this is because the Quran was revealed during Ramadan. There are duas
that you should recite before starting your fast and before breaking your fast.
(Bi-sawmi ghadin nawaitu min shahri ramadan)
I intend to keep the fast for tomorrow in the month of Ramadan

When you recite this Dua, you are saying that you will try your hardest, your
absolute hardest to keep your fast until the sun sets and you hear the Maghrib
adhan.

(Allahumma laka sumtu wa bika amantu wa’ala rizq-ika aftartu)

Oh Allah! I fasted for you. In you do I believe, and with your provision do I break my
fast.

This is saying that you have fasted for Allah and you believe in him completely
and now you are breaking your fast for him and with his provisions.

Allahu Akbar, this is the book of Allah (SWT)

Today, we should make a promise to ourselves to do this and make it the

light, the noor of our hearts and the coolness of our eyes and those who do this will
understand it, read it, and try to act on it. Let us all be supporters.
