#ramadan countdown

Ramadan is more commercialized in Pakistan than Eid, and Eid is the actual holiday. Ramadan is a religious month that we fast in, not really a celebration. Insane.

Anyway for my non-Muslim friends, make a Muslim in your community happy by taking them out to a halal restaurant for Iftar. Ask them about how they practice Ramadan. Buy them Krispy Kreme for dessert. Be like that one guy on TikTok who woke up at 4 to prepare suhoor for his roommate. Learn more about Islam. Look out for the Muslims in your community. And for Allah’s sake, don’t stop talking about Palestine.

to the Muslims, Ramadan Mubarak, may your days be filled with peace and prosperity from Allah, may He answer all your prayers for this year.

im not doing mentally well (as per usual) but here's to another ramadan- another chance at change and tawbah.

very late to my ramadan prep, but better late than never. i have to prepare dua's and find religious books that will lay out what i need to do during the month so i can make a definitive checklist. taking any and all book recs/ ramadan planner recs pls and thank u.

things im gonna have to juggle:

studying inorganic & physical chemistry

fasting

reading (leisure)

religious studies (dua, quran)

writing (might put that one on the back burner)

iftar (you know im gonna be beside my mom every single evening helping out)

"So the first thing is that everything in life is there to mature you."

tomorrow Friday, February 23 will be the 13th of shabaan, which means the ayaame bidh (days of the full moon) fast will fall on:

✨ Friday, February 23

✨ Saturday, February 24

✨ Sunday, February 25

It was narrated that Abu Dharr ‏رضي الله تعالى عنهsaid: The Messenger ﷺ of Allaah ﷻ said to me: “If you fast any part of the month, then fast the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth.”

Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (761); al-Nasaa’i (2424).

This hadeeth was classed as hasan by al-Tirmidhi, and al-Albaani agreed with him in Irwa’ al-Ghaleel, 947.
