“Sometimes Allaah removes everyone from you so it’s just you and Him. It can be hard to comprehend that at first, but that’s why that first prostration when in despair is actually so blissful.”‎

May Allah عز وجل grant us good health and imaan to get closer to Him in this blessed month, ameen.

As we all know, fasting is obligatory in Ramadan, but in essence Ramadan isn't just a month of refraining from food and drinks, but it's a month that's supposed to instill in us taqwa - being conscious of Allah - through our fasting. So, bi idhnillah (by the permission of Allah) this is the perfect time to build and get back into habits you want to incorporate into your life.

If you've slacked off in prayer, then let this month be the incentive to get back into it. If the Qur'an has become a forgotten book or a neglected app, let this month in which the Qur'an was revealed in, be the time where you reinvent your relationship with it, even if it is 1 verse a day. Develop the habit of charity no matter how small the amount. Cut down on vain talks, distance yourself from sins and bad habits a bit. And don't treat your fast as something optional, inconvenient, that can be ignored or broken at the slightest reasons. It is what distances you from Jahannam.

Let this Ramadan not be a temporary fix, but a slow and silent dedication to take 1 step towards reforming our lives and ourselves permanently, for the sake of Allah. Because Ramadan truly shows us what we're capable of, and brings to light our potential. May Allah make us sincere, ameen ♡
